Perry, Imperial College, IC/FPR/LANG/2.5.1/7, 1988.] (1999-08-24) hope+ - Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary : Hope one of the three main elements of Christian character (1 Cor. 13:13). It is joined to faith and love, and is opposed to seeing or possessing (Rom. 8:24; 1 John 3:2). "Hope is an essential and fundamental element of Christian life, so essential indeed, that, like faith and love, it can itself designate the essence of Christianity (1 Pet. 3:15; Heb. 10:23). In it the whole glory of the Christian vocation is centred (Eph. 1:18; 4:4)." Unbelievers are without this hope (Eph. 2:12; 1 Thess. 4:13). Christ is the actual object of the believer's hope, because it is in his second coming that the hope of glory will be fulfilled (1 Tim. 1:1; Col. 1:27; Titus 2:13). It is spoken of as "lively", i.e., a living, hope, a hope not frail and perishable, but having a perennial life (1 Pet. 1:3). In Rom. 5:2 the "hope" spoken of is probably objective, i.e., "the hope set before us," namely, eternal life (comp. 12:12). In 1 John 3:3 the expression "hope in him" ought rather to be, as in the Revised Version, "hope on him," i.e., a hope based on God. hope+ - U.S. Gazetteer (1990) : Hope, AK (CDP, FIPS 33580) Location: 60.89717 N, 149.63163 W Population (1990): 161 (164 housing units) Area: 125.4 sq km (land), 41.0 sq km (water) Hope, AR (city, FIPS 33190) Location: 33.66822 N, 93.59123 W Population (1990): 9643 (4207 housing units) Area: 23.4 sq km (land), 0.1 sq km (water) Hope, ID (city, FIPS 38440) Location: 48.24790 N, 116.30656 W Population (1990): 99 (62 housing units) Area: 1.0 sq km (land), 0.0 sq km (water) Zip code(s): 83836 Hope, IN (town, FIPS 34744) Location: 39.29991 N, 85.76813 W Population (1990): 2171 (814 housing units) Area: 2.1 sq km (land), 0.0 sq km (water) Zip code(s): 47246 Hope, KS (city, FIPS 33075) Location: 38.69095 N, 97.07507 W Population (1990): 404 (190 housing units) Area: 1.2 sq km (land), 0.0 sq km (water) Zip code(s): 67451 Hope, ME Zip code(s): 04847 Hope, MI Zip code(s): 48628 Hope, MN Zip code(s): 56046 Hope, ND (city, FIPS 38860) Location: 47.32482 N, 97.71963 W Population (1990): 281 (163 housing units) Area: 1.6 sq km (land), 0.0 sq km (water) Hope, NM (village, FIPS 33290) Location: 32.81726 N, 104.73671 W Population (1990): 101 (55 housing units) Area: 3.0 sq km (land), 0.0 sq km (water) Zip code(s): 88250 Hope, RI Zip code(s): 02831 hope+ - Moby Thesaurus II by Grady Ward, 1.0 : 198 Moby Thesaurus words for "hope": acceptation, acception, ache for, acquiescence, ambition, anticipate, anticipation, approach, ardor, aspire, aspire to, assumption, assurance, assuredness, await, bank on, bare possibility, be destined, be dying for, be fated, be hurting for, be imminent, be to be, be to come, belief, cardinal virtues, catch, certainty, chance, charity, cheerful expectation, clamor for, come, come on, conceivability, conceivableness, concupiscence, confide, confidence, contemplate, contingency, conviction, count, count on, craving, credence, credit, credulity, cry for, curiosity, daydream, dearest wish, dependence, dernier ressort, desideration, desideratum, desire, draw near, draw on, dread, drive, eagerness, envisage, even chance, eventuality, expect, expectancy, expectation, expedient, face, faith, fancy, fantasy, feel confident, forbidden fruit, foresee, foretell, fortitude, gape for, glimmering goal, golden vision, good chance, good possibility, hankering, harbor the hope, have in mind, hone for, hope against hope, hope and pray, hope for, hope in, hope to God, horme, intellectual curiosity, itch for, justice, languish for, last resort, lean upon, libido, lie ahead, likelihood, live in hopes, lodestone, long for, longing, look, look for, look forward to, loom, love, lust for, lust for learning, magnet, mind, natural virtues, near, need, nurture the hope, off chance, optimism, outside chance, outside hope, pant for, passion, pine for, pis aller, plan, pleasure, pleasure principle, plot, plum, possibility, possibleness, potential, potentiality, predict, presume, prize, probability, project, promise, prophesy, prospect, prudence, reception, recourse, reliance, reliance on, rely on, remote possibility, resort, resource, rest assured, sanguine expectation, security, sexual desire, sigh for, small hope, spoil for, stock, store, supernatural virtues, sureness, surety, suspension of disbelief, take for granted, temperance, temptation, the attainable, the feasible, the possible, theological virtues, think, thinkability, thinkableness, thirst for, thirst for knowledge, threaten, trophy, trust, urge, virtuality, wait, want, wanting, weary for, what is possible, what may be, what might be, will, will and pleasure, wish, wish for, wish fulfillment, yearn for, yearning, yen for |
