Lesson 1: Living Hope
October 17 & 18, 2020
Job 8:13 those who forget God have no hope… Living Bible
“Our HOPE doesn’t lie in the man we put in the White House.
Our HOPE lies in the man we put on the cross.” – Unknown
God Has Given The Hopeless Eternal Hope
Wishful Hope, Calculated Hope, Promised Hope
Hebrews 11:1 What is faith? It is the confident assurance that something we want is going to happen. It is the certainty that what we hope for is waiting for us, even though we cannot see it up ahead. Living Bible
Hebrews 6:13 When God made his promise to Abraham, since there was no one greater for him to swear by, he swore by himself, New International Version
Hebrews 6:14 saying, “I will surely bless you and give you many descendants.” 15 And so after waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised. New International
Hebrews 6:16 People swear by someone greater than themselves, and the oath confirms what is said and puts an end to all argument. 17 Because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of his purpose very clear to the heirs of what was promised, he confirmed it with an oath. New International Version
Hebrews 6:18 God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be greatly encouraged. New International Version
Hebrews 6:19 We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure… New International Version
Anchors Keep Ships From DRIFTING And Add STABILITY In A Storm
Ephesians 2:12 remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ. New International Version
1 John 5:11 And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. New International Version
1 John 5:13 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. New International Version
Titus 3:5 he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, New International Version
Titus 3:6 whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life. New International Version
1 Peter 1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, New International Version
1 Thessalonians 4:13 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. New International Version
1 Thessalonians 4:14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. New International Version
