James 5:11 (KJV) Joint Heirs


James 5:11 (KJV)
Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
Notice that it is not the end of Job that is mentioned but the end of the Lord. The key to understanding the blessing of Job is not what the Bible says he received after his afflictions, though they were impressive. The key is to see what the Bible says is the end of the Lord:
  • Resurrection 
  • Glorification
  • In the presence of His Heavenly Father 
  • His throne
  • His power 
  • His Eternal being
And then to see that we, who are believers, are joint-heirs.
1 John 3:2
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
