We have been removed from a dark realm and transferred into a kingdom of light. Jesus is the One who accomplishes this transfer. He does this by silencing the Evil One, and by stating explicitly that you are his. And every time the devil utters anything contrary, Jesus silences him with his word of authority. The Lord we serve silences evil, so we may speak his praises. Let us praise the Lord who shuts the mouths of evil doers and opens ours to taste bread and wine.
