"The city having real foundations" is God's Kingdom, which lasts forever, and we seek it because it offers true hope and security beyond this temporary world.
3. What is “the city having real foundations,” and why do we seek it?
3 Christians who decided to abandon Jerusalem and Judea likely faced reproach and ridicule, but that decision saved their lives. Today we are mocked because we do not place our trust in humans or seek a secure and comfortable life in this world. Why, then, do we make that choice? We know that this system of things is temporary. We are seeking “the city having real foundations,” that is, “the one to come,” God’s Kingdom. (Heb. 11:10; Matt. 6:33) Each subheading in this article will consider: (1) how Paul’s inspired counsel helped first-century Christians to keep seeking “the [city] to come,” (2) how Paul prepared them for future events, and (3) how his counsel helps us today.
