Veni vidi vici is a Latin phrase that means “I came, I saw, I conquered.” Come to think of it, this sums up the mission of Jesus Christ. He came from heaven unto earth (John 3:13) to be an atonement for sin (Romans 5:11) and to offer his life as a ransom for many (Mark 10:45), to bring many sons [and daughters] unto glory (Hebrews 2:10). He saw the world with a heart of compassion for they were like a sheep without a shepherd (Mark 6:34), under the bondage (law) of sin and death (Galatians 5:1; Romans 8:2); a truly plentiful harvest but few laborers (Matthew 9:37). He conquered death, its power and vanquished the devil (Hebrews 2:14-15) by rising from death and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God (Hebrews 12:2), the Father, awaiting our response to put our trust in Him, and believing in Him, so that we may have eternal life (John 3:16).
