Does My Character Reflect My Heavenly Citizenship?
WatchListen

As a born-again believer, I hold a dual citizenship; I am a citizen of the United States of America, but I am also a citizen of Heaven.  No doubt, on a daily basis, the way we live our lives in freedom reflects our American citizenship. But more importantly, the way we do life on a daily basis should reflect our Heavenly citizenship.  As a new creation in Christ Jesus and a citizen of Heaven, it should be obvious to the world that we are pilgrims and strangers here on earth.  We are simply passing through; our destination is God’s Holy City!

Does My Character Reflect My Heavenly Citizenship?

Philippians 2:19-30

  1.  Because I am a Citizen of Heaven, I should be Characterized by Compassion  (Vss. 19-21)
  2.  Because I am a Citizen of Heaven, I Should be Characterized by a Servant’s Heart  (Vss. 22-24)
  3.  Because I am a Citizen of Heaven, I Should be Characterized by Living On-Mission  (Vs. 25)
  4.  Because I am a Citizen of Heaven, I Should be Characterized by Living Radically for Christ  (Vss. 26-30)
