    Israel and the Christ, Matthew 21:38
    Matthew 21:38 NKJV
    But when the vinedressers saw the son, they said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and seize his inheritance.’
    Matthew 21:38 NA28
    οἱ δὲ γεωργοὶ ἰδόντες τὸν υἱὸν εἶπον ἐν ἑαυτοῖς· οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ κληρονόμος· δεῦτε ἀποκτείνωμεν αὐτὸν καὶ σχῶμεν τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ,
    The Promise to Abraham was not by law, Romans 4:13
    Romans 4:13 NKJV
    For the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his seed through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
    Romans 4:13 NA28
    Οὐ γὰρ διὰ νόμου ἡ ἐπαγγελία τῷ Ἀβραὰμ ἢ τῷ σπέρματι αὐτοῦ, τὸ κληρονόμον αὐτὸν εἶναι κόσμου, ἀλλὰ διὰ δικαιοσύνης πίστεως.
    If it was by law, then faith would be void and the promise of no effect, Romans 4:14
    Romans 4:14 NKJV
    For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void and the promise made of no effect,
    Romans 4:14 NA28
    εἰ γὰρ οἱ ἐκ νόμου κληρονόμοι, κεκένωται ἡ πίστις καὶ κατήργηται ἡ ἐπαγγελία·
    We are heirs with Christ because we are children, Romans 8:17
    Romans 8:17 NKJV
    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.
    Romans 8:17 NA28
    εἰ δὲ τέκνα, καὶ κληρονόμοι· κληρονόμοι μὲν θεοῦ, συγκληρονόμοι δὲ Χριστοῦ, εἴπερ συμπάσχομεν ἵνα καὶ συνδοξασθῶμεν.
    The promise given to the seed of Abraham, Galatians 3:29
    Galatians 3:29 NKJV
    And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
    Galatians 3:29 NA28
    εἰ δὲ ὑμεῖς Χριστοῦ, ἄρα τοῦ Ἀβραὰμ σπέρμα ἐστέ, κατʼ ἐπαγγελίαν κληρονόμοι.
    An heir is not under law, Galatians 4:1
    Galatians 4:1 NKJV
    Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all,
    Galatians 4:1 NA28
    Λέγω δέ, ἐφʼ ὅσον χρόνον ὁ κληρονόμος νήπιός ἐστιν, οὐδὲν διαφέρει δούλου κύριος πάντων ὤν,
    Placed as a son, Galatians 4:7
    Galatians 4:7 NKJV
    Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
    Galatians 4:7 NA28
    ὥστε οὐκέτι εἶ δοῦλος ἀλλʼ υἱός· εἰ δὲ υἱός, καὶ κληρονόμος διὰ θεοῦ.
    We are heir according to the hope of eternal life, Titus 3:7
    Titus 3:7 NKJV
    that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
    Titus 3:7 NA28
    ἵνα δικαιωθέντες τῇ ἐκείνου χάριτι κληρονόμοι γενηθῶμεν κατʼ ἐλπίδα ζωῆς αἰωνίου.
    Christ is the heir of all things, Hebrews 1:2
    Hebrews 1:2 NKJV
    has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;
    Hebrews 1:2 NA28
    ἐπʼ ἐσχάτου τῶν ἡμερῶν τούτων ἐλάλησεν ἡμῖν ἐν υἱῷ, ὃν ἔθηκεν κληρονόμον πάντων, διʼ οὗ καὶ ἐποίησεν τοὺς αἰῶνας·
    The immutability of God’s promise, Hebrews 6:17
    Hebrews 6:17 NKJV
    Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath,
    Hebrews 6:17 NA28
    ἐν ᾧ περισσότερον βουλόμενος ὁ θεὸς ἐπιδεῖξαι τοῖς κληρονόμοις τῆς ἐπαγγελίας τὸ ἀμετάθετον τῆς βουλῆς αὐτοῦ ἐμεσίτευσεν ὅρκῳ,
    Noah, through faith came an heir of righteousness, Hebrews 11:7
    Hebrews 11:7 NKJV
    By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.
    Hebrews 11:7 NA28
    Πίστει χρηματισθεὶς Νῶε περὶ τῶν μηδέπω βλεπομένων, εὐλαβηθεὶς κατεσκεύασεν κιβωτὸν εἰς σωτηρίαν τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ διʼ ἧς κατέκρινεν τὸν κόσμον, καὶ τῆς κατὰ πίστιν δικαιοσύνης ἐγένετο κληρονόμος.
    Those rich in faith are heirs, James 2:5
    James 2:5 NKJV
    Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?
    James 2:5 NA28
    ἀκούσατε, ἀδελφοί μου ἀγαπητοί· οὐχ ὁ θεὸς ἐξελέξατο τοὺς πτωχοὺς τῷ κόσμῳ πλουσίους ἐν πίστει καὶ κληρονόμους τῆς βασιλείας ἧς ἐπηγγείλατο τοῖς ἀγαπῶσιν αὐτόν;

    Inheritance

    Seizing of the Inheritance, Matthew 21:38
    Matthew 21:38 NKJV
    But when the vinedressers saw the son, they said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and seize his inheritance.’
    Matthew 21:38 NA28
    οἱ δὲ γεωργοὶ ἰδόντες τὸν υἱὸν εἶπον ἐν ἑαυτοῖς· οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ κληρονόμος· δεῦτε ἀποκτείνωμεν αὐτὸν καὶ σχῶμεν τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ,
    Not by Law, Galatians 3:18
    Galatians 3:18 NKJV
    For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no longer of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by promise.
    Galatians 3:18 NA28
    εἰ γὰρ ἐκ νόμου ἡ κληρονομία, οὐκέτι ἐξ ἐπαγγελίας· τῷ δὲ Ἀβραὰμ διʼ ἐπαγγελίας κεχάρισται ὁ θεός.
    The Holy Spirit is given to us as a guarantee of our inheritance, Ephesians 1:14
    Ephesians 1:14 NKJV
    who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.
    Ephesians 1:14 NA28
    ὅ ἐστιν ἀρραβὼν τῆς κληρονομίας ἡμῶν, εἰς ἀπολύτρωσιν τῆς περιποιήσεως, εἰς ἔπαινον τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ.
    Understanding what is the inheritance in the saints, Ephesians 1:18
    Ephesians 1:18 NKJV
    the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
    Ephesians 1:18 NA28
    πεφωτισμένους τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς τῆς καρδίας [ὑμῶν] εἰς τὸ εἰδέναι ὑμᾶς τίς ἐστιν ἡ ἐλπὶς τῆς κλήσεως αὐτοῦ, τίς ὁ πλοῦτος τῆς δόξης τῆς κληρονομίας αὐτοῦ ἐν τοῖς ἁγίοις,
    Those who are not saved do not inherent, Ephesians 5:5
    Ephesians 5:5 NKJV
    For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
    Ephesians 5:5 NA28
    τοῦτο γὰρ ἴστε γινώσκοντες, ὅτι πᾶς πόρνος ἢ ἀκάθαρτος ἢ πλεονέκτης, ὅ ἐστιν εἰδωλολάτρης, οὐκ ἔχει κληρονομίαν ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ τοῦ Χριστοῦ καὶ θεοῦ.
    We receive it from the Lord, Colossians 3:24
    Colossians 3:24 NKJV
    knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.
    Colossians 3:24 NA28
    εἰδότες ὅτι ἀπὸ κυρίου ἀπολήμψεσθε τὴν ἀνταπόδοσιν τῆς κληρονομίας. τῷ κυρίῳ Χριστῷ δουλεύετε·
    He is the mediator of a new covenant, Hebrews 9:15
    Hebrews 9:15 NKJV
    And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.
    Hebrews 9:15 NA28
    Καὶ διὰ τοῦτο διαθήκης καινῆς μεσίτης ἐστίν, ὅπως θανάτου γενομένου εἰς ἀπολύτρωσιν τῶν ἐπὶ τῇ πρώτῃ διαθήκῃ παραβάσεων τὴν ἐπαγγελίαν λάβωσιν οἱ κεκλημένοι τῆς αἰωνίου κληρονομίας.
    An incorruptible inheritance, 1 Peter 1:4
    1 Peter 1:4 NKJV
    to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you,
    1 Peter 1:4 NA28
    εἰς κληρονομίαν ἄφθαρτον καὶ ἀμίαντον καὶ ἀμάραντον τετηρημένην ἐν οὐρανοῖς εἰς ὑμᾶς

    To Inherit

    Israel, Matthew 5:5
    Matthew 5:5 NKJV
    Blessed are the meek, For they shall inherit the earth.
    Matthew 5:5 NA28
    μακάριοι οἱ πραεῖς, ὅτι αὐτοὶ κληρονομήσουσιν τὴν γῆν.
    Inherit Eternal life, Matthew 19:29
    Matthew 19:29 NKJV
    And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My name’s sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and inherit eternal life.
    Matthew 19:29 NA28
    καὶ πᾶς ὅστις ἀφῆκεν οἰκίας ἢ ἀδελφοὺς ἢ ἀδελφὰς ἢ πατέρα ἢ μητέρα ἢ τέκνα ἢ ἀγροὺς ἕνεκεν τοῦ ὀνόματός μου, ἑκατονταπλασίονα λήμψεται καὶ ζωὴν αἰώνιον κληρονομήσει.
    What must be done to inherit eternal life, Matthew 10:17
    Matthew 10:17 NKJV
    But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues.
    Matthew 10:17 NA28
    Προσέχετε δὲ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀνθρώπων· παραδώσουσιν γὰρ ὑμᾶς εἰς συνέδρια καὶ ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς αὐτῶν μαστιγώσουσιν ὑμᾶς·
    The unrighteous will not inherit, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10
    1 Corinthians 6:9–10 NKJV
    Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.
    1 Corinthians 6:9–10 NA28
    Ἢ οὐκ οἴδατε ὅτι ἄδικοι θεοῦ βασιλείαν οὐ κληρονομήσουσιν; μὴ πλανᾶσθε· οὔτε πόρνοι οὔτε εἰδωλολάτραι οὔτε μοιχοὶ οὔτε μαλακοὶ οὔτε ἀρσενοκοῖται οὔτε κλέπται οὔτε πλεονέκται, οὐ μέθυσοι, οὐ λοίδοροι, οὐχ ἅρπαγες βασιλείαν θεοῦ κληρονομήσουσιν.
    Those who live by the sin nature do not inherit the Kingdom of God, Galatians 5:21
    Galatians 5:21 NKJV
    envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
    Galatians 5:21 NA28
    φθόνοι , μέθαι, κῶμοι καὶ τὰ ὅμοια τούτοις, ἃ προλέγω ὑμῖν, καθὼς προεῖπον ὅτι οἱ τὰ τοιαῦτα πράσσοντες βασιλείαν θεοῦ οὐ κληρονομήσουσιν.
    Flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God, 1 Corinthians 15:50
    1 Corinthians 15:50 NKJV
    Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption.
    1 Corinthians 15:50 NA28
    Τοῦτο δέ φημι, ἀδελφοί, ὅτι σὰρξ καὶ αἷμα βασιλείαν θεοῦ κληρονομῆσαι οὐ δύναται οὐδὲ ἡ φθορὰ τὴν ἀφθαρσίαν κληρονομεῖ.
    Angles Sent to Minister to Those Who will Inherit, Hebrews 1:14
    Hebrews 1:14 NKJV
    Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?

    ἵνα μὴ νωθροὶ γένησθε, μιμηταὶ δὲ τῶν διὰ πίστεως καὶ μακροθυμίας κληρονομούντων τὰς ἐπαγγελίας.
    Spiritual verse Physical, Hebrews 12:15-17
    Hebrews 12:15–17 NKJV
    looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled; lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright. For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.
    Hebrews 12:17 NA28
    ἴστε γὰρ ὅτι καὶ μετέπειτα θέλων κληρονομῆσαι τὴν εὐλογίαν ἀπεδοκιμάσθη, μετανοίας γὰρ τόπον οὐχ εὗρεν καίπερ μετὰ δακρύων ἐκζητήσας αὐτήν.
    Inheriting a Blessing , 1 Peter 3:9
    1 Peter 3:9 NKJV
    not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.

    μὴ ἀποδιδόντες κακὸν ἀντὶ κακοῦ ἢ λοιδορίαν ἀντὶ λοιδορίας, τοὐναντίον δὲ εὐλογοῦντες, ὅτι εἰς τοῦτο ἐκλήθητε, ἵνα εὐλογίαν κληρονομήσητε.
