Gen28 Jacob laid his rock on a pillow/ and showed him Jacob's ladder
Luz means separation of departure
He changed the separation between the rock and the gate of heaven
Why does Jesus say the gates of Hell?
A gate metaphor is a transition of reality
The realities of Hell will not override my church
Our prayer less ness you can be confronted with a temptation
Jacob means “Replacer”
Luz was the city’s name…meaning a "place of separation|
Jacob renamed city Luz to the new city of his rock pillow Bethel or “God's House”
He replaced Essau as the first born
Going to church is our birthright
Going to work and excusing yourself as selling our birthright (Essau)
God has no respect for quitters
Quitters bring themselves to pity when they could have had blessing
The Gate call belonging to the right time, and season flourishing
Abortion is a gate of hell
Gen28 V17 How awesome is this place the house of God and the gate of Heaven
The rock pillow was the house of God
Jacob renamed the place to Bethel was the rock pillow
A true marker of significance
Petra/Petros
Upon this rock…He didn’t say upon this revelation I will build my church
And the gates (realities) will not prevail against my church
Satan has created his own delusion to pervert God’s reality
Every Hebrew name has a meaning
The very last thing Nehemiah had to do is set the gates of Jerusalem in place
The gates again represent a "change of reality"
His enemies tried to kill him even though Nehemiah had legal right to be there
The enemy tried to lure him away to from Nehemiah's purpose which was to rebuild the temple and reset the gates
