If not, you will belong to the "seed of the woman who has the testimony of Jesus Christ", but which is defeated, fleeing and in a wilderness (Rev.12:17, 13:7). Elijah is most probably one of them, but Moses is not. He is part of the "children of the resurrection" and cannot die again (Lk.20:35-36, Heb.9:27). The other is most probably Enoch.

They arrive in Israel with the man of sins armed forces 42 months before the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heb 11:5 By faith Enoch was taken up so that he did not see death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.” For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hartono said: Arent they supposed to come in the end Times Israel like the old time desert ? FYI @R. Hartono Rev 11:7 When the two witnesses have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will wage war with them, and will overpower and kill them. UII (Useful Internet Info) In the Bible, the term “Abyss” originates from the Greek word “abyssos”, which signifies “exceedingly deep” or “unfathomable, boundless”. Its usage in the Christian Greek Scriptures refers to a place or condition of confinement. While it encompasses the grave, it is not limited to it 12. Here are some key aspects of the Abyss as mentioned in the Bible: Old Testament Usage: In the Old Testament, “abyssos” consistently describes the watery depths of the earth, including oceans and springs, distinct from the land. It does not carry the idea of the realm of the dead or the afterlife 1. Genesis 1:2 refers to the total inchoate earth as “the deep”, over which the Spirit of God hovered. During the intertestamental period, the meaning of “abyssos” expanded to include the concept of death and the realm of demonic spirits 1. New Testament Usage: In the New Testament, “abyssos” takes on two primary meanings: “The realm of the dead”: Romans 10:7 contrasts “ascent into heaven” with “descent into the abyss”. However, because Christ was there, the abyss should not be seen as an evil or demonic realm. “Dwelling place of demons”: Luke 8:31 and Revelation describe the abyss as the abode of demons and the beast. It serves as a place of confinement unto judgment under God’s control 1. In John’s vision, the fifth trumpet opens the shaft leading to the abyss, releasing a demonic hoard of locusts. Their ruler is “the angel of the abyss”, whose name is Destruction (Heb. Abaddon; Gk. Appolyon) 1. Satan is also chained in the abyss for a thousand years until he is thrown into the lake of fire 1. In summary, the Abyss represents both a mysterious depth and a place of spiritual significance in biblical contexts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything on the earth will perish. # Isaiah 57: 20But the wicked are like the storm-tossed sea, for it cannot be still, and its waves churn up mire and muck. 21“There is no peace,” says my God, “for the wicked.” # Revelation 17: 15Then the angel said to me, “The waters you saw, where the harlot was seated, are peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues.
