Colossians 2:15 states Christ had victory.. "In this way, he disarmed the spiritual rulers and authorities. He shamed them publicly by his victory over them on the cross."
But according to most traditions Satan will have victory and the majority of the world will find themselves in a hopeless situation due to their own unwillingness or according to John Calvin the simple fact God chose only a few to redeem.
How can this be so when victory of the cross and Christ defeated the evil serpent who destroyed creation in the very beginning? Does Satan actually have the victory when only a few gain the gift of redemption?
