Dr. J. Vernon McGee, Th.D.
Do You Know Him?
Transcript: If you’ve come in here with burdens and problems, and you’re overwhelmed today and you’re discouraged; you have no hope. May I say to you this morning, He died, He was buried, He was raised that you might have life. He showed Himself alive by many infallible proofs. He says to you, “Trust Me. Bring your burdens.” And that power that raised Him from the dead can work in your life, can work in your heart, bringing salvation—bringing a solution to the problems of life, lifting the burdens, renewing a right Spirit within you, and giving you eternal life. Do you know Him today?

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
