Life wouldn’t be much without hope, would it? He who
has suffered the loss of physical property has hope that he may
overcome his losses in successful enterprise. The unemployed
hopes for a job. Those whose health has failed hope for
renewed strength and well-being. The deeply sorrowful, and
all who walk the vale of tears and loneliness in bereavement
hope for a happier day when despair and sadness may be
crowded into the background.
Of such great value to man’s life in this world is hope
that literature abounds with illustrations of his efforts to prop-
erly eulogize its worth. One has said: "Hope is the best pos-
session; none are completely wretched but those who are with-
out hope, and few are reduced so low as that." Another has
written: "Hope is, of all ills that men endure, the only univer-
sal cure: the captive’s freedom, the sick man’s health, and the
lover’s victory, and beggar’s yealth."
But what the man of the world calls hope is not identi-
cal with what the Bible defines hope to be, nor can human
aspiration equal divine inspiration. Just ask a person about his
future expectations, and he will probably say: "I hope to go to
heaven when I die." Most of the people one meets will say that
they "hope" to go to heaven when they die, even though they
express only desire and have no scriptural foundation for any
such expectation.
Bible hope must have a foundation. It is more than
desire, regardless of how fervent, more than earnest desire
without confident expectation, more than feeling, more than
opinion. God’s word declares: "Faith is the substance oj
things hoped for..." (Heb. 11:1). There is a definite rela-
tionship between faith and hope. Where the former exists,
there is infallible truth giving basis to the latter. Where only
desire is present in the heart, there can be no assurance, no con-
fidence for the future. Only the word of God gives hope, hence
"through comfort of the scriptures we might have hope"
(Rom. 15:4). Godfs ”... precious and exceeding great prom-
ises" constitute the basis of a Christian’s assurance and ‘expec-
tation (2 Peter 1:14).
God’s promises to all men are through His son, Jesus
Christ. In Him are "all spiritual blessings" (Eph. 1:3). "In
none other is there salvation; for neither is there any other
name under heaven, that is given among men, wherein we
must be saved" (Acts 4:12). In the New Testament we read:
"Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the com-
mandment of God, our Savior, and Christ Jesus our hope" (I
Tim. 1:1). For ages men did not have full knowledge of God’s
salvation for both Jew and Gentile in Christ Jesus because God
had not chosen to reveal it. Instead of being too difficult for
solution, this "mystery" was only hidden until God chose to
reveal it (Col 1:24-28). Thus, Paul affirms that the glorious
salvation which is in Christ has not only been known unto the
Gentiles, but that God had this in mind for ages though it was
not made known to the sons of men.
The commands of God to the believer do not imply,
when obeyed, that such obedience merits salvation. Neither
Jew nor Gentile earns salvation! It is not'paid by God to man
as if God owes man a debt. "The wages of sin is death; but
the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord"
(Rom. 6:23).
The hope of every Christian rests for a foundation
entirely upon Jesus Christ; its validity in the eyes of God is that
it is hope in what Christ is, has done, and is now doing for us.
How much men should depend upon Christ. He is the hope of
