  161. Not many man made gods. His life was based on God's law,

  173. In this world, we are surrounded by all kinds of ungodly people

  174. who are apathetic to our God and our Saviour Jesus Christ and the

  175. Scriptures, if not hate them outright.

  176. When Abraham made his pilgrimage from or to Canaan, the church

  177. was made-up of himself, his wife Sarah and his nephew Lot.

  178. During their sojourn in Canaan, their lives were marred by

  179. oppositions from the Sinful World.

  180. Dalawang, powerful men and Katilana, encounters of the pair

  181. of Egypt and Amy Ballet, the king of Gerard, had sinful

  193. Old Christian churches, evil men and culture surrounding us is

  194. not the only cause of trouble in the church.

  195. Troubles can also come from a sinful selves.

  196. How did Lot end up in Sodom? It was because of the abundance

  197. source of water and grassland not suitable para maging

  198. pastureland, the own Sodom. It was all about the water

  199. rights and the grazing rights that he had.

  200. Both Abraham and Lot had great flocks of and herds and that the

  201. land could not support them, so the land chooses to the closest

  202. to the city. Particularly in Sodom, Abraham

  203. gave Blood the first choice. And lots Mindset was earthly,

  204. being Illini lot young Saddam, even when more when he most

  205. likely knew that the men of Sodom were wicked great sinners

  206. against the Lord. According to Galatians 1313, Lot

  207. was overcome by the desires of the flesh and the desires of the

  208. eyes and the pride in possessions.

  209. First Gen. 216 Magkapatid As believers and as a church,

  210. especially as a new church like us, we must guard against this

  211. material desires and pride. We might not have a big or

  227. and pride. An incident in the life of

  228. Abraham had a striking parallel also to the most major events in

  229. the Garden of Eden. After the serpent tempted Eve,

  230. Nathi alumni Natin Eve gave the forbidden fruit to Adam To Adam,

  231. so he also ate the fruit. When God confronted them, the

  232. age-old blame shifting started. Adam blame Eve for giving the

  233. fruit to him. Likewise, Eve blamed the serpent

  234. in case of Abraham. Sarah offered her servant Hagar

  235. to him so that he could bear a son for him, and Abraham

  236. willingly accepted her offer. After Ishmael was born of Hagar,

  237. and Hagar had contempt for Sarah, Sarah Blim, Abraham for

  238. her troubles. Like Adam and Eve, both Adam,

  239. both Abraham and Sarah had sinned.

  240. Abraham listened to the voice of Sarah in Genesis 6 two and Adam

  241. in in effect also listen to Eve Sinful offer.

  242. Both of them took God's promises into their hands doubting

  243. hearts, and had a disastrous consequence that Napoleon

  250. teachers, false prophets, and heretics have been around in the

  251. Old Covenant Israel and in the New Covenant.

  252. The early Church from the first six or seven centuries was beset

  277. doubted God's promises with its dire consequences, he was a

  278. faithful and obedient man of God all the way to the end.

  279. He fought against the sinful culture surrounding him because

  280. he was looking forward to God's heavenly country.

  281. Don't Nakato on. We too must be counter cultural

  282. in a way in this world, but not of this world.

  283. He was truly set apart by God to be holy and righteous, different

  284. from the godless world around him.

  285. Nay, we reflect this set apartness by our mindset and our

  286. behaviour among our unbelieving neighbors.

  287. Mathy. So they too would ask why we

  288. think we behave so differently from them.

  289. Not a Gaya. Nabina Bangets first Peter 315

  290. the the Church, then and now is God's chosen people who live on

  291. this earth, surrounded by a sinful, godless world and

  292. culture and desiring to live in an eternal, better country.

  293. It's second point, not in Pong Abdulai Bulaan.

  294. We have the citizenship and that is in heaven.

  295. Abraham obeyed because of God's promise of a land, but

  296. ultimately his gaze was heavenward.

  297. He was looking forward to a city that has foundations, whose

  298. designer and builder is God, and his desire was a better country

  299. that is a heavenly. 1. The heavenly city is a new

  300. heaven and new earth according to Revelations 21 verse one to

  301. two. Its foundations are the

  302. teachings of the 12 Apostles of Christ and his prophets,

  303. according to Revelation 21, verse 14 and Deficience 220.

    Revelation 21:14

  304. But the main foundation is Christ himself, the cheap

  305. cornerstone of the Church. Efficiency 220.

  306. As the hymn says, the Church is 1.

  307. Foundation is Jesus Christ. Her Lord God is the only

  308. designer and builder of the Church.

  309. He has the same time an architect and engineer, a

  310. building contractor of the church.

  311. If not, if God is not the foundation, If God is not the

  312. designer and the builder and the at a time that preserves a

  313. church, then it is not a church. Although we are citizens of our

  314. earthly countries, we desire and look forward to have better

  315. citizenship in a better country where we live and dwell with God

  316. forever. All people in the country will

  317. be of 1 faith. All the people in that country

  318. will be of 1, Lord, one mind, and all will be in a perfect

  319. communion with God and with one another.

  320. No more conflicts we didn't God's freefall, and no more

  321. sufferings, persecutions and death.

  322. No more living in tents and campers.

  323. There were would Don Tire, darating of pupunta.

  324. We are no longer aliens or strangers or straighteners or

  325. pilgrims, but a full fledge. Citizens of heaven Bhagam Matayo

  328. neto John Iyang language Nice samurai Niran like Abraham.

  329. All true believers must look forward to their final home,

  330. God's holy and heavenly city. God also calls us to live like

  331. Abraham Guy in the Canyon. Getawa don't Sakanya earthly

  332. pilgrimage, but our ultimate gaze must always be our eternal

  333. residence, the heavenly city, according to Hebrews 11/9

  334. Through. Though we live in our own homes

  335. and our own cars with our earthly possessions, we must

  336. acknowledge that all of these are temporary and are passing

  337. away. That was first.

  338. John's Chapter 2 verse 16 to 17 says we are dual citizens of

  339. heaven first and citizens of our nation second.

  340. I should think of your life as pilgrims through this barren

  341. land Colossians 3122 exhorts us and Sapudu on.

  342. If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things

  343. that are above, where crisis, seated at the right hand of God.

  344. Set your mind, or the things that are above and not on the

  345. things that are on earth. We are often too occupied, then

  346. to focus on the cares, thorns, and diesels of our earthly

  347. existence. Rather, we we are to look

  348. heavenward, because everything on earth will be up, no value.

  349. Only things that are above matters in eternity.

  350. Again in Romans 85, Apostle Paul Live reminds us, for those who

  351. live according to the flesh set their minds to the things of the

  352. flesh. But for those who live according

  353. to the Spirit, set their minds on the things of the Spirit.

  354. Sapana honka Gaya Nitro natayo I.

  355. The number hands Adios. We are transformed from earthly

  356. pilgrims to heavenly citizens. In this great reversal, all

  357. unbelieving citizens of the world become the foreigners, the

  358. aliens, the strangers. While we who worship the true

  359. God now are changed into permanent citizens of a better

  360. holy and heavenly country, we have the foretaste of heaven.

  361. So, brothers and sisters, Peter says that we Christians are

  362. sojourners and exiles in this world.

  363. We are temporary residents of this world and exiles in a

  364. foreign country. We must fully participate in the

  365. civil, social and cultural life of the cities and nations.

  366. We have no enduring earthly city but citizens of heaven.

  367. Therefore we are dual citizens of two kingdoms, the earthly

  368. kingdoms of man and the heavenly Kingdom of God.

  369. But our ultimate citizenship is in heaven, so we also see

  370. ourselves as only sojourners, exiles, aliens and strangers in

  371. this world. Yaman Natutunan, Natin, Nanka

  375. We are to be united in one Lord and one faith, and we have to

  376. obey God's commandment. And we have to repent whenever

  377. we sin, to hear the Word of God read and preach, to partake of

  378. the sacraments, to pray for the Church for one another and for

  379. our civil authorities. And to use our spiritual gifts

  380. for the building of the Church. To guard the Church from all

  381. false teachings from errors and divisions, and to live godly and

  382. holy lives. And lastly to witness to the
