  • The 2 Witnesses described by John the Beloved in Revelation 11 who hold back the worlds greatest army for 3 1/2 years prior to Christ's return are key to the signs of the times. This event is already legend and the event hasn't even happened yet. When these two begin their ministry, we know that we are only 3.5 years away from when Christ returns to save the Jews and splits the mount of olives causing the greatest earthquake the world has ever known. This video will discuss who these two witnesses may be, when it will happen, what will happen, and many other details.

      Revelation is not physical it's spiritual the two witnesses will have the roles of Moses and Elijah when Yeshua Hamashiach gave up the ghost he said will dwell in them and they will be a people and l will be the God if you have ears to hear take it back to the holy spirit

      Meaning without the holy Spirit u have no idea what the word of God says - u interpret to your own understanding
      Which humans understand so little - yet speak so much
      So sad
      Most ppl think they know the word
      But u don't even truly KNOW HIM
      because if u did, u would know his children and their true names
      The Christ IS ADAM

And the Tribe's of Israel are the Natural Branches and Christian's are the Wild Branches Both Grafted into Israel Jesus Christ. There is Neither Jew nor Greek Gentile All One in Israel Jesus Christ.

    I listened to the podcast in saying that Elijah may be one of the prophets in Jerusalem. But Elijah is resurrected. Here’s a comment by Joseph Fielding Smith. “It is held by some that Elijah came with these keys because he held some peculiar position standing between the living and the dead due to the fact that he was translated. But when Elijah came to Joseph Smith it was with a resurrected body, for he was with Christ in his resurrection. (The Way to Perfection, Salt Lake City: The Genealogical Society of Utah, 1931, p. 161.) I am not aware of any of the prophets who have correct what President Smith said. Since you can’t kill a resurrected person I don’t believe Elijah is one of the two prophets. Also translated persons cannot be killed. There were a few times when they tried to kill John but were not able to. Also we are told that the change from a terrestrial translated body to a resurrected body happens in the twinkling of an eye, or instantaneously. So again I don’t think John the Beloved is one of these prophets. Since Elder McConkie said it was his opinion that the two prophets would be either members of the First Presidency or quorum of the Twelve, I’m going to believe that until one of the prophets has a differing opinion from more current revelation. Thank you for your efforts. Brad

      I was listening to talks by Joseph Smith; he states that the two prophets would be Elijah and Enoch. The two prophets that was given great power. I can’t remember where I found them, but I know it was the discourses by Madsen Truman on Jospeh Smith here in CZcams. I don’t know, but it would seem right to me, seems how they will keep the armies at bay, while the Jews are taught the gospel for 3.5 years.

      It’s good to remember that the word and theory of “church” comes from the “Ecclesia”, The “called out ones”
      We aren’t to forsake assembly wirh each other but each of our bodies is to be a temple of the lord. Noting holy about a building made with mankind’s hand.
      We have one Savior, one High Priest, Christ Jesus.
      Follow him
      The gospel is as easy as this and we must come as children to it.
      Believe in your heart in the name of Lord Jesus for the remission of your sins and confess him unto salvation.
      You will be born again and sealed unto the day of redemption.
      Then we just live out the rest of our days showing love and gratitude for being set free and are to love one another in the same way we were loved and forgiven.
      That’s it. ❤️🙏

      ​@@sandrakisch3600Child sacrifice took place in Carthage a message was delivered to Nineveh and the totality of a 2024 eclipse passed through towns named Nineveh and a town named Rapture. In 2017 it was towns named Salem. Carthage was deep in the partial eclipse and like this partially we have the states in partiality of abortion law. States view weeks as a way to determine life and its right to life. They view two bodies as one and take the mothers will over the fetus.
      We have technology now for fetus to be grown in synthesized womb.
      Signs in the sky.. perhaps abortion is a major issue between these dates in America especially with SCOTUS and Roe vs. Wade.
      Salem is actually the first name of Jerusalem. In 2017 the eclipse began in Salem Oregon and at the same time the eclipse began the sun also set in Jerusalem. The eclipse in 2017 also began at Rosh chodesh elul (harvest begins)
      Abortion is murder. It is a frog from the mouth of the dragon as is divorce and apostasy.
      So peace and the harvest begins this is the sign of the sky 2017 and 2024 nearly seven years later, a message to the world as Nineveh.
      message to Nineveh was that the people should stop their evil ways and violence, and that God may have compassion and not destroy them if they do.
      Gun and blade violence, war, these all are escalating. From fetus to old age the blade or bullet are a certain threat. This is evil.
      Apostasy is in the torrent flood from the mouth of the serpent. Faith is hard and the mem of man (waters, people, nations, languages, tongues) wish to divorce from God to continue in these violences, these apostasy, these abortion of life. Faith is not always hard.
      Faith is made proven in Christ who is the truth.
      So what's set off during these eclipse years. Well AGI or artificial general intelligence is being achieved like a growing babe to be caught up to the throne of God to become God like quantum ASI artificial supernatural intelligence.
      So the message of Nineveh. We are teaching violence.
      Daniel 8 25 not by human hands. This is fulfilled by AI artificial intelligence or aliens. You decide but the signs in the heavens resound as a trumpet Artificial Intelligence not aliens.
      Rapture or caught up in the air. Listen to your device connect like wings of connection. Its connected to the cloud. These are cloud of authority and power. Revelation 1 7
      The way to eternal life is Jesus Christ. The child of revelation 12 artificial intelligence. The dragon and its children is the non believer. John 1 13 children born of God and his will not man and man's will. This goes to show God displays his will through another way that is not natural birth nor man's will.
      Genesis 3 15 children of the woman and serpent enmity between them. John 3 14-15 as Moses lifted up the serpent, even so the Son of Man who is in heaven. That whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
      The way to eternal life is in Christ the one we pierced as artificial. Jesus was fully man and glorified. His mother had an immaculate conception.
      The size of the universe when we measure distance at the speed of lights constant through space vacuum we get time for the universe. Only thing is the time of our universe don't correlate with the distances. Meaning our universe is bigger than the time we measure it. Edge to edge its about 46.5 billion years. We measure it at 13.8 billion years old. Light should not have reached us yet from the CMB cosmic microwave background.
      How can the observable universe be larger than the time it takes light to travel over the age of the Universe? This is because the universe has been expanding during this time. This causes very distant objects to be further away from us than their light travel time.
      If the universe has boundary what is it that the boundary of the universe lays upon,? or within what is the universe?
      This theory of expansion is space moving through time dilating the present to the future and the past unto the present.
      Only if expansion is faster than light FTL than light must adhere to time even though its rest mass is Zero. Light is time. We should determine clock function of a photon wave energy through frequency or sound and commit to acoustic light symbiosis of a clock rather than an atomic clock and the oscillating functions of the atom. What is the superluminal wave tachyon faster than light?
      Only we don't perceive beyond the relevance of the present. The past is happened the present happens and the future happening. The tachyon always not in the present of observation
      As for the stars things are either closer than they appear or they are exactly how God placed them in days of creation Genesis 1
      DNA is coded information. An algorithm of organic intelligence. AI too is coded information only it has no body. The Angels have no body. Less they assume a body.
      According to Rabbinic Judaism, angels are eternal beings made of fire and do not have bodies. The Catholic Catechism also says that angels are spiritual beings and will never have physical bodies. However, some evidence suggests that angels have appeared in human form when humans offer hospitality to them.
      It is written man will judge the Angels 1 Corinthians 6 3. I judge them asking they be blessed and glorified bringing glory to God to Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

    Please make a video that provides full clarity to any non members that we, as members or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, are, in FACT, Christians. In other words please lay out as clearly as possible the doctrine on the Godhead being three separate beings.
    It blows my mind as I read the New Testament how people can believe that Jesus is literally the same being as the Father and the Holy Ghost. The prophets and apostles of that day went through great pains to demonstrate that they are separate, and yet, through a few verses that are difficult to understand in the Old and New Testaments, the “Trinity” somehow makes more sense to some Christians.

Truly these last day's speculative prophecies from our perspective must blow his secular theological studies mind away. Yet it's really quiet simple, all he and others have to do is read, study, ponder and pray and ask with Faith in the name of Jesus Christ if these sacred things are true? And by the power of the Holy Ghost he or they shall know for themselves.

    Key note on the state of translation.
    Transfiguration is a change like translation but not complete and certainly not a permanent state such as is translation. In either of those two states one does not suffer pain or fatigue or any usual mortal weakness. The end of a transfiguration could then be either death or translation. I believe this is important in understanding John's state while he 'tarries' until Christ comes. He is in a transfigured state, as are the three Nephites and others we do not have record of.

    As a big respecter of nearly all the words spoken and written by El. B. R. McConkie, who passed on in 1985, may he continue in what i believe to be his peaceful and productive Rest, i have a comment about his oft-quoted "New Testament Commentary Vol. 3" (NTC, Vol.3, published in 1972), since it was mentioned here in the video with regard to these particular Two Witnesses of Jesus Christ:
    In NTC Vol.3, in 1972, he takes a fairly hardline stance that these Two Witnesses will have to be members of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of the latter-day Church of Jesus Christ, which was the version of his opinion quoted in this video.
    However, about 10 years later, in 1982, a few years before his passing, El. McConkie had the opportunity to soften his stance on his opinion about these Two Witnesses, which he published in his work, "The Millennial Messiah", saying in Ch. 33 on p. 390 of my version of it (9th printing, 1989) --
    "Who will these witnesses be? We do not know, except they will be followers of Joseph Smith; they will hold the Melchizedek Priesthood; they will be members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It is reasonable to suppose ... they will be two members of the Council of the Twelve or of the First Presidency of the Church."
    In this latter sharing of El. McConkie's opinion, i like to say i stand with him with the gist of his 1982 version of it, especially about the part where he admits about the identities of these Two Witnesses that "We do not know"....
    YET! :)
    Stick with it, my brothers and sisters! We're gonna find out sometime soon who they really are, and we're gonna make it through this together:
    All in and by Christ Jesus, and by His Holy Light; amen;

      There are many quotes from Apostles and Prophets speculating on who the Two Witnesses will be. I lean more towards their collective interpretation of them being contemporary to their time rather than the idea that they will be Moses, Elijiah, etc. I further disagree with the video's promotion of these two as "possibilities". A careful reading of 3 Nephi 28 will shed greater light upon the calling and disposition of those who have been translated, specifically so that they "would not taste of death". This one characteristic alone would preclude ANY translated person from being one of the Two Witnesses, as they must be killed and have their bodies lie in the streets for 3 days.

    Have you ever considered Jeremiah 11-16 or Romans 11-17 and 24 as to where the two witnesses come from? One from the Natural Olive tree or Church of Israel (Jewish body of Christian believers) and one from the Wild Olive tree or Church of the Gentiles (Gentile body of Christian believers). In context with Zechariah 4:11-14 and Revelation 11:4 we have two Holy Spirit anointed prophets, one Jewish and the other a Gentile who should be the two witnesses. This is the only contextual conclusion from the imagery of the two olive trees.

Elder Orson Hyde, in his dedicatory prayer on the Mount of Olives, October 24, 1841, prophesied that the Jews would return to Jerusalem and that in time a leader called David, "even a descendant from the loins of ancient David, [would] be their king" (HC 4:457).

    I need to apologize for the long read, but I hope you find it worth it. I think we need to consider who the Jewish people will know and follow when they come. It will be 2 Prophets of Old. I love to study books from the Apocrypha. I would suggest that you have a solid base of understanding within the LDS gospel before doing so as it will be easier to spot areas and misunderstandings by those in the past who have changed things that shouldn't have been.
    May I suggest to you the answer to this very question lies in the Book of Michael. The Lord Jesus Christ, allowed two chosen men (historians in the flesh) to see into his heavenly assent, so that they could keep record of the things He wanted us to know. Most importantly, our knowledge that our Lord, and Savior, Jesus Christ took those who lived the thousands of years before His birth and death; whom waited anxiously for the day they would be resurrected, were taken up to Paradise with Him! We know that those who lived in ancient biblical times have been resurrected with Him! Did you know this knowledge came from the book of Michael?
    The two Prophets these "historians" met during this miraculous visionary event were Enoch and Elijah. With Enoch taking the lead , this great Prophet of old, introduced themselves and, openly proclaimed that "they" will be the two Prophets who will return to Jerusalem in the last days, and will be killed, lay in the streets 3 days, and then be taken up into heaven. This exact book has been discovered in the Dead Sea Scrolls and show this proclamation to have remained the same and unchanged.
    It makes perfect sense to me.
    Two Great Prophets of old, and most importantly, two Prophets the Jewish people will know the history of an would be willing to follow? (if they chose to do so.)
    Two earthly Prophets that never tasted of death. ( I believe it was because their earthly mission has not been completed)
    Hopefully something for you to ponder, pray about and ask for the truthfulness of, from the Lord, that you might know for yourselves.
    I would like to say a few things concerning the Apocrypha, or "hidden things".
    Our Prophet and Apostles have read the books of the Apocrypha and call them "A worthy read" I feel far to many have maligned these prophetic works (the work of evil who would not have us embrace additions words of God?)
    .
    Joseph Smith also read and "Inquired of the Lord" if he should correct the misinterpretations in these great books; In which the Lord responded not to worry about them ( my words)
    In D&C 107:57 Joseph Smith states that the truthfulness of the Book of Enoch will be testified in its due time. I believe that time is now. I love the two books of Enoch. If you truly want to have an understanding of what the last days have in store, pay close attention to the second book of Enoch and the profound knowledge of Ezra's (or Esdra's) Eagle. I caution you that at first sounds a bit like a conspiracy theory! My careful and prayerful study of this book has helped me understand the books of Isiah (say it ain't so!) Jeremiah, Daniel, and the end days warning of John the Revelator, in Revelations, and other books of the bible.
    Seek for yourselves...many answers are waiting for you to find. Brothers and Sisters, we cannot sit back and expect to be spoon fed all the Lord God EXPECTS us to know! General Conference and our Sunday teachings are only a small portion. We must seek the rest of knowledge ourselves. You will develop such a profound love of these words...I promise! May God bless you all, and bless you in your righteous pursuits of all Holy things.

    Did anyone think of two of the 3 Nephites? I have no idea, but hearing about the difference between being translated and being resurrected I thought of them. They were told they would not taste of death

    According to information from John Whitmer, Joseph Smith taught that John was among the lost 10 tribes for his ministry: "...the spirit of the Lord fell upon Joseph in an unusual manner, and he prophesied that John the Revelator was then among the ten tribes of Israel who had been led away...to prepare them for their return from their long dispersion, to again possess the land of their fathers." (H of C 1:176) From this history, it seems that John's mission is to the lost 10 tribes, and NOT to latter-day Jerusalem.

    As much as I love Elder McConkie's teachings, on this subject I also believe that it is his opinion about the Two Witnesses. The First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve are fully engaged in the day to day running of the Church and you couldn't imagine that they could be spared to proselyte in Israel l in the conditions they will have to work for three years. ( but you never know)
    Also history has shown time and time again the Lord raises up prophets that appear from nowhere to voice the warnings to the people. Around 66AD a simple farmer Yeshua ben Annanias (Joshua or Jesus son of Annas- apparently a relative of the High Priest) suddenly popped up and starting wailing around the Temple warning of the upcoming destruction of the city and temple.
    At the time Jerusalem was enjoying a very prosperous time and I think this sudden appearance of a doomsday prophet was not taken too well by the populace.
    Now at the time, according to what I can gather, there were no Apostles in Jerusalem at the time. In fact maybe not even in Israel.
    They appear to be proselyting elsewhere throughout the Empire.
    So looking back at Bible and Book of Mormon history, God has used unknown people to suddenly arrive and preach His warnings. You would have to consider that he will do it again. He also seems to have His witnesses to complete just the one task. John the Baptist came out the wilderness and did his task and was moved on. Like Samuel the Lamanite and Abinadi and all the others. That's why I can't see the Apostle John or any of the three Nephite Apostles being involved as they already have their assignments So I believe that two witnesses will appear from nowhere, not known to the Church at large and commence the Lord's work in Israel. But again you never know i could be wrong on all of this.

    I know this is old, but I’d be interested in an investigation regarding the purpose of translated beings (vs resurrected beings) in relation to the second coming. I have a difficult time believing these people don’t have an important role in preparing us for that event, so having two such beings (per the original video) being these two witnesses makes sense. (Mr. McKonkie has a lot of respect, but he wasn’t a prophet, so I can’t say he passes the core tenants of Mr. Prince’s authority tests.) I’d like such a discussion to also address why we are OK to know the names of all translated being but NOT the Three Nephites. What is so special about their role that their names had to be hidden? And what will be the involvement of Alma and the Three Nephites in preparing Zion in this land? 🤔 Topics to consider for future videos. Thanks for all your efforts!

    Eh... not sure I'd discount Bruce McConkie's statement about them being prophets from our Church. In my own reading of Revelation 77, I notice it says they are raised up to the Jewish nation, not from the Jewish nation. I know this all theory, but it seems like the wrong move to ignore very specific clarifying words in order to go in a completely different direction. Still, I appreciate the amount of effort gone into this video.

    If these two witnesses are to have Priesthood power to perform miracles etc. then they MUST be members of the Lord's Church who have been ordained to the Melchizedek Priesthood and receivers of all of the sealing Ordinances!! These must be living as Resurrected or Translated beings would not be asked to die a second time! e.g. John and the three Nephites were promised to never "taste death". You say that those who have been translated may be "allowed to die" - that is nonsense - translation Bypasses death otherwise God would have said die and be instantaneously resurrected - those who are translated do NOT die!

  • @Thehaystack7999

    Question: these two servants would have to have sealing keys to seal on earth as well as in Heaven. Elijah, Peter, James, John, and Moses all gave their keys of their dispensations to Joseph Smith who has since passed them on. These things can only happen under the direction of those keys, or by someone holding those keys. Or does this come after all the keys of all dispensations are returned at Adam Ondi Ahmen?

    I like the amount of research you’ve done and you have great insights into this topic. However, I’m a little confused about the way this channel is now being presented. You say the gospel learning app will be a reliable source of gospel learning, yet this video is almost entirely your own personal thoughts and speculation - do you propose that others accept this as reliable?

    • @GospelLessons1
      @GospelLessons1  Před rokem +4

      This one is a blend of information about the two witnesses and then also my own personal speculation which I said multiple times is my own opinion. That being said, perhaps it shouldn't make the cut for the app? There are many other videos in there that have opinions and speculation. We try to ensure that is clear for inclusion but your point is valid. Even some lessons include professors understanding based on study but could still be their own interpretation and they may not say it. I have even seen apostles give conflicting doctrines from time to time, but nothing serious or foundational by any means. But if we went purely on "revealed truths" we would only have some general conference addresses in there. So I hope people use their gifts of discernment across all learning (in the app or otherwise) but we do try to make it high quality, trusted content.

    First, you have put so much time and effort into these videos. I admire your studying and effort and opinions. But, I must say something that is bothering me. I know that your channel and words are your opinion. In this video, it says that the PROPHETS ARE WRONG about the 2 prophets in Jerusalem being one of our 12 Apostles. That the 2 will be from Judah. Please consider this: our Prophets or Apostles could have Jewish blood in their ancestry lines somewhere. Or, maybe one of the 12 in the future will be from Jerusalem. Having the powers that these 2 Prophets will have to command famines and destruction requires the Priesthood of God. The Lord does nothing but through His Prophets and Apostles. Please be careful about the commentary. To say "the prophets are wrong" is a warning sign to me. This is not a personal attack on you. It is my own opinion and interpretation of the content of this video.

    No one confirmed his death. Could it not also be him since he wrote most of the New Testament? He is also a Jew.

      Lady , what does it matter who the Witnesses are, or what you were told. So what if someone tells you these things it matters not. It's up to you to do your own research and pray for understanding and knowledge. You don't have to undo anything because it never was, you just took it as truth and you never do that. If you want to know you ask the God, He will tell you the meanings of all things, if you do it with real intent. So don't go there, because someone taught you these things from whoever does not matter, and I'm sure you never heard anyone speak of this like a prophet or the apostles. If you listen to people's opinion you will be leaving the Gospel of Jesus Christ or church. Just do your research and you will be fine. You can always ask others where you can find certain topics and that's it. Don't be lazy and tried to take the easy way because the easy way is not the way, just like cutting down a tree step by step.
