THE THRONE OF VICTORY; SATAN UNDER THE FEET OF THE BELIEVER. we
have now traced the story of the translation of a soul out of the “power of
darkness” into the Kingdom of the Son, through the gate of death into
resurrection life in union with the Risen Lord. We heard the call to arms, and
the putting on of the heavenly armor to meet the new tactics of the foe,
when the believer emerges into the spiritual sphere; and we have considered
some of the wiles of the devil suited to the Spirit-filled believer. In closing we
must see the way of victory and the place of authority over all the power of
the enemy, which makes the redeemed one terrible as an army with banners
to the foe. When the believer emerges into the Spirit-sphere on the
resurrection side of the cross, he enters into conflict with the aerial hosts of
darkness who swarm in the region immediately surrounding our planet. Here
he needs the whole armor of God to encase and protect him. Also we are
taught that he has a place above them where he sits with Christ in His place
of victory “far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion,
and every name that is named” (Eph. 1:21–22, KJV), where Satan and all his
hosts are under his feet. United to the Conqueror of Calvary, he sits and
reigns with Christ in spirit, as he will do visibly to the world in the day when
Christ shall appear in glory. Christ’s victorious ones shall reign with Him a
thousand years. The call from heaven by the victorious Lord to His redeemed

ones is a call to overcome as He overcame. And it is a promise that they who
thus overcome shall sit with Him in His throne, even as He sat down a Victor
over sin and death and hell, on His Father’s Throne.
