Revelation 10:11
Excerpted from: Revelation 10 and the Laodicean Church

Prophesy again? In the context of this chapter, when did John ever prophesy? You don't know the answer to that, do you? Well, within the context of the chapter, he did prophesy. I mean, within the time limits of the context of the chapter he did prophesy. But on the surface it appears that he did not prophesy. But what about those seven thunders? Prophesying here does not mean the foretelling of events, but it means inspired speaking. Speaking under the inspiration of God. Preaching!

Now John himself was not going to preach. Do you understand that? How old was John? He was almost a hundred years old by this time. He was about ready to die. The ones who were going to preach again were the Two Witnesses. They would preach at a much later time—remember John, 95 AD. They are going to preach at a much later time as a type of John. And they were going to say again what had previously been prophesied before.

Who did the prophesying? The seven thunders did the prophesying! They did the things John was not allowed write. Now remember, what was the nickname that Jesus gave to John and his brother James? They were "the Sons of Thunder!" What did James and John do? What did they preach? They preached the gospel of the Kingdom of God! John is to prophesy again, but he was not literally going to—any more than John the Baptist was literally Elijah! John the Baptist was in the spirit and power of Elijah, he was a type of Elijah. The Two Witnesses are going to be a type of John and James—"the sons of Thunder!"
