Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more
out." Rev. 3:12.
In John 10 the Lord says, "I am the door:by Me, if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall
go in and out, and find pasture." It is no longer the Jewish sheepfold and the bondage of the law,
but perfect liberty, going in for worship and out for service, everywhere finding food and
blessing. How sweet to think that the time is coming when we shall go in, never to come out
more! It will be always service in immediate connection with the Lord Himself_enjoyment of
the presence of God and of the Lamb_eternal worship! And let me again ask, for whom would
this be a welcome and happy promise? For those who had valued and enjoyed worship here
below_for those who have thought of Christ now, Christ will provide all the joy He can give
them then. The Lord grant that this may be our comfort while we wait for Him!
We may for Christ be outside all that looks strong and orderly. In that day we shall go no more
out, but enjoy the most intimate association with Christ, be a pillar in the temple of His God.
