Little Country Church on the edge of town

Do do do do do do

People coming every day from miles around

For meetings and for Sunday school

And it's very plain to see

It's not the way it used to be.

Welcome to the Word for today, featuring the Bible teaching ministry of Pastor Chuck Smith, founder of the Calvary Chapel Movement.

This radio program is a chapter by chapter verse by

study through the entire Bible. And on today's edition of the word for today, Pastor Chuck

continues his message, our citizenship is in heaven as we pick up in Philippians chapter 3, verse 21.

And now with today's study, here's Pastor Chuck.

Abraham and those saints of the Old Testament, the scripture said,

But they were looking for the city which hath foundation,

not possessing of the earth. Jesus, roamed the earth as an outcast. Didn't seek to possess anything of the earth.

Why?
