  You'd better look for Matthew 24:13, where the same saying occurs in a context which is (apparently) better suited to the WT interpretation.

  For instance, check The Watchtower 10/1/1999, p. 17-21, study article "You Can Endure to the End". Matthew 24:13 occurs in § 4.

  It's intresting that the Jesus in the gospels speaks of "endurance" on the part of his diciples to gain salvation, yet in the epistles you are saved by grace alone... apart from works. So...do believers have to endure to be saved...or is it a "free gift" guaranteed upon acceptance and belief in Jesus?
