Fri 12/22 · Rev 11, Rev 13 · Rev 13 · Zech 9
黙11章のシェア・・ 多くの聖書教師は、黙11章の2人の証人は2人の個人だと信じています。しかし、私は彼らが終末のリバイバル教会を表していると信じます。その主な理由は、7節と黙13:7が同じ出来事について語っているからです。11:7には、「獣が、彼ら（2人の証人）と戦って勝ち、彼らを殺す」とあります。そして13:7には、「彼(獣)はまた聖徒たちに戦いをいどんで打ち勝つことが許され･･･」とあります。私の結論は、2人の証人と聖徒、つまり教会は同じだということです。 しかし、もう一つの疑問が浮かびます。反キによって殺されることは敗北を意味するのではないでしょうか？答えはノーです！第一の理由は、2人の証人が殺されるのは「証しを終えた」後だからです(11:7)！それはマタイ24:14の 「この御国の福音は全世界に宣べ伝えられて、全ての国民に証しされ、それから、終わりが来ます」とい意味にほかなりません。世界宣教と世界リバイバルが達成された後にのみ、終末教会は殺されるのです！ そして第二の理由は、彼らの死が歴史上最大の福音の証しにつながるからです！死んでから3日半後に復活し、すべての敵の前で天に上るのです（11-12節）！何百万人もの聖徒が殺され、復活し、そして世界の目の前で携挙されるのだから、それは歴史上最も強力なイエスの証しとなるでしょう！その結果、数千万人が救われると私は信じます！

Wed 12/20 · Rev 11 · Zech 7
Many Bible teachers believe these 2 witnesses are 2 individuals. However, I believe they represent the revival church of the endtime. The main reason is because v.7 and Rev 13:7…
Tue 12/19 · Rev 10 · Zech 6
I believe that the little book (v.2), the 7 thunders (v.3) and the 7th trumpet (v.7) are probably all related. They symbolize the mystery of God that will be completed…
Mon 12/18 · Rev 9 · Zech 5

Sun 12/17 · Rev 8 · Zech 4
T2 begins here. Rev 6:12-17 talks about T2, but close scrutiny shows it was only a preview, not the actual happening of T2. Why can we say that? Because Rev…
