Two Witnesses in the Book of Revelation who are they ?
 
Rev.11:3  And I will give [power] unto my two witnesses,
and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. 
These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.
 
 
How do you see it ?????
 
Who or what are they witnessing to ?
 
If they are heavenly being saints that made it to heaven,   are they gonna die again ? 
So will they have to be born of a woman to get the flesh body to die in ?

Thanks Jimmy
 
Show a little at how I see it.
 
Candlestick = Rev.1:20  the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.
Olive trees = Jews and Gentiles
 
The early church Jews only had one witness and it was to there own people = one big church group
 
Then about 4 years later the scripture had to be fulfilled about the Gentiles  being saved
and that witness came in Acts 10 Cornellius house.
That was a witness the HG was given to them also and that they are save thru Jesus.
 
Two different candlesticks as a group but the same in the Lord.
 
So I believe its the Jews and Gentiles Church of Jesus that are to witness him in truth.
 
I do believe this was the early rain church and we are to have the latter rain church here in our days. James 5:7
So its says the two witnesses stand on their feet again.
So there must be the Jews and Gentiles church together in truth in our day before Jesus comes back.(true body of Christ)

Bible gazerand Jimmy  --- I looked up the word candlestick/lampstand in the strongs in relation to the scripture in Revelations and found it interesting it can be two people.
Zechariah also refers to the olive trees as being Zerubbabel and Joshua.
I believe Elijha closed up the skies for three years as well.
 
Lifesong --there is much speculation on various applications...I just know we will know when it happens we will see it whether from the heavens or Earth

Greetings everyone.
I believe one on them is Elijah. Malachi 4:5 talks about Elijah coming back before the dreadful day of the Lord. Some say that was fulfilled with John the Baptist. However, John just dressed like Elijah. The other could be Enoch since he was the only other prophet taken up to Heaven without dying. Or it could be Moses since he was with Elijah on the Mountain of Transformation talking with Jesus about His upcoming death.

Rev. 11
 
Did it not say the Gentiles would trample it underfoot ?
 
Those Gentiles  did just that.
The early Church has fallen away. 2Thes.2
That 7th beast RCC system finally got the job done killed the two witnesses (Jewish ministers and Gentile minister of Jesus Christ )
These two candlestick were put out during the dark ages. (Jewish church  and Gentile chruch) Rev.1 candlestick represent a church
