THE OLIVE TREES

Despite the severe nature of the persecution during the tribulation many Christians continued to meet and hold services. However these services occurred underground. They prayed, read the Bible and the write ups from Rev. Boniface and Pastor Kingston.

The words from these scriptural text were of great encouragement to the reformists worldwide. But these two men were shielded from public view. It was not as if they deliberately chose to hide but by divine intervention the ALMIGHTY kept them away from public life so they can concentrate more on their assignment.

In their secret place they spent much time praying for the Christians whose lives were constantly in jeopardy. Then the LORD gave them power that they may come out and be his witnesses and prophesy for a period of three and one-half years.

THE OLIVE TREES 3

Rev 11:3-13

3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.

5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.

6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.

THE OLIVE TREES 5

7 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.

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.

9 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.

THE OLIVE TREES 6

10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.

11 And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.

12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

13 And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
