HAS THE OUTCOME OF THE ELECTION CHANGED YOUR HOPE?

In last month's newsletter I asked the question to all who voted, "Did the election results change their hope?" My purpose was to get the reader to think about what he or she was placing his hope in. Sadly, many have put their hope in results that have no eternal value. Neither presidential candidate could go beyond the temporal issues of life. If that's the case regarding our hope as believers, Paul said in 1 Corinthians:15:19If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
See All..., "If in this [temporal] life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable."  No. We have God's promise, to those who put their trust in Him, that we are going to be with Him forever. Titus:1:2In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
See All... tells us, "In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began.” As believers in Jesus, we believe His Word—certainly His promise. Again, "Has the outcome of the election changed your hope?"
