HOPE

Psalm 32:1-2 

Blessed Is He Whose Transgression Is Forgiven, Whose Sin Is Covered. Blessed Is The Man Unto Whom The Lord Imputeth Not Iniquity, And In Whose Spirit There Is No Guile.

Romans 5:1-21 

Therefore Being Justified By Faith, We Have Peace With God Through Our Lord Jesus Christ: By Whom Also We Have Access By Faith Into This Grace Wherein We Stand, And Rejoice In HOPE Of The Glory Of God. And Not Only So, But We Glory In Tribulations Also: Knowing That Tribulation Worketh Patience; And Patience, Experience; And Experience, HOPE: And Hope Maketh Not Ashamed; Because The Love Of God Is Shed Abroad In Our Hearts By The Holy Ghost Which Is Given Unto Us. For When We Were Yet Without Strength, In Due Time Christ Died For The Ungodly. For Scarcely For A Righteous Man Will One Die: Yet Peradventure For A Good Man Some Would Even Dare To Die. But God Commendeth His Love Toward Us, In That, While We Were Yet Sinners, Christ Died For Us. Much More Then, Being Now Justified By His Blood, We Shall Be Saved From Wrath Through Him. For If, When We Were Enemies, We Were Reconciled To God By The Death Of His Son, Much More, Being Reconciled, We Shall Be Saved By His Life. And Not Only So, But We Also Joy In God Through Our Lord Jesus Christ, By Whom We Have Now Received The Atonement. Wherefore, As By One Man Sin Entered Into The World, And Death By Sin; And So Death Passed Upon All Men, For That All Have Sinned:(For Until The Law Sin Was In The World: But Sin Is Not Imputed When There Is No Law. Nevertheless Death Reigned From Adam To Moses, Even Over Them That Had Not Sinned After The Similitude Of Adam's Transgression, Who Is The Figure Of Him That Was To Come. But Not As The Offence, So Also Is The Free Gift. For If Through The Offence Of One Many Be Dead, Much More The Grace Of God, And The Gift By Grace, Which Is By One Man, Jesus Christ, Hath Abounded Unto Many. And Not As It Was By One That Sinned, So Is The Gift: For The Judgment Was By One To Condemnation, But The Free Gift Is Of Many Offences Unto Justification. For If By One Man's Offence Death Reigned By One; Much More They Which Receive Abundance Of Grace And Of The Gift Of Righteousness Shall Reign In Life By One, Jesus Christ.) Therefore As By The Offence Of One Judgment Came Upon All Men To Condemnation; Even So By The Righteousness Of One The Free Gift Came Upon All Men Unto Justification Of Life. For As By One Man's Disobedience Many Were Made Sinners, So By The Obedience Of One Shall Many Be Made Righteous. Moreover The Law Entered, That The Offence Might Abound. But Where Sin Abounded, Grace Did Much More Abound: That As Sin Hath Reigned Unto Death, Even So Might Grace Reign Through Righteousness Unto Eternal Life By Jesus Christ Our Lord.

Hebrews 7:18-19 

For There Is Verily A Disannulling Of The Commandment Going Before For The Weakness And Unprofitableness Thereof. For The Law Made Nothing Perfect, But The Bringing In Of A Better HOPE Did; By The Which We Draw Nigh Unto God.

1 John 3:1-10 

Behold, What Manner Of Love The Father Hath Bestowed Upon Us, That We Should Be Called The Sons Of God: Therefore The World Knoweth Us Not, Because It Knew Him Not. Beloved, Now Are We The Sons Of God, And It Doth Not Yet Appear What We Shall Be: But We Know That, When He Shall Appear, We Shall Be Like Him; For We Shall See Him As He Is. And EVERY MAN THAT HATH THIS HOPE IN HIM PURIFIETH HIMSELF, EVEN AS HE IS PURE. Whosoever Committeth Sin Transgresseth Also The Law: For Sin Is The Transgression Of The Law. And Ye Know That He Was Manifested To Take Away Our Sins; And In Him Is No Sin. Whosoever Abideth In Him Sinneth Not: Whosoever Sinneth Hath Not Seen Him, Neither Known Him. Little Children, Let No Man Deceive You: He That Doeth Righteousness Is Righteous, Even As He Is Righteous. He That Committeth Sin Is Of The Devil; For The Devil Sinneth From The Beginning. For This Purpose The Son Of God Was Manifested, That He Might Destroy The Works Of The Devil. Whosoever Is Born Of God Doth Not Commit Sin; For His Seed Remaineth In Him: And He Cannot Sin, Because He Is Born Of God. In This The Children Of God Are Manifest, And The Children Of The Devil: Whosoever Doeth Not Righteousness Is Not Of God, Neither He That Loveth Not His Brother.

Romans 4:2-8

For If Abraham Were Justified By Works, He Hath Whereof To Glory; But Not Before God. For What Saith The Scripture? Abraham Believed God, And It Was Counted Unto Him For Righteousness. Now To Him That Worketh Is The Reward Not Reckoned Of Grace, But Of Debt. But To Him That Worketh Not, But Believeth On Him That Justifieth The Ungodly, His Faith Is Counted For Righteousness. Even As David Also Describeth The Blessedness Of The Man, Unto Whom God Imputeth Righteousness Without Works, Saying, Blessed Are They Whose Iniquities Are Forgiven, And Whose Sins Are Covered. Blessed Is The Man To Whom The Lord Will Not Impute Sin.

Romans 4:21-25 

AND BEING FULLY PERSUADED THAT, WHAT HE HAD PROMISED, HE WAS ABLE ALSO TO PERFORM. AND THEREFORE IT WAS IMPUTED TO HIM FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS. NOW IT WAS NOT WRITTEN FOR HIS SAKE ALONE, THAT IT WAS IMPUTED TO HIM; BUT FOR US ALSO, TO WHOM IT SHALL BE IMPUTED, IF WE BELIEVE ON HIM THAT RAISED UP JESUS OUR LORD FROM THE DEAD; WHO WAS DELIVERED FOR OUR OFFENCES, AND WAS RAISED AGAIN FOR OUR JUSTIFICATION.

Imputed: To Say That Someone Is Responsible For Something That Has Happened, Especially Something Bad, The Act Of Imputation Is Simply The Charging Of One With Something.
