Reasonable Theology Podcast Our Heavenly Citizenship: A Sermon on Philippians 3:20-4:3
In Pauls' letter to the Philippians, we find a profound analogy for Christians living in this world: just as the citizens of Philippi lived as Romans despite their geographical distance from Rome, believers are called to live as citizens of heaven while residing on earth.
The Philippians embraced Roman customs, language, and loyalty because they cherished the glory and power of Rome. Similarly, Christians must embrace the customs and values of their heavenly kingdom, prioritizing their allegiance to Christ above all earthly ties.
In this sermon we'll look at how this heavenly citizenship impacts our everyday lives as well as the relationships we build within the church, helping us focus on eternal things rather than getting caught up in the temporary concerns of this world.
