Searching For Hope NAB

hope does not disappoint

Romans 4:9-18 Does this blessedness apply only to the circumcised, or tot he uncircumcised as well? Now we assert that "faith was credited to Abraham as righteousness."

Under what circumstances was it credited? Was he circumcised or not? He was not circumcised, but uncircumcised.

And he received the sign of circumcision as a seal on the righteousness received through faith while he was uncircumcised. Thus he was to be the father of all the uncircumcised who believe, so that to them [also] righteousness might be credited,

as well as the father of the circumcised who not only are circumcised, but also follow the path of faith that our father Abraham walked while still uncircumcised.

Inheritance through Faith

It was not through the law that the promise was made to Abraham and his descendants that he would inherit the world, but through the righteousness that comes from faith.

For if those who adhere to the law are the heirs, faith is null and the promise is void.

For the law produces wrath; but where there is not law, neither is there violation.

For this reason, it depends on faith, so that it may be a gift, and the promise may be guaranteed to all his descendants, not to those who only adhere to the law but to those who follow the faith of Abraham, who is the father of all of us,

as it is written, "I have made you father of many nations." He is our father in the sight of God, in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls into being what does not exist.

He believed, hoping against hope, that he would become "the father of many nations, " according to what was said, "Thus shall your descendants be."

Romans 4:23-25 But it was not for him alone that it was written that "It was credited to him";

it was also for us, to whom it will be credited, who believe in the one who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead,

who was handed over for our transgressions and was raised for our justification.

Faith, Hope, and Love

Romans 5:1-5 Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

through whom we have gained access [by faith] to this grace in which we stand, and we boast in hope of the glory of God.

Not only that, but we even boast of our afflictions, knowing that affliction produces endurance,

and endurance, proven character, and proven character, hope,

and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the holy Spirit that has been given to us.

Patience and Comfort of Scripture

Romans 15:4-7 For whatever was written previously was written for our instruction, that by endurance and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.

May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to think in harmony with one another, in keeping with Christ Jesus,

that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

God's Fidelity and Mercy

Welcome one another, then, as Christ welcomed you, for the glory of God.

Romans 15:12-13 And again Isaiah says; "The root of Jesse shall come, raised up to rule the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles hope."

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the holy Spirit.
