The Christian’s Hope 1 John 3:1-3; Titus 2:11-13

Hope Defined: Hope is defined as “desire with expectation of obtaining what is desired.” Desire alone is not hope. Expectation alone is not hope.

What The Christian’s Hope Is: 11/29/2009 pm What The Christian’s Hope Is: Appearing of the glory of Christ. 1 Thess. 4:16 Dead in Christ raised. 1 Thess. 4:16; John 5:28f United with the person of Christ. 1 Thess. 4: 17; Phil. 1:23 Conformed to the image of Christ. Phil. 3:20-21 Eternity in the presence of Christ. 1 Thess. 4: 17

What The Christian’s Hope Is: Heaven, with all of its joy and bliss, its beauty and grandeur, is the hope of the Christian. Col. 1:5; Eph. 4:4 We ought to desire it and we ought to expect it!

The Ground Of The Christian’s Hope We are “children of God.” The manner of our becoming children of God: the new birth. John 3:3-5. Cf. Gal. 3:26f. — children of God by faith when we are baptized. The honor of being children of God: to be a child of the King. Rom. 8:17

The Ground Of The Christian’s Hope No one except a child of God can have this hope of heaven. Hope is in Christ (1 Cor. 15:19), “If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.” Only children of God are in Christ (Gal. 3:26f.). Those not children of God …without God, and those without God are without hope (Eph. 2:12). Heaven is a prepared place (Jno. 14:2), for a prepared people… those who submit to Christ and become children of God.

The Ground Of The Christian’s Hope 11/29/2009 pm The Ground Of The Christian’s Hope Faithfulness and godliness are necessary for the child of God to have the hope of heaven. Rev. 2:10 “Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee the crown of life.”

Heaven - The place of... Everlasting Bliss! Rev. 7:16-17; Rev. 21:4 Fellowship in The Light of God’s Glory! Rev. 21:22-25 The Faithful of All Ages! Mt. 8:11; Heb. 11 The “city foursquare” – A Paradise! Rev. 21:16-21 Ultimate Purity! Rev. 21:27 Of Eternal Rest For the Souls of The Faithful! Rev. 14:13

This hope is worth more than all of the world. Do you have HOPE? 2 Tim 4:6-8, 18
