The two witnesses of Revelation 11

[Guest]

Do you think the two witnesses of Revelation 11 may have something to do with

the rebuilding of the third Temple....

I Believe The Two Witnesses Of Revelation, Chapter Eleven

And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.

And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.

And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. Revelation 11:7-13

As Something To Do With The Restoration

And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes. For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance. Romans 11:26-29

Of Israel To Her God

Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. Isaiah 44:6

To Yeshua (Jesus Of Nazareth)

For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called. Isaiah 54:5

And The Remnant

And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Revelation 12:17

Will Joyfully Carry His Name

Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts. Jeremiah 15:16

That Is What I Think

What A Wonderful Thread

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; Revelations 1:1(a-c) 12:1-3

Be Blessed Beloved Of The KING

The LORD bless thee, and keep thee:

The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:

The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.

And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them. Numbers 6:24-27

I agree Joe. Tey are special agents sent by God, not from this age or from any one alive in this world today, so it should not be taken in the context implied.

It is the Two House Theology, which is basically the opposite of the Replacement Theology.  He has posted this on other sites as well.

First notice the bible starts with:

1. Animal Sacrifice

First Notice That The Bible Starts With Jesus

 

And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: Ephesians 3:9

 

And That A Man's Righteousness

 

By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. Hebrews 11:3

 

Comes By Faith In Jesus

 

For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.

 

Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

 

Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.  Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;

 

Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second. By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. Hebrews 10:4-10

 

So Start At The Start

 

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8

 

Start With Jesus

 

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16

 

And Be Blessed Beloved

 

Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. John 14:1-3

 

Be Very Blessed

 

For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. Isaiah 57:15

Genesis 5:1-2 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.....

Adam (Man) And Eve (Womb Man)

 

This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him; Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. Genesis 5:1-2

 

And Their Children

 

And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth: And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.

 

And Seth lived an hundred and five years, and begat Enos: And Seth lived after he begat Enos eight hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters:

And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years: and he died.

 

And Enos lived ninety years, and begat Cainan: Genesis 5:3-9

 

But Salvation

 

And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:

 

Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

 

Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, 1 Peter 1:17-20

 

Is Of The LORD

 

Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. Revelation 4:11

 

And The Whole Bible Is About Jesus

 

Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. John 5:39

 

And His Mercy

 

But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.

For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.

For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 1 Corinthians 15:20-22

Believe

 

The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. John 3:35-36

 

And Be Blessed Beloved

The pupose of the two witnesses is to joine the lost 10 tribes with judah and benjamin that make up geographical israel today

 

After the 2 witnesses do that they will die and lay in the street for 3 and a half days and then raise to life just as Jesus died and rose again

 

Hebrews tells us that to be the testator of a testament there is need for the testator to die just as Jesus did and rose again because he was the spotless sacrifice and is now King and Preist

 

The 2 witnesses die to be testators of the levitical priesthood and davidic kingship on earth as a reflection of Jesus KING AND PRIEST IN HEAVEN

 

Jermemiah 33 tells us that davidic kingship and levitic preisthood are eternal and those 2 witnesses will be in those postions after they raise from the dead.

 

Jeremiah 33:

⁷ For thus saith the Lord; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;

¹⁸ Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.

¹⁹ And the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah, saying,

²⁰ Thus saith the Lord; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season;

²¹ Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.

 

 

 

These 2 witnesses will do a one time sacrifice and been seen spotless because they are forgiven with the blood of Jesus and this is how they will fulfill a one time sacrifice because they will be seen by God as spotless and they will fill the office of one rerpresting the priest side of Jesus on earth and the other representing the king side of Jesus on earth

The two red, bolded statements are extra-biblical supposition and are not based on what Revelation says.  The only purpose given for the two witnesses is to prophesy for 3 1/2 years.  They are killed by the beast and then raised from the dead by God.  The text does not say that they are sacrificed.  Both statements are 100% conjecture.  And there is no such thing as "lost" tribes of Israel.

 

So who is fulfilling the levitical preisthood and david kingship that is promised to be eternal. Jesus is not going to lower to those positions on earth as he has the melchelzedek preisthood and kingship in heaven

 

Jeremiah 33:

¹⁷ For thus saith the Lord; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;

¹⁸ Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.

²⁰ Thus saith the Lord; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season;

The Propose Of The Two Witness

 

And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. Revelation 11:3-4

 

Is To Turn The Hearts Of Israel To Their Messiah

 

And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.

And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

 

And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. Revelation 11:11-13

 

Yeshua (Jesus)

 

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Malachi 4:5-6
