As I thought upon a message to the graduates of 1952, who are actually just beginning their training period, no verse could have presented a greater challenge than 11 Corinthians 2:14: “But thanks be unto God, who always leadeth us in triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest through us the savor of his knowledge in every place.” This verse has always been a source of real comfort and joy to me in the ministry. The Apostle had need to rejoice because his heart had been burdened with the failure of the Corinthian Christians. Although they had failed, he realized that his root of thanks was in the Lord Jesus Christ. It is a constant strength and consolation to remember that the source of all thanks is God. Men may fail us, but He never fails. Most of us have probably learned some of the positional truth of this verse, but I wonder if we have grasped the message of II Corinthians 2:14 in everyday working experience. God always “leadeth us in triumph in Christ.” Surely it is easy to recognize the triumph when we ourselves are enjoying the victory, but that situation does not always prevail. Many times the weakness of our flesh takes us from the place of victory. The word “triumph” in the Greek carries the force of an acclamatory procession of victory. The word originally meant a hymn sung to Bacchus, the Greed god of wine. Because wine is universally a symbol of triumph, the word developed the meaning of a triumphal procession. Two kinds of persons were led in triumph: the participators of the victory and the victims of defeat. In Colossians 2:15, the only other occurance of the word in the New Testament, the victims of defeat are meant: “Having despoiled the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.” If the word does not carry the same force in this verse, at least the application of the truth is involved. In the course of our spiritual walk, is it not true that our only triumphs are God’s triumphs over us? His defeats of us are our real victories. Truly here is food for thought, During a triumph sweet spices and fragrant flowers were thrown about the streets causing a diffusion of a sweet savor. The approach of a triumphal procession was made known by these odors. In like manner God diffuses by our means the sweet odor of the knowledge of Christ. God has chosen us to be the vessels to carry the savor of His knowledge to every place. Sweet odors have a way of permeating every inch of territory. God desires that we make manifest the savor of His knowledge in every place. The challenge is a world challenge. DEAN’S MESSAGE Paul C. Wilt
