14 They will wage war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will triumph over them; for He is Lord of lords and King of kings--and those with Him and on His side are chosen and called [elected] and loyal and faithful followers.
Satan loses and those who join with him lose as well. All who join with him will suffer destruction. These leaders will wage war on Truth. During this time the people of the world will be scared to death, so they will want religion. The anti-christ and the false prophet will give it to them, but Jesus, while mentioned, will be moved to the background, and man will elevated. God will be spoke of, but to bring the muslim world in, I believe that the predominance of Jesus will be removed. They will focus on man, and what we can do if we are unified under one man. There will be miracles and people will be deceived by them. They will preach about how Christianity never unified when Jesus was the focus, so they will wage war on the Truth and those of us who have the Truth. We will be hated, but the Truth that has set us free, is that we are standing beside the glassy sea, empowered and sealed with the Holy Spirit until the day of our redemption. We may be required to be martyred for our Father, but that yoke will be easy and that burden will be light! And Jesus will win!
It is easy to see that we will be hated during the end times. But the glory of it all is that while we will be hated, we will be empowered by our Father to love those who hate us. Our Father will cause us to bless those who curse us. Feed those who despise us. Intercede for those who despitefully use us. We will forgive them as often as they need it. Our Father will never allow us to abandon them and the love of our Lord will flow from us as rivers of living water. Even if they are killing us, we will insure that they are never held accountable for it. Just as our Lord was empowered to cry out for the lost, so will we be empowered.
