They said in effect, "This is the heir: come let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours." Mark 12:7 . Christ is appointed by God to be heir of all things. Hebrews 1:2 . Believers are by grace made sons through Christ, hence heirs, heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ. Romans 8:17; Galatians 4:7; cf. John 17:22 .
