‘Tis the Season: A Study of Advent, pt. 1 - The Security of Hope

We hope for a lot of things. I hope the Chiefs win. I hope that shirt goes on sale. I hope I get a raise. Hope used in this way is fleeting and frail. The hope of the Bible is foundational and life-altering. This is the hope we have in Jesus. This is the hope secured for us by Jesus.Biblical God-inspired hope, which is what we have in Christ, is an expectation, not a wish. Jesus was born to die, and his destruction is the security of hope. You've sinned, Jesus saves, Your faith guarantees it.
