                      Do you belong to the kingdom of the Father? Otherwise,

                      do you belong to the land, or to the world? This sense of
                      belonging should be obvious. It means that the sense of

                      belonging should be definitely established. Philippians 3:20
                      says, But our citizenship is in heaven. That is why a person

                      who is born again clearly knows where he belongs. Even if
                      a person from California lives in Texas, he knows clearly

                      he is from California, doesn’t he? And even if a person
                      from New York City goes to Los Angeles, he knows clearly

                      that he is a person from New York City. Even if he goes

                      abroad, he can never forget about being American until
                      he dies. Like this, if you are born again, you know for sure
                      what you belong to and where you belong, and you have

                      to clarify your belonging. You should do clearly. Since the

                      kingdom of heaven is the place where the Father who gave
                      birth to you resides, you definitely know the Father’s house
                      is your home to where you should return.

                           You know what? No matter how good someone

                      else’s house is, we can’t stay for more than a few days.
                      For what reason is that? Because it is uncomfortable, un-

                      comfortable! No matter how comfortable it is, you are not
                      comfortable. But even if your house is an incomparably

                      shabby, you feel your house is comfortable. And you feel
                      free. If you are born again in this way, you will know that
