Hope

and the God of the hope shall fill you with all joy and peace in the believing, for your abounding in the hope in power of the Holy Spirit.

And faith is of things hoped for a confidence, of matters not seen a conviction,

in the hope rejoicing; in the tribulation enduring; in the prayer persevering;

for, as many things as were written before, for our instruction were written before, that through the endurance, and the exhortation of the Writings, we might have the hope.

Blessed <FI>is<Fi> the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to the abundance of His kindness did beget us again to a living hope, through the rising again of Jesus Christ out of the dead,

to whom God did will to make known what <FI>is<Fi> the riches of the glory of this secret among the nations--which is Christ in you, the hope of the glory,

and the hope doth not make ashamed, because the love of God hath been poured forth in our hearts through the Holy Spirit that hath been given to us.

for in hope we were saved, and hope beheld is not hope; for what any one doth behold, why also doth he hope for <FI>it<Fi> ? — read the full passage →

and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes, and the death shall not be any more, nor sorrow, nor crying, nor shall there be any more pain, because the first things did go away.'

and the Lord God sanctify in your hearts. And <FI>be<Fi> ready always for defence to every one who is asking of you an account concerning the hope that <FI>is<Fi> in you, with meekness and fear;

through whom also we have the access by the faith into this grace in which we have stood, and we boast on the hope of the glory of God. — read the full passage →

and we, being of the day--let us be sober, putting on a breastplate of faith and love, and an helmet--a hope of salvation,

And not only <FI>so<Fi> , but we also boast in the tribulations, knowing that the tribulation doth work endurance; — read the full passage →

And we have known that to those loving God all things do work together for good, to those who are called according to purpose;

for God did so love the world, that His Son--the only begotten--He gave, that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during.

and every one who is having this hope on him, doth purify himself, even as he is pure.

which we have, as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and entering into that within the vail,

For I reckon that the sufferings of the present time <FI>are<Fi> not worthy <FI>to be compared<Fi> with the glory about to be revealed in us;

upon hope of life age-during, which God, who doth not lie, did promise before times of ages,

Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of the choice ones of God, and an acknowledging of truth that <FI>is<Fi> according to piety, — read the full passage →
