05312020 Sermon: The Hope Set Before Us

The HOPE Set Before Us Hebrews 6:16–20 (MEV) For men indeed swear by a greater authority than themselves, and for them an oath of confirmation ends all dispute. 17 So God, wanting to show more abundantly the immutability of His counsel to the heirs of 16 promise, confirmed it by an oath. 18 So that by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us. 19 We have this hope as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, which enters the Inner Place behind the veil. 20 This is where Jesus has entered for us as a forerunner, since He has become the everlasting High Priest in the order of Melchizedek. Hebrews 6:16–20 (MEV) We Have HOPE Because We Belong To Jesus Christ Psalm 100:3 (MEV) Know that the LORD, He is God; it is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture. 3 Romans 8:15 (MEV) For you have not received the spirit of slavery again to fear. But you have received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, “Abba, Father.” 15 We Have HOPE Because We Belong To The Family of God John 1:12 (MEV) Yet to all who received Him, He gave the power to become sons of God, to those who believed in His name, 12 Ephesians 2:19 (MEV) Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 19 1 John 3:1 (MEV) Consider how much love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God. Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. 1 Romans 12:5 (MEV) so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and all are parts of one another. 5 We Have HOPE In A Soon Coming Lord Titus 2:13 (MEV) as we await the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 13 2 Corinthians 1:22 (MEV) who also has sealed us and established the guarantee with the Spirit in our hearts. 22 Philippians 3:20 (MEV) But our citizenship is in heaven, from where also we await for our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 20 So With All This Hope – Let’s Worship HIM & Celebrate! Psalm 95:6 (MEV) O come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD, our Maker. 6 Hebrews 12:28 (MEV) Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be moved, let us be gracious, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. 28 John 15:11 (MEV) I have spoken these things to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. 11 Hebrews 10:24–25 (MEV) And let us consider how to spur one another to love and to good works. 25 Let us not forsake the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but let us exhort one another, especially as you see the Day approaching. 24
