[Dr. Eckleburg]

As to who or what will overcome the gates of hell, Jesus is speaking of Himself, the power of God (I Cor 1:24) the brightness of the Father's glory (Hebrews 1:3) by Whom and for Whom everything exists (Colossians 1) Indeed, Hell itself is thrown into the Lake of Fire in Revelation 20.

AMEN!!!

"For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God." -- Ephesisans 3:14-19
