A look at Reuben shows God’s grace to fallen man. While the promise passed to another, his position as firstborn was never erased. We, like Reuben, deserve to die for our sins, but because of Christ’s status for our faith, we become co-heirs, receiving the promise, the position, and the property – Christ in us, the hope of glory.

Romans 3:23 King James Version
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God
Genesis 49:1-4 King James Version
1 And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days.
2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father.
3 Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power:
4 Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel; because thou wentest up to thy father's bed; then defiledst thou it: he went up to my couch.
