Title: The Believer's Hope
Description: Believers "lay hold upon the hope set before us." And what is the hope set before us? The hope now possessed by believers is the assurance that we will be with Christ, we will be like Christ, we will have the mind of Christ, a body like Christ, we will share with Christ as joint heirs of God, and we will reign with him. In these dark days and perilous hours when Satan is forging his last all-out drive against the people of God, how comforting to the soul to know that we have a hope -- sure, steadfast, unmovable, a hope that cannot be destroyed. Our hope is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ, and that hope as an anchor for the soul prevents us from drifting into false religions, false doctrines, "isms" and other sidetracks and detours through which the devil would lead us astray. Certainly in such days as these, everyone needs a hope that is an anchor for the soul. - p. 79-81.
