WE ARE MORE THAN A CONQUEROR

Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. (Romans 8:37).
[THE NKJV STUDY BIBLE Second Edition].
 
37-Here Paul bursts into a magnificent piece of eloquence. This passage, like 1 Cor 3:21-23, is notable for largness of conception and majesty of expression: "No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us" (v37). That is, we win the supreme victory through Christ, who loved us. By saying "loved us", Paul does not intend to restrict Christ's love to the past; he rather is emphasizing the historic demonstration of this love that gives assurance of its continuance under all circumstances.
[NIV BIBLE COMMENTARY Volume 2: New testament].
