In Jesus we have re- demption for sins through His blood according to the riches of His grace. For God hath made Jesus to be sin for us. He who knew no sin that we might be made the righ- teousness of God in Jesus. Neither is there salvation in any other. For there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved. The Lord hath delivered God so loved the world fies to her love for children.

To expect with de- sire, we have much to hope for. The world looks hope- less, but we are full of hope. We have a hope that is stead- fast and sure. Here are a few scriptures about hope. 1. "Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ" (I Peter 1:13). 2.
