Citizens of Heaven
About citizens of heaven
In a rapidly changing cultural landscape, it's easy to feel lost or overwhelmed. From political shifts to social challenges, the question of navigating life as a follower of Christ has never been more pressing. In this series, "Citizens of Heaven," we will explore what it means to live under the sovereignty of God while residing in a world that often seems at odds with His Kingdom.
We will dive into God’s perspective on politics, citizenship, and our responsibilities as Christians. Through this journey, we will seek to understand our true identity as citizens of Heaven and how this shapes our interaction with the world around us.
We will tackle questions such as:
What does it mean to serve a new King, Jesus Christ, and how does that affect our allegiance to earthly authorities?
How should we, as citizens of Heaven, engage with our worldly governments?
What is our responsibility towards the lost, and how can we reflect Christ's love in a world that often opposes His teachings?
How can we foster unity within the body of Christ amidst diverse opinions and backgrounds?
“But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.” — Philippians 3:20-21
Throughout this series, we will be reminded that our ultimate hope is not found in political systems or earthly power but in the eternal Kingdom of God. We will also confront the challenging reality that, as Christians, we are called to live counter-culturally—seeking the welfare of our cities while also recognizing that our true home lies beyond this world.
Join us as we realign our hearts and minds with the truth of God's Word, rediscover our place in His story, and learn what it truly means to be "Citizens of Heaven."
