Our inheritence

1 peter 1:3-5
this is 1 peter 1:3-5 in 5 different bible versions.

VERSE 4: the NIV and NASB use the phrase "kept in heaven for you". The
other 3 use the word "reserved". What I learnt is that it is reserved for us but
we have access to the inheritence NOW. I will elaborate more later.

VERSE 5: "who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation
ready to be revealed in the last time" (NKJV)
the verse starts of with who are kept. this shows that the verse is referring to
people, us, kept by the power of God through faith for salvation.

What is ready to be revealed in the last time?
the salvation of our souls / minds!

1 peter 1:6-9

VERSE 6: The presence of various trials tests our faith, gives glory to
God

VERSE 9: Receiving the end (goal, result, outcome, reward) of our faith.
Refers to the salvation of our souls

James 1:21-27

James 1:21 ==>; Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

James 1:22 ==>; The word is able to save our souls. Not JUST by hearing but by doing. In our ministry, our service, our works.

Ephesians 1:11 ==>; They use past tense.
"obtained". Through Christ we have this inheritence already. Jesus died so that
we receive the inheritence.

Faith receives the inheritence. And with this inheritence, we have what we
need to go through the various trials that test our faith.
