He gave us everything that was His; everything, including His life! If a man writes in his will and says, “ I’ve given you everything I have, ” it’ll be wise to find out what he had. In our theme verse, Paul the Apostle, by the revelation of the Spirit, gives a description of
what he was sent to preach about this last disposition, which is the description of the wealth of Jesus that He bequeathed to us—what we have in the will! He called it “ ...boundless, fathomless, incalculable, and exhaustless riches of Christ [wealth which no human being could have searched out]. ” How refreshing! In Colossians 1:12, the Bible says, “ Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light. ” Thus, the Father has qualified us to be partakers of the riches of Christ.
