OUR CHRISTIAN HOPE

Christian hope involves more than a sunny, cheerful attitude. It is more than a general kind of optimism. It is more than hope in hope, or faith in faith. Christian hope is tied to the goal of history and the purpose of each persons existence. It is the unshakable confidence of the sovereignty of God and Gods eventual triumph over all the forces that stand against truth, righteousness, faithfulness, love and mercy. And in the great contest between good and evil, Christian hope declares God as winner. Christ is the hope not only in the world to come; he is the hope of the world right now.
