Hebrews 11:14-16 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

          14Now those who say such things show that they are seeking a country of their own.
          15If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return.
          16Instead, they were longing for a better country, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.
