Howdy, brother!
Here's the verse I was thinking of:
"Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them." (Revelation 14:12, 13)
How are the Tribulation saints 'saved'? They keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
They do not receive salvation as we have, by grace through faith, NOT of works. Keeping the commandments is a work.
And when they die, their souls rest from their labours, and their works follow them.
Perhaps they are at the GWTJ?
