Christ Is Enough: Discovering Your True Inheritance
Manage episode 507126574 series 3564472
For many, the word predestination brings more fear than comfort. Visions of a distant God choosing some for heaven and others for hell can feel unsettling. But what if that’s not what Scripture is saying at all?
In this episode, we look into Ephesians 1:11-14 and discover the breathtaking truth: predestination isn’t about God excluding people, it’s about God making a way for everyone through Jesus. Long before the world began, God wrote your name into His divine will. He didn’t overlook you. He chose you to receive the greatest inheritance possible, not riches or lands, but Christ Himself.
We’ll talk about what it means to be sealed with the Holy Spirit, how every taste of God’s joy now is only a foretaste of glory to come, and why the family of God has no outsiders. At the cross, all walls come down. Every believer is equally loved, equally chosen, and equally secure in Christ.
If predestination has ever unsettled you, this conversation will change your perspective. Instead of fear, you’ll find rest in God’s love and confidence in your eternal inheritance.
