Jesus Christ died for us, and a gate He opened for us! The following ancient Chinese oracle drawings also foretold us about these things.
About this gate, Nephi said, "Wherefore, do the things which I have told you I have seen that your Lord and your Redeemer should do; for, for this cause have they been shown unto me, that ye might know the gate by which ye should enter. For the gate by which ye should enter is repentance and baptism by water; and then cometh a remission of your sins by fire and by the Holy Ghost. And then are ye in this strait and narrow path which leads to eternal life; yea, ye have entered in by the gate; ye have done according to the commandments of the Father and the Son; and ye have received the Holy Ghost, which witnesses of the Father and the Son, unto the fulfilling of the promise which he hath made, that if ye entered in by the way ye should receive"(2 Nephi 31:17-18).
This drawing "A hand opening a door" is the original word of "open".
The most glorious description about the gate from the Prophet Joseph Smith is the verses of Doctrine and Covenants 137:1-2, "The heavens were opened upon us, and I beheld the celestial kingdom of God, and the glory thereof, whether in the body or out I cannot tell. I saw the transcendent beauty of the gate through which the heirs of that kingdom will enter, which was like unto circling flames of fire;"
And the following drawings show what the Prophet Joseph Smith said.
