How do we know that Christ in us is our hope of glory?

Answered in 2 sources

We know that Christ in us is our hope of glory through the transformative power of the gospel and the promise of salvation revealed in Scripture.

The phrase 'Christ in you, the hope of glory' (Colossians 1:27) captures the essence of the believer's identity in Christ. This hope is assured through faith, which is gifted by God and connects believers to Christ's redemptive work. The mystery reveals that through Christ, believers obtain not only justification and sanctification but also the promise of glorification. All of God's promises find their fulfillment in Christ, who is the central figure of the gospel. Thus, when believers embrace Him, they receive the full measure of divine assurance and hope for eternal life, marking them as distinctly different from those who do not have this revelation.
