God's promise to those who persevere to the end in the time where iniquity abounds

 "And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved." Matthew 24:12,13

There is a danger: the love of many will grow cold. And here is the cause of it: the increase of iniquity. But there is a promise for those who persevere to the end: they will be saved.

The promise is for those who will remain in the faith to the end, will progress in sanctification to the end, will battle against sin to the end, will reject sin's suggestions and false teachings to the end, will love God's Word to the end. If the love of many grows cold, the faithful few who persevere to the end will continue in God's love.

The end will come soon, but until it arrives, the call remains: persevere!
