The two witnesses ( Revelation 11:5 ) had used fire to
destroy their enemies.
The false prophet was using an illusory pseudo-fire to
impress the earth dwellers that his power was just as great.
[ Gaia ( Mr. G ) being interviewed on radio by the senator - Mr. G is lying about how hot the fire used by the false prophets is.
( Mr. G stood in for the false prophet on the lesser radio shows ) ]

Revelation 13:13 and 14
And he ( the false prophet )
doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from
heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of
those miracles which he had power to do ...
[ two earth dwellers discussing what they heard Mr. G and the senator lying about on the radio ]

note - In Revelation 4 Today, Elijah and Enoch are presented as the two witnesses - John the Apostle is another possibility.
