My Journey to Life, Step 22—The Remnant
1. What is the remnant?
In Revelation, John describes the dragon’s battle with the woman and her descendants using the phrase “the rest of her offspring” (Revelation 12:17). That expression means “remaining ones.” The remnant, then, are the small group of people through the ages who have remained loyal to God through persecution, calamities, wars, and apostasy. We could say that this faithful remnant was the rootstock God used to propagate His visible church on earth. JTL22 3.1
