When do the two witnesses resurrect and ascend?
The two witnesses are resurrected and ascend at the midpoint of the seven-year tribulation. This event occurs probably within a matter of 72 hours or three or four days, coinciding with the great earthquake at that midpoint, before the day of His wrath comes.
Les teaches that the two witnesses have already been seen resurrected and ascended, and this happens at the midpoint. He says it is probably within a matter of 72 hours or three or four days. That midpoint is marked by the sixth seal, a specific great earthquake, and the statement that the day of His wrath is come. The first three and a half years are not a Sunday school picnic or a utopia, and the remainder of that three and a half years gets progressively worse, with war, invasion, famine, and related troubles crescendoing until this midpoint.
