Although the Lord never gave us a clue, as to when He would be coming back for us, He did tell us to be ready to meet Him.....
Matthew 24:44 “Therefore be ye also ready:
for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.”
--------------------------------------------------
And He did make it clear, that the timing of His return would be a big secret.....
Mark 13:32 “But of that day and [that] hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.”
--------------------------------------------------
But, as long as we don’t let it take over our life, I don’t think, that there is anything wrong, with a little speculation. So here it is.....
Revelation 11:3-13
V.3 ¶ And I will give [power] unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
V.4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.
V.5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.
V.6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.
V.7 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.
V.8 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.
V.9 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.
V.10 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.
V.11 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.
V.12 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.
V.13 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.
--------------------------------------------------
(FACT) V.3 “my two witnesses”
These two preachers, will start preaching soon after the rapture:
(And will preach throughout the 1st half of the tribulation period).
--------------------------------------------------
(FACT) V.3 “a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days”
They will preach for 1,260 days42 months = Three and 1/2 years)
--------------------
Then in V.7 “the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.”
The anti-christ, will kill them, and leave their dead bodies, lying in the street.
--------------------------------------------------
(FACT) V.10 “And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another”
Then, every Christ rejecting sinner on earth, will celebrate their death, and make merry and send gifts to one another.
--------------------------------------------------
(SPECULATION) What does this sound like to you. (A little like Christmas, right!)
--------------
It seems like every year, that Christmas gets more and more secular; Imagine, how bad it will be, three and a half years, after every Christian is removed from the earth.
--------------------------------------------------
Note: If indeed, these two preachers will be killed around December 25, than that means, that the Rapture will have occurred, three and a half years earlier.
(That’s around June 25)
Oh by the way, today is June 8, 2008, and if we aren’t raptured within the next 17 days or so, then we can put this post away, for another year.
But we must always be expecting the Lord to return for us at any minute, so that we will be Ready.
Matthew 24:42
"Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come."
Matthew 24:44 “Therefore be ye also ready:
for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.”
--------------------------------------------------
And He did make it clear, that the timing of His return would be a big secret.....
Mark 13:32 “But of that day and [that] hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.”
