Hebrews 11:13 (b) This name is applied to the Christian's attitude toward the world. Though he lives in it, he is not a part of it. He is only occupied with its affairs insofar as this is necessary for proper living. The Christian belongs to Heaven. His hopes and ambitions are for the other world. He is a citizen of GOD's kingdom. The Saviour explains this fully in His prayer in joh17. (See also1Pe 2:11).
