Paul writes to the Thessalonians to comfort them, dealing with the things that were shaking and troubling them, and seeking to establish them in every good word and work.
He comforts them by telling them the blessings God had given them. It is a good hope through grace we look at in this sermon.
- Grace is the free unmerited favour of God - Hope is vital, it is saving. Romans 8:24-25 - A good hope is one founded on scripture and God's gracious work for us and in us. It has a good foundation. - A good hope is being called by grace and to have the comfort of knowing it.
A good hope by grace is traced out in the following points:
1/ The foundation of hope was laid by grace before we were born 2/ The foundation of hope in our lives in providential grace 3/ The foundation of hope in our being calling by grace 4/ The giving us to hope on these things is by grace 5/ The realisation of our hope will be by grace
