What does the Bible say about heavenly citizenship?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible teaches that believers are granted citizenship in heaven, as they renounce their allegiance to this world.

The concept of heavenly citizenship is rooted in the belief that God's chosen people are called out of this world to belong to a heavenly kingdom. This is evident in passages that highlight God's eternal purpose for His people, whom He loved before the foundation of the world. Such citizens of the heavenly realm have renounced their ties to this earth, recognizing that their true home is in the kingdom of God, marked by the transformative work of Christ in their lives.
