What does it mean to be an heir of salvation?

An heir of salvation is someone who, through faith in Jesus Christ, becomes part of God's family and is entitled to the promises outlined in Scripture. Galatians 3:26-29 states, 'For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.' This relationship grants believers access to spiritual riches and eternal life, fulfilling the promise that we will be joint-heirs with Christ. Being an heir means that the believer is not just saved from sin but is also granted a place in God's kingdom, participating in the fullness of His grace and glory.
