"And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession, to the praise of His glory." Ephesians 1:13-14 (NIV)
In his letter to the Ephesian Christians, the Apostle Paul told them that from the very moment that they believed the gospel, they were saved and sealed by The Holy Spirit, and that they belonged to God just as he did. They were all just waiting to be redeemed and possessed by God.
As Christians, we are already bought and paid for, Jesus paid it all. The Holy Spirit has already wrapped us up and sealed us. We are now just awaiting delivery to our Father in heaven.
