helpful assessment

REASON FOR HOPE TEST
But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. -1 Peter 3:15

My father-in-law gave this to me and I thought it was a helpful tool for us to know if we can articulate the hope we have in Christ - and to also help us recognize if we truly know we have a solid hope and assurance in Christ. See how you do...

1. Can you recite three different Bible verses that express your faith and hope in Christ?

2. Do you have a personal testimony of a recent answer to prayer?

3. Do you have a personal testimony of a recent spiritual lesson you have learned?

4. Can you explain briefly how the Old Testament presents the message of Jesus Christ?

5. Can you define what the “peace of Christ” means to you personally?

6. How would you explain why you believe that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life?

7. Can you explain why you believe there is a heaven and a hell?

8. Can you explain in simple terms the role of the Holy Spirit in your life?

9. Can your children explain why they go to church?

10. Can your children explain why they believe in Jesus Christ?
