51. (a) Why will great faith be needed on the part of the witnesses of Jehovah on earth at that time? (b) What is the “sharp long sword” that protrudes out of the mouth of the King of kings?

⁵¹ These “armies that were in heaven,” under the command of the King of kings, will not make themselves visible to the embattled nations on earth.

Yet those invisible armies will make their activity in battle felt by all the nations under the leadership of Gog of Magog, Satan the Devil.
