IN CHRIST-
Faith
Love
Knowledge of Him
Spirit of Wisdom - The True Natur of thins
Proverbs 9:10 “10 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.”
Spirit of Revelation - understanding the truth of the Bible

The Hope of our Calling

Romans 8:22–25 “22 For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together with labor pains until now. 23 Not only that, but we ourselves who have the Spirit as the firstfruits—we also groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for adoption, the redemption of our bodies. 24 Now in this hope we were saved, but hope that is seen is not hope, because who hopes for what he sees? 25 Now if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with patience.”
Its not that we hope it doesn't rain
I hope I get to be on time
Nothing creates more false hope in the word than the first few hours of a diet.
Hope is a word which has taken on a new and deeper meaning for us because the Savior took it into His mouth. Loving Him and obeying Him, we suddenly discover that hope is really the direction taken by the whole Bible. Hope is the music of the whole Bible, the heartbeat, the pulse and the atmosphere of the whole Bible.1
A. W. Tozer
Everything that is done in the world is done by hope. No husbandman would sow a grain of corn if he hoped not it would grow up and become seed … Or no tradesman would set himself to work if he did not hope to reap benefit thereby.
Martin Luther

The Value of our Inheritance

Our Inheritance
Christ Righteousness Sinless Perfection
Direct Access to the Father
Eternal Sinless Life
Our Minds will be free of sin to see clearly
Tue understanding in the incomprehensible
John 16:23 “23 “In that day you will not ask me anything. Truly I tell you, anything you ask the Father in my name, he will give you.”
Our Truest Desires will be fulfilled.
To be Accepted?
To be Loved?
To be Healed?
To be Free from worry?
To be filled with Joy?
Because all that we truly need is God - Our inheritance is God!
You have made us for yourself, and our hearts are restless till they find their rest in you.
Augustine of Hippo
Our passions will be sinless and pure
Romans 8:18 “18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is going to be revealed to us.”
Hope of the Resurrection 1 Corinthians 15:54–55 “54 When this corruptible body is clothed with incorruptibility, and this mortal body is clothed with immortality, then the saying that is written will take place: Death has been swallowed up in victory. 55 Where, death, is your victory? Where, death, is your sting?”
