OUR GREAT INHERITANCE
By Rev M. S. Casto
TEXT: 1 Peter 1:3-4. “Blessed be
the God and Father of our Lord
Jesus Christ, which according to his
abundant mercy hath begotten us
again unto a lively hope by the
resurrection of Jesus Christ from
the dead, to an inheritance incorrup
tible, and undefiled, and that fadeth
not away.”
We have stopped short with the
text on account of space, but it is
so good it ought to have been quoted
in full. Easter is past with its note
of great certainty. But its conse
quences are not past. The text ti Ils
us of wonderful things yet in the
future which follow upon the resur
rection of our Ixrd. When every
thing seemed lost all was won. The
resurrection of Jesus Christ has
been called the Keystone in the arch
of Christianity. Peter goes far be
yond the proof of the resurrection.
He assumes his hearers believe that
beyond any doubt. He points to a
hope beyond. He calls it an inherit
ance, and one that cannot be de
stroyed by time, or rust, or theft.
Jesus Christ has purchased it for his
people at the awful cost of Calvary.
The blow that sin and Satan struck
on the Son of God became the blow
of liberation for the sons of the race
if they will only appropriate it by
gospel means. But there is more
than liberation. There is inher
itance.
God’s people do have an inher
itance. Paul tells us that if we are
children, then we are heirs of God,
and joint-heirs with Christ. See
Romans 8:17. But what is this in
heritance? We think of heaven and
we should. But more is meant than
as a place or state. God’s great de
sign is that his people enjoy fel’ow
ship with Him and the Blessed Trin
ity, and the holy angels, and the re
deemed of all ages. He would have
this relation to begin NOW. Our
God desires not only to get us to
heaven, but to put heaven in our
souls here and now. The final issue
can come later.
The text sneaks of the great se
curity of the title. “Kept by the
power of God.” Omnipotence is be
hind this thing. If the believer will
abide in Christ then the fortune of
Jesus is the fortune of the believer.
There is a human condition in the
text. “Kept through FAITH”.
Faith is like the electric current. It
must be constant through life The
faith that saves and keeps us is
something beyond intellectual as
sent. It is a personal, wi ling, peni
tent investment in our Saviour,
Jesus Christ. Dear reader, how is
your title to this inheritance?

THE DREAMER
His sister is "growing up," ever becoming more "sensible." But he is
still a dreamer forever chewing on a blade of grass and thinking of
happy tomorrows ... forever staring into space to behold the man he wants
to become.
The Bible tells of another dreamer—the^yWithful Joseph. He, too, had
visions of great tomorrows that's why his brothers sold him into slavery!
Older folks don't always understand the dreams of youth. Even loving
parents sometimes stifle the visions that shine in the eyes of a growing boy.
They don't realize that dreams can come true.
The dreams that are written in a boy's bright face are the seeds of
great living. But to find root and to bring forth their harvest, they neec
moral and spiritual nourishment.
The Church understands your child's dreams! The Church's progra
of religious training aims to develop character, courage and faith.
