Scriptures
Judges 16:1-3
One day Samson went to Gaza, where he saw a prostitute. He went in to spend the night with her.
The people of Gaza were told, ‘Samson is here!’ So, they surrounded the place and lay in wait for him all night at the city gate. They made no move during the night, saying, ‘At dawn we’ll kill him.’
But Samson lay there only until the middle of the night. Then he got up and took hold of the doors of the city gate, together with the two posts, and tore them loose, bar and all. He lifted them to his shoulders and carried them to the top of the hill that faces Hebron.
Matthew 16:18-19
Jesus said, “And I say to you that you are Peter (or Petros ‘Little rock’), and upon this rock (or Petra ‘big rock’ meaning Jesus) I will build my church; and the gates of Hades shall not overpower it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
I will build my church; and the gates of Hades shall not overpower it.”
Joel 2:28-29
It will come about after this
That I will pour out My Spirit on all mankind; And your sons and daughters will prophesy, Your old men will dream dreams, Your young men will see visions.
“Even on the male and female servants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days.”
