Pilgrims of the Kingdom: Living as Citizens of Heaven in a World Passing Away. - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Pilgrims of the Kingdom invites believers to rediscover one of Scripture's most profound truths: this world is not our home. In an age that celebrates comfort, success, and earthly security, the Bible calls Christians something radically different-strangers, sojourners, and pilgrims. We are citizens of heaven, journeying through a world that is passing away, following the Good Shepherd toward the everlasting City whose Builder and Maker is God. Drawing from the lives of Abraham, Moses, Israel in the wilderness, the prophets, the apostles, and above all Jesus Christ, this book presents the Christian life as a sacred pilgrimage. Every chapter explores a different stage of the journey-from leaving the familiar and learning to walk by faith, to enduring trials, resisting the spirit of Babylon, growing in holiness, encouraging fellow travellers, and living with joyful anticipation of Christ's return. Richly rooted in Scripture and enriched by the wisdom of faithful voices from church history, Pilgrims of the Kingdom offers both biblical depth and practical discipleship. Each chapter concludes with reflective questions, insights from Christian thinkers through the centuries, practical "Walking Orders," and a heartfelt "Pilgrim's Prayer," making this an ideal companion for personal devotion, small-group study, or spiritual formation. Whether you are taking your first steps of faith or have walked with Christ for many years, this book will remind you that every step of obedience has eternal significance. It will lift your eyes above the distractions of this passing age and fix your heart on the One who walks beside you, sustains you in every wilderness, and will one day welcome you into His eternal Kingdom. You are not home yet. Keep walking. The Shepherd is leading, the City awaits, and the King is coming.
