My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. Revelation 3:20 (NKJV)
For many are called, but few are
chosen. Matthew 22:14; 20:16 (NKJV)

you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him
who knocks it will be opened. Matthew 7:7,8 cf Luke 11:9,10 (NJKV)

come to Me, and the one who come to Me I will certainly not cast out. Jn 6:37 (NASB)
And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that of all that He
has given to Me I lose nothing, but raise it up on the last day. For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who
