Learn more about the ministry of the current project at www.projectmatters.com and this is: the discussion will be John the temple and judgment as we continue with Revelation chapter 11 is Dr. Davis. John is told to measure the dimensions of the temple which is a precursor to judgment. Usually arrived in Scripture is always an indication of coming judgment, measuring the Temple had nothing to do with determining size in this verse, it is a matter of circumscribing the realm of judgment which God is going to exercise against the idolatrous worship taking place under the leadership of the Antichrist and the tribulation, the Jewish Temple court. It's going to be charged with move on to the two witnesses as this is the subject of a lot of controversy in modern circles today.

Verse three says, and I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy 1260 days, clothed in sackcloth. Verse three introduces us to two witnesses. He will come on the scene as soon as the antichrist makes a covenant with Israel at the midpoint of the seven year tribulation. There are five key points that I like to emphasize here regarding the two witnesses first. The first point is there personalities. They are real human beings. I don't believe that in reading these verses that the samples they are wearing sackcloth a minister as profits in mourning over the spiritual condition of Israel had the verse mentions two olive trees and lampstands.

This is an old prophecy from the book of Zechariah the next point is there prophecies a prophet doesn't always mean that they are always foretelling the future.

Now that is one element of prophecies that it's foretelling but it's not always that it's foretelling profits can also speak the word in the will of God, which is fourth two so they may be revealing the events of what is going on at the present time and saying what they mean, rather than telling things in the future site really.

Who are these prophets. The first nonprofit I think this is is Elijah time. Malachi predicted that Elijah the prophet would come before the second coming.

To prepare the way of the Lord and let's get back to the book of Malachi chapter 3 verses one through three. Behold, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me. The Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant. In him you delight, behold, he's coming saying the Lord of host. But who can endure the day of his coming to can stand when he appears he is like a refiner's fire and the launderer set he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver he will purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver.

They may offer to the Lord and offering in righteousness.

Malachi 4 verses 5 to 6 held I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord and he will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children in the hearts of the children to their fathers list icon and strike the earth with a curse.

So again we see were Malachi predicts that Elijah the prophet will come before the second coming of Christ, and we know in this verse that I just read the great and dreadful day of the Lord is the second coming of Christ was going to teach matters with Dr. Cheryl Davis matters is a ministry project.
