Grace-energized, persevering hope is especially relevant to days in which we live. God wants hope-filled men and women walking through life side-by-side with hope-less worldlings, so that we can point those without hope to our hope in Christ.
In one of Christ's final messages, He tells us that the time period ahead of us called the end of days, is going to be so “hope-less”—that people actually will drop dead from heart failure as they see what is coming.
He then goes on to say that His children are to be different. Jesus wants you and me to be filled with hope.
Open with me to Jesus describing the End of Days in Luke 21; this is Christ's thumbnail or short version of the 22 chapters of the final book of the Bible called the book of the Revelation. There are fearful times coming to this planet.
