The Two Witnesses: The Old Testament & the New Testament

Shalom Brothers and Sisters of Christ. There are two witnesses: the Old Testament & the New Testament, both filled with the testimonies of God’s people. In the scriptures, there are many accounts of the Creator speaking to his people, who serve as his witnesses. He has communicated through prophets, their dreams and visions, and the outpouring of his Holy Spirit.

What was spoken through the prophet Joel in the Old Testament was later proclaimed by the apostle Peter in the New Testament. Both passages bear witness to the Creator’s promise to pour out his Spirit upon his people.

Joel 2:28–32 (NLT) — The Lord’s Promise of His Spirit

📜 Old Testament — Joel 2:28–32 (KJV) And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit. And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

📜 New Testament — Acts 2:17–21 (KJV) – Peter Proclaims Joel’s Prophecy

And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

The Old Testament contains the original prophecy, while the New Testament bears witness to its proclamation and fulfillment through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. These scriptures remind us that the Creator has communicated with his people throughout generations. Both passages speak of sons and daughters prophesying, dreams and visions, wonders in the heavens and upon the earth, and the coming Day of the Lord. The Creator is still speaking through his people today, and God’s chosen people are his witnesses. During my awakening journey, as I shared my testimony, God revealed that I had completed a period of 1,260 days. This spanned from the start of my spiritual awakening in July 2012 to the final vision I received after a 40-day fast in 2015. The last dream came to me on December 13, 2015. My mind was blown.

As time progressed something greater was being revealed to me that was happening among our people. I recall the vision of me being caught up in the spirit on July 3, 2012. The holy spirit descended and spoke through me. The message that came through indicated that the 144,000 was NOW awakening and I referenced the 12,000 from the 12 Tribes of Israel. So much occurred over the years and I had received so many dreams and visions. I think all that time the Creator was showing me how the ministry of the two witnesses would be fulfilled. It now makes more since why the heavenly messengers were being sent to me. They were showing me something that I couldn’t quite understand in the beginning.

Prophecy is unfolding differently than most people anticipated or how the church has taught over the years. This is how people will be caught off guard. They have no idea that we are the ones fulfilling the prophecies. The chosen ones here in America are overlooked while Christians are paying close attention to the people in Israel. On my journey, Yahshua gave me a sign through his actions with me. After I was awakened, I was guided to meet someone else. Later, I began to notice how the Most High was pairing people together, whether two brothers working side by side or a husband and wife. On November 28, 2012, a mysterious man appeared, and I remember my brother-in-law saying, “Is that Moses?” He was dressed in fine linen garments, walking down the street, and looked directly at me as I sat in the car. He carried a staff with a red ribbon tied at the top. I was puzzled, unsure of who had sent him or where he came from. To this day, I have no idea who he was. I thought he might have been an angel, because when I looked back, he was gone. Maybe he walked away so quickly that I didn’t notice. I really want to know who that man was. – Seraphim Sophia
