You Are a Co-Heir With Christ — What That Actually Means | Kingdom Offerings

What does it mean to be a co-heir with Christ? Most of us have heard that we're "children of God," but do we actually understand what that inheritance looks like? In this episode, Dave Scherrer picks up where the last two Kingdom Offerings episodes left off — our status as children of God — and follows it to its stunning conclusion: we are co-heirs with Jesus. In the first century, adoption into a royal family was not symbolic. It was legal, binding, and complete. The adopted child received the same name, the same rights, and the same inheritance as the blood children. God set aside the bloodline requirement and opened His royal family to everyone — Jew and Gentile alike. But here's the part that matters most: God didn't give you a royal inheritance so you'd sit quietly in the corner. He gave it so you'd step into your calling with confidence and purpose. Dave closes with a beautiful word picture from Revelation 22 — like the moon, we have no light of our own, but we will shine forever reflecting the glorious light of Christ. Part 1 of a mini-series on co-heirs and co-rulers. === CHAPTERS === 0:00 Introduction — Kingdom Status and Benefits 0:30 Recap: Our Status as Children of God 1:00 Romans 8:14-19a — Adopted as His Own 2:00 First-Century Adoption — Same Rights, Same Inheritance 2:45 God Set That Aside 3:15 Your Inheritance Is Not for Sitting in the Corner 4:00 Co-Heirs of His Glory — How Can That Be? 4:30 The Moon Metaphor — Reflecting the Light of Christ 5:15 Co-Heirs Reflecting His Glory Back to Him 5:45 Preview: Kingdom Co-Rulers 6:00 Closing — Peace === CONNECT WITH US === Website: https://100foldministries.org Subscribe to the Newsletter: https://100foldministries.org/subscribe Email Dave: dave@100foldministries.org === SCRIPTURE REFERENCES === Romans 8:14-19a — Led by the Spirit, adopted as children, co-heirs with Christ John 9:4 — Quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent us Revelation 22:3, 5 — The Lord God will give them light, and they will reign forever Philippians 2:13 — God gives you the desire and the power to do what pleases Him === ABOUT THIS PODCAST === Kingdom Offerings is the podcast of 100 Fold Ministries, where Dave Scherrer unpacks the offerings of Scripture with a special emphasis on the Gospel of the Kingdom.
