The Two Witnesses Are Posting On GLP | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 730229 United States 02/16/2011 09:25 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think they arrived in 2008. Quoting: Casual Observer 1257646The Two Witnesses prophecy and the 1260 days found in Revelation chapter 11 represent an area of great interest for many Christians. Many anxiously await the arrival of the two witnesses described in Revelation 11:3-13. According to Rev 11:4 these two witnesses represent; The Two Olive Trees and The Two Lampstands. To clarify the symbolism it is necessary to consider both the text of Revelation chapter 11 and also the portrayal of the two olive trees and the one lampstand mentioned in Zechariah chapter 4. olives However, surprisingly the vital clue to understanding the 2 witnesses prophecy is the period of their witness, ie '1260 days'. Rev 11:3 mentions 1260 days, but many overlook that Rev 12:6 also uses the same expression! Many would be surprised to learn the 'Woman, Child and Dragon' account found in Revelation chapter 12 is the area of Scripture most closely connected with the two witnesses prophecy. What could Revelation chapter 11 have to do with chapter 12? At first sight these two accounts seem to have nothing in common. (The two witnesses story appears to be placed in the future and the woman/child/dragon narrative appears to be discussing the birth of Jesus Christ and the persecution of the church.) Yet, these two accounts both quote the period, 'one thousand two hundred and sixty days'. [link to www.bibleinsight.com] of course we are. We are not speaking ancient hebrew silly. We speak the modern tongue. |

Quoting: Phoenix 2012His reign is 3.5 years or 1260 days? The anti-Christ hates the witnesses and then kills them. He is not able to touch them until their work is done and all the people of the world see and hear them and get another opportunity of warning - chosing. (They speak out against his false claims and speak for God.) He leaves their bodies in the street for a few days to orchestrate sheeple ridicule and hatred against them and celebrations in their deaths on a global level and then their bodies are taken up into heaven. |

Quoting: aka debbiedownerif you notice in verse 17 it says the offspring who KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS AND HAVE A TESTIMONY OF YESHUA! A woman is Biblically symbolic of a church. Thus the persecuted woman is God's true Church, while the woman whore (riding the Beast) is the great false church (the Roman Catholic Church). Beasts in the Bible are about systems, not singular people or Satan himself. How would a church ride on Sstan ? Daniel and Revelation run together so very perfectly, they go together. The Beast is the Roman Empire, and together with the woman (Roman Catholic Church) riding this Roman Empire, it becomes the Holy Roman Empire, of which there are to be 7 revivals, and Mussolini/Hitler was the 6th revival). It talks about there being 10 kings/kingdoms as being this Beast power, which means that 10 nations will be coming together to form the a version of the Roman Empires of the past, and the woman will share power for 1 hour with the Beast, and then the Beast will hate the woman, so they won't always be in agreement, but they will be a huge power-house. Germany has the very biggest economy in Europe, so they will probably be the power-house once yet again this time around. Is it any wonder that Germany is buying the New York Stock Exchange ? That is nearly prophetic if you ask me. Aaron |

Revelations and the scholar User ID: 923772 United States 02/16/2011 09:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Revelations is the book of the Bible that has fueled the creation of the most Christian sects and that is based on misinterpretation of the text. Revelations was written by John while he was imprisoned on an island by the Romans. It was illegal to speak against the Romans so he wrote Revelations in code. He really hated the Romans and its obvious in the text. An example of the misinterpretation is the mark of the beast-666. This is code for the six hills surrounding Rome. I have studied Revelations in school under a professor with a PhD in Revelations. Studying the Bible as an objective scholar is a world away from the literal translations of many. |

But the Saints are more than eager to share their testimony, and will not worship another but Him Who has redeemed us so kindly, generously, lovingly, and graciously by His blood! Saints are being persecuted and martyred throughout the world even now for their testimony, and for them I pray in earnest. |

For those of us that have been sent out to seek the truth. Though it is true that many have found differnt meanings from what they read, I do believe that God lets the chosen ones feel in there souls what is of God, and what is not. I do find it interesting that the Catholic church could be a witness for our salvation. Being raised in the Catholic church, it seems that it would not be a good vessel to comunicate to the average Joe. Though there are plenty of good Christians within the church, I seemed to learn very little untill I got out and explored a more open style of learning from other churches. It seemed as if everything was being taught in Latin????? Seek and you will find. Listen and you will hear.
