“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.

Not
a pillar to support the temple (heaven needs no such props), but a monument of
the free and powerful grace of God, a monument that shall never be defaced nor
removed (MH)
·
The
new name of Christ, the Mediator, the Redeemer, the captain of our
salvation; by this it will appear under whose banner this conquering believer
had enlisted, under whose conduct he acted, by whose example he was encouraged,
and under whose influence he fought the good fight, and came off victorious.
(MH)
Psalm 87:5, 6 And of Zion it will be said, “This one and
that one were born in her; and the Most High Himself shall establisher
her.” The LORD will record, when He
registers the peoples: “This one was
born there.”
Isaiah 62:2 The Gentiles shall see your righteousness,
and all kings your glory. You shall be
called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD will name.
