Living Hope Presbyterian Church: July 2012

Welcome

Living Hope Presbyterian Church is committed to the glory and of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ, and to the extension of His kingdom. In this, our principal goal and desire, and in this alone, is real HOPE to be found. The Gospel gives us this hope, as without the finished work of Jesus Christ on our behalf, we could have no expectation of mercy or reward, only judgment. We are redeemed sinners against the holiness and rule of our God and King. But Christ was born a man, lived under the law and died a sacrificial death on our behalf, to give this real hope to real PEOPLE. It is as we work out from this new righteous standing that we have been granted in Christ, in the power of the Holy Spirit, and with profound gratitude for God's mercy, that we strive to be what God has declared us to be. And so, only in our continuing to embrace this gospel by faith, is real TRANSFORMATION to be found. None of us can change himself. All of us need change. And so, we have but one hope ... Jesus Christ.
