28 Thanks for Heavenly
Inheritance
We absolutely need to be thankful for our
salvation because it is the greatest gift that
God has given us, even greater than life itself.
Our life didn't cost God anything but our
salvation cost Jesus His life.
There are many things that go with our
salvation however and we should be thankful for
them as well. We are given the Holy
Spirit. We are given a new nature.
We have a whole new life. And we are given
a heavenly inheritance.
Salvation is about being rescued from the
punishment that we deserve for our sins.
But we not only get this, we get all of the
benefits of righteousness and that includes
being able to live with God in heaven.
Sometimes things on earth seem pretty good
but other times they are very difficult.
No matter how good or bad they are though, we
have heaven to look forward to. Things
will be better than our greatest days here on
earth. And our bad days won't even be a
memory, they'll be forgotten completely as we
enjoy our inheritance.
Our heavenly inheritance is something that
all Christians should look forward. Even
though we have yet to receive it, we can thank
God for it today because we are assured of it as
part of our future. |
