The Sign Of Jonah Part-1


The two Prophets Jonah and Elias are the witnesses, which are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth, Revelations 11. These two witnesses were given the place of revealing the birth or

Fascinating treatment of the subject. Glad I found it.
Just today was listening to KWAVE FM 107.0 (available on the internet) and mention was made of "Simon bar Jonah" and it hit me, Jesus made a very real sober, matter of fact reference to Simon Peter's lineage. The fact that a new calling for him, to the Genitles, with much protesting, happened during a vision, which Peter on Pentecost anticipated under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, in his reference to "your young men shall see visions", from the prophecy of Joel, which Simon Peter intended to use to explain the most amazing spectacle to folks in Jerusalem from all nations for the feast of booths followed by Pentecost, the spectacle and sign gift of Speaking in other tongues. Joel's prophesy also explained the Spirit being poured out on all flesh, which implies even Gentile flesh, and flesh of men from many nations.
It occurred to me that there were lots of topical coincidences between Peter and his ancestor Jonah, including close encounters with storms at sea, danger of sinking and drowning, and a prophet who would be going to both Jews and Gentiles, sleeping in a boat during a life threatening storm. Funny the Scribes and Pharisees were so incensed (burned up?) about Shaul/Paul talking about God sending him to the Gentiles, when they had to be familiar with the prophecies of Jonah and Joel!
Have to admit I haven't read part three yet, brother, as I had to let you know someone appreciated what the Lord was showing you about those two relatives and others.
Need to know: When you talked of Jonah and Elijah as if they were there with Jesus, did you mean the same Holy Spirit that filled and used both, continuing their ministry through progeny in Jesus's day? Similar to Paul's concept that the true Spiritual children of Abraham, by faith in God's atoning work through His Son Jesus the Christ (Yeshua ha Meshiah)on Calvary/Golgotha/Mt. Moriah. If not, how did you mean the earler prophets were there in Jesus's day?
Without some explanation, someone might infer, (though it didn't seem you were implying), that Jonah and Elijah somehow reincarnated in two disciples. I'm sure that's not what you meant, but in what way were Jonah and Elijah there?

When I spoke of Jonah and Elijah in Jesus day I ment Jonah's name was used in the name of John, AKA (John the Baptist) not that he was Jonah in person or that he was Elijah in person, but noting the ministry being birthed in Jonah the name had to be connected to Jonah's name so that said ministry would not change hands or names but stay under the name of Jonah, in whom the ministry was birthed.The spirit of Elijah rested on John the Baptist, not that he was Elijah in person, as he was asked by the pharrisses whether he was Elijah and John said no I'm not.
Elijah was present in Jesus's day in spirit. Jonah's name was used but he wasn't present in spirit. The ministry birthed in Jonah must stay under the name of Jonah to be finished by Jonah in the tribulation period. This is why John the Baptist and Simon Peter (Bar-jona) were choosen leaders along with Elijah in the startings of the foundation of the new Covenant. Church.
