SUBJECT: Two Witnesses
QUESTION: How soon to the Return of Christ and the First
Resurrection is the resurrection of the two witnesses as
shown in Revelation 11?
ANSWER:
Here is an excerpt from the booklet, "Can
You Understand Bible Prophecy?" which is posted at the
site:
The Tribulation, Heavenly Signs
(Revelation 6-7), and Day of the Lord all fall within the
same three-and-one-half year period! Notice that the
abomination of desolation is set up, and continues "until
the consummation," or three and one-half years! The two
witnesses prophecy for three and one-half years, and are
killed only days prior to Christ’s return! The sanctuary is
"trodden down" for three and one-half years, and then
"cleansed" by Christ’s return!

Here is an excerpt from the
booklet, "Coming
Soon--An Invasion from Space", posted at the web site:
"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" [this is
a special resurrection just prior to the arrival of Christ.
They ascend up into the clouds, where they can be SEEN, not
to the "third heaven" of God's throne].
"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
[the earthquake is no
doubt the same one which will occur just before Christ's
return, mentioned in Zechariah 14].

Here is an excerpt from the
booklet, "Who,
What is the "Beast" of Revelation", which is posted at
the site:
God shows that the beast power
will hold sway for three and one-half years. The great
tribulation and the day of the Lord occupy three and
one-half years! The two witnesses prophesy for a period of
three and one-half years, and it is obvious from the latter
verses of Revelation 11 that the Second Coming of Christ
follows very swiftly after the martyrdom of the
two witnesses!
