Opening: I love that Hymn that reminds us of How we are spiritually cleansed.
What Can Wash Away Our Sin … Nothing But the Blood of Jesus.
I used to use soap and a wash cloth, but today I use a Irish Spring and a detailing brush.
That is what I use to clean the outside of my body.
What about the inside.
How can I be forgiven of my sin and cleansed.
Paul is don’t praying the Colossians to understand the His Will, to Walk worthy of Him, and to be fruitful.
Now Paul directs his attention to the understanding the spiritual transaction that is occured in the believer life.
He is theologically building the believer understanding.
Destined for Damnation Paul reveals we have been rescued by the BLOOD to redemption.. Paul and the Colossians were thankful and so should be be thankful.

We Have a Spiritual Inheritance vs 12
A. We have been made fit for Heaven “Meet”
1. God has “made us” - meaning that we qualify not because of any merit of our own.
We are spiritually dead unto God but made alive through Christ.
2. “Meet” - He has so changed us that we are fit for His Glory.
3.
He has fitted us with a new nature that make us functional in His presence.
A person who is unregenerate that enters Heaven would not be able to function because of the Nature.
Unfit!
No change in desires or nature.

He has changed us from the inside out.
B. We have Been Made Partakers of a New Inheritance.
1.
1.Partaker means - a part set aside for a specific purpose.

3. We are partakers of a special group … growing up we made a group that wore Jackets called Members Only.
The Jackets made us a part of the group.
4. Our “inheritance”- allotment is accordance to a will.
Have you every inherited something from someone that did something.
Same with out inheritance form Christ.
5.
In Heaven there is not darkness our inheritance is Heaven and all those with manifest light.
