God remains victorious over the Anti-Christ, though for a time it will look like God's people are being defeated (revelation 13:5-10). At the set time Jesus will destroy satan as it were with one breath (2 Thessalonians 2:8; Revelation 19:11-21).
John writes, "Here is the patience and the faith of the saints" (Revelation 13:10).
When troubles are overwhelming, our faith and hope remain in God. We may loose everything here, but no one can touch inheritance in Christ (John 10:28; Ephesians 1:11-12, 18-19; Colossians 1:12-14, 3:24-25; 1 Peter 1:3-5).
