Are you talking about the two that will witness in Jerusalem?

Sometimes I wonder if much of this has already happened and was covered up. I read an obscure article by an Irish scientist saying he has uncovered evidence that the earth may have been literally dark during the Dark Ages with evidence in bones in South America to writings in China about the sun disappearing. He requested that scientists study this phenomenon and the real possibility that catastrophic events happened on earth and in the heavens during the 7th century when Islam made it's rapid spread across the known world. When it became clear that the United States would go into Iraq it was fear I saw on Pope John's face. That set my mind to wondering what force would bring fear to Rome? If Israel is surrounded by enemies and the West is determined to appease those enemies even by dividing the Holy City that would bring to mind hell. I don't know who the testimony will come from or when or even if it already happened and is something that was covered up. I don't understand much of Revelations but I do think Islam is more than an irritant. I think it is Hell and I think death follows it.

I think we are in an age of great confusion and I do not know what exactly it is that causes desolation but the thought of atheism joining with Islam leaves my mind desolate. I think the two can work together because they both have a similar goal. Also they both are against Jesus one saying he is as Santa Clause and the other writing him a life as a mortal man who used deceit to fool Christians into witnessing his sacrifice. It seems they could partner for as long as it takes to destroy Israel or at least cause the memory of it to be wiped from the earth. Some believe it will never happen but in the meantime many will suffer in their attempt to do so. What will tempt even the faithful I don't know unless we become so exhausted we give up. Anyway as you can probably tell I am not very scholarly when it comes to the Bible so I am a humble witness to modern events and trying to connect them with the past and hoping the future will bring solace to our souls as the words of Jesus brought light to mine.

I agree with you about Christians and Jews and wonder if that was the two swords that Jesus spoke of in the garden as sufficient to fight against the darkness.
