Our Living Hope
Jesus' death demonstrates God's love. But true disciples find even more assurance in the present ministry of our risen Savior.
Finding Assurance in the Cross
Hope can go wobbly from time to time. But true disciples are strengthened in God's steadfast love -- demonstrated on the cross, where Christ died for sinners.
Exulting in Tribulation
The fallen world is full of trouble. But true disciples rejoice, knowing that it can prepare them for glory.
Suffering Servants
Paul 'exults' in earthly tribulation because he, like all true disciples, knows that it increases hope in the glory of God.
The Fruit of Justification
The link between justification and glory is secure. True disciples find hope for the future in Christ's saving work.
