Reading through the New Testament... Two witnesses prophesy for 3 1/2 years; they have the power to shut up the rain and turn the water into blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they want... The beast (Antichrist) comes up from the Abyss and kills them... inhabitants of earth celebrate over this for 3 1/2 days and then the witnesses are resurrected and called up to heaven... a severe earthquake levels 1/10 of the city (the 2nd woe has passed and the 3rd is about to begin)... the seventh angel sounds his trumpet and loud voices in heaven announce the kingdom of God... the 24 elders thank the Almighty that He has taken His great power and has begun to reign... the temple of God in heaven is opened, revealing the ark of His covenant, and there come "flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an earthquake and a great hailstorm"
