Titus 3:7

...that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (Titus 3:7)

Three points:

1. Justified by His grace

We do not deserve or have any right to be justified--being viewed by God as never have sinned. It is not by our works, but it is logical.
His grace is receiving what we don't deserve.

2. Become heirs

Jesus is the Son of God. He has chosen for us to receive part of His inheritance. Talk about not being selfish.

3. Hope of eternal life

This is not living in this sin cursed world with sickness and suffering; it is living in heaven.

All of this will happen, because Jesus Christ suffered for our sins, and we have confessed our sins, believed and asked Him to forgive us.
