A) Receive the promise: Promised of God abound. Guess what? You and I must receive or accept them for us to take ownership of them. Like when a package needs to be signed for. B) Of the eternal inheritance: something Jesus left us in HIS will. It is eternal life. He died for this to be executable. That truth that He resurrected does not invalidate that He died. It’s our inheritance. C) A will is valid when a person dies (not discussing living wills now). My inheritance. I signed it. I received it under his terms. It was WAY less. But it was the inheritance the Lord had chosen for me.
