Featured Rev 11:3-6 and the Two Witnesses

I liked that article. Very good.

 

The usual focus of discussion is on the two witnesses of Revelation 11, but consider the two witnesses of Christ at various times...



Including

• Moses and Elijah on the mount of transfiguration
  
• the two on crosses on either side of the Lord
  
• the two pillars at the door to the tabernacle (Jesus said "I AM the door...")
  

And also what John the water Baptist said: I indeed baptize you with water, but one greater than I comes whose shoes I am unworthy to latch,

• he will baptize with the Holy Ghost (salvation / new covenant)
  
• and with fire (judgement / old covenant).
  

The text in Revelation 11:4 lends itself to the prophetic idioms of "two olive trees" and "two candlesticks" to describe them their mission.
