Revelation 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.
Revelation 11:4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks
standing before the God of the earth.
The two witnesses are actually two different groups! Two candle sticks
and Two olive trees.
Revelation 1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.
A candlestick is a church or a group. And since only two of these seven
churches teach who the kenites are, it may very well be that the two candlesticks
are actually these two churches. These two churches definitely stand out
from the other five.
Smyrna
Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but
thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews,
and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
Philadelphia
Revelation 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan,
which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them
to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved
thee.
The two olive trees are two prophets, two individuals. A tree is used
to symbolize a man.
Zechariah 4:1 And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked
me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep,
Zechariah 4:2 And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have
looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top
of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps,
which are upon the top thereof:
Zechariah 4:3 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side
of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.
Zechariah 4:4 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with
me, saying, What are these, my lord?
Zechariah 4:5 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said
unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
Zechariah 4:6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the
word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but
by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.
Zechariah 4:7 Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou
shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with
shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.
Zechariah 4:8 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Zechariah 4:9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this
house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD
of hosts hath sent me unto you.
Zechariah 4:10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for they
shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with
those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through
the whole earth.
Zechariah 4:11 Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these
two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left
side thereof?
Zechariah 4:12 And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these
two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden
oil out of themselves?
Zechariah 4:13 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these
be? And I said, No, my lord.
Zechariah 4:14 Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that
stand by the Lord of the whole earth.
But only the two prophets are actually the ones that are killed, which
are the two olive trees.
Revelation 11:7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the
beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them,
and shall overcome them, and kill them.
Revelation 11:8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of
the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where
also our Lord was crucified.
Revelation 11:9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and
nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and
shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.
Revelation 11:10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over
them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these
two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.
The two candlesticks are part of the two types of witnesses, but they are not those who are spoken of in Revelation 11:7-11:10.
Therefore, to be fully accurate, especially to make sure we do not confuse
anyone, it is the two prophets who are killed and then raise 3 1/2 days
later and not the "two witnesses".
