Bible Discussion Thread

If the fig trees and lamp stands represent jews and gentiles.are the two witnesses a people or person?

Hi Dusty , this is my second reply to you , I've found the Bible references that I was thinking about , here they are , hope they help : Isaiah ch43 v8-12 and John ch15 v21-27 also Luke ch24v48 .

Hi Dusty , I can only tell you what I think , others may disagree . I believe that the two witnesses are the Israelites or Jews if you prefer , and the Christians . Somewhere , I think in Isaiah but I can't be sure without checking , God actually says , you are my witnesses , the Israelites in the desert and in Egypt before the dessert , witnessed amazing miracles and manifestations of God , I also believe that all the Jews who saw Jesus and the things he did by the power of his Father are witnesses , some of them believed and became what we call Christians , others rejected him . These are just my thoughts . Hope they help not hinder you .
