confidence, hope

“Confidence” From Concise Bible Dictionary:

The trust and boldness that faith in God and His word gives. “In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence”; “The Lord shall be thy confidence” (Prov. 3:26; Prov. 14:26). “We are made partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our ‘assurance’ firm unto the end” (Heb. 3:14). In contrast to this the “fearful” are classed with the “unbelieving” (Rev. 21:8).

“Hope” From Concise Bible Dictionary:

This is described as waiting for something that is not seen but which has been promised. Rom (8:24-25). Blessed is the man whose hope the Lord is; though troubles arise he will not cease to bear fruit (Jer. 17:7-8). There is nothing vague in the Christian’s hope: it is an anchor of the soul, sure and steadfast, because the Lord Himself is his hope, and Christ in him is the hope of glory (Col. 1:27; 1 Tim. 1:1; Heb. 6:18-19). The coming of the Lord, and not death, is a blessed part of the Christian’s hope (1 Thess. 4:13-18; 1 John 3:2-3).
