Prophecy verses to note in your Bible/NT.

The two witnesses are people that get made war against and lie dead in Jerusalem.
They are not the Bible all over the world, and their testimony is only for 3.5 years.
They need that much time to -finish their testimony. Hebrews 11 shows that Enoch had a testimony when he was translated. When the two rise - they will stand on their feet.
They rise from the dead at the time of an earthquake-which happens after the 7th trumpet sounds, and the announcement is made in heaven that it is time to judge the dead. It will be when all of the just rise and are to be rewarded. Paul told how God/ Jesus Christ will judge the quick and the dead - at His appearing- and a crown is laid up for Him that he will get then.

After the two witnesses are slain, the wicked will begin to celebrate and send gifts. But in a matter of days the day of the Lord will start in the 6th seal, so their party time will be abruptly ended. Jesus Christ will be seen in heaven =as the sign of the Son of man in heaven, and He will have brought the sleeping saints from heaven with Him.


The warning in Rev. 22 is not for the entire book of Revelation. It is about the book that won't have sealed sayings in it. It is referring to the little open book that John ate in Rev. 10. The one that has plagues in it that can be added to a person, and has the holy city in it that people can lose their part in entering it.

the trumpets are written in hidden form in the mystery of God section
the full vials plagues - came to John later, as they were found in the little open book that he ate=so he could prophesy again
The little open book sayings are why we have chapters 16-22.

Have to disagree

22:10-17 In these verses Jesus summarizes the last few events of the prophecies in the book of Revelation:

- The close of probation, “He that is unjust…” (vs. 11; see notes on Revelation 15:5-8);
- The Second Coming, “And, behold, I come quickly” (vs. 12);
- The reward of the righteous, “have right to the tree of life…” (vss. 12, 14);
- And the punishment of the wicked, “For without are…” (vss. 12, 15).

Christ sends this message, His greatest and final invitation, far and wide, by all available means, to all who will listen, “Come,” and “take the water of life freely.” This is the most profound invitation ever given to mankind! Your response will be the greatest decision that you will ever make!

Today, while the door of mercy is wide open “The Spirit of the Bride says, ‘Come.’” Will you come? Will your name be written in the Lamb’s Book of Life? It can be! He invites you to come to Him today.

22:18-19 A dire warning is given to anyone who adds to the prophecies in this book or takes away anything from them.

The heavens(First and second parts) and the earth are destroyed by fire at Christ's coming and nothing of them is left. Men will cry for the rocks to fall on them in that day.

Rev 22:19

And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

out of the holy city -written in this book
The New Jerusalem is not written about in the mystery of God section of Revelation.
It came from the writings in the little book that John ate.

Rev
10:2-4 This mighty angel is standing on both the “sea” and the “earth,” signifying that the message he brings is of worldwide significance. This message is contained in “a little book open.” The fact that this little book is “opened” shows that it was once closed. The book of Daniel was by divine direction closed up and sealed till the time of the end, when the wise were to understand. Daniel 12:4-10. Here this book is open, showing that the book of Daniel has been unsealed, bringing us to the experience of 1844. See notes on Daniel 8:14; 9:25 for the meaning of the 2,300 years and 1844; cf. Ezekiel 2:9-3:3.

Revelation 10 Commentary

The day of the Lord begins within the 6th seal.

Note that it doesn't, because the future Day of the Lord begins at the Second Coming (1 Corinthians 1:7-8; 2 Thessalonians 2:1-8; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10), whereas the sixth seal will occur during only the first stage of the future Tribulation of Matthew 24 and Revelation chapters 6 to 18. For Revelation chapters 6 to 22 are chronological, insofar as the future Tribulation of Revelation chapters 6 to 18 will begin with the events of the second through sixth seals, occurring in the order shown in Revelation 6:3-14. After the events of the sixth seal, Revelation 7 will occur. Then the seventh seal will be unsealed, and out of it will come the Tribulation's seven trumpets (Revelation 8:1-6). Then the events of the first six trumpets in Revelation 8:7 to Revelation 9:21 will occur in the order shown there. Then Revelation 10 will occur. Then the literal 3.5 years of the future Antichrist's worldwide reign will occur, which time period is shown from four different angles in Revelation chapters 11 to 14 (Revelation 11:2b-3, Revelation 12:6,14, Revelation 13:5,7, Revelation 14:9-13).

Then the seventh trumpet will sound, announcing the legal end of the future Antichrist's reign (Revelation 11:15). Out of the seventh trumpet's heavenly-temple opening will come the seven plagues of the seven vials (Revelation 11:19, Revelation 15:5 to 16:1), the Tribulation's final stage. Then the events of the seven vials will occur in the order shown in Revelation 16. Jesus Christ's Second Coming will occur right after the seventh-and-last vial (Revelation 16:17,19, Revelation 19:2-21), and He will rapture (gather together) and marry the Church at that time (Revelation 19:7, Matthew 24:29-31; 2 Thessalonians 2:1-8). Then Jesus Himself will completely defeat the world's armies (Revelation 19:11 to 20:3), and reign on the earth with the physically resurrected Church for 1,000 years (Revelation 20:4-6, Revelation 5:10, Revelation 2:26-29; 1 Corinthians 15:51-53). Then the events of Revelation 20:7 to Revelation 22:5 will occur in the order shown there.

Isaiah 34 in the day

Click to expand...

To properly understand Isaiah 34:4, it should be read in its context (Isaiah 34:1-17).

Isaiah 34:4 refers to a future event which will affect "all nations" (Isaiah 34:2), the whole world (Isaiah 34:1).

In Isaiah 34:5, "Idumea" (Edom) is not (as is sometimes claimed) the ancient nation of Edom (present-day southern Jordan), but represents all nonelect people of all times throughout the world, just as the apostle Paul employs a reference to the man "Esau" (also called Edom: Genesis 25:30, Genesis 36:1) to represent all nonelect people of all times throughout the world (Romans 9:11-22). And in Isaiah 34:6, "Bozrah" is not the ancient city of Bozrah, but represents all corrupt civilizations of all times throughout the world, just as the "Babylon" which will be destroyed in our future in Revelation chapters 17-18 is not the literal, ancient city of Babylon (nor the present-day one, in Iraq), but represents all corrupt civilizations of all times throughout the world.

Isaiah 34 does not (as is sometimes claimed) refer to the destruction of the ancient city of Bozrah. For its territory is in present-day Jordan, and it is still inhabited (it could be the city of Busaira). It is not an eternally-burning land of fire and brimstone which no living person ever passes through, and will not ever pass through for all eternity (Isaiah 34:9-10).

Isaiah 34 will not be fulfilled until the future, Great White Throne Judgment (Revelation 20:11-15), when the present surface of the earth and its atmosphere (the first heaven) will pass away (Revelation 20:11). And all nonelect people of all times throughout the world will be resurrected, judged, and cast into the eternal suffering of the lake of fire and brimstone (Revelation 20:15,10, Revelation 21:8, Revelation 14:10-11).

Isaiah 2 -day of the Lord

Click to expand...

That's right.

And the Day of the Lord in Isaiah 2:10-21 has to begin at the Lord Jesus Christ's future, Second Coming, not (as is sometimes claimed) at the start of the future Tribulation of Revelation chapters 6 to 18 and Matthew 24. For during the second half of the Tribulation, it is Satan (the dragon) and his human son the Antichrist (the individual-man aspect of Revelation's "beast") who will be exalted by the world (Revelation 13:4-18, Revelation 12:9), not YHWH, which would contradict "YHWH alone shall be exalted in that day" (Isaiah 2:17).

Also, during the second half of the Tribulation, the world will worship the ultimate idol, the image of the Antichrist (Revelation 13:14-15), which would contradict that in that day "the idols he [YHWH] shall utterly abolish" (Isaiah 2:18).

So the people hiding in the rocks at Jesus Christ's future, Second Coming (Isaiah 2:19-21) has to be a separate instance from the people hiding in the rocks at one point during only the first stage of the future Tribulation (Revelation 6:15-16). It is not like people can hide in rocks only one time. Some people did it way back in 1 Samuel 13:6, for example. And Hosea 10:8b refers to the fall of Samaria in 722 BC (Hosea 10:7-8). And Luke 23:30 can include reference to the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD (Luke 23:28-30). So Revelation 6:16 can be just one more instance, years before Jesus' Second Coming in Isaiah 2:10-21, where "the glory of his majesty" is the same as in Matthew 24:30, at the Second Coming.
