Sharing the Hope We Have in Christ

I suffer trouble as an evildoer, even to the point of chains; but the word of God is not chained. Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. -2 Timothy 2:9-10 When I think of the apostle Paul, I think of a passionate man on a mission willing to do whatever it took to accomplish that task. Knowing the price his Savior paid for his forgiveness, knowing that he was in debt to Christ, Paul faced whatever came his way with spiritual tenacity and a Christ-inspired boldness.

Our understanding of this truth will very much impact whether or not we live as though were here to stay or if our focus is on our eternal residence. If we indeed are citizens of  heaven, we can be encouraged today that God has prepared a place for us in eternity and that His Son, Jesus Christ, has prepared us for this place. In essence, the apostle Paul reminds us that we are to work for Christ as we await His return. The Bible correctly prophesied of His first coming at Bethlehem, and we can rest assured in the promises of God's Word that Jesus is coming a...
