It signifies the overcoming of evil, sin, and the world through faith in Jesus Christ. The term encapsulates the ultimate triumph of God's kingdom and the believer's participation in that victory through Christ.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek culture, "niké" was personified as a goddess representing victory, often depicted with wings and associated with success in war and competition. The concept of victory was highly esteemed in Greek society, symbolizing not only military success but also personal achievement and honor. In the New Testament context, this term is redefined to emphasize spiritual victory through Christ, contrasting with the temporal victories celebrated in the Greco-Roman world.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 3529</b> <i>níkē</i> (a feminine noun) – <i>conquest</i>;
