Christians Hope For


God’s glory

Romans 5:1-5  

1 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

2 through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.

3 Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;
4 perseverance, character; and character, hope.

5 And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.

Resurrection

Acts 23:6  

Then Paul, knowing that some of them were Sadducees and the others Pharisees, called out in the Sanhedrin, “My brothers, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee. I stand on trial because of my hope in the resurrection of the dead.”

Acts 24:15  

And I have the same hope in God as these men, that there will be a resurrection of both the righteous and the wicked.

1 Thessalonians 4:13  

Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope.

Titus 2:13  

while we wait for the blessed hope—the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,

1 John 3:3  

Everyone who has this hope in him purifies himself, just as he is pure.
