This is the first message in a new series about events in scripture that were so stupendous that they changed everything. The Resurrection of Jesus was obviously an event that changed everything. As the result of the resurrection of Jesus, Christians no longer have to live in fear because Jesus has all authority in heaven and in earth and He promised that He would always be with us, even to the end of time.

The sixth gate of the City of God is named after Dan, whose name means "judge." This gate reminds us that Jesus is our righteous Judge. That's bad news if you're a sinner, but great news if your sins have been forgiven.
