💪 In Him We Are Conquerors ✝️ Christ appeared superior to, and stronger than, every sin and worldly hindrance; and since He has conquered, He will also bestow the power to conquer upon such as are tempted for His sake. (…) The power of His acts will surely extend even unto us, since He who conquered was one of us, insomuch as He was Incarnate Man. And as we overcome sin that wholly died in Christ first, Christ, that is, being the purveyor to us of the blessing as His own kindred; so also we ought to be of good cheer, because we shall overcome the world; for Christ as Man overcame it for our sakes, being herein the Beginning and the Gate and the Way for the race of man. For we who once were fallen and vanquished have now overcome and are conquerors, through Him Who conquered as one of ourselves, and for our sakes. For if He conquered as God, then it profits us nothing; but if as Man, we are in Him conquerors. St Cyril the Great, On John 16:33; LFC 2, 476-477. #VictoryInChrist #OvercomingTheWorld #Incarnation #UnionWithChrist #BiblicalHope
