Our inheritance 3.

February 9th, 2011 by Miki Hardy

We understand that our inheritance is primarily spiritual, because  Jesus died for our sins, our spiritual condition. Our inheritance is directly linked with what Jesus accomplished when He died on the cross. Jesus shed His blood when He died and He Himself said to His disciples: “This is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” Matthew 26:28. 1John 3:5 says that He was manifested to take away our sins.  Salvation by grace through faith in Christ is our inheritance. We are now the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. The blood of Jesus constantly cleanses us from all sin. 1 John 1:7. It allows us to keep that wonderful relationship with Christ.
