  264    Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God,...

Oh, let's just take it word by word here for a minute. Will you bear with me that long, just a little bit? I know it's hot, and you know it's hot up here too. But let's see.

I'll make a... He that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God,...

Pillar... A pillar, or a foundation. Foundation in the temple of the house, or the house of God. "The temple of my God," or, "the house of my God." It's a pillar, the foundation. These are those that took the Word which they heard in verse 8, and went back to the foundation.

  266    Now, let's get Ephesians 2:19, over at the church of Ephesus. You know, you have to go back to Ephesus; that was the beginning. Is the right? All right, let's go back to Ephesus where Paul was, the church that he established. And let's see now where we're at. All right, the church of Ephesus. Let's go back now and see what this foundation is back there, and see what Paul said about the foundation back in that first church age there. Now, he's talking to the Ephesians.

Now, therefore ye are no more strangers or foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

And are built upon the foundation of the... (Lutheran, oh... the Baptist... Now, wait, I got mixed up, didn't I?)... But are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

  267    Everything went in at the Door, Jesus. "And he that overcometh will I make him a pillar." In other words, part of the foundation, "What will I give him? I'll put in him the doctrine of the apostles and prophets from the beginning, and give him the revelation." What'd the prophets say about Him? He's Counseller, Prince of Peace, Mighty God, everlasting Father. That's what they said: the prophets, the apostles. "And he that can overcome all this synagogues of Satan, keep hisself free and look straight to the Gate, I'll make him a pillar; I'll put him back in the foundation of My Word in the house of My God." Oh, my. "I'll put him right there in that pillar in the foundation, where they stay right in the Word." Amen. I like that, brother. It's good. I may act funny; I--but I feel good. All right.

  E-6    And what I read here is His Word. It will never change; It'll never pass away. It's eternally right. Mine may fail, 'cause I'm just a man, speak like any other man, make mistakes and everything. But when He speaks, mark His Words; it's the truth. See?

And this is His Word. Primarily this is--this is the Foundation. And every church, every borned-again person is built upon this Foundation, Jesus Christ, the Chief Cornerstone. And He's the Gate, the Door of entrance to all eternal blessings. He is the Gate, the Door to the sheepfold.

And this Bible is His Word. And if a man, woman, or whoever, speaks anything to be truth that's contrary to the contents of this Bible, it's wrong. That's right. It's absolutely wrong. But if the man speaks, and it's backed up by this Bible, then it's truth. Every word of it's true.
