Foreword:

The Gentile Witness
Book II, Elijah

Welcome to the second book of the Gentile Witness series. As in book one, I believe that tribulation will occur when these two men from God appear. However, even if you do not believe this starts the time of tribulation and are a diehard Rapture believer, maybe this writing will give you a different perspective. 

The
only
one clear reference in the Bible as a starting point of tribulation is in Revelations 11:3-14 King James Version

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.

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
kindred’s
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.
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.

14
The second
woe
is past;
[and
], behold,
the third
woe
cometh
quickly.

Note this verse covers the first half of tribulation, or 1,260 days. During this time as you read the verses, they have control over the earth. Like Moses, they control the weather, can cause plagues, control the earth itself, and they cannot be harmed. 

These verses are what prompted me to write the Gentile Witness Series. For I have read book after book on the end times. Including, all of the best sellers and other commentaries on the subject. Most prophecy novels use the basis of the ‘Rapture. All have stories related to failure to make it in the first round to heaven, by not being, taken up at the beginning of tribulation. Then these characters fall in love, find God in the crisis and save others. 

These are all great story lines but not very likely to occur. The most basic reason is there is no clear biblical proof of the concept of rapture.

Now, based on research by others, about twenty percent of American Christians believe in the rapture. Most of those who do believe this doctrine belong to evangelical Churches. This number is greatly, reduced when it is measured worldwide; it is estimated at less than ten percent. Of all the major Monolithic religions, that number goes to less than one percent. This includes all Abrahamic religions (also Semitic religions), Jewish, Christian and Muslim. 

My journey in writing this series started in a dream. I woke up at 3:00 AM one day sat down in front of the computer and wrote the outline for these books based on that dream. From that point, it took me a year to write book one and three years to complete book two. 

Therefore, I had an outline but I did not have the substance. It took a lot of research and a lot of thinking to come up with a modern day story line. These books included the
Bible
, and various reference books I recommend you read. Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews
, The Book of Enoch, No Rapture by Jack Wasson, and most Rapture Based Novels written since 1980. I also read controversial books such as Zecharia Sitchin series of books, Karen Armstrong’s
Genesis
, the
Enuma Elish
(The Mesopotamian, Babylonian Creation Myth),
Chariots of the Gods
, Erich Von Dainken
and various other similar books. I also read various synopsis by scholars of the Qur’an (Islam), Bible (Jewish and Christian), Ramayana (Sanskrit ‘India), Greek Mythology, and Buddha
.
 

I read all these books for a reason. During the time of Tribulation not only are the Witnesses a very important part of the story but so is the Antichrist. I needed the Antichrist, False Prophet, and the Beasts side of the story. For during this time they need to deceive the seven billion people on earth and lead them astray. They have to have a convincing story to tell.   

That is why even though three years ago at the time of release of the first book I had over half of book II written. I quit writing. I did not have this part of the story. The authors before in all the Rapture based novels only skimmed this part. It is the most important thing we need to know. How will the masses, be deceived? This book now explores this hypothesis. 

When I finally started writing book II, again I deleted close to half the original content and started over. The result is four stories are now unfolding. 

• The ministry of Jesus Christ as told by Enoch and Elijah as the final two witnesses. 
  
• The unholy alliance of Lucifer, his son and their story.
  
• The earth’s governments consolidated under one ruler.
  
• The Nation of Israel having to turn back the pages of time and deal with a God sent prophet again.
  

This writing also covers the private thoughts of world leaders as they try to grasp what is occurring in the world. This includes Russia, China, European Union Countries, Iran, America, and Israel. The concern they all have of consolidation of power of kingship into one world leader.    

We also insert current and projected future technology into his writing. This includes technologies of God, Lucifer, and humanity. We based the technology used on our current scientific knowledge, and some current scientific theories. In addition, the hundreds of direct technology references in the Bible itself. 

Realize this book, as all prophecy books are fiction. Yes, they are fiction. What various Authors are writing has not occurred. All books on this subject are, classified as science fiction, myth, and prophecy.

Now you may ask, will Tribulation unfold like this book or other similar books written? I nor you or they know what will actually happen. Only God and his Son Jesus know. Us humans well, we can only wonder. 

However, this fiction so far has done some great things. The emails from readers are wonderful; they all have the same theme. I am trying harder to be a good Christian. Therefore, if it is only one who finds comforts in Jesus or many, that is all that counts. 

May God bless each and every, one of you,

Samuel David
