nikos: victory
Original Word: νῖκος, ους, τό
Part of Speech: Noun, Neuter
Transliteration: nikos
Phonetic Spelling: (nee'-kos)
Short Definition: victory
Definition: victory.

Cognate: 3534 níkos (a neuter noun) – victory, particularly the results of a conquest. In the NT, this victory always refers to the conquest accomplished for the believer by Christ (cf. Mt 12:20; 1 Cor 15:54) – which conquered all the powers of darkness (sin). Accordingly, death can not exert conquest over the believer (1 Cor 15:55). See 3528 (nikáō).

Reflection: Christ has already won the day! Thus the believer doesn't fight for victory – but rather from victory!

[The results of Christ's conquest come through faith, i.e. they are transferred by grace to the regenerated believer (1 Cor 15:57).]

Word Origin
a late form of niké
