    King David a Stranger in the Promised Land

    In harmony with these words, that they died in faith, not having received the promises, but confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth, we have the words of King David hundreds of years after the deliverance from Egypt, “I am a stranger with Thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.” 1Psalm 39:12.EVCO 123.1

    And when at the height of his power he delivered the kingdom to his son Solomon, in the presence of all the people, he said, “For we are strangers before Thee, and sojourners, as were all our fathers; our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is none abiding.” 21 Chronicles 29:15.EVCO 123.2

    The reason why this innumerable company did not receive the promised inheritance, is stated in these words: “God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.” 3Hebrews 11:40.EVCO 123.3
