Christians have a hope that enables us to face anything. There’s an “unsinkableness” about us. There’s a stubborn buoyancy about us. You sink a Christian and they keep coming back up. No matter how much of the world seems to be on top of them. This is not the same as optimism. As a matter of fact, Christians have a hope that enables them to stop denying how much life stinks. There’s a tremendous amount of dysfunction that occurs because we just can’t bear to admit how horrible life is - how painful it is. Yet, biblical hope enables us to be more fiercely realistic than anybody else yet still joyfully consumed. The Apostle Paul says the reason we have this hope is because of the defeat of death.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-14 (NLT) - And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have died so you will not grieve like people who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with him the believers who have died.
