Citizens of Heaven
by Dr. Kenneth Chadwick

We are bombarded on all sides these days with political messages. Elect me and I will bring in the millennial reign. I know what is wrong and I can fix it better than anyone else. Promises, promises and more promises is what we are fed on a regular basis.

 What is wrong with America cannot be fixed by the Democrats or the Republicans separately or collectively. What is wrong is sin and needs a sin solution. The solution is found in one person alone. That was the person Jesus Christ who died and was raised on Easter Sunday.

I am not saying that you should not vote and vote wisely. What I am saying is that a political solution will not solve a spiritual problem. Col 3:1 “So if you have been raised with the Messiah, seek what is above, where the Messiah is, seated at the right hand of God.” He was raised from the dead and in baptism we have been raised with him we need to seek the things of God. We are citizens of another country and are not of this earth. Php 3:20 “but our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.”
