This is how you solve it then, but where in the Bible can you support this view?
Revelation 13:6-7 YLT
6) and it did open its mouth for evil-speaking toward God, to speak evil of His name, and of His tabernacle, and of those who in the heaven tabernacle,
7) and
there was given to it to make war with the saints, and to overcome them, and there was given to it authority over every tribe, and tongue, and nation.
If these witnesses are "holy ones", then the beast is given power to overcome them.
Apollyon (Scarlet Colored Beast) kills the two-witnesses, not the Anti-Christ, but that's not the overall point anyway. To be given power over something or someone means you have that power all the time, but the Two-witnesses dominate the Beast, they are the ones who PRAY DOWN God's plagues, Just like Moses brought forth God's word of the coming plagues in Egypt. Why do you think the world hates them so much? Supposedly people send gifts to each other when they die, I think that's just prose telling us the whole world is elated when they die. But you saying that the Beast has power over them makes zero sense. The two-witnesses are 1185 days into
BRINGING God's Plagues onto these Beast kingdoms which will kill billions of people, and no one can harm them, PERIOD, lest they be killed themselves trying to, thus they PRAY and an Asteroid strikes
(First Four Trumps) then they pray and Demons torture men with the Mark of the Beast for 5 months
(1st Woe), then they Pray and Angels kill 1/3 of all men who have the Mark of the Beast
(2nd Woe), then they pray and the 3rd Woe Comes quickly, BUT......only then does God allow them to die at the exact moment that their Ministry is over(1260 days), they have prayed for the 7th Trump to sound and the 3rd Woe to fall, but they die first, why? Their Ministry is over, did Jesus "REALLY DIE" ?
You can't kill God,
these Two-witnesses can not be touched until their ministry is over after 1260 days, which starts 75 days before the Beast comes to power and then they die 1185 days into the Beasts reign as the Beast which like I stated above, starts 75 days after the Two-witnesses comes on the scene, thus the Beast still has 75 days to rule after they die.
So, you are telling me the Beast can not touch them for 1185 days but "he has POWER over them?" Come on man, that's an illogical reply !! God only allows them to be killed to give us a Juxtaposition unto the Beasts TIMELINE, that's why they die after the exact length of time the Beast will serve, on day 1260,
thus we can figure out ALL THE TIMELINES via simple math. Since the two-witnesses show up 75 days before the Beast and thus have to die 75 days before the Beast dies, we therefore know the 3rd Woe lasts for exactly 75 days.
With people all around the globe watching on live TV, the Two-witnesses pray down all of these plagues onto the world,
(these people will not understand that its Angels slaying them and bringing plagues against them) so the world
(Vial #6) would never gather to battle with the objection to try and kill all of the Jews if the two-witnesses were still alive, because the worls is afraid of their powers.
(the Two-witnesses were just Jews in their mind, they probably will not even understand they were Elijah and Moses in Glorious bodies) But because they see the Two-witnesses as "their biggest problem" who has "TERORIZED THE WHOLE WORLD" and then we they see them die, the whole world becomes elated an d will gain confidence after the first 5 Vials are poured out because everything all of the sudden will SUDDENLY STOP, this allows Satan via the Anti-Christ to GATHER all the Kings (leaders) from the whole world to try and take out Israel, but Jesus shows up at Armageddon instead foiling their plans (SMILE, we win).
If you saw millions or billions of humans die at "two peoples hands"
(and whatsoever they announced came to pass) and some quasi leader
(President etc.) told you lets go make war with these two men, after seeing their Egyptian like Plagues on mankind would you go to war? I doubt it, but after you see them DIE and lay in the streets 3 1/2 days
(God could have taken them up right away, He's giving the evil men false hope) then and only them might you say, BRAVO..........Lets go get the rest of them, those two "FREAKS" are dead !!
You can't say they have power over the Two-witnesses, that's why I point out God only allows the Two-witnesses to die, IMHO, in order to juxtapose THE TIMELINES, and to give the world COURAGE to go to war with Israel.
God allows men to be deceived because they want to be deceived, thus He sends confusion unto them.
