We know that Christ is victorious because the Scriptures consistently declare His triumph over sin, death, and Satan.
The victory of Christ is a fundamental doctrine within the Reformed tradition, underlined throughout the Scriptures, particularly in the book of Revelation. It is proclaimed through the teachings that Christ has satisfied God’s justice, has overcome death, and is currently seated at the right hand of God. This victory means that believers are not in jeopardy of falling away or being lost; instead, they are upheld by God's mighty power. The assurances found in passages like Romans 8:28-30 affirm that all things work together for the good of those who are called according to His purpose, solidifying our understanding that Christ's victory is our victory as believers. His triumph guarantees the ultimate fulfillment of His redemptive work for His church.
