7. Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the sacraments of the Church.
"The Christian meaning of death is revealed in the light of the Paschal Mystery of the Death and Resurrection of Christ in whom resides our only hope. The Christian who dies in Christ Jesus is 'away from the body and at home with the Lord' (2 Cor 5:8)."
- Catechism of the Catholic Church, no. 1681
Jesus said, "Do not be afraid of anything that you are going to suffer. Indeed, the devil will throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and you will face an ordeal for ten days. Remain faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life." (Revelation 2:10). The Virgin Mary is making the promise that devotion to the Rosary, meditating on the life of Our Lord and His Mother, carries great weight in the eyes of the Lord. Jesus states that we must persevere not being afraid of suffering. The devil will try to throw spit balls at you testing to see if you will be faithful.
