Vienne, I don't see myself as one of the two witnesses. It's impossible, because I am doing my work alone. The two witnesses will be a two persons acting together like Moses and Aaron. And I want to stay alive until Jesus arrives and takes the remaining in life anointed to heaven. But the two witnesses are destined to be killed after they have witnesses for 1260 days. But after 3 and half days they will be resurrected and ascend to heaven. That's of course good for them. We the rest of the anointed will have to endure a while longer on earth. But I would like to stay on earth to be able to help people spiritually until Jesus arrives.

What can we learn here from Jesus’ words about what is Judgment Day?
By what will people be judged on Judgment Day?
According to Jesus, are people freed from commited sins when they die?
Matthew 12:35 The good man out of his good treasure sends out good things, whereas the wicked man out of his wicked treasure sends out wicked things. 36 I tell you that men will render an account on Judgment Day for every unprofitable saying that they speak; 37 for by your words you will be declared righteous, and by your words you will be condemned.”
John 5:28 Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice 29 and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment.

The coming of the Two Witnesses
Revelation 11:3 I will cause my two witnesses to prophesy for 1,260 days dressed in sackcloth.”
7 When they have finished their witnessing, the wild beast that ascends out of the abyss will wage war with them and conquer them and kill them. 8 And their corpses will be on the main street of the great city that is in a spiritual sense called Sodʹom and Egypt, where their Lord was also executed on the stake
At the same time as the seven headed beast begins to have authority over the earth, two God’s witnesses will be witnessing in opposition to the world and the seven headed beast of Revelation 13. They will be invincible for 1260 days. But after that the beast in Revelation 18 will kill them.
They will be like prophets in Bible times, like Moses and Aaron or like Elijah and Elisha. Those prophets in ancient times were active in a small geographic scope, but the two coming prophets will prophesy to the whole world and they will as the Revelation tells be able to strike the earth with plagues, just as Moses and Aaron could do in Egypt.

Hello brothers, a question for you all: What prevents you from understanding things in the Bible? Why not ask that in a prayer?
Matthew 13:13 That is why I speak to them by the use of illustrations; for looking, they look in vain, and hearing, they hear in vain, nor do they get the sense of it. 14 And the prophecy of Isaiah is being fulfilled in their case. It says: ‘You will indeed hear but by no means get the sense of it, and you will indeed look but by no means see. 15 For the heart of this people has grown unreceptive, and with their ears they have heard without response, and they have shut their eyes, so that they might never see with their eyes and hear with their ears and get the sense of it with their hearts and turn back and I heal them.’ 16 “However, happy are your eyes because they see and your ears because they hear.

After we have cut bonds with the Watchtower organization, is there a danger that our spirituality could be in danger?
Matthew 12:43 “When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through waterless places in search of a resting-place and finds none. 44 Then it says, ‘I will go back to my house from which I moved,’ and on arriving, it finds the house unoccupied but swept clean and adorned. 45 Then it goes and takes along with it seven different spirits more wicked than itself, and after getting inside, they dwell there; and the final circumstances of that man become worse than the first. That is how it will be also with this wicked generation.
Matthew 24:9 “Then people will hand you over to tribulation and will kill you, and you will be hated by all the nations on account of my name. 10 Then, too, many will be stumbled and will betray one another and will hate one another.

If you let the word of God explain what Babylon the Great is, what do you find?
Revelation 17:18 And the woman whom you saw means the great city that has a kingdom over the kings of the earth.
Please, look carefully at what the scriptures say, after that you can start to search for a great city that fulfills this criteria and the rest of the characteristics mentioned in Revelation 17 and 18.
This city is the greatest political power, because it has "a kingdom over the kings of the earth". Democracy and elections don't matter. Have you ever wondered why politicians promise what people want but are unable to deliver once elected? It's because the great city, Babylon the Great has its own goals and agenda.
Revelation 18 repeats the fact that it is a great influential city. World wide trade and commerce is very much dependent on that city. That involves stock and commodity trade and trade of goods of every sort.
This does in no way apply to thousands of different religions.
And if we think seriously, what is driving wars? Are they not primarily because of greed? Are they not primarily about money? Why did the USA not want Europe to buy Russian gas or oil? What is the war in Ukraine really about? Religion? No, both Ukraine and Russia are Orthodox Christian and both were before the war organized under the Russian Orthodox Church. And the war between capitalism and communism? It had nothing to do with religion. Actually most of the wars are not religious.
Revelation 18:18 and cried out as they looked at the smoke from her burning and said: ‘What city is like the great city?’ 19 They threw dust on their heads and cried out, weeping and mourning, and said: ‘Too bad, too bad, the great city, in which all those who had ships at sea became rich from her wealth, because in one hour she has been devastated!’
Religions are not making ship owners rich. But instead it should be one of the great commercial cities in the world.

What is this prophecy referring to?
Revelation 13:3 I saw that one of its heads seemed to have been fatally wounded, but its mortal wound had been healed, and all the earth followed the wild beast with admiration.
4 And they worshipped the dragon because it gave the authority to the wild beast, and they worshipped the wild beast with the words: “Who is like the wild beast, and who can do battle with it?”
Because the beast has 7 heads and 10 horns, it can not represent one country alone, but is instead a political power consisting of several countries.
So, one of its heads is one of the countries within that global power.
It is also a global power that gets the power in the end time from the dragon as stated in verse 4.
Someones had the power to force all the nations in the world to respond to the covid virus in a very similar way.
I think we saw the first expression of the power of that beast in the Covid mandates around the world.
But which country could be the head that got struck, but is healing?
I wonder if it is Ukraine? Could it be that Russia is the country that has tried to fight against the seven headed beast? But because Ukraine has steadily got international help, Russia has been unable to conquer Ukraine. In the beginning their goal was to take out the Ukrainian government.

What can we learn from the Hebrew scriptures?
Romans 15:4 For all the things that were written beforehand were written for our instruction,..
Could the Hebrew scriptures help us to understand Revelation 12:6 : "And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God and where they would feed her for 1,260 days."
Could the account about Israel's exodus from Egypt into the wilderness teach us something about Revelation 12:6?

First round and later the second round
2 Peter 3:6 and that by those means the world of that time suffered destruction when it was flooded with water. 7 But by the same word the heavens and the earth that now exist are reserved for fire and are being kept until the day of judgment and of destruction of the ungodly people.
Babylon and Babylon the Great
Isaiah 21:9 Look at what is coming: Men in a war chariot with a team of horses!” Then he spoke up and said: “She has fallen! Babylon has fallen! All the graven images of her gods he has shattered to the ground!”
Revelation 18:2 And he cried out with a strong voice, saying: “She has fallen! Babylon the Great has fallen, and she has become a dwelling place of demons and a place where every unclean spirit and every unclean and hated bird lurks!
Jerusalem was destroyed once and then later a second time.
The old covenant and the new covenant.
Moses and a greater prophet like him, Jesus Christ
Acts 3:22 In fact, Moses said: ‘Jehovah your God will raise up for you from among your brothers a prophet like me. You must listen to whatever he tells you.
We can therefore be confident about the fulfillment of prophecies that are prefigured in God's word.

About whom is the prophecy and does it apply to our time?
Malachi 2:4 Then you will know that I have given this commandment to you so that my covenant with Leʹvi may continue,” says Jehovah of armies. 5 “My covenant with him was one of life and of peace, which I gave to him, along with fear. He feared me, yes, he stood in awe of my name. 6 The law of truth was in his mouth, and no unrighteousness was found on his lips. He walked with me in peace and in uprightness, and he turned many back from error. 7 For the lips of a priest should safeguard knowledge, and people should seek the law from his mouth, because he is the messenger of Jehovah of armies.
Malachi 3:1…And suddenly the true Lord, whom you are seeking, will come to his temple; and the messenger of the covenant will come, in whom you take delight. Look! He will certainly come,” says Jehovah of armies. 2 “But who will endure the day of his coming, and who will be able to stand when he appears? For he will be like the fire of a refiner and like the lye of laundrymen. 3 And he will sit as a refiner and cleanser of silver and will cleanse the sons of Leʹvi; and he will clarify them like gold and like silver, and they will certainly become to Jehovah people presenting a gift offering in righteousness.
