Because Jesus lives, we can live hopefully. Biblically speaking, hope isn’t mere wishful thinking; it’s a firm conviction about the future. Today’s passage is 1 Peter 1:3-5. It’s part of Peter’s introduction to a letter sent to suffering saints. In it, the apostle encourages his fellow Christ-followers to stand firm in the hope of Christ, which is solid and secure.
1 Peter 1:3-5 - "Our Living Hope" (Easter 2020)
If Jesus is alive, we can live with hope. But Christian hope is not wishful thinking. It is a firm conviction about the future. In today’s passage, Peter makes it clear that our hope in Christ is both solid and secure.
