Belief in Jesus as Lord and Savior (justification) is the elementary foundation of a life-long process. 1 Peter 1:3-4 speaks of the imperishable inheritance reserved for believers in heaven. Ephesians 1:18 tells us that Jesus has an inheritance - in believers. It is our maturiting in Christ through the ongoing process of sanctification that brings His inheritance in glorification:
“I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints”
This Easter I also pray that all believers continue in Christ, always seeking more of Him, that He may be further glorified in us... "moving beyond the elementary..."
Blessings
