Revelation 11:1-3

What is the meaning of Revelation 11:1-3?

First look at the Chapter before it. Revelation 10:7 speaks of the mysterious plan of God being accomplished in full. St. John is told by God to take an open scroll from the hand of the angel standing on the sea and on the land.  He asks the angel for it. He is told by the angel: “Here, take it and eat it! It will be sour in your stomach, but in your mouth, it will taste as sweet as honey”.

St. John took it and ate it. It was indeed sweet as honey in his mouth. But when he swallowed it, it was sour in his stomach just as he was told it would be.

It was sweet to the taste because the Word of God is sweet to the person who receives it, and because it predicted the final victory of God’s remnant- His holy people.

It was sour to the stomach because it predicted the trials and sufferings we, God’s remnant- God’s Holy People, His loyal Christians alive this last hour of the last days, will endure.

Also look at Ezekiel 3:1-11 before Revelation 11:1-3,mirror images numerically. God’s prophet Ezekiel had to eat a scroll which had written on it, “Lamentation and wailing and woe!”(Ezekiel 2:9) It was sweet as honey in his mouth. Again, this is because the Word of God is sweet to the person who receives it.

It was sweet to the taste( Ezekiel 3:3), and one could say it ended up being sour to his stomach, as he was told to fill his stomach with the scroll and to go to the house of Isreal, a rebellious people of God, and speak God’s words to them, of which their refusal to listen would bring about terrible things.

God sent Ezekiel first to the House of Isreal who the Lord said would not listen to him since they would not even listen to the Lord God Himself. They were indeed stubborn and obstinate in heart and refused to listen to him just as God predicted beforehand. (Ezekiel 3:1-9)

After that rejection, Ezekiel was told by God to take into his heart all the words that He speaks to him and to heed them well and to go to his countrymen in exile saying to them: “Thus says the Lord God! – whether they heed or resist.

He went as God asked, and he sat among them for seven days distraught. (Ezekiel 3:15)

Ezekiel was distraught because he became overwhelmed by the magnitude of his prophetic calling and by the dreadful, sinful state of God’s people there.

At the end of this week, the word of the Lord came to Ezekiel, and God informed him that He appointed him as a “watchman” for the House of Isreal  to warn His people of Isreal regarding their rebellion. He was told by the Lord that when he hears a word from His mouth, he shall warn them on behalf of Him.(Ezekiel 3:17)

It was made known to Ezekiel that if he does not warn them as God wills, he would be held responsible for the death of their souls. But if he does warn them as God wills, his life, his soul, in doing so, would be saved. (Ezekiel 3:18-21)

But then things got complicated. The Lord had him shut himself up in his house and He made him dumb so he could not speak and rebuke the people in exile for being a rebellious house while Jerusalem was under siege. Only when God spoke to him and opened his mouth could he speak these words: “Thus says the Lord God!” And God said: “Let him heed who will, and let him resist who will, for they are a rebellious house.” (Ezekiel 3:27)

It wasn’t easy for Ezekiel, but he did what had to be done at the request of God.

There are two prophets of God who are alive today who are being molded by God to submit to His divine guidance that they surrender to Him and trust in Him and do what God requests of them. They are led by the Holy Spirit, as to what they have already done in the Lord God, as to what they are now doing in the Lord God, and as to what they must yet do in the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

Yes, the time will come when they are sent by God in a very dramatic way.

At the same time there is Satan who is molding, for his very evil purposes, his false prophet and anti-Christ. Yes, they are alive today.

These two watchman of the Lord’s in the now and present must take to heart all that God says to them.

They are to speak what God wants spoken to a rebellious Christianity, Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant.

They are to speak what God wants spoken to a rebellious Isreal in the flesh, who are in exile from Jesus Christ who is their Messiah.

They are to speak to a rebellious Islam, who is dear to Jesus Christ, who are not forgotten by God, even as they do not know Jesus Christ as God.

They also are to speak what God wants spoken to the rebellious rest in the world who need to come to believe in Jesus Christ and live by the grace of God and not by Satan and the world.

These two prophets of God will do as they are told by God. Lest they are judged for not doing so.

And woe to those saying they are prophets of God who send the wrong messages to people! For certain, they will be judged for doing so by the Lord God. The Lord God is to be taken seriously!

This brings us to the meaning of (Revelation 11:1-3)

Saint John is given a measuring rod to measure God’s Temple and altar and all who worship there but to exclude the outer court. The Temple of God here is not a Temple of God that is planned to be built in Jerusalem as many misinterpret. It is the Church of Christ. It is God’s Christians in this last hour of the last days, who are a spiritually alive body of believers of Jesus Christ who are being built up in Him, who are a dwelling place for God. We are God’s Holy Temple!(1 Corinthians 3:16-17)

Thus says the Lord God! It is God’s will that all his Christians offer to Him in this last hour of the last days the gift of God to God, which is the perfect sacrifice of Jesus on Calvary offered in an unbloody manner in every legitimate Mass, as Satan seeks the opposite.

The Holy Mass is not just any Christian worship service, it is a divine gift from God to us that, in turn, is offered back to God, making it the perfect form of worship of God.

The Holy Mass is the sacrifice of the New Covenant in a sacramental manner in which Christ, the principle Priest, through the ministry of His ordained priest, offers Himself to God the Father in an unbloody manner under the appearances of bread and wine. Jesus Christ is Priest and Victim. Jesus Christ does not die again. He does not shed His Blood again. The Holy Mass continues the Sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross. Made present is the one, eternal sacrifice of Jesus on Calvary. A new sacrifice is not offered.

It is God’s will that all His Christians receive the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Christ in Holy Communion. It was always His will from the very beginning.

God has spoken these Words of His to me and I have not failed to speak them to others as He has decreed. I have been doing so for some time now.

 What the Lord has me saying about worshiping in the inner court as a Lampstand of His, goes hand in hand with what He has had me saying as God’s messenger of the New Covenant in this last hour of the last days, that all offer due sacrifice to the Lord. (Malachi 3:1-3)

Whether you heed or resist, God’s words are being spoken.

Protestant Christendom, you are in exile from offering with Jesus Christ to God the Father, Himself who is the only acceptable Victim as a pure offering to Him, and you are also in exile from receiving the Body, Blood, soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist. God is saying to you, that, when possible, this must no longer be.

But your Catholic and Orthodox brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ are far from giving you a proper example. It is just as much on them for God’s will to be done. They must also be with the Holy Spirit and do what is right in the Lord God concerning this matter to bring all who will listen and heed God into worship of God in the inner court.

You Catholics and Orthodox thinking yourselves as worshiping God in the inner court, but who do not believe in the transubstantiation, and who are committing sacrileges, who are receiving Jesus Christ in mortal sin, you are not worshiping God in the inner court. You are profaning the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ! You, along with those who do not give to God, and will never want to give to God, that pure worship of God which is in the inner court, will be counted among those persecuting Jesus Christ and His remnant. Unless you repent.

It is God’s will that Jesus’s prayer is answered that we, His Christendom repent of our wrong doings and that we be one and witness to the world that unity which can only be in Christ Himself and in nothing else. 

Is there another messenger of God saying what I am saying in the Lord God, calling for preparing for the Lord as I am? If there is not, that should tell you something.

Those in the House of God who are pure of heart will endure God’s refining and purifying. All others will not. Wanted is God to send a messenger. But when He does, many do not have it in them to discern properly and accept what may be unpleasant to them which is from God. Yet the false prophets often speak over and over the same false teachings in the name of Jesus Christ, and they are listened to on a grand scale.

No one can stand in his or her own righteousness, but only through the refining and purification of the Lord God!

Do not doubt what God calls for this in the most difficult time of it ever being able to take place, a very complicated time, a time where there is a very divided, complex, infiltrated and influenced by Satan in an immense way, rebellious Christendom of which  the Harlot Church in the name of Jesus Christ is larger than God’s remnant Church in Jesus Christ.

God has said to me that it is not about all Christians becoming Catholic or Orthodox. It is about all of His Christians coming to know Jesus Christ on God’s Altar and offering God the Father His only begotten not made Son as a holy, spotless and living sacrifice. It is about all His Christians believing in and receiving Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist. It is about a reconciliation with God’s priesthood in some way for this to be possible.

The Lord God has not given me all the details of how such as this is even able to take place, as there are my obstacles to it.

Many Christian denominations have already apostatized over the likes of the evils of abortion, practicing homosexuality, transgenderism and more. How will they ever come to heed God is this matter concerning God Himself when they have cut themselves off from Him already in other ways?

There is God’s messenger of the New Covenant in this last hour of the last days. He has sat writing many sons of Levi, speaking to them what God wanted spoken to them, that they be refined and purified in the Lord God, long before much which is evil in Christendom took place concerning whole denominations.

This messenger of the Lord God is still sitting and writing men of God, and all the people of God, and all who are open to God, what God wants spoken to them.

But who will take to heart what God has His messenger writing?

His first website was hacked badly. But most of what was written there is now written in the 2nd.

Keep in mind that God’s prophets are fallible, but their fallibility does not negate the words of God they speak at the request of God.

God’s prophets are just like all their brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ, as they make mistakes, they commit sins and they need to repent of their sins when they do so. They have desires and fears.

One of them can be a real mess at times, but God’s love for him and his love for God is always very real. And his anointing of God will always remain. He is protected by God from deception, and from Satan’s greatest desire concerning him. He knows only too well Satan’s hatred for God and for him.

This messenger of God who is very grateful to God for His grace ,and mercy, and patience , who is sometimes  overwhelmed by the magnitude of his prophetic calling in Jesus Christ, and by the dreadful, sinful state of many of God’s people today, and of all peoples who say they believe in God, and of all others in the world, has not failed  to reach out, nor has he stopped reaching out, nor will he ever stop reaching out as God asks.

Being in God’s hands, he is being carried by God wherever God goes with him. He is still not very polished in certain ways, not like so many others saying they speak in the name of God. But that is not what anyone needs to see or experience. Everyone needs to see and experience the Holy Spirit who moves this poor messenger to the task. The Holy Spirit is the One to heed.

Catholic and Orthodox men of God, and all Christians which God has had this prophet of His call: Judah in the Spirit of Jesus Christ at times, you must take seriously God’s warning to you of Satan’s infiltration.

Protestant men of God and all Christians in exile, who God has had this prophet of His call: Isreal in the Spirit of Jesus Christ at times, who do not offer to God the gift of God, who do not have the, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Christ in the Holy Mass, you must take seriously God’s warning to you not to  reject the refining and purifying of God, and His revival and restoration brought to you. Upon knowing God’s will, if it is made possible, do not remain worshipping God in the outer court!

All in Christendom in this hour who remain doing things their way and not God’s way, whether they are Catholic, Orthodox or Protestant, will suffer the consequences shown in Revelation 11. They will be counted among the Gentiles, those who persecute Christ and His faithful remnant faithful to Him. And they will receive the same fate as them.

Sadly, many in Christendom will along with much of the rest in the world will hate two particular witnesses of God, and other witnesses of God as well, for telling them what God wants said to them and for telling them what they must do to be in good standing with God.

In arrogance, in stubbornness, many will reject men of God who speak what God wants spoken about worshiping God in the inner court. They will refuse to believe it is God’s will. They will not want to comply. Not at all! They will hate them along with much of the rest of the world who will hate them. They will hate them for their own reasons.

May those of you in Christendom who  are arrogant to believe you are more worthy to be raptured out of here and not be subjected to the test than others who have a different encounter with God but who love Him with a pure love, who are  believing that  you will be  raptured out of here and not be subject to the trial and testing of God, come out completely from the demonic spell you are under. Lest you be swept away by your arrogance when you are not raptured out of here and you are indeed subjected to the trial.

We are all being asked by God to choose Him and His will over our own.

May those of you who will not approve of,or agree with, God’s revival and restoration which can only be real in Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist, who choose instead to be content to worship  God in the outer court, not find fault for too long with what are God’s words spoken on the matter. Lest you be swept away for all eternity in the great apostasy from Jesus Christ.

The many of you who will choose to do as you please will do so, but the mysterious plan of God which has no flaws will be accomplished in full.

The two witnesses in (Revelation 1-3) and other witnesses of God, will call for Jesus’s prayer in (John17:9-19) to be answered. They will call for that witness to the world which is that unity of His Christians which can only be in Jesus Christ Himself in the Holy Eucharist. They will call for God’s revival and restoration in all of Christendom.

All who are with the Holy Spirit will give God’s witness to the very end despite persecution, false accusation and condemnation. They will do so in the very time of  Satan, who hates with the greatest of passion the Holy Sacrifice to God, Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist, as evidenced by his black Masses, working to abolish the Holy Sacrifice and Oblation( Daniel 9:27)in Christendom, and his seeking to require abstinence from the Holy Eucharist and all the Foods of God by all of Christendom. ( 1 Timothy 4:1-4)

The two witnesses of the Lord God will speak to all God’s Christendom in need of rescue. They will speak to Isreal in the flesh of Jesus Christ their Messiah rejected. They will speak to Islam, who also acknowledge the Creator, who also profess to hold the faith of Abraham, of Jesus Christ, who is God and their Messiah rejected, who is the only way to God the Father. And they will speak to all the nations on the earth and tell them as well that they cannot take the mark of the beast; that if they do they will be forever lost.

All on the earth, of every belief and religion, who choose  to take the mark of the beast show loyalty to Satan.

The day is coming all too soon when these two will prophesy wearing black and ashes, with power from God to strike the earth with plagues in order to melt out a portion of God’s chastisement, not that souls be lost, but that some be saved.

When they have finished giving their testimony they will need to be very brave at that moment.

Do not choose Satan’s way or man’s way over God’s way. Don’t get it wrong, because this is an eternal decision on your part.

God’s prophets cannot say whatever they want to say, whatever they feel like saying. They have to say what they’re told to say by the Lord God Almighty who is the Creator of all that is and all that ever will be.

Keep in mind that God’s human messengers are far from perfect. As they are alive on earth, they are being molded, shaped by God, just like everyone else, in character, purpose, and life, through trials, time and divine intentional design. Keep in mind also that at the same time there are two men being molded by Satan. He is about shaping his false prophet and anti-Christ. All are subject to the trial. 

God’s prophets must give way to God just like all who wish to be in Heaven with Him one day must do so.

There is a heaviness which comes with the of speaking controversial messages from God. God’s watchmen of the New Israel need a lot of prayers. 

One of them has been humbled in many ways by the Lord. It would seem it was very necessary. 

One has God’s anointing the same as Elijah. One has God’s anointing the same as Moses. Both have to use God’s grace given to them. It is their choice to do so or not to do so.

Yes, the evil one messes with them. But only so far as God permits.

I leave you with this: We all have to allow God to shape us, transform us (Isaiah 64:8), refine us, get rid of our stubbornness. And we have to trust in God to make us more like Jesus Christ of Nazareth. And we must allow Him to do so.

I love God above all, I love you all, good and bad, and hope and pray that we let God finish His masterpiece in each and every one of us.
