You are righteous, have a good heart, and cannot sin. You are holy and blessed forever. Jesus has sent you from heaven back to earth because Jesus has given you your inheritance. Your birthright as a child of God is eternal life. Your blessing is to inherit the earth. You have both your birthright and your blessing. You will never physically die.

To those who believe in Jesus and have been baptized – this is the good news – Salvation – the forgiveness of sins Matthew 1:21 you shall call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. Luke 9:56 the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. Mark 16:16 He that believes and is baptized shall be saved. Acts 2:38-39 Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the LORD our God shall call. Acts 5:30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you slew and hanged on a tree. 5:31 Him has God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Savior, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. 5:32 And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to them that obey him. Psalm 149:4 the LORD takes pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation. Hebrews 5:8 Though Jesus were a Son, yet he learned obedience by the things which he suffered; 5:9 and being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; 5:10 called of God a high priest after the order of Melchisedec. Titus 3:5-6 according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Spirit; which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior
You died in baptism, you were translated into heaven, and are now immortal and incorruptible. You died in baptism Romans 6:3 Know you not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Romans 6:6 our old man is crucified with Christ, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 6:7 For he that is dead is freed from sin. Romans 6:4 we are buried with Christ by baptism into death
You are resurrected in baptism Colossians 2:10,12 You are complete in Christ … buried with him in baptism, wherein also you are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who has raised him from the dead. Ephesians 2:4 God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, has quickened us together with Christ, (by grace you are saved;) 2:6 And has raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 2:7 That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. 2 Corinthians 5:17-18 if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who has reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ Galatians 6:14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. 6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision avails anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
You were translated into heaven Colossians 1:13 the Father has delivered us from the power of darkness, and has translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 1:14 in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins. Translate – to convey into heaven without death. The Father has delivered us from the power of darkness and has conveyed us into heaven without death into the kingdom of his dear Son, in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins.
You are now immortal and incorruptible Psalms 49:6 They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches, 49:7 none of them can by any means redeem his brother, 49:9 that he should still live forever, and not see corruption. What is redemption? You live forever and do not see corruption. Hebrews 9:12 by his own blood Jesus Christ entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. We have redemption through the blood of Jesus, we live forever and do not see corruption. Jesus gives us immortality and incorruptibility. Galatians 4:3 we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: 4:4 but when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 4:5 to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. 4:6 And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Titus 2:14 our Savior Jesus Christ gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. Isaiah 62:12 they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD Acts 13:22 God raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfill all my will. 13:23 Of this man's seed has God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Savior, Jesus: 13:26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you fears God, to you is the word of this salvation sent. 13:27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him. 13:28 And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain. 13:29 And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre. 13:30 But God raised him from the dead: 13:31 And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people. 13:32 And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers, 13:33 God has fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he has raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. 13:34 And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David. 13:35 Wherefore he said also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. 13:36 For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption: 13:37 But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption. 13:38 Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.
You are righteous, have a good heart, and cannot sin. You are holy and blessed forever. You have been freed from sin Matthew 1:21 you shall call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. John 1:29 The next day John sees Jesus coming unto him, and said, Behold the Lamb of God, which takes away the sin of the world. Hebrews 1:3 when Jesus had by himself purged our sins, he sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high Acts 22:16 And now why do you tarry? Arise, and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord. Romans 6:6 our old man is crucified with Christ, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 6:7 For he that is dead is freed from sin. Isaiah 38:17 thou has in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou has cast all my sins behind thy back. Romans 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, you have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:18 Being then made free from sin, you became the servants of righteousness.
You are righteous Romans 3:21 now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; 3:22 even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe 1 John 5:17 All unrighteousness is sin Acts 22:16 And now why do you tarry? Arise, and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord. 1 Corinthians 6:11 you are washed, you are sanctified, you are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. Titus 3:5 according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Spirit; 3:6 which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior; 3:7 that being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. Romans 6:18 Being then made free from sin, you became the servants of righteousness. Romans 5:17 they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ
You have a good heart Ezekiel 18:30 I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, says the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. 18:31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby you have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will you die, O house of Israel? 18:32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dies, says the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and you live. Ezekiel 36:24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land. 36:25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you. 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. 36:27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and you shall keep my judgments, and do them. Acts 15:7 Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, you know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe. 15:8 And God, which knows the hearts, bore them witness, giving them the Holy Spirit, even as he did unto us; 15:9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith. Luke 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. 8:15 that on the good ground are they, which in a honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience. Luke 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks. 6:43 For a good tree brings not forth corrupt fruit; neither does a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 6:44 For every tree is known by his own fruit.
You cannot sin 1 John 5:1 Whosoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God. 1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God does not commit sin; for his seed remains in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 1 John 3:6 Whosoever abides in him sins not: whosoever sins has not seen him, neither known him.
You are holy and blessed forever. Leviticus 11:44 I am the LORD your God: you shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and you shall be holy; for I am holy Hebrews 10:10 we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ Hebrews 10:14 by one offering he has perfected forever them that are sanctified Luke 6:40 The disciple is not above his master: but everyone that is perfect shall be as his master.
Isaiah 62:12 they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD 1 Thessalonians 4:3 this is the will of God, even your sanctification 1 Thessalonians 4:7 God has called us unto holiness. John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14 God has from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Chronicles 17:26 And now, LORD, thou art God, and has promised this goodness unto thy servant: 17:27 Now therefore let it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be before thee forever: for thou blesses, O LORD, and it shall be blessed forever. John 20:29 Jesus said unto him, Thomas, because thou has seen me, thou has believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. Luke 24:50 And Jesus led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them. 24:51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.
Jesus has sent you from heaven back to earth because Jesus has given you your inheritance. John 17:15 [Jesus speaking] I pray not that thou should take them out of the world, but that thou should keep them from the evil. 17:16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 17:18 As thou has sent me into the world, even so I have also sent them into the world.
Your birthright as a child of God is eternal life. Your blessing is to inherit the earth. You have both your birthright and your blessing. John 20:29 Jesus said unto him, Thomas, because thou has seen me, thou has believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. Mathew 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Psalm 37:22 For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off. Romans 6:23 the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
You will never physically die. John 8:51 Truly, Truly, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death. John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never die, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 2 Timothy 1:10 our Savior Jesus Christ has abolished death, and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel 1 John 5:11 God has given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 5:12 He that has the Son has life. John 5:24 [Jesus said,] Truly, Truly, I say unto you, He that hears my word, and believes on him that sent me, has everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. Revelation 21:6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is thirsty of the fountain of the water of life freely. Psalm 29:11 The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace. Proverbs 12:28 In the way of righteousness is life: and in the pathway thereof there is no death. Romans 6:5 if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Romans 6:8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: Romans 6:9 Christ being raised from the dead dies no more; death has no more dominion over him. 6:10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he lives, he lives unto God. 6:11 Likewise reckon you also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
You have inherited the earth and will remain forever upon it. Psalm 37:29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein forever. Mathew 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Psalm 37:11 the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
You are no longer a man, you are now a child of God. You are no longer a man Psalm 82:6 I have said, You are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. John 1:12-13 as many as received Jesus, to them he gave power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: who were born of God. 2 Corinthians 5:17-18 if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who has reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ
You are now a child of God Galatians 3:26 For you are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. Romans 6:5 if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Hebrews 2:11-13 both he that sanctifies and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause Jesus is not ashamed to call them brethren, saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church I will sing praise unto thee. And again, Behold I and the children which God has given me. 1 Corinthians 1:30 But of God are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 1:31 that, according as it is written, He that glories, let him glory in the Lord.
The Father and the Son are with you. 2 John 1:9 He that abides in the doctrine of Christ, he has both the Father and the Son.
You have receive the kingdom of God on earth. Luke 17:20 And when Jesus was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God comes not with observation: 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. Luke 12:32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
