Episode 204 - Our Conversation Is in Heaven

If you’ve ever traveled to another country, you know what it feels like to be a visitor.The scenery may be beautiful.The people may be welcoming.But deep inside, you know you’re not home.There are different customs.Different laws.Different ways of thinking.No matter how long you stay, your citizenship belongs somewhere else.Paul uses that very idea to describe the Christian life.The believers in Philippi understood citizenship well.Many of them lived in a Roman colony and enjoyed the privileges that came with being citizens of Rome.But Paul gently lifts their eyes to something even greater.He reminds them that the truest identity of every believer is not found in an earthly nation.It’s found in the Kingdom of God.
