Christians are pilgrims "just passing through" this world, not permanent residents.
Key Points:
•Divine Dissatisfaction - God places a holy restlessness in believers' hearts that cannot be satisfied by earthly things, pointing them toward their true home in heaven
•God's Refining Purpose - Trials, afflictions, and unexplained battles often come from God to prevent believers from becoming too rooted in this world, similar to how he increased Israel's suffering in Egypt before the Exodus
•Pilgrims and Strangers - Following Abraham's example, Christians should confess they are temporary residents seeking a heavenly country, not citizens of this earth
•Abstaining from Fleshly Lusts - True pilgrims must deal with hidden sins (pornography, addiction, unforgiveness, etc.) that anchor them to this world and hinder spiritual freedom
•Readiness for Christ's Return - The sermon urgently warns that Jesus could return at any moment, and believers must be spiritually prepared, not bound by unrepented sin
•Holy Ghost Empowerment - Victory over sin comes not through human willpower but by surrendering to God's power and allowing the Holy Spirit to create hatred for sin
