Hope is Immovable Trust

 

Hope is in balance. It’s knowing that something good is about to happen. Hope is an unquestionable assurance of love. «7 Love always endures, always trusts, always hopes, always endures» (Complete Jewish Bible, 1 Corinthians 13:7).

Yeshua, which means salvation, is the hope hoped for, the hope, the hope, the prophesied Messiah of the God of Israel. The son of God. God.

In this world, there is tribulation. Sometimes we are faced with difficult circumstances that bring with them despair, fear, and anxiety. However, «8 … God is love» (1 John 4:8). He gives us hope founded on love by producing strength, comfort, and protection. This love embraces us with a strong embrace and a floating mantle of great encouragement for a better future. «11» Because I know what plans I have in mind for you,» says Adonai, «plans for well-being, not for bad things; so that you can have hope and a future. 12 When you call me and pray to me, I will listen to you. 13 When you seek me, you will find me, provided you seek me with all your heart» (Jeremiah 29:11-13).

Who do you say I am? The disciples answered:

«13 When Yeshua entered the territory around Caesarea Philippi, he asked his talmidim, «Who are the people who say that the Son of Man is?» 14 They said, «Well, some say Yochanan the Immersed, some say Eliyahu, some say Yirmeyahu or one of the prophets.» 15 «But you,» he said to them, «who do you say I am? 16 Shim’on Kefa replied, «You are Moshiach, the Son of the living God» (Matthew 16:13-16).

Yeshua’s mission was and continues to be to announce the message of salvation and eternal life by telling us that the kingdom of heaven is near; Therefore, forsake your sins and trust in God. Yeshua carried His mission through His teachings, His appointed times, actions, and His death. He left the Ruach Hakodesh (Holy Spirit) as a counselor. He entrusts all who come to trust Him to spread the good news of His love and salvation through the scriptures: Tanakh, The Haftarah and The Brit Hadashah. Yeshua existed to transform lives and to see all of Israel saved.

Here at Beth Hatikvah, which means House of Hope, we put our hope in Yeshua HaMashiach, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel. It is our great hope that you too will find hope in Yeshua the Messiah through the study of God’s Word.

«6 For while we were still helpless, at the right time, the Messiah died on behalf of the wicked. 7 Now it is a rare event when someone gives up his life even for the sake of someone righteous, though possibly for a truly good person, one might have the courage to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in that the Messiah died in our name while we were still sinners. 9 Therefore, since we have come to be considered righteous through his bloody sacrificial death, how much more will we be delivered through him from the wrath of God’s judgment! 10 For if we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son when we were enemies, how much more will we be delivered by his life, now that we are reconciled! 11 And not only will we be delivered in the future, but now we are boasting about God, because he has acted through our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, through whom we have already received that reconciliation.

«12 This is how it works: it was through an individual that sin entered the world, and through sin, death; and in this way death passed on to the whole human race, inasmuch as all sinned. 13 Sin was indeed present in the world before the Torah was given, but sin is not counted as such when there is no Torah. 14 However, death ruled from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sins were not exactly like Adam’s violation of a direct command. In this, Adam foreshadowed the one who was to come.

«15 But the free gift is not like the offense. For if, because of one man’s offense, many died, how much more did God’s grace, that is, the gift of grace from one man, Yeshua the Messiah, overflow many! 16 No, the free gift is not like what resulted from a man’s sin; For from a sinner came judgment that brought condemnation; but the gift came after many offenses and he was acquitted. 17 For if, through the trespass of one man, death ruled through that one man; How much more will those who receive overflowing grace, that is, the gift of being considered righteous, receive to rule in life through the one man, Yeshua the Messiah!

«18 In other words, just as it was through an offense that all persons were condemned, so it is by a righteous act that all persons are considered righteous. 19 For just as by the disobedience of one man many were made sinners, so also by the obedience of the other man many will be made righteous. 20 And the Torah came on the scene so that the offense would proliferate; But where sin proliferated, grace proliferated even more. 21 All this happened so that just as sin ruled through death, so also grace could rule through making people be considered righteous, so that they might have eternal life, through Yeshua the Messiah, our Lord» (Rom 5:6-21).
