The Hope that Drives Us On

Paul calls us to follow his and others’ example of suffering loss for the sake of knowing Christ. So, when we feel the pain of loss, what is the hope that drives us on? It is primarily the eager expectation of a heavenly Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. And along with His arrival, we look forward to transformed bodies and His omnipotent rule over all creation. This is how we must stand firm in the Lord.
