Dr. J. Vernon McGee, Th.D.


How To Approach God

Transcript: My friend, you’re not going to rush into the presence of God. You can’t rush into His presence. He just doesn’t permit that. If you come to the Father through Christ, that’s the only way He can be approached today. And you never get in there because of who you are—you get in there because you’re in Christ. “No man cometh to the Father, but by Me.” The Lord Jesus made that very clear. And if we’re His child, we can come with boldness, but we come to a throne of grace. If you attempt to come to God today on any other basis than the grace of God that’s been extended to you in Christ, friend you won’t make it. He just doesn’t let you in on any other basis.

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
Study God’s Holy Word Of Truth Dispensationally

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that
needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
