The Antichrist comes first though. Bible 2 was saying that he thought that Elijah one of the witnesses could be the forerunner to Christ. That is unscriptural.It looks like Elijah will come as one of the two witnesses that is killed by the beast out of the abyss, which I think is the false prophet (beast out of the earth)....so, Elijah will be around during the reign of the beasts, trying to testify from Jerusalem about Jesus.

I had said in a prior post that John the Baptist came before Jesus the first time. The Antichrist will come before Jesus comes back again...something like that anyway. Bible2 said this:The forerunner to Jesus' first coming was John theMaybe I'm misunderstanding you...or maybe we're talking about different things...but....
I'm leaning more to the temple being built before the Antichrist reigns, before the Great tribulation starts. I get this thinking from the chronology of Matt 24. We are I believe in the last of the beginning of sorrows right now (Matt 24:8), and the abomination of desolation is right close after that in Matthew 24:15. The Jews say that the temple has to be built to the exact specifications of the old temple. That is going to take a good amount of time, and the tribulation is only 3.5 years. Unless there is a goodly amount of time between Matt 24:8 and Matt 24:15...8 verses, there wouldn't be a lot of time there otherwise for construction.I'm leaning toward believing that the temple will be rebuilt while Moses and Elijah are testifying because of Zech 4. They will be here during dangerous times because people will try to kill them or harm them and it looks like it's the false prophet who is allowed to kill them...(beast out of the earth/beast out of the abyss)...so I would think that they are here during the reign of the anti-christ....although they could arrive sooner and their 42 months could slightly overlap with the 42 months of the beast instead of be the same.
I had said in a prior post that John the Baptist came before Jesus the first time. The Antichrist will come before Jesus comes back again...something like that anyway. Bible2 said this:The forerunner to Jesus' first coming was John the
Baptist (Luke 3:4), who came in the spirit of Elijah
(Luke 1:17). The forerunner to Jesus' second coming
could be Elijah himself (Matthew 17:11) as one of
the two witnesses (Revelation 11:3). I was just clarifying to him again that the Antichrist comes before Jesus second coming...even before Elijah. I might not have made myself clearI should never post and watch tv at the same time lol. We are pretty sure that one of the witnesses is Elijah who comes during the tribulation. The beast kills them and they rise at 3.5 days. That's intersting to me that the tribulation is 3.5 years long, and the two witnesses rise after 3.5 days Weird.
