Result of Rescue: Hope [Romans 13]
Romans 5:1-6 // Ben Beasley
Paul names many benefits to being rescued by Jesus, including the offer of great hope even in our suffering. We have not only been rescued from something, but also for something. We are the hope of the glory of God. Suffering cannot defeat the great hope we have in Jesus. In fact, “hope will develop indirectly, as a byproduct of the persevering work we do in response to suffering. This hope that God gives us will not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

Join us as we continue our journey through the Book of Romans and see three reasons why we can find hope and even boast in our suffering”.
