Do you believe?


Good morning!  Today we are dwelling on the idea of inheritance according to Scripture.  The word inheritance is in the KJV 203 times!  The message today is about the inheritance that Jesus afforded those who believe through the cross:  Do you believe?

Eph 1:11 "In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: 12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
n1 trusted: or, hoped
13 In whom ye also [trusted], after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory."

The Holy Spirit is like a check written by God, by His Hand, signed in His Blood, that is stored folded in your breast pocket.  You KNOW the check is good! When we finish out this life, God will even cash it for you!  Check your pocket.  Do you have one?

2 Peter 1:10 "Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall."  ( Read 5-11)
