What the Fathers say
Eastern Fathers
Theophylact of Ohrid
If the inheritance is in heaven, then the revelation of a millennial kingdom on earth is a lie.
Oecumenius
In an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance, and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you If there is an inheritance in heaven, the restoration of things is magnificent in a thousand years.
Western Saints
Bede
Kept in heaven for you. Kept in you he says, instead of saying, kept for you, that is, kept now for this purpose, that it might be bestowed on you in heaven at the appointed time. Or certainly kept in heaven in you, because He who gave believers the power to become children of God (John 1), gave them the power to receive that inheritance in heaven, by persevering until the end to be saved. …
Hippolytus of Rome
The Father of immortality sent the immortal Son and Word into the world, who came to man in order to wash him with water and the Spirit; and He, begetting us again to in corruption of soul and body, breathed into us the breath (spirit) of life, and endued us with an incorruptible panoply. If, therefore, man has become immortal, he will also be God.
