Matthew 25:10

Now while they went to buy, the bridegroom came: and they who were ready, went in with him to the marriage, and the door was shut.

And the door was shut. After the final day of judgment, there will be no room for prayers and good works. (St. Jerome) --- For, after having received those within its walls, who have put on in some degree the nature of the angels, the gate to the city of bliss is closed for ever. (St. Augustine)
