The Scriptures also show that from and after 1918 all the true and faithful followers of Christ Jesus on earth must bear testimony to the truth as a witness to the rulers and to the peoples of the nations of earth; and that when this witness work is completed and the people have received notice, then there will come upon the world tribulation such as never before was known. That tribulation will be the battle of Armageddon, or the battle of the great day of God Almighty, which will completely wreck Satan’s organization and clear the way for the complete setting up of God’s kingdom of righteousness on earth amongst men.

The whole period of time from 1914 until the complete passing away of Satan’s organization may be properly called a period of tribulation.
