Everlasting Hope

Romans 3:10, "As it is written, 'There is no one righteous, not even one.' " Our great hope is that Jesus Christ bore our sins upon the cross and those believing in His gift of salvation are made righteous.

                                          *

II Corinthians 5 :21, "Him (Jesus) Who knew no sin, He made (to be) sin on our behalf so that through Him we could become righteousness for GOD!" Christ took upon Him the sins of humanity! Only GOD in the flesh of Christ Jesus could take billions of people (from Adam and Eve to the last person He will create) quadrillions of sins upon Him and resurrect from the dead so that those believing in Him will be resurrected to Eternal Life with Him!

                                         *

In January I shared Almighty GOD's joy. In February it was His amazing Love. March was His peace that passes man's understanding. April was the hope that is given to those who know His great gift of salvation!

                                         *

In May I will share About the Faithfulness of our Awesome, Almighty, Creator, Savior, Holy Father GOD!

 

 



Hope Brings One to Lift Up Praise to Almighty GOD!

Hope brings the joy of the LORD to overflow in praise to our Awesome, Almighty, Creator, Savior, Holy Father GOD! Our Father GOD loves you; our Savior GOD paid the penalty for your sin; our Holy Spirit GOD wants to indwell you with His glory! This is GOD's Living hope for you!

An Eternal Hope That is Unexplainable

2 Corinthians 5:8, "To be absent from the body is to be present with the LORD!" 



 

Read of Ben Breedlove's eternal hope shared in the book of his life, "When Will the Heaven Begin," a testimony of meeting with our Creator. And, that's just where Ben is now, praise be to Christ who is our resurrection! 

Hope is magnified by encounters with GOD!

What is Hope?

Hebrews 11:1, "Faith is assurance of things hoped for and the sign that the things not seen are true."

 



Hallelujah Hope for Man

Christians know the eternal hope of Christ's resurrection! Even the "Hallelujah Chorus" is just the beginning of an inexpressible joy that goes on forever!!!

 

 

Our Wonderful Hope in Christ's Resurrection

 

 

"He is not here. He has risen!"

 

 

John 11:25, "Jesus said, 'I Am the resurrection and the life. He who comes to me shall never die.' " Christ is the first resurrection. Because He is, this is the great hope that mankind who have accepted His plan of salvation can also have resurrection unto life ( I Thessalonians 4:16-17.)  If you don't know our Awesome, Almighty, Creator, Savior, Holy Father GOD come to Him today and experience His extraordinary hope that will fill you to overflowing!

 

Earthquake that was the Hope for Mankind

Matthew 27:51, "The veil of the temple was torn from top to bottom. The earth quaked and the rocks were split," when Christ said upon the cross, "It is finished!"

 

                                       *

Revelation 21:6, "He said, 'It is finished! I Am the Alpha and Omega, Beginning and the End. To all who are thirsty I will give the springs of the Water of Life (Eternity) without charge!' "

 

Hope Springs Up in the Passion of Christ

Jesus Christ was not just another man dying on a cross. He is GOD incarnated in flesh Who took upon Him the entire sins of the world to reconcile mankind to Himself! (I John 2:2) To think, billions of people, quadrillions of sins; from Adam and Eve to the last human being He will create! No wonder the world went completely dark at noon as Christ took upon Him the sins of all mankind! (Matthew 27:45, Mark 15:33, Luke  23:44) Only Almighty GOD could withstand such a horrific price beyond man's ability to comprehend such Love and Power! To be spiritually reconciled, you must be born again. (John 3:7) This is our great hope that goes beyond anything this fallen world could offer. (I Peter 1:3) Because of what Christ did for those accepting His free gift of salvation, death is not the end, it's the beginning of an awesome existence that will go on forever! To know GOD personally is to know and have hope!

 



Hope That Is Bigger Than the Universe

 

 

Acts 2:19-20, "And I (GOD) will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below; fire, blood, and billows of smoke. The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood BEFORE the coming of the great and glorious day of the LORD!"
                                       *
Matthew 24:7, Mark 13:8, Luke 21:11 all speak of earthquakes. Today, earthquakes have increased in the number per year as well as the severity of their magnitude and destruction.
                                      *
Acts 2:19 and Joel 2:30 speaks of the billows of smoke (and fire). Volcanoes of such immensity have increased. Yet it has become such an  occurrence, it tends to be "old news." 
                                      *
Acts 2:20 and Joel 2:31 speaks of the sun turning to darkness and the moon to blood. Solar and lunar eclipses have become a "common" phenomenon though they only happen "once in a great while" (however, more in the next few years than in recorded history.)
                                     *
Hope in our Almighty GOD who set these things in place in the heavens are His handiwork!  Unbelieving scientist want to leave these things to probability and mathematics?  It is only their excuse to refuse to take the responsibility of accepting The Truth and Righteousness of an Awesome, Almighty, Creator, Savior, Holy Father GOD!
                                    *
Psalm 19:1, "The heavens declare the glory of GOD; and the firmament shows His handiwork!"
                                    *
What a time for this eclipse to happen - during the commemoration of the  Passover Holy Week of Christ's crucifixion, death, and resurrection!





Hope which the Last Supper Brings

The disciples of Christ truly didn't realize what was coming. Their hope was not the same hope that Christ had for them, as so for the whole world. The bread would symbolize His Body that was given for the sins of mankind. The wine would symbolize His Blood pour out for the covering of mankind's sins. Ephesians 2:8-9, "Salvation is not of works, but is a gift" to those who accept so great a salvation. A week of sorrows would soon turn into joy and the hope for all eternity for Christ's followers.

 

Hope in the Message of Palm Sunday

Zechariah 9:9, Matthew 21:5, John 12:15 all speak of the hopeful entry of Christ into Jerusalem on the back of a donkey's colt. They were so filled with hope that they laid down their clothing and palm branches for His colt to walk across.
                                        *
Revelation 7:9 speaks of a hope with a similar event of the saved from all the ages, "So great a crowd that could not be numbered wore white robes and holding palm branches before Him Who sits upon the throne." This happens in Heaven and no earthly throne can be compared to it. Won't you come be apart of this miracle of GOD for His saved believers?



Hope Springs up Eternal

II Thessalonians 2:16 shares about Jesus and GOD our Father by His grace, giving us eternal encouragement and good hope!

 

 

Have Hope Come Alive in You

 

I Corinthians 2:7, "We speak of GOD's secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and that GOD destined for our Glory before time began." What hope we Christians have in our salvation that GOD already foreknew! He foreknew your destiny too! Whether you have rejected or have accepted the salvation of Christ, GOD already knew your choice. (II Timothy 1:9.)  God has predestined His chosen. (Romans 8:29-30, Ephesians 1:5, 1:11.)  If you haven't realized the truth for yourself, come to Christ today! "All who call upon the Name of the LORD shall be saved!" (Acts 2:21, Romans 10:13.) When you do, watch what the Holy Spirit of Almighty GOD  works in you! 

 

Hope In Christ Alone

How awesome is our Almighty GOD when He says, "I know the plans I have for you...to give you hope and a future." He is in the redeemed heart of all believers. He has called us according to His purposes (Romans 8:28; Philippians 2:13; Ephesians 1:5, 1:9, 1:11, 3:11; II Timothy 1:9; I Peter 1:2)  Eternity with Him awaits all who have His Redemption. What a blessed hope! Our hope is "In Christ Alone."

The Mercy and Grace of Hope in Jesus Christ

I Peter 1:3 (NIRV), "Give praise to the GOD and Father of our LORD Jesus Christ. In His great mercy He has given us a new birth and a hope that is alive. It is alive because Jesus Christ rose from the dead."

                                        *

No matter what, NO MATTER WHAT; for those who know the LORD, our hope is manifested in the grace and mercy of our LORD Jesus Christ now and forevermore.  The forevermore is shared in II Corinthians 5:8, "To be absent from the body is to be present with the LORD."

 



Hope That Does Not Fail!

Praise the LORD for my loving sister-in-law who encouraged me with my hope in Christ Jesus and not the things that occur in this world. "Hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness!"

Jesus is our Hope!

The LORD GOD Reveals Himself to His Own

In January I shared about the joy of the LORD. In February I shared about the Love of GOD. In March I shared about the peace of our Holy Father GOD! This coming April I will share about the hope we have in our Awesome, Almighty, Creator, Savior, Holy Father GOD!
