Studies in Prophecy

4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.”
(Rev 11:3-4 KJV)
The two witnesses will prophecy for 1260 days of the judgment that is about to come. They will preach to Israel to accept Jesus as their God and Messiah. They will perform great miracles.
