The Two Witnesses of Revelation 11 are introduced in Zechariah 4

The two witnesses are mentioned in the Book of Revelation 11. Within Revelation 11 it reveals the two witnesses are referred to in the Book of the Prophet Zechariah, specifically Zechariah 4:1-5 and Zechariah 4:11-14:

Zechariah 4:1-5

1 Then the angel who talked with me returned and wakened me, as a man is wakened from his sleep. 2 He asked me, "What do you see?" I answered, "I see a solid gold lampstand with a bowl at the top and seven lights on it, with seven channels to the lights. 3 Also there are two olive trees by it, one on the right of the bowl and the other on its left." 4 I asked the angel who talked with me, "What are these, my lord?" 5 He answered, "Do you not know what these are?" "No, my lord," I replied.

Zechariah 4:11-14 11

Then I asked the angel, "What are these two olive trees on the right and the left of the lampstand?" 12 Again I asked him, "What are these two olive branches beside the two gold pipes that pour out golden oil?" 13 He replied, "Do you not know what these are?" "No, my lord," I said. 14 So he said, "These are the two who are anointed to serve the Lord of all the earth."

Both stand before the Lord of all the Earth ready to serve Him and obey His every command, like Elijah the prophet. Both men are filled with the Holy Spirit and generously share their God-given light of understanding with the nation Israel (collectively speaking of all Twelve Tribes of Israel) and to the world of Gentiles.

The two witnesses, wearing sackcloth (not suits and ties) will be in the one holy spirit, mission and purpose of "Elijah" - specifically the chief spokeman between the two who will hail from the Royal House of David (the other joins him from the Tribe of Levi - anciently these were the only two anointed positions in Israel). These two men, standing virtually alone against the wicked world, will be opposed by greedy Ahab (partially Israelite Europe) and pagan Jezebel (the Vatican), by Europe's wannabe divine emperor (the Beast) and the False Prophet (pope) who promoted him into high office having misled the masses to support him.

These two prophets of the Most High God will be able to control the weather for 3 1/2 years and afflict supernatural disasters, as necessary, anywhere on Earth as our Great Creator God has so decreed! He backs up their message with His miracles! Yet most of mankind will hate their guts for trying to get God's message across and undoubtedly jeer them saying, "You think you're right and the whole world is wrong?" And the whole world will be wrong, dead wrong, since Revelation 11:7-10 show them celebrating their murder and exchanging gifts with each other!

If you're interested in knowing more about the two witnesses, God's greatest servants just before the return of Christ, who powerfully herald the coming of our King, boldly speaking the plain truth however unpopular and dangerous, feel free to look around the Two Witnesses blog or download for free Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall or read Beyond Babylon online for free since it contains their main message, as I understand it.
