Friend, what is your hope? We do not mean your hope for this life, but for the life to come! Is it for a blessed eternity? Is it a sure and certain hope? Can it ever be moved? You may have a hope sure and certain and immovable for a blessed eternity, only if you are building upon the right foundation.
If your foundation be self, or your doings, or the work of men for you, then it is but sand. When the storm comes—and come it will—your foundation will be swept away, with the building upon it.
If your hope for eternity is firmly founded upon the Rock, then let the clouds be what they will! They cannot prevail against Christ who is that Rock!
"My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
"On Christ the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.”
"There is none other
name under heaven
given among men,
whereby we must be
SAVED”
