How are we to become joint heirs with

Christ
as he became Son of God?

If we brethren are to become sons and daughters of God; we must be born


again of a spiritual body (1 Corinthians 15:42-44) as was Jesus when he was
resurrected by the Father (Galatians 1:1) which began the process of him
becoming the Son of God. Remember Jesus is the firstborn of the dead
(Colossians 1:18).

Therefore let us continue to seek the scriptures of when Jesus was glorified
as the Son of God by the Father. ***Here are a few Hints***

2 Peter 1:16-20
16For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known
unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were
eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came
such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in
whom I am well pleased.
18And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him
in the holy mount.

Acts 2:33-35
33Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of
the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye
now see and hear.
34For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord
said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
35Until I make thy foes thy footstool.

Ok let us go to John 20:17 and see that Jesus (Passover Lamb) must appear
before the Father without blemish (Leviticus 23:5,11-12). After his
resurrection, Jesus now must take away the sins of the world (John 1:29) to
an uninhabited place (Leviticus 16:22) which is heaven, otherwise the sins of
the world remain with us.

Just as in the days of Moses animal sacrifice was the law until the coming of
our Lord Jesus was fulfilled (Matthew 5:17). After his resurrection, he became
the wave offering as in Leviticus 23:11-12 to be presented before the Father
his Redeemer (1 Peter 1:17-21) for acceptance to be declared Son of God
sitting on the Right hand of the Father's throne.

Now lets see when Jesus ascended into heaven to be restored to becoming
Son of God.

17 "Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my
Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father,
and your Father; and to my God, and your God.”

19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the
doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews,
came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

Jesus returns from heaven after taking away the sins of the world for all who
believe in him and was first seen by his disciples saying that his Father sent
him which takes place after he was restored to the Father's throne as Son of
God.

20 And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side.
Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the LORD.

21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent
me, even so send I you. 22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them,
and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost: 23 Whose soever sins ye
remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they
are retained.

The death of Jesus (Son of Man) has fulfilled prophecy of him being the
firstborn of the dead (Revelation 1:1-5) raised with a spiritual body before he
ascended to heaven and sat on the right hand of the Father's throne

becoming the Son of God. Jesus is restored to the God Family. (Hebrews
12:2, Acts 7:55-56)
