We need to be filled with the certainty that comes from faith and hope<\/h2>\n<\/hgroup>\n

We Christians live in the hope that is born of the certainty of faith. <\/span>Why are people so you stuck in\u00a0depression?<\/span>Their certainty of faith is thin, we no longer have an entire people that believes we have whole families who don’t believe. <\/span>Looking at them, we see, unfortunately, families who are not living in faith and hope, but a people grumbling.<\/span><\/p>\n

Whoever is spreading the seeds can’t see the fruits, but the farmer believes that soon he will see them. Therefore, we are not discouraged. <\/span>We need to be filled with the certainty that comes from faith and hope.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Romans 11.25, Paul speaks of what still happens to his people, he and the Apostles are suffering the persecution of Jews. <\/span>That toughness, that disappointment with the Jews. St.Paul,\u00a0by the grace of God, is already announcing that the day will come when all they are going to render themselves\u00a0en masse. <\/span>He announces and places his faith based on the very word of God: “it will happen”.<\/span><\/p>\n

He, being\u00a0persecuted, predicts what will happen to the same people, being persecuted. <\/span>If we don’t have that vision out front, we are a people discouraged and condemned to depression, for not having\u00a0hope.<\/span><\/p>\n

The enemy does everything so that I don’t have anything to look forward to, in order that we do not talk about the\u00a0end times. <\/span>But the word of God is clear, not only in the book of revelation, but in\u00a0Peter, already in\u00a0his\u00a0second preaching to the Thessalonians, speaks of the coming of Jesus and the transformation of all things.<\/span><\/p>\n

St Paul said: “to live in that hope. <\/span>Even talking to beginning\u00a0Christians , he announced the hope of the coming of Jesus.<\/span><\/p>\n
