OUR HOPE

The coming of Christ to set up God's kingdom on earth is the biblical answer to a world overwhelmed with problems. There is comfort and reassurance in knowing that God will intervene in the affairs of humanity, bringing lasting peace to the earth.

"The good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ"

ACTS 8:12

Our hope is founded on the Bible’s teaching of a future resurrection followed by the establishment of a worldwide kingdom of God on Earth, as preached by the prophets and taught by Jesus Christ and the apostles. We believe that the hope of those who follow Christ and his teachings is to be resurrected from death, as Christ was, and to be granted eternal life in God’s kingdom that Jesus will establish on the earth when he returns. This hope is introduced in the Old Testament, in the promises to Abraham and to King David, and in the prophecies of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, and others. Jesus preached this hope, and Paul and the other apostles wrote about it. All these people spoke of a future eternal kingdom to be established here on the earth, with Jesus as King. The hope of those who follow Christ is to be raised from death when he returns and given eternal life in God’s kingdom – a kingdom filled with justice and righteousness.
