27.What are "the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints"?

Back to Study the Book of Ephesians


Back to Chapter One......


God has given to Christ the nations and the farthest reaches of the earth for His inheritance. Because we are coheirs with Christ our inheritance consists of the nations and the farthest reaches of the earth.

Why is this inheritance in us? It is in us because God’s love for the nations is in us. God’s love flows to Christ. Christ’s love flows to us. As Christ comes to maturity in us, the love of God that is in Christ flows to the peoples whose spiritual welfare has been entrusted to us.

Our glorious inheritance is, first of all, the Lord Himself. Then, our inheritance is to be filled with the love of Christ for the nations of the earth, and to minister to the nations as Christ’s love works in us.
