Our Inheritance
All that Name stands for, the believer stands for in the presence of the Father.
You are baptized into the legal right to use the Name.
You are baptized into the legal privilege of that Name. You are baptized into all the responsibilities of a Son vested with prerogatives of that mighty Name.
God help us by the power of the Spirit to enter into the riches of our inheritance in Him.
When He said, “All authority is given unto me in heaven and on earth I send you out as heralds”-then that authority He had is ours; we stand as His representatives. His righteousness is ours, His love is ours; all the graces that adorned His beautiful life are ours.
When we put on Christ in baptism, we are by His grace able to enjoy all the graces.
As believers, all these riches, all these graces are ours. No special act on the part of God-no special act or preparation on our part: by faith, we accept Christ as our Saviour and Lord and when we did, all the wealth and riches in Christ Jesus became ours automatically.
We stand clothed in the rights, privileges, and powers of the Son of God.
