The certainty of Jesus as our hope is confirmed through His promises and the fulfillment of God's word throughout scripture.
The assurance that Jesus is our hope can be drawn from the promises made in Scripture that affirm His role as the source of our hope. Romans 4:21 illustrates how Abraham believed God was able to fulfill His promises even when circumstances seemed impossible. This divine capacity underpins our belief that Jesus Christ, as the embodiment of God's promise, is ultimately our hope. By faith in Him, we are assured of reconciliation and peace with God, cementing our status as 'prisoners of hope.' It's through experiencing His deliverance that we become convinced of this hope.
