This is one of the promises for overcomers.
“He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name.”
Revelation 3:12 NKJV (Greek, Strong’s G4769 – stulos)
There is a temple in heaven.
Then the temple of God was opened in heaven, and the ark of His covenant was seen in His temple. And there were lightnings, noises, thunderings, an earthquake, and great hail.
Revelation 11:19 NKJV
The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from His power, and no one was able to enter the temple till the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.
Revelation 15:8 NKJV
Note that there is a throne in this temple.
Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, “It is done!”
Revelation 16:17 NKJV
Yet, there is no temple in the New Jerusalem.
But I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
Revelation 21:22 NKJV
I have been puzzling over this seeming contradiction a long time. If I overcome, I get to be a pillar in God’s temple, and I won’t go out. But in the New Jerusalem there is no separate temple, “for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.”
However this promise is fulfilled, it is going to be good!
But as it is written:
“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
1 Corinthians 2:9 NKJV
Do you have thoughts how this will be fulfilled?
Are you following God's plan for your life? You should. Your plan sucks. It really, really sucks. Suckage Maximus. Most people are WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! Jesus is coming. Are you ready to meet Him? Give your life to Jesus Christ. Time is running out.
