SALVATION 1 Peter 1:3-5 Part 3 of 6

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time.

through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead 
1 Corinthians 15:20  But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
1 Peter 3:21-22  ... and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also--not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into heaven and is at God's right hand--with angels, authorities and powers in submission to him. 

and into an inheritance 
Acts 20:32  "Now I commit you to God and to the word of his grace, which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified."
Romans 8:17  Now if we are children, then we are heirs--heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.

that can never perish, spoil or fade 
1 Peter 5:4  And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away.
