We Have No Continuing City (Ronald Lawrence)

Summary

The sermon emphasizes the Christian's confidence in God and the spiritual significance of having no continuing city on earth, but rather seeking a heavenly city prepared by God. It explores the symbolism of altars in the Bible as acts of faith and worship, culminating in Christ as the ultimate altar and high priest. The preacher highlights the church as a solemn yet joyful place of refuge, peace, and unity, contrasting earthly cities with the eternal city of God. The message encourages believers to live as pilgrims and strangers on earth, looking forward to the eternal city built by God.
