Re: The Early Christians: Creed, Confession and Scripture

But if Jesus at his first coming which took place in lowliness, without 
honor or glory, revealed so much light and power that now every nation 
knows him - so much that the old positions of international corruption are

abandoned in a general retreat, so much that even the demons submit to his

name and all the powers and kingdoms have greater fear of his name than of

the whole world of the dead - shall he not then, at his future appearance,

which will take place in radiant glory, destroy completely all his enemies

and all those who in their sins have turned their backs on him! How he
will 
then reward his own with all the things they expected and lead them to 
peace!

Christ, my Lord, the mighty and powerful one, shall come and demand what
is 
his own from all.

Justin, Dialogue with Trypho the Jew 121.3; 125.5.
