When I first started learning about Bible prophecy almost 25 years ago I would read that everyone on planet earth would see the dead bodies of the 2 witnesses because of cable and satellite television. And I believed that but would think to myself that not everyone on planet earth has a TV or a satellite dish or has access to cable or satellite services and even with the rise of PC's and the internet again I would think not everyone on planet earth has a computer and access to the internet. And whenever I would read these words from Revelation 11:10 "And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another" It always made me think that the 2 witnesses would be killed around Christmas time. Fast forward 25 years now and there are more cell phones on planet earth than people. And in 2019 the number of mobile phone users is forecast to reach 4.68 billion. The number of mobile phone users in the world is expected to pass the five billion mark by 2019. In 2016, an estimated 62.9 percent of the population worldwide already owned a mobile phone. So with all of the cell phones in existence right now theoretically every single last person on planet earth right now could see the dead bodies of the 2 witnesses and send each other gifts at the same time ! How close are we !!!
