Caesarea Phillipi is situated at the base of Mt. Hermon, NE of the Sea of Galilee. It was originally called Panais because it was the center of worship of the pagan fertility God Pan. These pagans sacrificed goats and other animals into the "Gates of Hell" which was the source of the water supply that eventually flows into the Sea of Galilee. Governor Huckabee spoke to us here about how we are to be the spiritual conquerors and not the spiritual defenders. We are the little rocks and He is the cornerstone. The church is not to "sit still" but the "advance" the gospel. He encouraged us to be warriors of the faith and to use our every available moment for the Kingdom of Christ.
