"The door of the Kingdom is already open..."

Jesus Christ the Son of God the Savior (source)

 
Christ became man and called to repentance robbers and harlots. Repent, my soul! The door of the Kingdom is already open, and the transformed pharisees, publicans and adulterers are seizing it ahead of you.
-from the Great Canon of St. Andrew of Crete

Through the prayers of our Holy Fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us and save us! Amen!
