Scripture tells us that the ways of this world, many of which seem right to carnally-minded men, end in destruction. However, you can have living hope in Jesus Christ, because He rose from the dead. If you abide in Christ in this life, your eternal destiny is certain and greatly to be desired. This most certain hope has helped saints throughout the ages to endure many hardships, even death, for the cause of Christ. Please open your Bible to First Peter chapter one, verse five, and listen as Pastor Ray Viola completes his study of verses one through twelve.
