I’ve always been taught that the two witnesses will be Enoch and Elijah because they never died.
This is not a huge point of contention and I’m not going to go to the mat arguing for it, but I’m just pointing out that there is a fair chunk of Christianity that may disagree.
God’s chosen people were displaced by the Christians, fulfilling the OT Covenant. Jews are rejectors of Christ, their temple was destroyed, their new religion is man-nade and they have no mechanism for salvation whatsoever.
Gog and Magog
Sorry, their conversion is their only hope for salvation.
A stirring read. Thanks for posting.
WoooHoooo! Maranatha.
A favorite Johnny Cash song speaks to the same days.
“When the Man Comes Around”

He ain’t singing about a Zombie TV show.
There’s a man going around taking names
And he decides who to free and who to blame
Everybody won’t be treated all the same
There’ll be a golden ladder reaching down
When the Man comes around
The hairs on your arm will stand up
At the terror in each sip and in each sup
Will you partake of that last offered cup?
Or disappear into the potter’s ground
When the Man comes around
Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers
One hundred million angels singing
Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum
Voices calling, voices crying
Some are born and some are dying
It’s Alpha and Omega’s kingdom come
And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree
The virgins are all trimming their wicks
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree
It’s hard for thee to kick against the pricks
Till Armageddon no shalam, no shalom
Then the father hen will call his chickens home
The wise man will bow down before the throne
And at His feet they’ll cast their golden crowns
When the Man comes around
Whoever is unjust let him be unjust still
Whoever is righteous let him be righteous still
Whoever is filthy let him be filthy still
Listen to the words long written down
When the Man comes around
Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers
One hundred million angels singing
Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum
Voices calling and voices crying
Some are born and some are dying
It’s Alpha and Omega’s kingdom come
And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree
The virgins are all trimming their wicks
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree
It’s hard for thee to kick against the pricks
In measured hundred weight and penney pound
When the Man comes around.
Close (Spoken part)
And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts
And I looked and behold, a pale horse
And his name that sat on him was Death
And Hell followed with him.
Bad days indeed. I pray to see it all from the balcony Up Yonder.
Ignorant fisherman, the unlearned, the least of the least, the least expected, the dispised of this world, the weak of this world God uses.
I might add Ignorant Fisherman ? The last time the Jews and Isreal, oops, I meant ISRAEL he was a babe, a lamb, but when he comes back the 2nd time he IS THE KING ...,. OF all KINGS .
One thing many forget, every king has a usher, the “porter “ opens the gate for the shepherd.
In some translations it says “ the watchman opens the gate for the shepherd “ .
There will be a war and a wedding feast in their own times.
B4L8R—Have to look up the references. :)
Makes a lot of sense but in verse 29 God said
I will not hide My face from them any longer, for I will have poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel,” declares the Lord God.
if he has poured out his spirit on them, how could they not be repented?
Are you saying that the faster humanity finds God, the faster this will be over? Are you saying God will speed up time?
If not, according to this article, most of humanity will have to go through the 7 year tribulation (assuming they survive that long) no matter what they do.
