The phrase 'gates of Hell' only occurs once in scripture. <ref>[[Mt 16:18]] And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.</ref>the [[Rule - Rigorous]] prevents us from forming a doctrine on a single verse. Therefor a doctrine built on a single verse is not valid.  The doctrine that says suggests that the gates attack the church have no supporting verses. :Gates do not attack.
