Advent: Hope 2008
How you live now is an outworking of hope. Your hope is shown in your life. It’s that simple. The biblical concept of hope is difficult to grasp because the word translated from the Greek isn’t served all that well by our modern or popular usage of the word hope. The Greek word is used some 88 times in the New Testament and is always translated as “hope.†The problem is that the English word gives the impression of wishing rather than a kind of certainty without site. In other words, when asked whether or not this or that thing is going to happen, you may say “I hope it does,†meaning that you are wishing it does. It has uncertainty mixed in. But the Biblical definition of hope is a life-shaping certainty about something that hasn’t happened yet, but you know it will.
