FIRE: Elijah called down fire from Heaven to devour his enemies (2 Kings 1:10-12). The apostles wanted to have the power of Elijah, but Jesus explained their purpose as different (Luke 9:51-6). The fact that scorching people with fire will happen again with the Two Witnesses shows God's dealings with man after the Rapture have reverted to the days of the Old Testament economy. During the Church Age, witnessing to the lost has taken precedence over cleansing the population. During Daniel's Seventieth Week, justice is at the forefront, abounding mercy and grace more in the shadows. RAIN NOT: Imagine the famine resulting from a drought lasting three and one-half years. It will likely compound the famine inferred in Revelation 6:6. God promised in the Law that drought would be a consequence of disobedience. This judgment comes when the sin is idolatry or sacrilege concerning the temple.
WHEN THEY SHALL HAVE FINISHED: Paul had the same testimony in Second Timothy. The invincibility of the Two Witnesses in carrying out their divine mission parallels the Apostle Paul's experience. Paul faced an array of powerful adversaries, including religious authorities, Roman officials, and evil forces, without being silenced until his God-given mission was complete. 2 Timothy 4:17
The Two Witnesses are depicted as unstoppable in their prophetic work until their divinely appointed time is complete. Despite the hatred and violence against them—even from the Beast himself—they are not overcome until they have entirely carried out their mission. This fulfillment of purpose reflects the biblical theme that human or supernatural forces cannot thwart God's purposes. J
