A Study of Faith Part 8 (Hebrews 11:13-16)
Bob Schultz, October 30, 2016Part of the Book of Hebrews series, preached at a Sunday Morning service
Today we will consider the great paradox of living between two worlds-earth and heaven as we grow in our faith, trusting God for what He has promised in the future -a better country.
Hebrews 11:13–16 (Listen)
13 These all died in faith, not having received the things promised, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. 14 For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland. 15 If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return. 16 But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.
