Encouragement
Daniel 11:32b-35
But The People (Believers) who KNOW Their (Believers) GOD (GOD Almighty), shall be STRONG and Carry Out GREAT EXPLOITS. And Those (Believers) of The People who UNDERSTAND, shall INSTRUCT many; yet for Many Days, They (Believers) shall FALL by Sword and Flame, by Captivity and Plundering. Now when They (Believers) FALL, They (Believers) shall be AIDED with a LITTLE HELP; but MANY shall JOIN with Them (Believers) by INTRIGUE. And Some of Those (Believers) of UNDERSTANDING shall FALL, to REFINE Them (Believers), PURIFY Them (Believers), and Make Them (Believers) WHITE, Until The Time of The End; because it is Still for THE APPOINTED TIME.
Zechariah 14:1-5, 11-14
Now The Angel who TALKED with me (Zechariah) came back and WAKENED me (Zechariah), as a man who is wakened out of his sleep. And he (The Angel) said to me (Zechariah), “What do YOU (Zechariah) SEE?” So I (Zechariah) said, “I am LOOKING, and there is a LAMPSTAND of Solid Gold with a Bowl on top of it (The Golden Lampstand), and on The Stand (The Golden Lampstand) SEVEN LAMPS with SEVEN PIPES to The Seven Lamps. TWO OLIVE TREES are by it (The Golden Lampstand), ONE (Olive Tree) at The Right of The Bowl and The OTHER (Olive Tree) at Its (The Bowl’s) Left.”
So I (Zechariah) answered and spoke to The Angel who TALKED with me (Zechariah), saying, “What are THESE, My Lord?” Then The Angel who TALKED with me (Zechariah) answered and said to me, “Do YOU (Zechariah) NOT Know what THESE are?” And I (Zechariah) said, “No, My Lord.”
Then I (Zechariah) answered and said to Him (The Angel), “What are These TWO OLIVE TREES, at The Right of The Lampstand (The Golden Lampstand) and at Its (The Golden Lampstand) Left?” And I (Zechariah) further answered and said to Him (The Angel), “What are These TWO OLIVE BRANCHES that Drip into The Receptacles of The TWO GOLD PIPES from which The GOLDEN OIL Drains?” Then He (The Angel) answered me (Zechariah) and said, “Do YOU (Zechariah) NOT Know what THESE are?” And I (Zechariah) said, “No, My Lord.” So He (The Angel) said, “THESE are The TWO ANOINTED ONES, who STAND Beside The LORD (GOD Almighty) of The Whole Earth.”
Revelation 11:1-14
Then I (John) was GIVEN a REED, like a Measuring Rod. And The Angel stood, saying, “Rise and MEASURE The Temple of GOD (GOD Almighty), The Altar, and Those (Believers) who Worship There. But leave out The Court, which is outside The Temple, and do NOT measure it (The Court), for it (The Court) has been GIVEN to The Gentiles. And they (The Gentiles) will TREAD The Holy City (Jerusalem) UNDERFOOT for Forty-Two (42) Months.
And I (GOD Almighty) will GIVE Power to My (GOD Almighty’s) Two Witnesses, and They (The Two Witnesses) will Prophesy One Thousand Two Hundred and Sixty (1,260) Days, Clothed in Sackcloth.” These (The Two Witnesses) are The Two Olive Trees and The Two Lampstands STANDING Before The GOD (GOD Almighty) of The Earth. And if ANYONE (Unbelievers) wants to HARM Them (The Two Witnesses), FIRE Proceeds from Their (The Two Witnesses) Mouth and Devours Their (The Two Witnesses) Enemies. And if ANYONE (Unbelievers) wants to HARM Them (The Two Witnesses), he (Unbelievers) MUST be KILLED in This Manner. These (The Two Witnesses) have POWER to Shut Heaven, so that NO Rain Falls in The Days of Their (The Two Witnesses) Prophecy; and They (The Two Witnesses) have POWER over waters to turn them (waters) to BLOOD, and to STRIKE The Earth with All Plagues, as often as They (The Two Witnesses) Desire.
When They (The Two Witnesses) Finish Their (The Two Witnesses) Testimony, The Beast that Ascends Out of The Bottomless Pit, will Make War AGAINST Them (The Two Witnesses), OVERCOME Them (The Two Witnesses), and KILL Them (The Two Witnesses). And Their (The Two Witnesses) Dead Bodies will lie in The Street of The Great City (Jerusalem), which Spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also Our Lord (Jesus Christ) was Crucified. Then those (Unbelievers) from The Peoples, Tribes, Tongues, and Nations will SEE Their (The Two Witnesses) Dead Bodies Three-and-a-Half (3-1/2) Days, and NOT Allow Their (The Two Witnesses) Dead Bodies to be put into graves. And those (Unbelievers) who DWELL on The Earth, will REJOICE over Them (The Two Witnesses), make merry, and send gifts to one (Unbelievers) another, because These Two (The Two Witnesses) Prophets TORMENTED those (Unbelievers) who DWELL on The Earth.
Now after The Three-and-a-Half (3-1/2) Days, The Breath of Life from GOD (GOD Almighty) ENTERED Them (The Two Witnesses), and They (The Two Witnesses) STOOD on Their (The Two Witnesses) Feet, and Great Fear fell on those (Unbelievers) who SAW Them (The Two Witnesses). And They (The Two Witnesses) HEARD a Loud Voice from Heaven saying to Them (The Two Witnesses), “Come up HERE.” And They (The Two Witnesses) Ascended to Heaven in a Cloud, and Their (The Two Witnesses) Enemies SAW Them (The Two Witnesses). In The Same Hour, there was a Great Earthquake, and a Tenth of The City (Jerusalem) FELL. In The Earthquake Seven Thousand (7,000) People were KILLED, and the rest were afraid and Gave Glory To The GOD (GOD Almighty) of Heaven. The Second WOE is past. Behold, The Third WOE is Coming Quickly.
Fellow Believers, did YOU (Believers) notice all the attributes of The Two Witnesses? Fire PROCEEDS OUT of Their (The Two Witnesses) Mouths (to DEFEND Themselves), The POWER to Shut The Heavens, so it does NOT rain, The POWER to turn the waters into BLOOD, and finally The Power to Strike The Earth with All Plagues, as often as They (The Two Witnesses) like. So, I guess it’s understandable as to why The People (Unbelievers) would rejoice at Their (The Two Witnesses) Death, and be STRICKEN with FEAR, when They (The Two Witnesses) are RESURRECTED.
Fellow Believers, please note, The Two Witnesses Time Frame, is between The Sixth Trumpet (Revelation 9:13-21) and The Seventh Trumpet (Revelation 11:15-19), also BEFORE John talks about “The Beast of The Sea” (Revelation 13:1-10) and “The Beast of The Earth” (Revelation 13:11-18). John also does NOT give Us (Believers) an actual time frame as to when The Two Witnesses will Prophesy, during The Seven Years, but We (Believers) do KNOW it will be for 3-1/2 Years.
Who are The Two Witnesses YOU (Believers) Ask? Well, unfortunately, I do NOT have an answer for YOU (Believers). Possibilities include: Enoch, Elijah, Moses, or Two Men NOT Spoken of in The Holy Bible. May I suggest YOU (Believers) READ and STUDY The Holy Bible, for Yourselves (Believers), perhaps GOD Almighty will REVEAL The Mystery Answer, to YOU (Believers).PLEASE ENCOURAGE AUTHOR BELOW LEAVE COMMENT ON ARTICLE
