Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Revelation 3:12-13

3:12 "He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. And 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.
3:13 "He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches."'


The church in Philadelphia experiences great things, namely the shut door or impossibility, the synagogue of Satan, and increasing temptations up to the days of the antichrist. Therefore, the Lord gives the comfort and warning [verse 11] as well as the promise [verse 12] to the church that overcomes, namely being the pillars in New Jerusalem.

There are three kinds of pillars in Tabernacle as follows.

  1. The pillars of the Court.
    Exodus 27:9-10, 12-16
    27:9 " You shall also make the court of the tabernacle. For the south side there shall be hangings for the court made of fine woven linen, one hundred cubits long for one side.
    27:10 "And its twenty pillars and their twenty sockets shall be bronze. The hooks of the pillars and their bands shall be silver.
    27:12 " And along the width of the court on the west side shall be hangings of fifty cubits, with their ten pillars and their ten sockets.
    27:13 "The width of the court on the east side shall be fifty cubits.
    27:14 "The hangings on one side of the gate shall be fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three sockets.
    27:15 "And on the other side shall be hangings of fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three sockets.
    27:16 " For the gate of the court there shall be a screen twenty cubits long, woven of blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine woven linen, made by a weaver. It shall have four pillars and four sockets.


    There are sixty pillars of the Court that refer to the people who are chosen to be the heroes or pillars of faith.
    The sixty pillars consist of two parts as follows.

    • 56 pillars.
      Luke 3:23-34
      3:23 Now Jesus Himself began His ministry at about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, the son of Heli,
      3:24 the son of Matthat, the son of Levi, the son of Melchi, the son of Janna, the son of Joseph,
      3:25 the son of Mattathiah, the son of Amos, the son of Nahum, the son of Esli, the son of Naggai,
      3:26 the son of Maath, the son of Mattathiah, the son of Semei, the son of Joseph, the son of Judah,
      3:27 the son of Joannas, the son of Rhesa, the son of Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, the son of Neri,
      3:28 the son of Melchi, the son of Addi, the son of Cosam, the son of Elmodam, the son of Er,
      3:29 the son of Jose, the son of Eliezer, the son of Jorim, the son of Matthat, the son of Levi,
      3:30 the son of Simeon, the son of Judah, the son of Joseph, the son of Jonan, the son of Eliakim,
      3:31 the son of Melea, the son of Menan, the son of Mattathah, the son of Nathan, the son of David,
      3:32 the son of Jesse, the son of Obed, the son of Boaz, the son of Salmon, the son of Nahshon,
      3:33 the son of Amminadab, the son of Ram, the son of Hezron, the son of Perez, the son of Judah,
      3:34 the son of Jacob, the son of Isaac, the son of Abraham,....


      It is counted from Abraham to Joseph, the father of Jesus, or the circumcised people.

    • 4 pillars of the Gate, namely Matthew, Mark, John (the circumcised people) and Luke (the uncircumcised person or the Gentile).

    Thus, the sixty pillars consist of the house of Israel and the Gentiles. This is the justice and mercy of God to the Gentiles that they may be the pillars of faith.

    1 Corinthians 7:19

    7:19 Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing, but keeping the commandments of God is what matters.

    Being the pillars of faith is not about the circumcision or uncircumcision, but obedience until the flesh does not speak anymore. For example, Abraham must obey God to leave his own land and offer Isaac, his son.

    Hebrews 11:8

    11:8 By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.

    The results are as follows


    • Being blessed up to the descendants and being blessings for others.
      Genesis 12:1-2
      12:1 Now the LORD had said to Abram: "Get out of your country, From your family And from your father's house, To a land that I will show you.
      12:2 I will make you a great nation;
      I will bless youAnd make your name great; And you shall be a blessing.

      Genesis 14:18-23

      14:18 Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine; he was the priest of God Most High.
      14:19 And he blessed him and said: "Blessed be Abram of God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth;
      14:20 And blessed be God Most High, Who has delivered your enemies into your hand."
      And he gave him a tithe of all.
      14:21 Now the king of Sodom said to Abram, "Give me the persons, and take the goods for yourself."
      14:22 But Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have raised my hand to the LORD, God Most High, the Possessor of heaven and earth,
      14:23 "that I will take nothing, from a thread to a sandal strap, and that I will not take anything that is yours, lest you should say, 'I have made Abram rich' --


      The secret of the blessing cycle of Abraham is in returning the tithes and being blessings for others. The tithes mean our confession that we have been blessed by God and we live by Him. It is the way from God to cut our relationship with Sodom and Gomorrah so that we do not look back like the wife of Lot who became the useless pillar of salt and perished.

    • Entering Canaan or the promised land.
      It means that we are used in the revival for building the perfect body of Christ until we can enter New Jerusalem and become the pillars.

  2. The pillars of the Door.
    Exodus 26:36-37
    26:36 " You shall make a screen for the door of the tabernacle, woven of blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine woven linen, made by a weaver.
    26:37 "And you shall make for the screen five pillars of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold; their hooks shall be of gold, and you shall cast five sockets of bronze for them.


    There are five pillars of the Door. They refer to the pillars of hope or holiness.

    Galatians 2:9

    2:9and when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that had been given to me, they gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.

    The five pillars of hope are James, Peter, John, Paul, and Barnabas.

    John 13:21-26

    13:21 When Jesus had said these things, He was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, "Most assuredly, I say to you, one of you will betray Me."
    13:22 Then the disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom He spoke.
    13:23
    Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved.
    13:24 Simon Peter therefore motioned to him to ask who it was of whom He spoke.
    13:25 Then, leaning back on Jesus' breast, he said to Him, "Lord, who is it?"
    13:26 Jesus answered, "It is he to whom I shall give a piece of bread when I have dipped it." And having dipped the bread, He gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.


    For example, John leaned on Jesus' bosom. It means that one who is loved by the Lord and loves Him more than anything.

    Romans 5:5

    5:5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

    Leaning on Jesus' bosom means being strong and of good courage. We are neither disappointed nor hopeless in facing all things. We are not proud of anything. The facts found in being strong and of courage are as follows.

    • Being strong and of courage in facing false teachings and worship.
      2 John 1:10-11
      1:10If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him;
      1:11 for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.


      It means that we must neither greet nor have fellowship, until being separated forever. We must firmly reject the false teachings and not give any opportunity to hear it although it is only once. One will fall and the destruction is great until he perishes like Judas Iscariot if he is doubtful.

    • Being strong and of courage in facing temptations.
      Numbers 13:27-28, 32
      13:27 Then they told him, and said: "We went to the land where you sent us. It truly flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit.
      13:28 "Nevertheless the people who dwell in the land are strong; the cities are fortified and very large; moreover we saw the descendants of Anak there.
      13:32 And they gave the children of Israel a
      bad reportof the land which they had spied out, saying, "The land through which we have gone as spies is a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the people whom we saw in it are men of great stature.

      The Bride Tidings will be a bad report if it is added with the voice of the flesh. Magnifying the temptations more than the Word of Bride Tidings will cause murmur, disappointment, and hopelessness.
      Let us be strong and of good courage, give thanks in everything, and keep on believing and holding fast the promise of God.

    • Being strong and of courage in facing the sins up to the peak. We can live in righteousness and holiness regardless any risk we have to take.
      The results are as follows.

      1. Being protected from the antichrist and false prophets.
        John 13:25-26

        13:25Then, leaning back on Jesus' breast, he said to Him, "Lord, who is it?"
        13:26 Jesus answered, "It is he to whom I shall give a piece of bread when I have dipped it." And having dipped the bread, He gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.


      2. Being used in the revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain, namely the building of the body of Christ.
        Joshua 1:6-7
        1:6 "Be strong and of good courage, for to this people you shall divide as an inheritance the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.
        1:7 "Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go.


        The Lord gives us the beautiful and successful future life up to the highest success when we become the pillars in New Jerusalem.

  3. The pillars of the Veil.
    Exodus 26:31-32
    26:31 " You shall make a veil woven of blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine woven linen. It shall be woven with an artistic design of cherubim.
    26:32 "You shall hang it upon the four pillars of acacia wood overlaid with gold. Their hooks shall be gold, upon four sockets of silver.


    There are four pillars that are made of acacia wood overlaid with gold. They refer to the men with godly character who have been taken up to heaven, namely Enoch, Moses, Elijah, and the Lord Jesus.
    Enoch and Elijah were taken while they were still alive. Moses and the Lord Jesus died first, and then they were resurrected and taken up to heaven. Thus, the matter of death or life is not a problem, but we must be overlaid with gold while we are living in the world, namely we have the life renewal from fleshly men to spiritual ones like Jesus. For example, Enoch.

    Genesis 5:22-24

    5:22 After he begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God three hundred years, and had sons and daughters.
    5:23 So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years.
    5:24 And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.


    The number 300 is the same as the periphery of Tabernacle, namely 2 x (100 + 50). Thus, walking with God for three hundred years means the friendship that is brought up by the Tabernacle and Bride teachings or Bride Tidings. The Tabernacle consists of three rooms, namely the Court, the Holy Place, and the Most Holy Place. We are walking with God in the Holy Place or the shepherding pen now. There are three kinds of equipment in it that refer to the perseverance in doing three main services to God as follows.

    • Golden Candlestick or perseverance in doing General Service to have the fellowship with Holy Spirit God in the gifts.

    • Table of Showbread or perseverance in doing Bible Study Service with Holy Communion to have the fellowship with the Son of God in the true teaching Word and Christ's sacrifice.

    • Golden Altar of Incense or perseverance in doing Worship Prayer Service to have the fellowship with Father God in the love.

    Our body, soul, and spirit are walking with God the Trinity until we have the renewal from fleshly men to spiritual ones like Jesus.

    Proverbs 3:32

    3:32 For the perverse person is an abomination to the LORD, But His secret counsel is with the upright.

    The fact found in being the pillars of the Veil is honesty. It begins from the matter of God or doctrine.
    Titus 2:7

    2:7 in all things showing yourself to be a pattern of good works; in doctrine showing integrity, reverence, incorruptibility,

    We must also be honest in our marriage. Keep the righteousness, holiness, and unity of our marriage from the beginning, during the marriage, until we enter the spiritual marriage.
    Hebrews 13:4
    13:4 Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.

    We must also be honest in finance, returning the tithes to God, and giving to other people who need.
    Hebrews 13:5a
    13:5 Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have.

    Hebrews 13:5b
    13:5 For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."

    As a result, God is with us to walk with us. We only look at Him, the High Priest who sits at the right hand of the throne of God. He also looks at us to pay attention to, care for, and struggle with us until he says "It is finished".
    The results are as follows

    • Jesus bears all heavy burdens and weariness until they are finished and we find rest and peace. All things become easy and light.
      Hebrews 4:14-16
      4:14 Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.
      4:15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.
      4:16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.


      Jesus is able to solve all problems in time of need and the miracles happen.
      We must keep on hoping in God when we have not been helped yet. Do not hope in others.

    • Jesus as the High Priest is able to sanctify and change us.
      Hebrews 12:2-3
      12:2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
      12:3 For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls.


      We are neither hopeless nor disappointed, but keep on believing and hoping in God. The more we are changed, the more we get the beautiful life until we get the most beautiful thing, namely we are lifted up on the glorious clouds when Jesus comes a second time.

      Revelation 21:5-6

      21:5 Then He who sat on the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new." And He said to me, "Write, for these words are true and faithful."
      21:6 And He said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts.


      It continues until we can enter New Jerusalem forever with the Lord.

God blesses us.
