Door Nativity Scene

Door Nativity Scene

The open door:

See, your king comes to you, righteous and having salvation.
Zechariah 9,9b

Lift up your heads, O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors of the world, that the King of glory may come in.
Psalm 24,7



Video YouTube: "Macht hoch die Tür die Tor macht weit"


The Word of the Crib:

See I have placed befor you an open door...
Revalation 3,8

This is said by He who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no-one can shut, and what he shuts no-one can open." And this is said to someone, who "has little strength, yet has kept my word and has not denied my name.
Revelation 3,7-8

He who gives this promise is he who can say of himself:
Do not be afraid. I am the first and the last: I am the Living One; I was dead, and behold I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hell.
Revelation 1, 17 - 18

And this is the same Lord who as the child and as the Resurrected One stands at the door saying:
Here I am! I stand at the door and knock.
Revelation 3, 20

...ooooh, there is someone standing at the door.
Not stamping soldier's boots ready to kick the door in. And not rifle butts yearning to fling it aside. And also no door to door salesman, no beggar or thief aiming to enter without permission.
There is someone waiting - at the door - patiently, quietly.
It is the Lord of this whole, wide world.
And behind the door we crouch with all our sins, our problems, our worries and duties, with our troubles and sorrows, with all the disorder of our lives.
Why don't we open the door?
If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.
Revelation 3, 20

The answer to that should be:

Come, oh my Lord Jesus Christ,
The door of my heart is open to you ...


Nuremberg May 2002


PRINTVERSION (PDF)

In front of the door are on the left a piece of black basalt rock from the Sea of Galilee and on the right two pieces of limestone from the pastures near Bethlehem.
