Well, it has to be the love of those who are in the true church. So we have then, the church at the end time growing more Laodicean from the inside. It is going away from the doctrines that were once delivered to it. On the outside we have the mystery of iniquity growing in intensity and this, in turn, puts more and more pressure on those who are in the church—more and more pressure to turn away from the truth of God in the conduct of their daily lives. So Jesus says "He that endures to the end..." He's saying, "Hang on!" He is certainly alluding to the fact that there is going to be a great deal of moral and spiritual pressure from anti-moral and anti-Christian forces being put on those who are part of the true church.
