As Christians, our hope must be anchored in one person : Jesus Christ, the Christian Today website reports today (April 28, 2025).
You may have heard the Gospel before, but I'll ask you: Do you truly believe that Jesus is the Son of God? That He came to Earth, lived a sinless life, died on a cross, and rose again -- conquering death and ofering salvation and eternal life?
Jesus is the bridge from death to life. We were destined to eternal separation from God, but "God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life (John 3:16).
Through Jesus, death is not the end. It's the beginning of eternity with God.
Through Christ, the Kingdom of God has already begun here on Earth. When we place our hope in Him, His Kingdom lives in us (Luke 17:20--21). And that means we're not meant to turn away from the world's brokenness, we're called.
We carry the hope of restoration, just as God does (Romans 8:19--21). And we must share it.
Scripture says in Peter 3:15: "But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give a reason for the hope that you have."
