When they finish their testimony, the beast that ascends out of the bottomless pit will make war against them, overcome them, and kill them.

"The beast that you saw was, and is not, and will ascend out of the bottomless pit and go to perdition. And those who dwell on the earth will marvel, whose names are not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world, when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

" Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
