ENOCH AND ELIJAH: THE TWO WITNESSES

ALL MEN MUST EXPERIENCE DEATH

*     "All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again" (Eccl. 3:20).
*     "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned" (Rom. 5:12).
*     "For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive" (1 Cor. 15:22).
*     "And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment" (Heb. 9:27).

TWO MEN DID NOT DIE YET!
 
ENOCH
*     "And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years:  and Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him" (Gen. 5:23-24).
*     "By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God" (Heb. 11:5).
*     "And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of His saints, to execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him" (Jude 1:14-15).

ELIJAH
*     "Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD" (Mal. 4:5).
*     "And His disciples asked Him, saying, Why then say the scribes that  (Elijah) must first come?  And Jesus answered and said unto them,  (Elijah) truly shall first come, and restore all things.  But I say unto you, that (Elijah) is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them" (Mt. 17:10-12).
*     "But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of (Elijah), when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land" (Lk. 4:25).

THE TWO WITNESSES OF REVELATION ELEVEN
*     "And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth" (Rev. 11:3).
*     "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" (Rev. 11:7).
*     "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.  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" (Rev. 11:11-12).
 
IF ALL DIE, ENOCH AND ELIJAH HAVE TO BE THE TWO WITNESSES
