One Hope

Let's get back to our discussion in Ephesians 4.

v4   There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

The one hope is easy to identify in the scriptures.

Titus 2
13   Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
14   Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

The only hope for anyone is the Lord Jesus Christ.

He is the only hope for our country.
He is the only hope for your family.
He is the only hope for your soul.

America, like all other nations, has turned away from the Lord and the Bible.  Politicians offer more of the same hopelessness every year.  Their empty promises offer a false hope to many who are in desperate situations.  The Bible is very clear.

Psalm 9
17   The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

Families fall apart when they depart from the scriptures.  The Bible is very clear about parents, not the humanistic, god denying, hell bound liberals of the federal school system, teaching their children. The Bible is very clear that the wife is to be a keeper at home, not out pursuing her "career".  And fathers are to take an active role in their family, not to just sit on the couch watching "professional sports", and oblivious to the needs of their family.  If your family situation seems hopeless, turn to the scriptures, and get back to God's ways.

Without the Lord all is hopeless.  But with the Lord, we have a blessed hope, which in the only hope in this wicked sinful world.
