Matthew 24:13 (NKJV)
But he who endures to the end shall be saved.
The end here has mistakenly been taken to mean the end of one’s life, but a careful look at the context (vv. 3, 6) makes it evident that it means the “end of the age.” Endures cannot refer to personal self-effort at endurance resulting in eternal salvation, as some cults teach. Rather, it likely refers to physical deliverance from the devastating destruction of the Great Tribulation into the millennial reign with Christ on earth. They will enter the kingdom with physical bodies.
