Daniel 7:25 And he [prince, beast, antichrist, man-by-satan (MbS)] shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to ‘change times and laws’: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. (3.5 years).

Paul Rolland | Night Watchman | Night Watchman Ministries | (5) MbS Beheads The Tribulation Saints

Seven-fold Acknowledgement of the Tribulation Saints (Martyrs):

“And (7) when he (Jesus Christ – The Lamb) had (7) opened the fifth seal, I saw under (7) the altar the souls of them that (7) were ‘BEHEADED’ for the word of God, (7) and for the testimony which they held: (7) And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How (7) long, O Lord, holy and true, dost (7) thou not judge and avenge our blood (7) on them that dwell on the earth? And ‘WHITE (7) ROBES’ were given unto every one of (7) them, that they should rest yet for (7) a little season, until their fellow servants (7) also and their brethren, that should be (7) killed as they were, should be fulfilled.” (Rev. 6:9-11). (7777777) + (7777777) = 14×7.

“And they overcame him (7) (Beast-Antichrist) by the blood of the Lamb, (7) and by the word of their testimony; and (7) they loved not their lives unto death.” (Rev. 12:11). (777)

“And he had power (7) to give life unto the image of (7) the beast, that the image of the (7) beast should both speak, and cause that (7) as many as would not worship the (7) image of the beast should be killed.” (Rev. 13:15). (77777) 5×7.

(7) “Here is the patience of the saints: (7) here are they that keep the commandments (7) of God, and the faith of Jesus. And (7) I heard a voice from heaven saying (7) unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead (7) which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea saith the (7) Spirit, that they may rest from their (7) labours; and their works do follow them.” (Rev. 14:12-13). (7777) + (7777) = 8×7.

“And I saw as it were (7) a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them (7) that had gotten the victory over the (7) beast, and over his image, and over (7) his mark, and over the number of (7) his name, having the harps of God.” (Rev. 15:2). (77777) 5×7.

“For true and righteous are (7) his judgements: for he hath judged the (7) great whore, which did corrupt the earth (7) with her fornication, and hath avenged the (7) blood of his servants at her hand.” (Rev. 19:2). (7777)

“And I saw thrones, (7) and they sat upon them, and judgement (7) was given unto them: and I saw (7) souls of them that were beheaded for (7) the witness of Jesus, and for the (7) word of God, and which had not (7) worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither (7) had received his mark upon their foreheads, (7) or in their hands; and they lived (7) and reigned with Christ a thousand years.” (Rev. 20:4).

(777) + (777) + (777) = 9×7. Nine (‘9’) is God’s (7) Divine Number denoting His ‘JUDGEMENT OR JUDGING’. (7) In this case, God is referring to (7) His ‘Judgement’ that ‘is given’ to the (7) Tribulation Saints, on behalf of the Prince, (7) Beast, Antichrist who SLAIN AND BEHEADED THEM.

(77777) 5X7. Five (‘5’) is God’s Divine Number denoting Satanic (7) ‘INFLUENCE, BEHAVIOR’ OVER EVIL MAN OR MAN’KIND. (7) In this case, God is referring to (7) THE ‘EVIL PRINCE, BEAST, ANTICHRIST, MAN-BY-SATAN, MBS.’

(777) 3X7. Three (‘3’) is God’s Divine Number denoting His (7) ‘INTENSITY, EMPHASIS OF A MATTER OR THING.’ (7) In this case, God is referring to (5) THE EXTREME EVILNESS OF THE (7) PRINCE, BEAST, ANTICHRIST, over God’s Tribulation Saints.

Seven (‘7’) is God’s (7) Divine Number denoting His ‘TRUTH OR TRUTHFULNESS.’

Commentary: The Bible makes it abundantly clear that the Tribulation Saints are those people that become Christians during the period of the antichrist’s reign on earth, over the seven (7) year period. How do they become Saints in the eyes of Christ? They believe in and accept Christ as their Savior and for the forgiveness of their sins. They do NOT take the mark of the beast or the antichrist. They do NOT worship the beast/antichrist. They do NOT worship his image. They DO witness to the word of God and Jesus. They ARE killed by BEHEADING for believing in Jesus and witnessing for Him. They DO share in many of blessings and rewards that are also awarded to Christians from the Church Age (at the Rapture/Harpazo and Bema Seat Judgement). There is a very clear distinction between Christians redeemed by Christ prior to the Tribulation period, and those Christians redeemed during the Tribulation period. It is clear that they have to come to a saving grace knowledge of Jesus Christ, withstood the best efforts of Satan / Antichrist / False Prophet to thwart their salvation, and are BEHEADED for their belief IN and witnessing of Jesus Christ.

Seven-fold Reference (7) of White Raiment / Robes / Linen to Righteousness:

White RAIMENT for the 24 Elders.

White ROBES for the Tribulation Saints.

White LINEN for the Angels.

White LINEN for the Church Age Saints.

(7) “Thou hast a few names even in (7) Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and (7) they shall walk with me in ‘WHITE’; (7) for they are worthy. He that overcometh, (7) the same shall be CLOTHED IN ‘WHITE (7) RAIMENT’ and I will not blot out (7) his name out of the book of (7) life, but I will confess his name (7) before my Father, and before his angels.” (Rev. 3:4-5).

 (777) + (777) + (777) = 9X7. Nine (‘9’) is God’s Divine Number denoting His ‘Judging or Judgement.’ In this case, God is referring to the 24 Elders whose (Works) have been ‘Judged-by-Fire’ by Jesus Christ at the BEMA SEAT and have been found ‘to be worthy.’ Jesus will acknowledge these Elders to the Angels. He indicates that they are ‘overcomers’ in whatever mission or ministry they were given on Earth. And that they ‘shall walk’ with God / Jesus in their ‘White Raiment’ of Righteousness.

“I counsel thee (7) to buy of me gold tried in (7) the fire, that thou mayest be rich; (7) and ‘WHITE RAIMENT’, that thou mayest be (7) clothed, and that the shame of thy (7) nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine (7) eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.” (Rev. 3:18).

(666666) 6X7. Six is God’s Divine Number denoting ‘Man or Men.’ In this case, God is referring to the 24 Elders who come from the Church Age who are ‘ANOINTED’, ‘HAVE SPIRITUAL EYES TO SEE SPIRITUAL THINGS’, AND THEY ARE ‘RICH’ BECAUSE THEIR WORKS AND FAITH HAVE BEEN TRIED BY FIRE AT THE BEMA SEAT OF CHRIST.

“And round about (7) the throne were ‘FOUR AND TWENTY SEATS’: and (7) upon the seats I saw ‘FOUR AND (7) TWENTY ELDERS’ sitting, clothed in ‘WHITE RAIMENT’; and they (7) had on their heads crowns of gold.” (Rev. 4:4) (7777)

(7) “And ‘WHITE ROBES’ were given unto every (7) one of them; and it was said (7) unto them, that they should rest yet (7) for a little season, until their fellow-servants (7) also and their brethren, that should be (7) killed as they were, should be fulfilled.” (Rev. 6:11). (777777) 6X7.

” After this I beheld, and, (7) lo, a great multitude, which no man (7) could number, of all nations, and kindreds, (7) and people, and tongues, stood before the (7) throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with (7) ‘WHITE ROBES’, and palms in their hands; . . . And one (7) of the elders answered, saying unto me, (6) What are these which are arrayed (7) in ‘WHITE ROBES’? And whence came they? And (7) I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he (7) said to me, These are they which (6) came out of the ‘GREAT TRIBULATION’, and (7) have washed their ‘ROBES’ and made them (7) ‘WHITE’ in the blood of the Lamb.” (Rev. 7:9, 13, 14).  

(The ‘Great Tribulation’ is the final 3.5 years, when the Antichrist Beheads those who will not worship him or his image.)

(777777) + (777777) = 12X7. Twelve (‘12’) is God’s Divine Number (7) denoting His ‘GOVERNMENT, GOVERNANCE ON/OF THE EARTH.’ In this case, (7) He is referring to the ‘TRIBULATION SAINTS,’ and (7) not to Church Age Men or Angels. (777)

“And the ‘SEVEN ANGELS’ came (7) out of the temple, having the seven (7) plagues, clothed in pure and ‘WHITE LINEN’, and (7) having their breasts girded with golden girdles.” (Rev. 15:6). (777)

“Let us (7) be glad and rejoice, and give honour (7) to him: for the marriage of the (7) Lamb is come, and his wife hath (7) made herself ready. And to her was (7) granted that she should be arrayed in (7) FINE LINEN, clean and WHITE for the (7) ‘FINE LINEN’ is the righteousness of saints.” (Rev. 19:7-8). (7777777) 7×7. (‘marriage,’ ‘wife,’ ‘herself,’ ‘her,’ ‘she’ = The Church Age Saints, The Redeemed, The True Church, The Bride of Christ, The Body of Christ.)

Commentary: In John’s Revelation of Jesus Christ, white raiment, linens or robes are used as metaphors for having, and describing the righteousness of Christ. Who are these people that are described as having white raiment, linens or robes? Rev. 3:4-5 indicates that they are overcomers (those who remain faithful to Christ until the end of their lives). Rev. 4:4 indicates that they are the 24 crowned elders around the throne of God. These crowned elders represent a select group of redeemed saints from throughout the ages (they are not angels) and are part of God’s divine council of government. The number twelve (12) denotes a divinely constituted organization either in heaven or on earth. The number twenty-four (24) denotes God’s abundant (doubled) organizational arrangement in Heaven. (12×2). The verses surrounding (Rev. 6:11) indicate that these people who received white robes and were told to wait a little longer are the “Tribulation Saints martyred/beheaded for their belief in and witness of Christ.” (Rev. 19:7-8) clearly indicates this group of people is the “Bride (church) of the Lamb”, which his redeemed people from the past, present and near future (until the Tribulation).

Christian group launches first-ever religious violence database tracking global persecution

By Anugrah Kumar, Christian Post Contributor Sunday, January 07, 2024

A database tracking incidents of violent religious persecution worldwide has been launched by Global Christian Relief, a U.S.-based group monitoring Christian persecution. The Violent Incidents Database stands as the first and only events-based global religious freedom dataset of its kind. The VID, accessible to the public, catalogs over a dozen types of violence, including killings, arrests, abductions, sexual harassment, pressure and forced marriages. It allows searches by country, religion and perpetrator, offering an unprecedented level of verification, the group says.

(7) Paul Rolland, Night Watchman, Night Watchman Ministries:

Revelation 13:4 And they worshipped the dragonwhich ‘GAVE POWER’ unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?  

5 And there ‘WAS GIVEN’ unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies;and power ‘WAS GIVEN’ unto him to continue forty and two months.

6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and histabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.

7 And (5) it ‘WAS GIVEN’ unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them:  and power ‘WAS GIVEN’ him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

*******

The perpetrators responsible for persecution include ethnic group leaders, extended family, government officials, ideological pressure groups, multilateral organizations, civilians, organized crime, political parties, religious leaders, revolutionaries or paramilitary groups, and violent religious groups. The database, which began recording global reports of violent attacks in 2022, is currently tracking more than 6,000 (6) incidents, according to GCR.

666 – The ‘Number’ of an Evil Man, Evil Beast and Evil False Prophet.

Evil mankind (6) + evil beast/antichrist (6) + evil false prophet (6) = 666 (a literal number represented by the number 6, repeated three times in a linear row.)

666

The infamous, “Mark of the Beast” and “number of his name is 666” imagery is no different than any of the other generalized, descriptive terms that John the Apostle used, while in his banishment on the Isle of Patmos. Rev. 13:17-18 is probably the most symbolic, well known and most poorly understood two verses in the book of Revelation, and in the entire Bible. “And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man: and his number is Six hundred, threescore and six (666).” (Emphasis added).

(6) The Number of an Evil Man:

Verse 13:18 clearly states that 666 (6) is a number of a man … not a number of an angel, not a number of Satan (which is ‘5’), Devil, serpent or dragon, nor of any kind of reference to Babylon (city) or Mystery Babylon (false religion). The reference is literally to man (mankind), the beast/antichrist (a literal, physical man) and the false prophet (a literal, physical man). Each of them is judged to be extremely evil and each is therefore assigned a number of six (6) to represent the imperfection, sinfulness and evilness of man, before God. Combining the number of each type of man leads to 666, this (6) number represents the totality of evil, of the three men. ‘7’ The number three (3) denotes intensity and emphasis. The fact that the number six (6) is repeated three (3) times emphasizes the most intense evil that mankind, antichrist, and the false prophet (6) collectively possess during the tribulation period. Evil doesn’t come any worse, or more intensely than this. Period. When the bible states an important reference to someone or something, the word ‘7’ of God is very specific and literal. There should be no confusion. To understand why the number six (6) represents evil, Verse 13:18 (6) tells us to “count” his number.

“This database helps give a voice to the voiceless by recording and sharing details of specific attacks suffered by Christians and other people of faith globally,” says GCR’s CEO David Curry. “Our hope is that this remarkable resource will be utilized by anyone advocating and reporting on behalf of the persecuted church.” The Violent Incidents Database’s research is funded by GCR and conducted by the International Institute for Religious Freedom, a leading think tank in religious freedom. “We live in a world where the violent persecution of Christians and other religious groups is rampant and increasing,” says Ronald Boyd-MacMillan, GCR’s Chief of Global Strategy and Research. “This database not only helps us track the violence but helps us better understand what persecuted Christians really need from their brothers and sisters around the world.”

(7) Paul Rolland, Night Watchman, Night Watchman Ministries:

Daniel 8:23 (7) “And in the latter time of their (7) kingdom, when the transgressors are come to (7) the full, a king of fierce countenance, (7) and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.

Daniel 8:24 And his power shall (7) be mighty, but not by his own (7) power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, (7) and shall prosper, and practice, and shall (7) destroy the mighty and the holy people.

Daniel 8:25 (7) And through his policy also he shall (7) cause craft to prosper in his hand; (7) and he shall magnify himself in his (7) heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also (7) stand up against the Prince of princes; (7) but he shall be broken without hand.”

*******

The database will be featured at the International Religious Freedom Summit in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 30-31. It will also contribute to the upcoming GCR Global Religious Freedom Index, a comprehensive tool launching this spring, the group says. According to Aid to the Church in Need, over 4.9 billion people reside in countries with severe violations of religious freedom. These 4.9 billion people live in 61 countries, where the state of religious freedom, as secured in Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, looks grim, said an ACN report titled “Religious Freedom in the World Report 2023” that covered the period from January 2021 to December 2022.

“It means that 62% of humanity lives in countries where people are not free to practice, express or change their religion,” ACN said. “Culprits of religious freedom violations range from armed terror groups to authoritarian governments, but the rule continues to be one of impunity for attackers who are rarely, if ever, brought to justice or criticized by the international community.”

Largest mass execution in recent memory: Saudi Arabia executes 81 men in one day

Of the 61 countries, 28 were marked in red, denoting “hot countries” where persecution is rampant, while an additional 33 were marked in orange, indicating high levels of discrimination. The GCR’s VID aims to record violations of religious freedom, with an emphasis on tracking violence on five continents, but doesn’t claim exhaustive coverage, according to IIRF, which notes that the data is based on reports published in digital media available on the internet. “Many incidents are never made public or do not receive sufficient attention from authorities or media,” it acknowledges.

Seven-fold Reference to Christian Patience:

“I John, who also am (7) your brother, and companion in tribulation, and (7) in the kingdom and patience of Jesus (7) Christ, was in the isle that is (7) called Patmos, for the word of God, (7) and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.” (Rev. 1:9). (77777) 5×7.

“I know thy works, (7) and thy labour, and thy patience, and (7) how thou canst not bear them which (7) are evil: and thou hast tried them (7) which say they are apostles, and they (7) are not, and has found them liars:” (Rev. 2:2). (77777) 5×7.

“And hast borne, (7) and hast patience, and for my name’s (7) sake hast labored, and hast not fainted.” (Rev. 2:3). (77)

“I know (7) thy works, and charity, and service, and (7) faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the (7) last to be more than the first.” (Rev. 2:19). (777)

“Because thou (7) hast kept the word of my patience, I also will (7) keep thee from the hour of temptation, (7) which shall come upon all the world, to (7) try them that dwell upon the earth.” (Rev. 3:10). (7777)

(7) “He that leadeth into captivity shall go (7) into captivity: he that killeth with the (7) sword must be killed with the sword. Here is (7) the patience and faith of the saints.” (Rev. 13:10). (7777)

(7) “Here is the patience of the saints: (7) here are they that keep the commandments (7) of God, and the faith of Jesus.” (Rev. 14:12). (777)

Commentary: When Christ is using the term patience, he is referring to the patience Christians have with one another. He is referring to the patience he has for us. He is acknowledging our patience in waiting for him and our effort to seek his will and word. It takes time, and patience to effectively study the word of God, and to wait and wait, and wait on God to answer a faithful prayer. Something that is almost gone in our culture today. Christ ranks patience, up there with faith works, charity, service and faith. It is that important, and overlooked by many Christians. It is because of this Christ repeats himself seven times to signify its importance. As an American, I’m just as guilty of this as most of us in our culture. Time is too short things don’t go fast enough. I stress out when I’m stuck in two hours commute on the freeway, just to get downtown. We want things now, not later. Eternity? What’s that? I’m trying to make it through the day and get the kids to soccer practice by 6:00pm (or earlier).

As I said, patience and time are a lost commodity today, and Christ knows this. Just as an Olympic athlete (as of the time I write this) has had to train hard and for a long time; they know they will have to be patient for their performance to improve, for their times to come down or for their speed or for strength or accuracy to improve. Results and improvements do not happen overnight. It takes patience, dedication and discipline. The same skills Christ wants us to acquire in this life for his eternal kingdom. Physical training for the Olympics and spiritual Christian discipleship both take great patience to overcome the stumbling blocks and setbacks that eventually befall all of us. We have to pick ourselves up, to have the patience to keep moving forward and to not give in to the temptations and idols of this world.

Christ knows how (7) hard it is to acquire the skill (7) of patience and values this attribute greatly. (77)

The White Horseman Prince Beast Antichrist Mahdi Rides a White Arabian Stallion.

Revelation 6:2 And I saw, (7) and behold a white horse: and he (7) that sat on him had a bow; (7) and a crown was given unto him: and (7) he went forth conquering, and to conquer. (7777)

Commentary; the rider is the ‘beast’ or ‘antichrist’. His being clothed in white suggests ‘3’ false righteousness, false peace and false authority. He has a bow, but no arrows. He rules with lies and threats, but no military or arms. He conquers and subjugates, not with force but with ‘5’ lies, deception, false covenants and false agreements and false promises. He is the world’s greatest ‘political’ leader and deceiver. He is the one who ‘confirms the false covenant of seven years with Jacob’ which starts the tribulation. You should know now of who I speak. His ‘crown’ represents authority, rulership and position. It even literally represents his ‘position’ as Crown Prince, once the tribulation begins. My discernment is that the ‘white horse upon which he sits’ is symbolically a white Arabian stallion.

Through the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ testifies who is he is and his offer of salvation for mankind, through the forgiveness of their sins, the shedding of his blood and his resurrection. Through the Holy Spirit, Jesus communicates (witnesses) the who, what, where, when, why and how of mankind’s salvation. This is known as the gospel of Jesus Christ. Once again, seven (7) references regarding the Holy Spirit witnessing to Christ denotes God’s divine purpose and plan.

Make Your (7) Decision for Christ NOW!!!!!!! Time is Up!!!!!!!

Jesus Christ’s Offer of Salvation:

The ABCs (7) of Salvation through Jesus Christ (the Lamb)

A. (7) Admit/Acknowledge/Accept that you are sinner. Ask (7) God’s forgiveness and repent of your sins.

. . . “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23).

. . . “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one.” (Romans 3:10).

. . . “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.” (1 John 1:8).

B. Believe Jesus is Lord. Believe that (7) Jesus Christ is who He claimed to (7) be; that He was both fully God (7) and fully man and that we are (7) saved through His death, burial, and resurrection. (7) Put your trust in Him as your (7) only hope of salvation. Become a son (7) or daughter of God by receiving Christ. (7777777) 7×7

. . . “That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. (John 3:15-17). For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13).

C. Call upon His name, Confess (7) with your heart and with your lips (7) that Jesus is your Lord and Savior.

. . . “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10:9-10).

. . . “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.” (John 1:8-10).

. . . “And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. (John 2:2).

. . . “In this was manifested the love of god toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.” (1 John 4:9, 14-15).

. . . “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.” (Romans 5:8-10).

. . . “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23).

. . . “Jesus saith unto them, I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6).

. . . “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth.” (Romans 1:16).

. . . “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” (Acts: 4:12).

. . . “Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth for there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.” (1 Timothy 2:4-6).

. . . “For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.” (1 Thessalonians 5:9).

. . . “But as many as received him, to them gave the power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.” (John 1:12).

True Church / Bride of Christ Spared from God’s Wrath:

 Romans 5:8-10. “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.”

Romans 12:19. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 1:10. And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

1 Thessalonians 5:9. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

Romans 8:35. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Jeremiah 30:7. Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble, but he shall be saved out of it.

Revelation 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
