We, as co-heirs with Christ and first fruits of God's family, have an awesome responsibility to properly value and use the associated privileges pertaining to the first fruits of God's family. We are warned not to take these privileges and responsibilities as shallowly as Esau, who took something that was holy and treated it as common. We must be careful we, as co-heirs with Christ and First fruits of God's family, that we do not take our precious calling lightly and flippantly, placing our fleshly needs above it. It is possible, with this casual or double-minded attitude, to lose our birthright. If we place the fleshly lusts in higher regard than our calling, we could easily lose our inheritance.
