Tertullian, on Phil 3:20
Tertullian · c. A.D. 150–220
Phil 3:20 · Douay-Rheims
“But our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, our Lord Jesus Christ,”
On this verse:
“In this way also "shall strength be made perfect in weakness," -saving what is lost, reviving what is dead, healing what is stricken, curing what is faint, redeeming what is lost, freeing what is enslaved, recalling what has strayed, raising what is fallen; and this from earth to heaven, where, as the apostle teaches the Philippians, "we have our citizenship, from whence also we look for our Saviour Jesus Christ, who shall change our body of humiliation, that it may be fashioned like unto His glorious body" -of course after the resurrection, because Christ Himself was not glorified before He suffered.”
