Eternal Life Is Not A Birthright Of Humanity
It Is An Inheritance Obtained By Grace Through Faith


Acts 20:32 So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word
of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance
among all those who are sanctified.


Acts 26:18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light,
and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive
forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are
sanctified by faith that is in me.


Ephesians 1:
11
In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according
to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will,
12 that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory.
13 In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of
your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy
Spirit of promise,
14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the
purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.


Hebrews 9:15 And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant,
by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant,
that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

1 Peter 1:
3
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His
abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the
resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 to an inheritance
incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away,
reserved in heaven for you,
5 who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be
revealed in the last time
.

Revelation 21:
7
He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son.
8 But the cowardly unbeliever, the abominable murderer, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.

the one that is taken, never was ... it being this other we are not but a serpent we choose as a needful part of the process of our souls journey of a there and back ...

Job does not get a new wife/soul but new children/thoughts ...
Pertaining to the topic, does the narrative of Job pertain to birthright or inheritance?
I would say Job has more to do with visitation(assessment),
which is not often discussed in the forum.
Job 10:12 Thou hast granted me life and favor, and Thy visitation hath preserved my spirit.

Is it the Birthright of the born again?
The birthright belongs to the firstborn. Christ Jesus, the Son of God, firstborn of all creation
and the firstborn from the dead.
The born again believers receive an inheritance by the Spirit of Adoption, the promise of
the Father.
Two distinct, but closely related ideas. To partake of the inheritance, you must, as you
have so stated, be born again from above. Your faith has made you whole!
