Our Lord and God, you are worthy to receive glory and honor and power, because you have created all things, and by your will they exist and were created. (Revelation 4:11 CSB)
Abraham was confidently looking forward to a city with eternal foundations, a city designed and built by God. (Hebrews 11:10 NLT)
All these people died in faith, without having received the things they were promised. However, they saw them and welcomed them from afar. And they acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. Now those who say such things show that they are seeking a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, 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. (Hebrews 11:13-16 BSB)
A Christian's ultimate testimony is to testify that God always has his or her good in His mind. It will not be about how holy the Christian is and how good he or she is. Good deeds do not save a Christian. Bad deeds do not damn them. It is how God transform them should be the focus because it glorifies God.
