17Then the dragon became angry with the woman and went away to do battle against the rest of her children, the ones who keep God's commandments and hold on to the testimony about Jesus.Gen 3:15; 1Cor 2:1; 1John 5:10; Rev 1:2, 9; 6:9; 11:7; 13:7; 14:13; 20:4

Revelation of John 13:10

10If anyone is to be taken captive,Gen 9:6; Isa 33:1; Matt 26:52; Rev 14:12

he must go into captivity.

If anyone is to be killed with a sword,

he must be killed with a sword.

This is what the endurance and faith of the saints means.
