Satellite in Zechariah

<< < (2/2)

Hi Joyce (joyful 1),

Much of Zechariah seems to be a description of false shepherds leading astray and fleecing the flock, making merchandise of the people. This bit about the ephaph and the flying roll does show the broadcast of the evil messages and doctrines that are being sent throughout the world, their "resmblence" being shown in the midst of every house that will receive the image of them (the lying messengers of Babylon).

I can see the measure symbolism as a promise that the iniquity within the messengers and the believers in them is being dutifully recorded and weighed by God and a fair price (punishment/stripes) will be remitted.

Zechariah says to "look up" this basket (with the harlot within) will be placed between the earth and the heavens, that is where satellites are, only this one (what it represents) is particularly evil.

The entire book of Zechariah is fascinating, speaking (as so many OT books) right to the called and (by extension) chosen of the Lord as the world religious and secular "waxes worse and worse."

His Peace and Wisdom to you,

Joe

Hello Joe

Thank you so much for sharing this :)...it is spine chillingly exciting :D.....Luke 21 : 28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

I went to the Message translation and got even more excited! ;D.. :D  Here it is....

Zec 5 : 1

I looked up again and saw - surprise! - a book on the wing! A book flying!
The Messenger-Angel said to me, "What do you see now?"
I said, " I see a bookflying, a huge book - thirty feet long and fifteen wide!"
He told me, "This book s the VERDICT GOING OUT WORLDWIDE against THIEVES AND LIARS.  The first half of the book disposes of everyone who steals, the second half takes care of everyone who lies. I LAUNCHED IT. (When I read I LAUCHED IT, I see the SOVEREIGNTY OF OUR GOD!)  - Decree of God-of-the-Angel-Armies- "and so it will fly into the house of every thief and every liar. It will land in each house and tear it down, timbers and stones."

This is from, Word on the Street translation....

Zec 7:8-10 God says to me again, "This is what I say, 'Give people a fair deal: give each other some breaks 'cos there's genuine love between you. Don't rip off the disadvantaged, the foreigners or the poor. Don't let negative thoughts about people fester in your souls."
Zec 8: 9-11 "You old guys who remember what the couriers said the day the HQ foundations were checked off as finished; get your hands dirty; harden them up - there's a place needs building! Up till now there were no jobs. Who can run a business when society's disintegrating into gang rule? But from today the survivors get a new deal," says God. 14-15 God says this; "When your granddads wound me up, I pulled the carpet from under them. But now I'm going to do you good. Don't loose sleep over your future.".............

GOD'S ON HIS WAY. ETA SOON. .....!

Arcturus..... :D....

Hello Arcturus,

You are very welcome, your description of "spine chillingly exciting" is exactly how I felt when this was first brought to my attention the Saturday night of the Conference weekend, I probably only slept 3-4 hours that night and was up at 3:30 the following morning reading the entire book of Zechariah which was a real eye opener, as are all the scriptures but this was truly an epiphany experience.

Thank you for the additional translations as it has given even more texture to this subject.

His Peace and Wisdom to you,

Joe

 8) Cool version. 8)

I loved all this scripture, but nothing convinced me that Paul Crouch can use it to say it is about TBN's satellites!

Hi Gena,

Paul Crouch and Ken Copeland were sitting in the studio with a scale model of this on the coffee table, the amazing part was that they only referenced Zec 5:1 & 5:2, and proceeded to pat themselves on the back so hard I thought they were going to break bones. They claimed the scale model represented the exact size described in Zechariah 5:2, did not seem to be aware of the verse that immediately followed;

Zec 5:3  Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it.

That seems like an apt description of TBN.  ;)

Were their eyes blinded to the verses that followed or were they sure their followers would not check the scriptures or understand them if they did?

His Peace and Wisdom to you,

Joe
