day no. 14,872: everyone inherits his father's house

Matthew 25:32-34, 43
Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left. 34 Then the King will say to those on his right,

‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.'

41 Then he will say to those on his left,

‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.'



Those who have been adopted as children of God by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone will inherit the world He died to leave them in His will. This plan was completed in the course of time in our world, but was concocted and committed to before the beginning of all time or our world even existing.

Those who have not been grafted in to the family of God will be sent to the eternal fire which was originally prepared for the devil and his demons - the third of the host of heaven who followed him in his rebellion.

Everyone inherits his father's house. The children of God, the world and everything in it; the children of the devil, fire and darkness and the utter absence of goodness.

To whom do you belong? Whose household are you in?
