Put On Christ - Galations 3:25-29

Galatians 3:25-29 ESV 
But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian, for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith. For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise.

We are sons of God and the offspring of Abraham. We are one in Christ, and therefore heirs according to the promise. Differences dissolve in the divine. 

We put on Christ on the inside. This is where the Spirit of Christ gives birth to a new and reborn creature, a spirit made alive that will inherit the new earth when we are joined with immortal bodies. The new earth begins in us. 

The union of heaven and earth will be complete when He returns.
