Faith in a Foreign Land

There is never a conflict between biblical faith and facts, but there may be times in our lives when faith demands our hope in God’s promises, shown in actions that are at odds with our circumstances, feelings, or the best advice of those around us. In this passage, the author explains what it meant for saints of the Old Covenant to live by faith in a place not their own. By examining their actions, and the faith that motivated those actions, the author helps his audience, and modern saints today - who are sojourners as well - walk through the foreign land of life with a confident hope in the God who has promised that His Son will one day return with a new home in tow.
