The Last Days with the Two Witnesses

Paul wrote to Timothy concerning the dangers of the last days in which we live: "But understand this, that in the last days, dangerous times [of great stress and trouble] will come [difficult days that will be hard to bear]." Although darkness covers the earth and a mist of darkness is over the people, the Lord will rise upon His two witnesses, the two olive trees of Revelation 11 whose oil brings light for the Church to see by in these last days. The pressure from the world's system of witchcraft (Babylon) will crush God's two anointed ones, favorably emitting the golden oil to the nations of the world. The testimonies of these two end–time prophets will bear witness to the power of the gospel as they are given the grace to prevail over the things they suffer. They will bear the fruit of the kingdom (from the metaphorical tree of life), and their lives will produce evidence that God's power is with them to destroy the wicked (serpent) seed. They will be living proof of God's authority to trample on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19).
