Pearly Gates

'The Pearly Gates is a name for the gateway to Heaven in some Christian traditions. It is inspired by Revelation 21:21. This describes the New Jerusalem having twelve gates. Each gate would have a pearl. In popular culture, these gates are imagined as large gates in the clouds. The gates would be guarded by Saint Peter. People who are not fit to go into heaven would be sent into Hell.
