Php 3:20-21 But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, (21) who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.
It is essential to learn about evil – growing wise to it. This world is fallen. It is the darkness of the enemy and its citizens are darkness. We once were there with them:
Eph 5:8 for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light
Wisdom about evil does not mean gazing at it, thinking about it, dwelling upon it. To do so is to be overcome. Our victory in Christ is lived out by faith – believing His promises and setting our eyes up there, not down here.
If you are born again, you are in Christ and being in Him means you are a citizen of heaven. This world is not your home. You will never be truly at home until you are in the New Heavens and Earth. In Christ you are already there….there, but not yet. So don’t look down. Look up along with all of us who love His appearing and eagerly await that Day when He comes.
