Who  and  What  is  the  First  Witness’  Function?      

Dear Friend,

God’s First Witness of His Two Witnesses has two Prophets.  I have shown that there is a “higher”  or First Prophet, and also a  “lower,” or Second Prophet, doing a different work or function.  The First Prophet teach  Paul’s gospel  Rom.2:16,  the   Mystery of God   Eph.3:3, while the lower Second Prophet teaches the gospel of faith, Jesus taught, based on the “laws of faith”  Rom.3:27,  where there is only one law,  and where “whatsoever is not of faith is sin” Rom.14:23.  

God confused people, and  HID  the truth Mat.13:35 that only the  “few”  would receive it Mat.7: 14, in this age or “dispensation” Eph.1:10, pre-ordained for evil.   Christ also   HID  His First Prophet at the End of the World Mat.24:3, that he could   NOT  be recognized, as Christ could not be recognized in Jesus,   UNTIL  Jesus was sacrificed on the cross.  Jesus said to His disciples, that without the “holy spirit” the Messiah or Christ can’t be recognized in Him. This is why Jesus said that the “comforter (holy spirit) will not come unto you; but if I  ‘depart’  (DIE), I will send it unto you” Jn.16:7.  For new truth to be accepted a “sacrifice” needs to be offered. 

The New Testament is very different from the Old Testament, it is made simple and changed from the ten (10) laws to the one (1) law of  faith.  The sacrifices of the Old Testament now offered through “faith” not by the “blood of bulls and goats.” 

For the Mystery given to Apostle Paul to be “accepted” by the Christians, Paul had to  DIE.  This is why Paul said:  “I rejoice in my sufferings for  YOU,  and   FILL  UP  that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in  MY FLESH  for His body’s sake, which is the church”  Col.1:24. 

God’s First Witness did not die, and will not die that he may be in the “resurrection”  ICor.15:52 without dying IThes.4:17 with the Elect of God Mat.24:22.  This is why God’s First Witness and its First Prophet had no followers, as Christ did not until Paul was called. This is why to even more confuse us, God may call another Prophet to be the Second Prophet of His First Witness, or He might just use the First Prophet to be the Second Prophet.  If this is the case, the First Prophet will be  “demoted” that God may approach us on our lower level where we can meet Him. 

This will even more confuse the un-converted and deceived Christians in the churches, because instead having two Prophets, now we will have   ONE  Prophet for the First Witness.  If this is the case, God’s  Second Witness' two Prophets might be given to us the same way.   Now this would really confuse the world.  The world expects Two Prophets and one will be for the Christians and only one will be for Israel.  This would make the Second Witness’ two Prophets, like the First Witness’ only  ONE  Prophet, as Acts.13:41 seem to indicate. 

It is difficult to “think as God” thinks, for it is not given to the “many”  Isa.55:8.  To think as God thinks is  “foolishness”   ICor.2:14 to us, to the degree we are willing to sacrifice  to receive God’s truth, which is the “mystery of God”  Eph.3:3, and God’s   “knowledge of salvation”  Lk.1:77.  To think as God you also must have God's  “holy spirit.” 

To “think as God” is so difficult that Moses constantly went to God’s Tabernacle, to ask God what to do and how.  Paul had the same experience also.  This is why all Christ's disciples left him, and so did all the other Apostles.  Peter said later, after Paul died that what Paul had written in “all his epistles, … is   hard  to  be  understood,   and those who are unlearned (or not called) … wrest as all the scriptures, unto their own destruction”  2Pet.3:16.  Paul knowing that he must die that the  “mystery” could be “accepted,” said: “let God be true and every man a liar”  Rom.2:4.  This is true now with God’s First Witness’ First Prophet.

When will God's First Witness' Second Prophet Arrive?

God’s Second Prophet will come after God’s First Prophet has finished his “testimony” or “work”  Rev.11:7.  This will be when he is   “rejected”   as Samuel was by Israel ISam.8:7, and Jesus was, as it was pre-ordained Lk.20:17, and  Apostle Paul was  even by the twelve Apostles, and later  ALL  the Apostles were rejected and the church had “fallen way” from the truth.  This is why we are now as the people were before the flood in Noah’s day Mat.24:37. 

The First Prophet was  “rejected”  when the city of  Santa Maria  in California refused to listen to God’s servant to let God’s people go, and return God’s auto to him.   This Prophet, like Moses, asked the Pharaoh, to allow Israel to “obey”  God’s  laws, religion and government,  and was “rejected”  on   July 6th  2006.  This was the  DAY  when the “world,”  the angelic host ruling humanity using the city leaders of Santa Maria, and humanity declared  WAR  on  GOD, as the Pharaoh did in Egypt, and Nebuchadnezzar did in Babylon during Daniel’s days.  

The Second Prophet of God’s First Witness is like the First was, a diplomat and an  “Ambassador of God”  2Cor.5:20, who  “restored”  God’s truth Mat.17:11, as Elijah and John the Baptist did,  by restoring God’s   LAWS,  and on these laws His  RELIGION  on these His  GOVERNMENT,  in God’s Embassy, set up legally as it was   “accepted”   by the government of  “this world,” of the Anti-god officially. 

God’s Second Prophet must make a  covenant”  of  peace,  as it was pre-ordained almost 4000 years ago to Daniel  9:27 that God’s Witnesses may do God’s  “WORK”  Acts.13: 41 preparing the world by  WARNING  it of its  destruction,  as it was in Noah’s day Mat.24:37.  This is when the three and a half (3.5) years for this Prophet’s work begins Rev.11:3.  This might define for us when God’s  “Elect”  will   FLEE   to God’s Place of Safety Rev.12:6. 

While  God’s First Prophet pioneered God’s system on earth, now God’s Second Prophet will make it possible for God’s FirstFruits  Rev.14:4, to “obey” God, our Creator not the Anti-god they know as “god” now.  This is when God’s true “obedient” children will  “come out” of this world Rev.18:4, motivated either to “save,” or to “sacrifice” their lives.  God will make for us a way to escape ICor.10:14 by helping them, to “enter into”  God’s Kingdom of Heaven’s Embassies Mat.6:10,33, as it was shown to God’s First Witness. 

Now, God’s  “highest”  and most difficult “laws of the spirit”  Rom.8:2 will   NOT  be taught, but Jesus’  “lower”  and temporary  “laws of faith”  Rom.3:27, and its religion of faith, and its government.  Since God’s system is  opposite  of the Anti-god’s, a change will need to take place in our government, to allow the two systems to exist side by side.  To do this a “covenant of peace” will be made for a short time with the government of the world.  

Our Creator Eph.3:9 will use His   “covenant of peace”   to bring faith and credibility to the USA government, that the dollar may not fully collapse and crash the world’s monetary system.  This peace will strengthen the dollar which is under a crushing credit debt, it owes to China, Japan, India, Europe and all the other nations, which are supporting our dollar.  This  “covenant of peace”  will  “hold back”  the evil 2Thes.2:6, of the   appearance  of the  “man of sin,”  who is the Biblical   BEAST   V.2, and   World War 3.   This peace will make the true Christians  “neutral”  to the government, and will allow true Christians to respond to God’s  “calling”  Jn.6:44 (and nobody can come to Christ unless the Father personally calls them), to  “come out”  of this world, religiously, legally, and financially, and still work and do things as they are doing in the world.  

Knowing that the Spirit Beast has been let loose from the  “bottomless pit”  Rev.9:1 by Satan,  and that Satan was  “cast  out”  from heaven  “to the earth”  before that Rev.12:9, indicates that God’s Second Prophet of His First Witness, and also God’s First Prophet of His Second Witness is not far away to appear, if they are not here now.  

The real question is will you be able to find or recognize this Prophet or Prophets and will you be able to follow him or them.   If you do, you must make all effort to help others get to know them, because God will not advertise them to the world.

The  "Midnight Cry,"  God's  First Witnesses' Work

The good news is that “God is  FAITHFUL,  who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also  MAKE  a   WAY  to  escape,  that you be able to bear it”   ICor.10:13.  We know that the arrival of the Anti-christ, the BEAST is very near.  He will come when the Human Beast will die, and the Spirit Beast will possess his body pretending that it was resurrected.  After that will come his   “reign of terror”   and the killing of all Christians Rev.12:17; 13:15 who will “obey” God, and did not   FLEE   to God’s Place of  Safety Rev.12:6. 

We know that “God will do nothing, but He reveals His secret unto His servants the Prophets” Amos.3:7.   Now, the  “destruction of the whole world”  is an event God will notify His servants, His Two Witnesses to warn us Mat.24:37. God warned Noah way before the flood, and made a “covenant”  with him and his family, and promised  PROTECTION  if he shown his  FAITH  to do God’s “work”  by building an ark, in which he and his family would be saved Gen.6:18.  God will make a  “covenant”  also with His Two Witnesses as it was shown to Daniel 9:27!   

God gave Noah and the world a   “Midnight  Cry”  Mat.25:6 as He promised to give one to us now, at the End of the World.  God waned Noah  “seven days”   before the flood Gen.7:4.  Does this means that God is giving three and a half  (3.5) years to Christianity to change from “obeying” the Anti-god, the “god of this world” 2Cor.4:4 not to commit idolatry?  I feel this is what we are reading here.  Christ gives us three and a half years to “repent.” Then God gives Satan to rule the world three and a half  (3.5)  years to punish us as he rules the world.  After this will come the End of the World Mat.24:3.  In Joseph’s day God gave seven years of plenty and seven years of famine to the Egyptians. 

Jesus said:  “this gospel, ( Jesus’  ‘gospel of  faith’  given to the twelve Apostles,  and now to His First Witnesses Second Prophet ) of the kingdom   SHALL   be preached in  ALL  the world for a  WITNESS  unto  ALL  nations; and then   SHALL  the  END  come”  Mat.24:14.  As a result of this “work” of God Acts.13:41, we will see a  “Great Multitude”  Rev.7:9  come out from the Christian churches, to make the “FirstFruits” of God Rev.14:4, who first trusted in Christ. 

As we have seen Jesus’ gospel given to His twelve Apostles and Christ’s gospel given to Apostle Paul (or Paul’s gospel Rom.2:16), is not what is preached in the churches.  The Christian churches teach a gospel, the   mystery of iniquity  2The.2:7, based on “codes” and “credit” and “insurance,”  and the “doctrines of the Pharisees”  Mat.16:6,12.  Jesus’ and His  twelve apostles’  gospel  of  faith  is based on God’s New Testament’s   “laws  of  faith”  and man’s  “laws, money and faith”  Rom.3:27!   The resurrected Christ’s highest gospel given to Paul, the   “Mystery  of  God  Eph.3:3  is based on God’s  “laws of the spirit”   Rom.8:2, and it is  NOT  limited by physical  “laws, money and faith,”   and the  “doctrines”  what Jesus gave to His Twelve Apostles.  These gospels are   ALL   different and  separate  gospels, each more advanced than the previous one, and   CAN’T be mixed, blended, made into   ONE  and united.   

God’s gospels set a “priority” and by it eliminate “confusion,” which is in the world. 

God’s Midnight Cry  will call out His children IJn.3:10 from the world and its churches, to set up God’s  LAWS   which applies to them, His   MONEY  and  His three   KINGDOMS   in His legally set up Embassies, that His children be His Ambassadors to the world, as Israel was. This is why Christ our King of kings sent his First Witness’ First Prophet.  Now He will send His Second Prophet, and then His Second Witness’  First Prophet and last His Second Witness’ Second Prophet.  Each Prophet brings a “Lower” law and its administration of His religion and government. God is coming down to our lower and lower, level giving us greater and greater chance to be in the resurrection at His second coming. 

If you consider how much God’s Prophets need to accomplish in the short  three and a half (3.5) years  Rev.11:3, you will see why the “many” Christians in the churches will not be able to respond to God’s calling Mat.7:14 and the “Day of the Lord”  Joel.2:11; IThes.5:2, the “seventh seal” Rev. 8:1, or the End of the World Mat.24:3 will come upon them as a “thief in the night” IThes.5:2, like the flood on the people in Noah’s day.

 The Rewards of  Following God's First Witness

We are living at the End of the World, and the most difficult times of all human history, the “tribulations”  Mat.24:21.  There was never a more difficult time or ever shall be what we are living in now and what is coming.  Unless these coming days will be “shortened, there should no FLESH  be saved: but for the  ‘Elect’s sake’  these days shall be  SHORTENED”  V.22. 

Humans and Christians not having God’s  “holy  spirit,”  or eternal life in them,  CAN’T comprehend, or imagine death or eternity.  This is why the news of the End of the World scares people and they can’t handle this news.  This lack of ability to handle negative news is the proof that Christians do not have God’s “holy spirit,” only the Holy Spirit of the Anti-god, which is not Christ’s.  This is why so few people able to “hear” our Father’s call to come to Christ and to hear the truth and to act on it.   

Thankfully,  God  will  “pour  out”  His  “holy  spirit”  on  us   Acts.2:17 using His First Witness’ Second Prophet, giving us this ability to do “acts of faith” to come out of this world, to be protected from this world’s “plagues” Rev.18:4.  Those who have the holy spirit  will be able to baptize others and the message will spread among the people.  Now people will be “baptized,” if they are going to “receive” God’s new gospel and willing to act on it.  

There will be a "Great Multitude" coming out of Christianity, starting a Revival of the truth.  The Anti-god also will have a greater Revival.  Those who will not be anchored in God’s “doctrines” and base their Christianity not of  “faith,” but feelings of religious experiences, healings, and miracles will be in trouble.  Those who do not have God’s truth will be unable to separate truth from error and will be victims of Satan’s deception.  Those whom God will call  Jn.6:44, and they will “obey” God, will be protected from the many types of   “plagues,”  sicknesses, financial problems, persecution, and violence and ever increasing general difficulties, and direct demonic activities in their lives. 

God will protect His own and will use them to do “exploits” for Him, bringing many to God.  Many will be freed from their chains, holding them hostage in their spiritual, mental, emotional and physical, and other prisons.  God can make us   FREE  in a prison, as His eternal world opens up to us.  Our Creator’s aim is not to save us from our trials, but to overcome them that through them  we could overcome our fears, therefore  qualify  to flee to God’s Place of Safety, to be ready for the resurrection or to be in God’s millennial reign.  

The greatest reward following God’s First Witness and his Second and First Prophets is that we will overcome our fears with our faith to become  FREE   to help others, bringing love, happiness, joy and fulfillment in our and other’s lives.  Unless we have God’s power in us, His holy spirit, and the knowledge of salvation, our limitations causing us to be frustrated and unhappy. Knowing who we are, and the ability to see priorities and seeing the big picture will eliminate our frustrations and unhappiness.   

The   End  is   HERE;  the  resurrection  and  eternal  life  is  now  in  sight.  God’s millennial kingdom is very close.  You have a chance to be in the "better" resurrection, the resurrection without dying.  The time is now very short. Yes we have years, but to do what we need to do, it is a very short time.

I pray that you may hear God’s First Witness to become a true Christian, and that you may be baptized by one of God’s First Witnesses to be protected and saved!  I pray that you may become a part of God’s   “work,”   to   WARN   the world, and to   CALL  God’s children out of the Churches of the Anti-god.  I pray that you become an   ELECT  of  God   to be in the  “better”  resurrection at Christ’s second coming Heb.11:35, without dying.    

May Christ  bless,   Protect   and   SAVE  you at the   End of the World. 

In the reality of Christ Eternal love,
