"Patti C (23 Apr 2012) "WHEN DO THE TWO WITNESSES, WITNESS?")
Hello Marilyn!Thank you for your informative letter, and I will study it in greater depth, soon. I just wanted to answer your question about the 42 months given to the Anti-Christ. That was a mistake to have phased it that way. I meant when the Anti-Christ is indwelt by Satan. I totally believe that he will be on the scene from the beginning of the 7 year tribulation.
The first half he will be a peacemaker, and then break the covenant and the second half he will come into his full satanic power. The power given to the Two Witnesses would not overlap the power given to the Anti-Christ (Satan). I feel the Two Witnesses will be warning about what will happen when Satan is given control over the Anti-Christ before it happens, giving people time to repent and turn to the Lord. I could be wrong, and that is why I was asking others. It seems I was given a lot to study!!
I would like to mention that I am in total agreement about the possibility of May 17th being the day of Rapture. In one of my very first posts to Five Doves back in Dec.2011, I said that Ascension Day was my favorite pick for the Rapture. Seems as if there is more evidence on that date, every day!! Another reason I think it is a good date to look at is because it is not a Jewish Holiday or feast, but is entirely a Church and gentile holiday and we will be a gentile Bride.Thanks again for taking the time to explain what you have found to be true.

Hello Steve!!
WOW!!! Totally awesome and interesting information!! Thank you for sharing all that we me!! A bit overwhelming as there is so much there to take in and study. I read it once and will read it a few more times to digest all that you shared.
You and Marilyn had many points in common, and it is nice to know that we all agree on the rapture timing as “at the door”!!
Many Blessings to you!!

(RE: John B (24 Apr 2012)"Reply to Patty C........When do the two witnesses witness?")
Hello John!
First of all let me address the misunderstanding I created by somehow referring to the Anti-Christ’s reign as just 42 months. I should have said the satanically indwelt Anti-Christ. I thought I made it plain that I totally believe in a 7 year tribulation period, and that the Anti-Christ comes as the peace maker for the first half of the tribulation... I guess I did not…sorry about that!! I am in total agreement with what you say here:
“The reign of the antichrist will also start soon after the rapture and as per God in Daniel 9 will also last seven years. But you say....it says in Rev.13 that the antichrist reigns for 42 months or half of the seven years. Obviously then there is a conflict of time frames and God is not a liar....... so is the reign of the antichrist seven years as per Daniel or three and a half years as per Rev.13? It's seven years as God states in Daniel 9.”
So, we actually agree on everything, and that is interesting and encouraging. Thank you for expressing it with even more insight. I hope you read the posts from Marilyn and Steve, and would like to know how you see what they are conveying.
God Bless you!!
