(You’ve Got Equal Ownership With Jesus)

TO THE BIBLE:
Romans 8:16-17
“The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.”
LET’S TALK
“Jayden, why do you keep saying, “I am a co-heir with Christ Jesus; you’re a joint-heir not co-heir.”
“Thank you, Marc, for pointing out the difference to me. I am a joint-heir with Christ Jesus. Hallelujah!”
Some Bible translators struggled in trying to interpret correctly the message conveyed by the apostle Paul in our opening scripture, particularly when he referred to Christians as “joint-heirs” with Christ. This concept challenged their existing theological frameworks, prompting some to opt for translating it as “co-heirs” rather than sticking with the original Greek term “sugklēronomos,” meaning joint-heirs.
So, what’s the difference? A “co-heir” shares in the inheritance but not in joint-ownership. Unlike co-heirs, joint heirs own the inheritance jointly with undivided interest; they have equal rights to the entire inheritance. Let’s put it this way: while co-heirs can share it thirty-seventy or sixty-forty, or some other relevant fractions, the case with joint heirship is that, no one gets anything without the other; they have equal ownership over the whole hundred percent.
To be a joint-heir with Christ means everything that belongs to Him belongs to you, in the same way and degree that it belongs to Him. No wonder the Word declares that in Christ, all things are yours (1 Corinthians 3:21). Praise God! How can you know this and be limited in life? Nothing should limit you, absolutely nothing!
Nothing should get you hemmed in financially because you’re an heir of God and a joint-heir with Christ. Think about what He owns, then you’ll know how limitless and unsearchable your riches and resources are. You have all things that pertain to life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3). Therefore, lift your head above the clouds, and think like God; live a limitless life.

SPEAK
I’m a joint-heir with Christ and an heir of God’s Kingdom of blessings! I have all things that pertain to life and godliness. I walk in divine health and prosperity and function from a position of victory and unending success in Christ. I flourish exceedingly in every good work, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
