Revelation 11

John is told to measure the temple of God, and two witnesses prophesy for one thousand two hundred and sixty days. The beast from the bottomless pit kills the witnesses, but after three and a half days the Spirit of life from God enters them and they ascend to heaven. The seventh trumpet sounds, and great voices in heaven declare, "The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of His Christ."
