Истории Stephanos

There are no counterfeit signs found anywhere in Scripture. That's why all the references to God, Christ, or to the saints are typically couched in white imagery. What is more, the language of Rev. 6.2 is consistent with the faithful. For example, the stephanos crown is a consistent symbol of victory for the believers in Christ. Similarly, the Greek word nikao only refers to overcomers in Christ and cannot possibly be attributed to an Antichrist figure. In fact, the biblical term "victory" (nikao) is intimately associated with Christ's resurrection from the dead, which ultimately results in the conquering of death itself (see 1 Cor. 15.54, 57), while the metaphor of the "bow" represents God's covenant with the human race (see Gen. 9.13 LXX)!
