1 Corinthians 6:9
King James Version
6 Jun 2026
“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,”
κληρονομέω
To inherit, to receive as an inheritance. Kleronomeo. Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth. Inheritance comes through relationship not achievement. Sons receive what servants cannot.
