A Heavenly Citizenship
For our citizenship is in heaven.
Philippians 3:20 Scripture reading: Philippians 3
The law is truly “our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith” (Gal. 3:24). I am glad that laws are established on the earth. Law is good when it helps to keep things in order in society.
We belong to a higher, nobler citizenship, and it isn’t an earthly citizenship, for “our citizenship is in heaven” (Phil. 3:20). So we must see that there is an excellent glory about this position we are holding in Christ. For if the natural law will keep an earthly city in somewhat moderate conditions, what will the excellent glory be in the divine relationship of the citizenship to which we belong? Amen
