Christians live between two homes: our earthly home of a fallen, mortal body, and a promised and prepared heavenly home of a sinless, immortal body. Therefore, we are at the same time “at home” and “almost home.” This raises a question: In the meantime, how should we live? Paul answers this, instructing that Christians are to have:

1. A Confident Disposition (vv. 6–8)

2. A Concentrated Motivation (v. 9)

3. A Certain Expectation (10)
