Gate Beautiful




















After the garden tomb, we headed over to the East Gate(Gate Beautiful). There we sang some worship, shared a little bit out of how much boldness we can now have in His new more glorious work through His Son Jesus Christ, and meditated on our Messiah one day going through those very gates. The funniest thing is all the tombs around the gate, not only at thegate but even across the gate at the Mount of Olives. Mount of Olives graves and Christians and the East Gate are Arab graves. It's funny to see because the ones on the Mount are so that they could be the first to rise in the second coming, and the Arab ones are to stop the Messiah from walking through(since the law said to not step on the dead or graves in some sort...dont know all the details). It's just all funny to see that some think they can stop him, even if the couldn't alive...they're still trying in their deaths. He's unstoppable, nothing can hold Him back, and in us...nothing should hold us back from the praises of our hearts showing His people His love, in humbleness and in truth.
