Dr. J. Vernon McGee, Th.D.
Sanctification and Justification
Synopsis: Have you ever stopped to think of what we have in Christ? Christ has been made unto us, He’s been made sanctification, justification. I started out in a church as a boy working for my salvation. I didn’t do very well with that. May I say to you, Christ is my justification. And then I got saved and then I tried to work to be good. I didn’t do very well at that either. And then I found out that Christ has been made unto me sanctification. May I say I’ve got everything in Him. Friends, you can’t improve on that, can you? At least, I don’t think you can. Why, my friend, I got it all in Christ.

About Church of the Open Door
Built in 1914, the 4000-seat Church of the Open Door was conceived by R. A. Torrey who had come to Los Angeles to start a Bible institute (now known as Biola University) similar to Moody Bible Institute. Other pastors have included Louis T. Talbot (1932–1948) and J. Vernon McGee (1949–1970). The church is strictly non-denominational, though Evangelical. Its mission was to reach the lost of Los Angeles, which was reflected in the name ‘Church of the Open Door’ based on two passages of Scripture:
“I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.” - Jesus Christ, John 10:9 KJV
“I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.” - Jesus Christ, Revelation 3:8 KJV
