Preparing For Our Spiritual Inheritance

Sermonette by Ryan McClure

We see the importance of continuous work for our Father and our Family as we realize that we are part of His most important Family and will share in their inheritance and all the benefits that come with it. Comparing the two families, the Vanderbilts and Rockefellers, both started with similar fortunes, but the direction of the two founders and their immediate family led to two different outcomes. The Vanderbilts spent all their money and time on frivolous pursuits while Rockefeller encouraged the family members to adopt values that maintained and sometimes grew their fortune. We see a parallel with the two sons in Luke 15 with the faithful and prodigal son. We often feel like both of the sons in our lives. God places great importance in repentance and turning to Him, but we often feel discouraged with the struggle of doing the work of God while experiencing a lot of suffering. While we are not saved by works, it is very important to God, as shown in I Peter 3, and those who fight to do His will can be expected to get all that belongs to a member of the God Family.
