Jesus clearly explains that the "door" will be shut on "EVILDOERS". That it is "EVILDOERS" that will not be saved. Those who continue to sin will have the "door" shut on them and will not be saved. If that was your understanding, then you could have just said so, instead of posting all that nonsense.
Jesus discuss what is the current state of everyone who misses Him. We all stand before
God condemn already, only a few find Him, not everyone who says Lord, Lord, is going
to be right with God, not because they don't know His name, but they didn't find Him.
To quote a passage:
18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. 19 And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. 20 For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. 21 But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”
Originally posted by @kellyjayIn the passages I cited from Matthew 7 and Luke 13, Jesus made it clear that the dividing line between those who are saved and those who are not saved is whether or not an individual ceases to sin. This sheds light on what Jesus means by the "way" and "life" in John 14:6.

I didn't leave that was you, I'm not the one shutting the door on a huge portion of my life
that is you. I could talk about my time before Christ and after I got saved my whole life is
God's you...well you got your labels to protect.

Empty. Christ is not in you.
Oh, you talk a good game, but do you believe that Jesus is the Son of God? Is he your Savior?
Do you believe in a God at all?

In fact I see all avatars here as relevant.
A tree shall be known by its fruits.
Those who bring love and knowledge into their lives have some tasty fruit.
Those who continue to live in fear of other men, who wait for death, who cannot see the good, who give into temptation; those that will not make themselves poor in spirit and think they know all about spirituality on a public forum shall be plagued by the troubles of the world.
Our spiritual paradigms should fit together like jigsaw pieces .

I suggest you humble yourself and engage in genuine dialogue with ToO.
It's ok to be wrong but its dangerous to not rectify it

Originally posted by @kellyjayWell, you are deflecting and dodging a lot for someone who claims not to be shutting a door. I am not the slightest bit interested in dissecting beliefs I no longer hold. Go find some atheist somewhere on a Christian website who wants to indulge you in that way. The door is completely open as far as my current beliefs are concerned, as indeed yours should be too. Stop running away.

Are you stalling for time?
And I said "Is he YOUR Savior?" Emphasis on YOU.
You still think Jesus was "just a man", don't you?
