The Father has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints. We get an inheritance because we’ve become God’s children by entering into the kingdom of Jesus Christ, God’s Beloved Son.

We are delivered from darkness into the light because we’ve been redeemed. The blood of Jesus bought our lives back. We were bought out of slavery. Jesus paid the price that we could have forgiveness and freedom from sin.

Jesus became life and peace for us by dying for us. He could do it because He is the image of God. He has been for us from the beginning of time, because by Him all things were created, and that includes you and me.

We, and everything else, were created through Him and for Him. We have always belonged to Jesus!

We either fight our true ownership and rebel and sin and cause havoc in our lives, or we submit ourselves to our rightful owner and live with life-giving purpose.

Jesus is the head of the Church and the head of the Body. He holds it all together. We will be one in Christ Jesus, and in Christ the fullness of God dwells!

Jesus presents us before the throne holy and blameless. No one can say a thing about us because we come blood-washed and Spirit-filled.

Through faith, we receive the holiness that allows us to see God. It’s all a grace gift and we receive those grace gifts by faith. We must continue in faith to continue in freedom and purity, our holiness and righteousness in Christ.

And we love and have faith because of our hope, which is Christ in us, the hope of glory.
