Colossians 1:12 Giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you for a share of the allotted portion of the saints in the light;
If we read the book of Colossians carefully, we will realize that the portion of the saints is Christ Himself. Christ is our portion, and we partake of Him. We need to be clear that in eternity past God the Father predestinated us to partake of Christ and Christ alone. It is God' intention that we would partake of nothing other than Christ Himself.
