Hebrews 11:13-16
13aAll these died in faith, bwithout receiving the promises, but chaving seen them and having welcomed them from a distance, and dhaving confessed that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. 14For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own. 15And indeed if they had been remembering that country from which they went out, athey would have had opportunity to return. 16But now, they aspire to a better country, that is, a aheavenly one. Therefore bGod is not 1ashamed to be ccalled their God, for dHe prepared a city for them.
