What the World Needs Now Is Hope - James P Lichtenstein - October 1984

James P Lichtenstein

Often underemphasized in the lives of many, hope is a tremendous spiritual gift at work in all who will be in God's coming Kingdom. The Bible speaks of three great fruits of God's Holy Spirit: faith, hope and love (I Corinthians 13:13). Most Christians readily and easily understand that love, called the greatest of these gifts, and faith are essential for salvation. But what about hope? What is hope, even? Given equal rank with love and faith, hope stands as one of the most important spiritual gifts, to be sought after and exercised by everyone of God's people. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
