Primary Proof of the Bible: Types (Foreshadowings) of Christ & the Antichrist throughout History

The Two Witnesses of Rev. 11=144,000 Christians who will witness in pairs

Rev. 1:26: "the seven lampstands are the seven churches" AND

Rev. 2-3: Smyrna & Philadelphia ("brotherly love") are the only two of the seven churches (which represents all people professing to be Christians today, throughout history, and in John's day) not rebuked by Jesus in Revelation 2-3 and threatened to all be "cast" into terrible "Tribulation" AND

Romans 11:17: the Gentiles are called an "olive tree" AND

Luke 10:1: "The Lord sent them [seventy disciples] out two and two [to witness the Gospel] before his face into every city and place, whither He Himself would come [foreshadowing of events preceding Jesus' Second Coming]."

BUT
Rev. 11:4: the "two witnesses" are "the two lampstands" & "the two olive trees" which represent God the Father & God the Son

THEREFORE the Two Witnesses of Rev. 11 are Christians who will witness in pairs in many cities

Furthermore, many facts show that the 144,000=the sets of Two Witnesses.  For instance, consider
-that the 144,000 are called "the firstfruits" (Rev. 14:4) as Christ is called "the firstfruit of those fallen asleep" in reference to his rising from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:20) along with the fact that the people martyred (including the witnesses) and ONLY the people martyred are said in Revelation 20 to partake of the "FIRST resurrection."

-that the 144,000 are pictured in Heaven in Revelation 14 & 15 BEFORE the rest of the Christians arrive, for during this time the Christians are in the "wilderness" (Revelation 12, Exodus 16-17, Matthew 3 & 4) hungering & thirsting in order to undergo purification from sin & thereby be made pleasing to God's taste after He had spit them out (Rev. 3:16)

-the wall of the New Jerusalem is "144 cubits, a MAN's measure, that is, an ANGEL's" (Rev. 21:17); this verse echoes the "measuring" of the "temple" and of the "altar and them that sacrifice in it" in Rev. 11:1 in the chapter about the two witnesses, for true Christians like the 144000 martyrs are "the temple of the Holy Spirit" (1 Corinithians 3) and the 144K are pictured worshipping under an "altar" in Rev. 6.  Exodus 4-10 (Moses & Aaron causing plagues) & Rev. 11:6 ("they smite the Earth with PLAGUES as often as they will") suggest that the 144000 witnesses are actually the agents through which the seven trumpet judgments of Rev. 8-9 take place! This hypothesis is confirmed by the facts that the ANGELS are said to perform the plagues.

the 144,000 who are sealed in Revelation 7 are "spiritual Israel," not ethnic Jews (at least not altogether), who are said by Jesus to be of the "synagogue of Satan" (Rev. 2,3 in the passages about the two churches of Smyrna & Philadelphia which will have members witnessing in pairs):
-"The real Jew" is the person who is "circumcised in the heart" (Romans 2:28)
-Christians are children of "the heavenly Jerusalem" (Galatians 4), which represents the "city" (association) of true Christians.
-Israel means "has prevailed with God" [in gaining the "blessing" of eternal life which Jacob/Israel strove with Jesus "the angel of the LORD" for in Genesis 32]

-"Jew" means of the tribe of Judah, which is only one of the twelve tribes of Israel. Ten of the twelve tribes were scattered throughout the whole Earth by Assyria in the 8th century BC in accordance with prophecy as early as Deuteronomy 28. Britain & the USA originated from Ephraim and Manasseh respectively, as I show here: woes to befall the USA during Tribulation

IF YOU ARE NOT A "VIRGIN", YOU WILL EXPERIENCE MUCH OF THE SUFFERING DESCRIBED IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION VERY SOON. (Revelation 14:1-4 "These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins") Since all true Christians are called "virgins" for Christ the bridegroom including people who aren't literally virgins (Matt. 25), the word "virgin" here could refer to someone not "defiled" by sin (ex. Ezekiel 23: Israel described as "defiled by the Babylonians," and Babylon the Great is described as a "woman" in Rev. 17) Prepare yourself by diligently seeking God through prayer and "meditating on the law of the LORD day & night" (Psalm 1) so that you are not part of the 2/3 of lukewarm Christians who will "fall" in the "wilderness" because of temptation and end up in Hell forever "where the fire is not quenched." (Mark 9:48)

These two witnesses will be witnessing about Jesus in all "the great cities" (Rev. 11:8)- i.e. the Babylons "the great city" (Rev. 17:18)- of the Earth, including Rome, New York City, Hollywood Babylon, Paris Babylon, San Francisco ("Babylon by the Bay"), etc. They will have miraculous powers like Moses & Aaron to testify to their truth! They will be resurrected to show the whole world that Jesus really rose from the dead!

Many cities including Paris currently or in the past have fit the description of Mystery Babylon, including Paris which was the capital of Napoleon Empire & was thereby a foreshadowing of "the great city which rules over the kings of the Earth." (Rev. 17:18) This site discusses the many Babylons throughout world history: http://primaryproofsofchristianity.com/bible.html

The Bible indicates there are many Babylons by applying the language of Rev. 17-18 to many cities in the Bible, including Jerusalem (Deut. 4:6, Lam 1:1), Nineveh "the great city" (Jonah 1, Zeph. 2:15), Babylon, Tyrus/Tyre (Ezekiel 26-27), etc.

Only these people (who are equal to the 144,000) will be sealed so that they won't be harmed by the locusts (Rev. 7,9) and won't suffer in the wilderness of famine and thirst (Rev. 12) like the Jews & Jesus did (Exodus 16-17, Matt. 4).

"Pray at all times that you may be worthy to escape these things" (Luke 21) that "are about to come upon the whole habitable Earth" (Rev. 3:10), which you can only do if you "keep My Word of endurance" (Rev. 3:10) by meditating on God's holy Bible "day and night" (Psalm 1).

They will have the spirit of Elijah as John the Baptist was said to have had by Jesus, who even equated John with Elijah (Matthew 11).  That is the meaning the last sentence of the Old Testament in Malachi 4 that "I will send Elijah before the great & terrible day of the LORD."

As there are types of Christ & the Antichrist, so there are Types (foreshadowings) of the two witnesses (144,000=12x12,000) who all symbolize God the Father & Jesus having the same divine nature:
-Moses who is "like God" to Aaron & Aaron his "prophet"
-Elijah "the lord" & Elisha
-Zerubbabel the governor & Joshua the priest
-Paul & Barnabas
-Paul & Silas
-the 12 Apostles
-the 12 minor prophets
-the 4 major prophets
-the 24 elders (which include some of the above-mentioned people)
