- Romans 5:1 Therefore, since we have been justified through
faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2
through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in
which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.
3 Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we
know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance,
character; and character, hope. 5 And hope does not disappoint us,
because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy
Spirit, whom he has given us.

- 6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still
powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. 7 Very rarely will anyone
die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might
possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in
this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Since we
have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be
saved from God's wrath through him! 10 For if, when we were God's
enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son,
how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through
his life! 11 Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God
through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received
reconciliation.

- 2 Corinthians 2:7 No, we speak of God's secret wisdom, a wisdom
that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before
time began. 8 None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if
they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9
However, as it is written: "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no
mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him" 10
but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches
all things, even the deep things of God.

- It is a serious thing to live in a society of possible gods and
goddesses, to remember that the dullest most uninteresting person
you talk to may one day be a creature which, if you saw it now, you
would be strongly tempted to worship, or else a horror and a
corruption such as you now meet, if at all, only in a nightmare. -

- 2 Cor. 3:7 Now if the ministry that brought death, which was
engraved in letters on stone, came with glory, so that the
Israelites could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of
its glory, fading though it was, 8 will not the ministry of the
Spirit be even more glorious?... 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and
where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18 And we, who
with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being
transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which
comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

- Rom 5:5 And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured
out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given
us. 1 Cor 2:7 No, we speak of God's secret wisdom, a wisdom that
has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time
began. 8 None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they
had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9 However, as
it is written: "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has
conceived what God has prepared for those who love him"-- 10 but
God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all

- 2 Cor 3:18 And we, are being transformed into his likeness with
ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the
Spirit. Eph 1:11 In him we were also chosen, having been
predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything
in conformity with the purpose of his will, 12 in order that we,
who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of
his glory. 13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard
the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed,
you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, 14
who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption
of those who are God's possession- -to the praise of his
glory.

Anticipation is our mindset 1 John 3:2 But we know that when he
appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. 3

pure.

- b) Present Imperatives: - Trial is a path to triumph -
Anticipation is our mindset - We work to conform ourselves to Jesus
Titus 2:11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared
to all men. 12 It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly
passions, and to live self- controlled, upright and godly lives in
this present age, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope--the
glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14
who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to
purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what
is good.
