18. (a) What woe did Satan the Devil try to make for Jehovah’s loyal slaves before and during World War II? (b) What is the Devil still determined to do, and what will the remaining visions reveal?

¹⁸ The Devil has tried to make woe also for Jehovah’s loyal slaves on earth. Before and during World War II, he spewed forth a deluge of persecution in an effort to drown out the work of “the remaining ones” of God’s womanly organization​—those of the 144,000 still serving among mankind. Jehovah saw to it that the earth, Satan’s own system of things, swallowed up that flood.

(Revelation 12:13-17)
