James 2:5 indicate that those from the poor class in relation to this world who place their trust in Christ as Savior are chosen by God to be rich in relation to His kingdom. Regardless of their poor status in the realm of this world, they possess an abundantly rich status in the realm of faith. Indeed, every one of us who are the children of God through faith in Christ are spiritually rich in the realm of faith. These spiritual riches may be considered from two perspectives. First, we may consider our spiritual riches in the realm of faith in relation to our eternal salvation. Second, we may consider our spiritual riches in the realm of faith in relation to our daily walk. So then, in this first part of the message, let us consider the first of these truths – Our spiritual riches in relation to our eternal salvation.
We believers are enriched through faith in Christ with the rich treasure of: 1. Eternal salvation from our sinfulness and its condemnation. 2. Eternal regeneration as the very children and people of God. 3. An eternal spiritual life that is created and shall ever be maintained by the power of God.
