Revelation 11:3-6 The Ministry of the Two Witnesses (December 1, 2024 PM, Rev. Michael Grasso)

In Revelation 11:3-6 the ministry of the church is described under the figure of two witnesses. These witnesses are described like Joshua and Zerubbabel from Zechariah 4. They are the two lampstands who stand before the Lord of all the earth, anointed for a kingly and priestly function as they make known the wonders of the gospel. They are also described like Moses and Elijah, given power as God's prophets, to overcome all opposition. Such is the nature of the church in this world as she bears witness to her Lord.
