Hope

Hope, Strong’s G1680, elpis Blueletterbible.org, Outline of biblical usage: expectation of good, hope in the Christian sense joyful and confident expectation of eternal salvation Titus 1:2  in hope of eternal life which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began,

Hope saves us. Romans 8:12-25 Creation in v. 18, 19, 20, 21, 22 is used in the same sense as in: Mark 16:15 And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. (NASV) Colossians 1:23 if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, was made a minister. (NASV)

Hope saves us. Mankind has been subjected by God to futility (bondage of corruption, v. 21) because of sin. V. 20 Mankind, both Christians and non-Christians, desire deliverance from this futility and can have it. V. 21-23

Hope saves us. V. 24 For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? English Revised Version (1885) alternate translation, "By hope were we saved.“

Things that save us: Grace – Ephesians 2:8 The gospel – 1 Corinthians 15:1-2 The name of Jesus – Acts 4:12 Jesus’ life – Romans 5:10 The washing of regeneration – Titus 3:5 Christ’s blood – Revelation 1:5 The foolishness of the message preached – 1 Corinthians 1:21 Baptism – 1 Peter 3:21 Hope “only” doesn’t save us any more than faith “only”

Hope saves us. We are saved by hope because it enables us to patiently endure the sufferings of this life. V. 24-25 2 Corinthians 4:16 – 5:8

Hope helps us endure. 2 Timothy 3:12 Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. 1 Peter 4:12-19 Hebrews 6:11, And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end,… 19a This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast,

Hope helps us endure. 1 Thessalonians 1:2-3; 5:1-11 Hebrews 3:5-14 1 John 3:2-3 Romans 5:1-5

Hope keeps our priorities straight. Philippians 3:3-11 Colossians 1:21-24

Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.
