D. The Service of the Two Witnesses is Completed.

D. The Service of the Two Witnesses is Completed.
1. Revelation 11:7.
The service of these two witnesses for the Lord is completed. They will receive a Martyr's Crown, known as the Crown of Life in Revelation 2:10 b.
"...be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life."
“And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.” (Revelation 11:7 
God permits the Beast (Antichrist) to kill them only after they have finished their testimony. Nothing can harm them until God has completed His message and warning. This demonstrates God’s power over Satan. Satan’s children will try to kill them; but, will not be successful until God’s work is finished. God’s children have more power than their enemies. God permits their death only for His glory. Notice 2 Timothy 1:7-8.
“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”(2 Timothy 1:7)
“Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;” – 2 Timothy 1:7-8
2. Revelation 11:8.
“And their dead bodies shall lie in the STREET of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.”
Jerusalem is the capital of the world in God’s sight; and yet, is so spiritually decayed it is compared to Sodom. Yet, God allowed His two witnesses to lie in the street for 3 ½ days, and to be made a spectacle for a short time by these corrupt people.
The Earth could be said to be the capital of the universe, as it was by God’s power and for His glory that He created the Earth and gave it unto men. (Psalms 115:16) The world today is rapidly approaching the condition of Sodom with its spiritual decay. Christians are, seemingly, killed and made a spectacle of by the world.
Jerusalem thought it could do away with God’s Word by killing His witnesses. The world is trying to forget God in killing a Christian’s witness by slander, mocking and deceit. God showed His power to and over the world in a Resurrection of righteousness. The capital of the world and the capital of the universe are truly the Lord’s and the fullness thereof; as He will sit upon the throne of David in Jerusalem as King of Kings, and rule this world for a 1,000 years. Then it can be said that all things have been put under His feet, for the world and all in it belong to Him.
3. Revelation 11:9 : Television.
“And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall SEE their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.”
