Chapters 10 and 11 are part of the break between the sixth
and seventh trumpets. The seventh
trumpet ushers in the Bowls of Wrath. In
chapter 10, we discuss the “Little Book” and the Seven Thunders. In chapter 11, we look at the Temple and the
Two Witnesses.
The Seven Thunders spoke, and John was about to write down
what they said, but was forbidden. So,
why make a reference to the fact that the Seven Thunders spoke, but not record
what they said? This is the only sealed
thing in this unsealed book. The point
is that no doctrine can be built upon the “Canon” being complete until the
words of the Seven Thunders are recorded.
The delay of judgment is coming to an end. Time is up for lost sinners to repent.
Take the time to do a study on the tabernacle and the
temple. They are fascinating. If you have an opportunity to tour “Messiah’s
Mansion”, I would recommend that as well.
Chuck’s teaching on this topic was fascinating as well. Check it out.
Now for the burning question: Who are the Two Witnesses? What is the Scriptural basis for your
opinion? Personally, I agree with Dr.
Missler on this point. I believe the Two
Witnesses are Moses and Elijah. The
reason I believe this is that the miracles they perform are reminiscent of
these OT ministers. Chuck’s teaching has
reinforced my belief in this because he mentions the transfiguration where
Moses and Elijah show up and talk with Jesus and Peter offers to build tents
for them. Chuck suggests this may have
been a “staff meeting” about the end times.
Ooooh, I’ve got goose bumps!!!
Homework for next time:
Read Revelation 12. Who is the
“Woman” of chapter 12? How does this
chapter affect our perspectives of today?
