Pilgrims And Strangers
God reached into the masses of lost humanity and chose from the Gentiles a people to Himself.
1 Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.
When The Lord called us to believe in Him, we were totally unworthy of His mercy and grace. What a difference it made in my life.
Instead of being partakers of the culture and mind set of this world, we are to attempt to share the culture and mind set of Heaven.
Until Jesus comes we'll be pilgrims and strangers in this world. We are surrounded by an alien culture that needs to hear the gospel, that needs to see His truth in our lives.
This world is not my home, I'm just a passin' through. My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue.
