This is a difcult time to live
Standing against the earth-shaking evil powers will be dif-
cult. And life as a Believer in Jesus during this time won’t
be easy. Quite frankly, you may very well be killed. But God
promises that even though you may die on earth standing on
your faith, you’ll go straight to heaven for eternity.
Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, ‘These
who are clothed in the white robes, who are they, and
where have they come from?’ I said to him, ‘My
lord, you know.’ And he said to me, ‘These are the
ones who come out of the great tribulation, and
they have washed their robes and made them
white in the blood of the Lamb. For this reason,
they are before the throne of God; and they serve Him
day and night in His temple; and He who sits on the
throne will spread His tabernacle over them. They
will hunger no longer, nor thirst anymore; nor
will the sun beat down on them, nor any heat; for
the Lamb in the center of the throne will be their shep-
herd, and will guide them to springs of the water of
life; and God will wipe every tear from their eyes.’
Revelation 7:13-17
. . . I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded
because of their testimony of Jesus and because of
the word of God, and those who had not wor-
shiped the beast or his image, and had not
received the mark on their forehead and on
their hand; and they came to life and reigned with
Christ for a thousand years. Revelation 20:4
So there’s incredible hope for you and anyone else who
believes the good news that Jesus offers salvation from eter-
nal damnation. If you believe the good news that Jesus died
for your sins, He will save you from the eternal res of hell.
It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full accep-
tance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save
sinners, 1 Timothy 1:15
