I know God said he was dead and He buried him although we know he was in perfect health. But someone mentioned Moses along with Elijah awhile back and I forgot what the guy said about Moses! He gave some interesting thoughts about it. Just thought you may have heard anything.

The Transfiguration where Moses and Elijah appeared to Jesus Christ is why the question of Moses comes up. It’s very interesting and I would love to hear a conversation about this. I don’t know, the Bible clearly says he died. And that Enoch and Elijah have not. I wonder about the 2 witnesses in Revelation. It would just seem that Moses would be one of them. It’s a great topic of information to me, too. Perhaps someone who is a more knowledgeable than me can give us some info on it!

I know that many people say Moses and Elijah, but I agree with the thought that it’s Enoch and Elijah.

For two reasons...

One is because neither one of them died as man is appointed to do.

The other is that if you do a search for Enoch, you find he’s mentioned in Jude that he prophesied about the end times, the second coming.

Since Elijah was the forerunner of Jesus, that’s a no brainer. But since Enoch didn’t die and he also foretold about the second coming, that’s why I think it’s those two.

Moses came to deliver God’s people from Egypt and he’s connected with the giving of the Law, not the second coming of Christ.

Jude 1:14 It was also about these that Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of his holy ones, 15 to execute judgment on all and to convict all the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness that they have committed in such an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things that ungodly sinners have spoken against him.” 16These are grumblers, malcontents, following their own sinful desires; they are loud-mouthed boasters, showing favoritism to gain advantage.

There is a theory that the two witnesses will be Moses and Elijah. Maybe that's what you heard. :-)
