It is through those in whom Christ has become the resurrection and the
life, through those who have become victorious in faith so that they
trample the power of this world underfoot in the strength of eternity,
which is the rule and power of Christ—it is through these people that the
world endures even today. In them lives Jesus, the one risen from the
dead.
In them he rules and in them is victor. In them he is grace, is the light
of the world. In them he will be glorified through all creation.
