Inheritance In Heaven Now !!!

Did you know those that believe and trust ONLY in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus have an inheritance in heaven?


The first and second chapter of the Apostle Paul's letter to the Ephesians is a super exciting chapter that outlines the saved believer's position in grace and what they have NOW after having believed and trusted the simple gospel that saves. 


Read for yourself the first two chapters of Ephesians and pray on these verses for what we have NOW as saved believers bocnc .


It is good to pray on all of these as a daily reminder to renew your mind with who you are now in Christ. 


Ephesians 1:3  We have ALL spiritual blessings right now in the heavens !


Ephesians 1:4  We are holy and without blame now.  How can that be you say? When God looks at us now, we are holy and without blame before Him in love because we trust in Jesus' death burial and resurrection for salvation.  When we trusted the gospel, not only were our sins forgiven, but Jesus' righteousness was applied to our account forever.  We could never earn that or any righteousness on our own in the flesh by doing good works ! 


Ephesians 1:5   We are now adopted as children in God's family forever !


Ephesians 1:6  We are accepted in the beloved. We are accepted by God NOW !


Ephesians 1:7   We have been redeemed by God and our sins are forgiven now and forever by the blood of Christ.  This is all according to the riches of God's grace and love towards you !


Ephesians  1:9     We now know the mystery of God's will !  (For all men to be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth by trusting in the death burial and resurrection of Jesus alone for salvation.  1 Timothy 2:4 KJV)


Ephesians 1:11  We have obtained an inheritance in heaven !  


Ephesians 1:13-14  Our salvation and inheritance is sealed by the Holy Spirit who now dwells in us !  This word seal in scripture means a finished purchased transaction and security!  Our salvation is eternally secured and cannot be lost as we believe/trust in the death burial and resurrection of Jesus for salvation and nothing else.


Walking in the Spirit


standing in grace 24/7. learn what this means 


forgiven past present AND future


only trusting in God/Jesus to be declared righteous forever



God's Gospel Of Love For His Creation


To be saved:  You not ONLY have to believe in who Jesus is and was and always will be, God became man, you ALSO have to believe and trust only in Jesus’ death burial and resurrection for the forgiveness of sins, and God’s free gift of eternal life, and to be declared righteous forever in God's eyes. Believe and trust the simple gospel that saves - 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 & 2 Corinthians 5:1-20. Trust ONLY in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus for your salvation, to be declared righteous by God forever ! Any trust in your own human works and efforts , whether it be moral or religious has zero power to save you.


After you are saved: - Romans 12:2  - To grow in God's grace and learn about your exciting new creature identity and future then renew your mind daily with body of Christ creature  doctrine (Romans through Philemon), including praying through the simple gospel that saves every day (see my personal example below) in your own words.   New creature / BOC doctrine,  is the instruction that Jesus gave the Apostle Paul for the body of Christ creature found in Romans through Philemon.  This is how God forms Christ in the inner mind of body of Christ new creature members. This is body of Christ creature doctrine only.  


Earn rewards in heaven now: -  by applying sound doctrine written to the body of Christ new creature (Romans through Philemon) in your inner man , the Holy Spirit will use the body of Christ creature doctrine to teach you it so Christ be formed in you during the body of Christ new creature dispensation and then you image that love back to others, not taking glory for it before man and or in your own mind !  God gets this glory by you believing that is exactly what you are doing when you love people , imaging Christ !  Because you now understand God's love and forgiveness is forever. Once you trust only in Christ for righteousness you have it and sin can no longer separate you from God. It is that simple !!!. - 1 Corinthians 3:12-15 , Hebrews 11:1-6 


The Simple Gospel That Saves throughout all history:


Do you acknowledge your sin has separated you from God/Jesus ( OT did not know exactly who Messiah was and BOC creature did , Jesus = God, Jesus = fullness of God became man, Jesus, finished work (DBR), and renounce any attempt to fix your sin problem and be declared righteous by God by your own good works, moral or religion, or thinking you are too good to go to hell because of your moral and religious works, and trust only in Jesus ( God became man)  finished work, which is His death burial and resurrection,  for forgiveness of sins ,  eternal life and Jesus righteousness imputed to your account so God declares you righteous forever and sin can never separate you from God again?  yes or no ?


Lastly if you ask why this has not been taught as being this simple by mainstream church I anity =  ALL MANS religions/denominations/churches in buildings…….. when it is right in the Bible….well here is why :


2 Corinthians 4:3-4

And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled [a]to those who are perishing, in whose case the god of this [b]world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that [c]they will not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.


2 Corinthians 11:13-15


13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds.

This is also why the book of Acts is a story of the transition from the Old creature - Israel's program to the New creature the body of Christ.   I believe both Peter and Paul were charged with making sure this transition went smoothly and Peter was not supposed to understand body of Christ creature doctrine all together.  Paul obvi knew Israel creature doctrine and BOC creature doctrine. 


"Creature" is key 


The key to learning your direct instruction in the bible 


is


creature


2 Timothy 2:15


however we can learn things of God's way versus the way of cain In all books of the bible, some in plain view in His word, and many hidden in His word.



2 Timothy 3:16-17 

Hebrews 11:1-6 


11 Now faith is the certainty of things [a]hoped for, a [b]proof of things not seen. 2 For by it the people of old [c]gained approval.


By faith we understand that the [d]world has been created by the word of God so that what is seen has not been made out of things that are visible. 4 By faith Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain, through which he was attested to be righteous, God testifying [e]about his gifts, and through [f]faith, though he is dead, he still speaks. 5 By faith Enoch was taken up so that he would not see death; and he was not found because God took him up; for before he was taken up, he was attested to have been pleasing to God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for the one who comes to God must believe that He exists, and that He proves to be One who rewards those who seek Him. 7 By faith Noah, being warned by God about things not yet seen, [g]in reverence prepared an ark for the salvation of his household, by which he condemned the world, and became an heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.


To God our Father and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be ALL glory both now and forevermore !!! 


Grace and peace !!!
