What inheritance do believers have according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Believers are promised an incorruptible inheritance of eternal life (1 Peter 1:4).

The Bible promises believers an inheritance that is 'incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven' (1 Peter 1:4). This inheritance is realized through the new birth that believers receive through Christ's resurrection. It signifies not just eternal life but also the fullness of life that comes from being united with Him. The assurance of this inheritance is grounded in God's mercy, emphasizing that it is not earned by human effort but is a gracious gift from God to His elect. This promise encourages believers to persevere in faith, knowing their future is secure in Christ’s victory over death.
