The Christian life is a pilgrim life. As followers of Christ, we are citizens of another land. This place is not our home, but we are traveling from this world to the next. This session will focus on 1 Peter 2:9-12 9 But ye are a elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for `God's' own possession, that ye may show forth the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: 10 who in time past were no people, but now are the people of God: who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. 11 Beloved, I beseech you as sojourners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lust, which war against the soul; 12 having your behavior seemly among the Gentiles; that, wherein they speak against you as evil-doers, they may by your good works, which they behold, glorify God in the day of visitation. to explain what it means for the church to be "sojourners and exiles."
