The Two Olive Trees, The Two Anointed Ones, The Two Witnesses

Zechariah 4:1-3, 11-14

 

Now, The Angel (GOD Almighty’s Holy Angel) WHO TALKED WITH Me (Zechariah) CAME BACK AND WAKENED Me, AS A Man Who IS WAKENED OUT OF His Sleep.  And He (The Angel) SAID TO Me, “WHAT DO YOU SEE?”  SO I SAID, “I AM LOOKING, AND THERE IS A LAMPSTAND OF SOLID GOLD, WITH A BOWL ON TOP OF IT, AND ON THE STAND, Seven (7) LAMPS, WITH Seven (7) PIPES, TO THE Seven (7) LAMPS.  TWO OLIVE TREES ARE BY IT, One AT The Right OF THE BOWL, AND The Other AT ITS Left.”

THEN, I (Zechariah) ANSWERED AND SAID TO Him (The Angel), “WHAT ARE THESE TWO OLIVE TREES, AT The Right OF THE LAMPSTAND AND AT ITS Left?”  AND I 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 AND SAID, “DO YOU NOT KNOW WHAT THESE ARE?”  AND I SAID, “NO, My Lord.”  SO He (The Angel) SAID, “THESE ARE THE TWO ANOINTED ONES, WHO STAND BESIDE The LORD OF The Whole Earth.”

Revelation 1:1, 9-10, 12-13, 16, 20

THE REVELATION OF Jesus Christ, Which GOD (GOD Almighty) GAVE Him TO SHOW His (Jesus Christ’s) Servants (Believers), THINGS, Which MUST SHORTLY TAKE PLACE.  AND He (Jesus Christ) SENT AND SIGNIFIED IT, BY His Angel TO His Servant, John.

I, John, BOTH Your Brother AND Companion, IN The Tribulation, AND KINGDOM, AND Patience OF Jesus Christ, WAS ON The Island, That IS Called, Patmos, FOR THE WORD OF GOD (GOD Almighty) AND FOR THE TESTIMONY OF Jesus Christ.  I WAS IN THE Spirit, ON THE LORD’s DAY, AND I HEARD Behind Me A LOUD VOICE, AS OF A TRUMPET.  THEN, I TURNED TO SEE The VOICE That SPOKE WITH Me.

And Having TURNED, I SAW Seven (7) GOLDEN LAMPSTANDS, AND IN The Midst OF The Seven (7) LAMPSTANDS, One LIKE The Son OF Man (Jesus Christ), CLOTHED WITH A GARMENT Down TO The Feet AND GIRDED About The Chest WITH A GOLDEN BAND.  He (Jesus Christ) Had IN His Right Hand Seven (7) STARS, OUT OF His Mouth WENT A Sharp Two-Edged SWORD, AND His Countenance WAS LIKE The Sun, SHINING IN ITS STRENGTH.

The Mystery OF The Seven STARS, Which YOU (John) SAW, IN My (Jesus Christ’s) Right Hand, AND The Seven (7) GOLDEN LAMPSTANDS: The Seven (7) STARS ARE The Angels (GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels) OF The Seven (7) CHURCHES, AND The Seven (7) LAMPSTANDS, Which YOU (John) SAW, ARE The Seven (7) CHURCHES.

Revelation 4:1

AFTER THESE THINGS, I (John) LOOKED, AND Behold, A DOOR, STANDING OPEN IN Heaven.  AND The First VOICE, Which I HEARD, WAS LIKE A TRUMPET SPEAKING WITH Me, SAYING, “COME UP HERE, AND I WILL SHOW YOU THINGS, Which MUST TAKE PLACE, AFTER THIS.”

Revelation 11:1-6

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 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 (Evil-Doers AND Unbelievers).

AND They (The Gentiles/Evil-Doers AND Unbelievers) WILL TREAD THE HOLY CITY (Jerusalem), UNDERFOOT, FOR Forty-Two (42) Months.  AND I (GOD Almighty) WILL GIVE POWER TO My Two Witnesses, AND They (The Two Witnesses) WILL PROPHESY One Thousand Two Hundred AND Sixty (1,260) Days, CLOTHED IN SACKCLOTH.”

THESE ARE THE TWO OLIVE TREES AND THE TWO LAMPSTANDS, STANDING BEFORE THE GOD (GOD Almighty) OF The Earth.  And IF ANYONE (Evil-Doers OR Unbelievers) WANTS TO HARM Them (The Two Witnesses), FIRE PROCEEDS FROM Their (The Two Witnesses) Mouth AND DEVOURS Their (The Two Witnesses) ENEMIES (Evil-Doers OR Unbelievers).  AND IF ANYONE (Evil-Doers OR Unbelievers) WANTS TO HARM Them (The Two Witnesses), He (Evil-Doers OR Unbelievers) MUST BE KILLED IN THIS MANNER (By Fire).  THESE (The Two Witnesses) HAVE POWER TO SHUT Heaven, SO That NO Rain Falls, IN THE DAYS OF Their (The Two Witnesses) PROPHECY (42 Months); AND They (The Two Witnesses) HAVE POWER OVER Waters, TO TURN Them (The Waters) TO BLOOD, AND TO STRIKE The Earth, WITH ALL PLAGUES, AS OFTEN AS They (The Two Witnesses) DESIRE.

Revelation 11:7-10

WHEN They (The Two Witnesses) FINISH Their TESTIMONY, The BEAST (The Antichrist, THROUGH Satan) 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 (Evil-Doers AND 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 (Evil-Doers AND Unbelievers) Who Dwell ON The Earth, WILL REJOICE OVER Them (The Dead Bodies OF The Two Witnesses), MAKE MERRY, AND SEND GIFTS TO One Another, BECAUSE THESE TWO PROPHETS (The Two Witnesses), TORMENTED Those (Evil-Doers AND Unbelievers) Who DWELL ON The Earth.

Revelation 11:11-14

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 STOOD ON Their Feet (ALIVE), AND GREAT FEAR FELL ON Those (Evil-Doers AND 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 Enemies (Evil-Doers AND Unbelievers) 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.

Matthew 17:1-3

Now AFTER Six Days, Jesus TOOK Peter, James, AND John, His (James’) Brother, LED Them UP ON A High Mountain, BY Themselves; AND He (Jesus) WAS TRANSFIGURED BEFORE Them.  His (Jesus’) Face SHONE Like The Sun, AND His (Jesus’) Clothes BECAME AS White AS The LIGHT.  And Behold, Moses AND Elijah APPEARED TO Them, TALKING WITH Him (Jesus).

[See Also: Mark 9:2-4]

Luke 9:28-31

Now, IT CAME TO PASS, About Eight Days, AFTER These Sayings, That He (Jesus) TOOK Peter, John, AND James, AND WENT UP ON The Mountain TO Pray.  AS He (Jesus) Prayed, The APPEARANCE OF His (Jesus’) Face WAS ALTERED, AND His (Jesus’) Robe BECAME White AND GLISTENING.  And Behold, Two Men TALKED WITH Him (Jesus), WHO WERE Moses AND Elijah, WHO APPEARED, IN GLORY, AND SPOKE OF His (Jesus’) DECEASE, Which He (Jesus) WAS ABOUT TO ACCOMPLISH, AT Jerusalem.

Fellow Believers, there has been and continues to be, Much Speculation, ON WHO ARE The Two Witnesses.  Well, HERE ARE Three Possibilities: Enoch, Moses, AND Elijah.  I myself, lean towards Moses AND Elijah.  After All, What WAS The Point OF The Transfiguration?  [See: Matthew 17:1-9, Mark 9:2-10, AND Luke 9:28-36]  YES, GOD Almighty PROCLAIMS, “THIS IS MY BELOVED SON, IN WHOM, I AM WELL PLEASED.  HEAR HIM!”  [See: Matthew 17:5, Mark 9:7, AND Luke 9:35]  But, What WAS The Significance OF BOTH, Moses AND Elijah, Being Present?  After All, GOD Almighty Could Have PROCLAIMED THIS, TO Jesus Christ’s Disciples (Peter, John, AND James), WITHOUT The Presence of Moses AND Elijah!  BUT, GOD Almighty MADE A POINT, BY Having Moses AND Elijah PRESENT.

IF Jesus Christ, IS THE LAMPSTAND, AND Moses And Elijah, ARE The Two Olive Trees, TO The Right AND TO The Left, THEN THIS IMAGE (OF Jesus, Moses, AND Elijah) Makes PERFECT Sense!  Especially, Given The Backgrounds OF BOTH, Moses AND Elijah.  Elijah HELD BACK The Rain, AND Moses TURNED The Waters TO BLOOD!

The Being Caught Up Together May Occur IN The Next Millisecond, So, There IS NO Time TO Waste, GET OUT There, Show YOU Care, AND Share The Gospel OF Jesus Christ.
