Immanuel Baptist Church Hope Hebrews 10:23-25 December 1, 2013 First Sunday of Advent Communion Sunday Immanuel Baptist Church Rev. John W. Landis, DMin

What is Hope? Hope is expectation of something Good belief that things can change for the better Hope is an excitement about the future Hope is about deciding to live Instead of succumbing to death Combination of waiting and being ready to act!

What is Hope? Hope is not a wish The difference between a Wish and Hope is FAITH

Formula for HOPE HOPE Vision of What could be + Desire Willingness to do the things you can control Perseverance and Patience Faith (that God has a purpose and is in control) HOPE

Heb 11:1 Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. (NIV)

Hope carries Risk! That it becomes Idealization and therefore paralyzes (something that becomes a prerequisite for everything else) You will be called a “fool” for hoping in the face of evidence to the contrary That your Hope may not be fulfilled That you have Hoped for the wrong thing

Hope, like trust, can be betrayed But unless you Hope Hope, like trust, can be betrayed But unless you Hope . . . Hope can never be fulfilled

People without hope are toxic People without hope are toxic! They drain your energy and if you are not careful your hope!

Hope can transform from despair to anticipation and even Joy!

What are we to Hope for? Peace Joy Love For Ourselves: That we can do what is right and pleasing to God That we can find the other symbols of Advent Peace Joy Love

What are we to Hope for? Peace Joy Love For Others: That they find salvation through Christ That they find the other symbols of Advent Peace Joy Love

What are we to Hope for? For the Church: That it serve well That it find unity in its diversity That it remembers who it’s Head is

What are we to Hope for? For the World: That it come closer to the Kingdom of God

Pray for the things you Hope for! What do You Hope for? for Yourself? for Others? for the Church? for the World? Pray for the things you Hope for!

What will you do to prepare to make your hope come true? What will you do to prepare to capitalize on it if your hope does come true? What will you do to promote Hope in others?

Hope is about deciding to live instead of succumbing to death Hope is about deciding to live instead of succumbing to death Jesus brought HOPE!

A Christians, we subscribe to and claim the Hope of life eternal with a God who loves us!

Heb 10:23 Let us hold unswervingly to the Hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful. (NIV)
