INHERITANCE

The New Testament speaks of the inheritance given to believers in Jesus.

Our inheritance is not received in this life. Rather, it is reserved in heaven for us. It is our reward. (Colossians 3:24) God qualified to share in the inheritance of the saints in light as he delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son. (Colossians 1:12) He gave us an inheritance among all those who are sanctified. (Acts 20:32) 

This inheritance was given to the Son of God, then to us who are adopted into God’s family when we become “in Christ”. We are co-heirs with him. (Romans 8:16-17) 

This inheritance is imperishable, undefiled, and fading, kept in heaven for us. (1 Peter 1:4)
