God's Everlasting Love
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. Rom 8:37
more
than conquerors... Is a compound Greek word, which means to over
conquer, to conquer completely without any real threat to personal
life or health.
A true follower of Jesus Christ will not turn back from those problems listed (in verse 35). We know that Jesus has won the victory. These little battles are nothing. Jesus won the war at Calvary. Our strength is in Jesus.
In
all these adversities (cf. “all things” in Rom. 8:28 and “all
things” in Rom. 8:32 with all these things in Rom. 8:37), rather
than being separated from Christ’s love, believers are more than
conquerors (pres. tense, hypernikōmen,
“keep on being conquerors to a greater degree” or “keep on
winning a glorious victory”) through Him who loved us. Jesus Christ
and His love for believers enable them to triumph (cf. 2CoR. 2:14).
