“He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.”
King James Version (KJV)
21:7 He that overcometh - Which is more than, he that thirsteth. Shall inherit these things - Which I have made new. I will be his God, and he shall be my son - Both in the Hebrew and Greek language, in which the scriptures were written, what we translate shall and will are one and the same word. The only difference consists in an English translation, or in the want of knowledge in him that interprets what he does not understand.
Re 21:7 He that overcometh. Here for the first time, after the close of the seven epistles to the churches, do we have the promise to him who overcomes. See Re 2:7,11,17,26 3:5,12,21.
He that ouercommeth, shall inherite all things, and I will bee his God, and he shall be my sonne.
