Hello Doves
Zechariah prophesied 3 different time periods
1. The First coming of Christ
2. The Second coming of Christ
3. Zechariah's own time period

Lets begin at the history of his own time period, and the cultural and life situation of that time. This is important that we know the meaning for his time and relate it for a future time.  We look first at what was spoken for his own time. We will look also as to whether it is a combination, because some of the prophecy has more than one meaning. They have a double reference or multiple fulfillments. Yes; it seems a bit complicated, but we must study to show ourselves approved unto God. The Holy Spirit illuminates and is imperative.
We see prophecy of the first coming of Christ.
1. Jesus coming riding on a donkey
2. Jesus being betrayed vs 11 for 30 pieces of silver.
We see prophecy of Jesus coming in 12-13-14, which culminates with the 1000 year reign of Christ, when the Feast of Tabernacles will be celebrated in Jerusalem.
But First; Zechariah is speaking for his own time.
 In 1 Corinthians 10:6, 11 and Romans 15 tells us the Old Testament was written for The Church as well as the Jews. Understand first and foremost the Church IS NOT Israel. What ever it means for the Church does not negate what it means for Israel. On the contrary it is for Israel first, because it is only when we understand what it means for Israel can we fully understand what it means for the Church.
So we ask:
1. What is for Israel and the Jews?
2. What is for the Church?
3. What is for both?
It is called apocalyptic, much like the book of Daniel, and most of Ezekiel and much like Revelation, which is the New Testament apocalyptic.
When we read apocalyptic scripture we must ask ourselves;
1. What is literal?
2. What is symbolic?
3. What is both?
4. What is for Israel?
5. What is for the Church?
6. What is for both?
7. The first coming
8. The second coming
9. His own time
10. A combination
Unless we understand Zechariah we will not understand Revelation, and unless we understand Revelation we will not understand how to prepare for the coming of Jesus.
After Prayer, the most important principal in understanding biblical prophecy, end times prophecy, is history! Unless we understand what did happen, we will never fully understand what is going to happen.
In our western understanding, prophecy is a prediction and a fulfillment. Scripturally prophecy is (a pattern) of multiple fulfillments with the final and ultimate fulfillment of which the fulfillments are (shadows) or types.
Zechariah prophesied "Post Captivity" when Israel came back from Babylon. The same age as Haggai, Ezra, and Nehemiah.  The "Post Captivity Prophets."
Zechariah strongly resembles Revelation to Daniel and Job. In all these books we see the eternal linked to the temporal. This' meaning, we see a connection between events transpiring on the earth, through time space and history, with what is happening in heaven.
In Job we see Satan accusing Job before the throne in heaven. In Zechariah we see Satan before the throne accusing Zerubbabel, and Jesus. He is showing something we see in Revelation, in Daniel, and in Job.
"We wrestle not against flesh and blood." The things that are happening here on earth in time, and in the oppositions we face, are a reflection of a conflict happening in heaven, between God and Satan. Between light and darkness, between good and evil. The Lord and his angels lead by Michael, and Satan and his demonic spirits, and fallen angels.
This' is what we see in the writing of Zechariah. A connection of the eternal and the temporal.
It was predicted the Jews go into captivity in 525 BC, the people rejected the warning  "To Repent" according to Joel, Isaiah, Micah, Jeremiah and finally Ezekiel. Isaiah and Jeremiah predict the captivity would be 70 years and Daniel reports. After the 70 years Israel returns from Babylon. The Ten northern tribes went into Assyrian Captivity in 720-721 BC. Some came back with the tribes of Judah and Benjamin after the Captivity, but only a small number returned. A large number remained living outside Israel. Among those that did come back were the prophets Haggai, Ezra, Nehemiah, Zechariah.
Haggai, Ezra and Nehemiah are "key" to seeing Jerusalem restored and the Temple rebuilt.
They had opposition from the pagans and from the reluctants of the people themselves who were more "concerned with their own lives and personal interests," rather than restoring the house of God.
These three prophets had this to deal with. Zechariah shows us what is happening in heaven at the same time. Apocalyptic  means " revealing."
There is NO new revelation, NO new doctrine. It' is all written in scripture.
Can you see these events happening in our own time today?

The closer we get to the time of the return of Jesus, THE CURTAIN IS LIFTED MORE AND MORE, and the faithful Church will SEE more and more clear the  UNVAILING of prophecy pertaining to Jesus return.

The books of Revelation, Ezekiel, Daniel, Zechariah, The Apocalyptic Literature will become more clear BEFORE Jesus comes. While at the SAME time we are also told that the FINAL Church "Before" he returns is "The Laodicea" in Revelation 3:14 "They" were blind and Jesus [warns] them to buy save to anoint their eyes that they may SEE.
Daniel tells us that NONE of the wicked will understand.
When the anti-Christ arrives on the seen, "the wicked" will NOT understand.
In These' last days WE need the understanding of the scriptures and what is happening in light of the scriptures, which is "comprehending prophecy" in light of the word of God. IT'S' predictions will be a "barometer" of faithfulness, by which understanding is a gage. The faithful Church will understand more clearly as "these" prophecies are REVEALED.
The harlot and apostate Church will understand LESS and LESS. For the Curtain WILL be lifted More and More as these days approach!
For the HARLOT Church, the curtain will go down, and They' will see less and less.

There are denominations which a generation ago, who started out faithful, but are today less knowledgeable of apocalyptic events. Their' lamp is going out, and they have no more oil and will NOT be able to see that which is revealed to the Faithful Church.
These' Churches base their doctrine on experiences which have there base in the occult and Jewish mysticism, by which they falsely IMAGINE to be The Holy Spirit. Why? Because they are understanding  the Word of God, less and less.

Satan is raising up false teachers and false prophets to draw us away from the truth of God, in order that those who have itching ears will follow after for "the experience," rather than remaining in the Word of God.

Jesus told us in Matthew 24 to be ALERT and WATCH for these prophecies.
So....be careful little ears what you hear from these false teachers and prophets. We' either listen to Christ or listen to false teachings. We cannot follow both. Why? Because "the curtain of revealing" will go down and you will be among the harlot Church. Remember the wicked will not see.
Today the harlot Church unfortunately is the mainstream Pentecostalism and the Baptist Union, Churches  that at one time were faithful, but today are alien to the truth of the Word of God.

Zechariah Lifts the curtain. When these conflicts in Ezra, Nehemiah, and Haggai; Zechariah shows us what is happening at the same time.
One of the reasons is that there will be a New Heaven and New Earth.
Right now Satan has access to The Present One. He accuses the brethren.
He will not be able to do so in the New Heaven. He will be cast down to earth.
Many teach that Satan the dragon will dwell in the antichrist. As was the case with Judas at the betrayal of our Lord Jesus Christ.
 Revelation 13:2 tells us this:
And the dragon (gave) him (antichrist) "his power" and his seat, and great authority.
Stop for just a moment and think on this.
The Father God (gave) all power and authority to his Son, Jesus Christ.
Satan will mimic what God the Father did with his Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ.
In Revelation 20:1-3  John said: I saw [an angel] come down from heaven, having the [key] of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and [bound him] a thousand years, And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set [a seal] upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, [till] the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he [must] be loosed a little season.
Satan is a very powerful angel, and we know from the reading here in Revelation 20, that this angel with the key to the bottomless pit was NOT our Lord. Our Lord is always known in scripture as "The Angel of the Lord." capitalized. Here John said [an angel] and John would have known the difference, because he saw our Lord in the beginning of the chapter.
This event is portrayed in Zechariah 5:5-11, WICKEDNESS is a she and an it, and it is shown to us as "Mystery Babylon the Great, MOTHER OF HARLOTS." in Revelation. All wickedness goes back to Babylon, after the flood of Noah.
Satan wasted NO time getting started again.

The Jews come back from Babylon. We must understand the concept of Babylon, it goes back to Nimrod and the tower of Babel. This' is the false religious system of the world and in league with the worlds political and economic system. It has it's old Testament apex in the Babylonian empire at the time of the Jews Babylonian Captivity. IT also continues into the New Testament.
Peter when writing his first epistle said: "She who was in Babylon greets you." Why? Because when the Babylonian empire fell as Isaiah prophesied in 44 and 45, The priests of Babylon, all 300, migrated in unison to Pergamum, a place where Jesus would say; "a place where Satan dwells, and where Satan's throne is." The Same, is where the alter of Zeus was built, and the Cap Stones are in Berlin. These Babylonian priests came to Pergamum. From Pergamum these mystery religions found their way into the Greco Roman world. Ultimately to the Pantheon of Rome and from there into the Catholic Church.
Roman Catholic eastern orthodox, Free Masonry  etc. Babylon is always the source.
Peter understood this' for his day. John writing about a woman on 7 hills was writing about Rome, identifying her as Babylon. The thing' concerning Babylon is that IT is of prophetic significance that the countries that were at the [center] of world events in the Bible, are at the [center] of world events Once Again.
In our News Papers and on the News it is: Egypt, Israel, Syria, Iraq, Iran. These' are the countries at the [center] Once Again. This' is important!
Babylon is a metaphor for the institutions of the false religions of the world. Babylon is not simply a stragic locality, but an institution of false religious practices.
All these Babylons in Biblical history are a [picture] of Revelation where it is called "Babylon The Great" it is the institution world wide of "ALL" false religions. There will be a confederation of a world political system in league with it's corrupt religious system, "together" with it's economic system, and this' will be " MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH." Rev 17:5.
This' institution will set the stage "for the antichrist."
Daniel tells us the countries that were in the Roman Empire: These' will re-confederate and be [a part] of it. We see it now! Even the City of Rome is now in the News as of August 3, 2015 The Pope said 2016 will be a Jubilee year.

Lets look at Europe; what does Poland a Slavic country, and Ireland a Celtic country, Portugal a Latin country, Australia a Germanic country have in common?  Not language. Not history. Not culture. Not even food.
The commonality is Roman Catholicism. There is an agenda to reverse the reformation to bring Prodestantism back into union with Rome, for the purpose of religious unity.
They' are using it politically to bring about this artificial union.
Some believe this' is the Making of the Iron to cleave to the clay, as Daniel talked about and believe that the EU is the embrio that Daniel saw coming.
BUT, This' is the Babylon of the Captivity. A [picture] of Babylon The Great.
So....now arrives Zechariah. He Lifts the Curtain and shows us what is happening. In Revelation we have chapter 11, and The Two Witnesses.
People ask; Who are these?
Many have their ideas as to who these are, but there are many people that foreshadow those Two Witnesses.
Zechariah shows us two figures in chapter 4 and in verses 11-14 we read that these are the two anointed ones, that stand (by) the Lord of the whole earth.
Some say these two witnesses correspond to Zerrubbabel and to Jesus. NOT Jesus Messiah, but another Yeshuah of the same name who was a descendant of a high priest. "The Priesthood having been lost by the captivity in Babylon.
The other is Zerrubbael a descendant of the line of Davidic Kings, The kings of the house of David. So....these two witnesses stand (by) the Lord.
In the previous chapter 3 of Zechariah verse 1) And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord (This is Jesus) and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him. And the Lord said unto Satan, The Lord rebuke thee, O Satan; even the Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: Is not this a brand plucked out of fire?

We need to understand (sackcloth) is a garment meant for mourning, mentioned 46 times in the KJV The priesthood of Israel were not to mourn, the whole of the people were to mourn for them. The priest bear the sin of the people, and the people bear the sorrow of the Priest.
A picture of this is in Zechariah 12:10 when Israel in the latter days shall mourn for him, their Messiah. ( and they shall look upon [me] whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him.)
There is a Priesthood
There is a Kingship
A priest cannot be King
A King cannot be Priest.
A priest had to be through the line of Aaron, and A king had to be through the line of David.
When a priest tried to be king during the Hazmonean period it brought disaster to the nation. Then there was a king who burned incense in the temple and God smote him with leprosy.
Only ONE can be both King and High Priest. Jesus Christ.
I still do not know who these two witnesses are, but as we draw closer to the return of Jesus, Zechariah is lifting the curtain more and more for the faithful church. And dropping the curtain for the unfaithful church.

In the beginning, God had to intervene 3 times.
1. When Adam and Eve disobeyed in the Garden
2. When the sons of God took wives of all they chose, and giants were born unto them.
3. The tower of Babel, after the flood, in the days of Nimrod.
In the last days before Jesus comes back, we need to understand that these 3 forced interventions  by God are re-capitulated in the book of Revelation.
These three things happen again. Imagine what happened in Noah's day, The Garden, and what transpired at the tower of Babel.
Imagine these three things happening again on a macrocosmic scale.
In Revelation we see all three.
Try to get a mental handle on this.
Ecclesiastes 1:9 tells us: The "thing" that hath been, it is "that" which shall be; and "that" which is done is "that" which shall be done: and there in NO NEW THING under the sun.
The Israelites were as grasshoppers in the site of these giants and so they were in their own eyes. The grapes were so large they had to carry them on a pole.
Genetic tampering all around, the people, and the food.
Are we seeing this done today? Yes
These creatures were eating human flesh in the days of Noah, and the sin of mankind had become so bad that God was forced to intervene. Few there were that was saved out of the old world, eight souls to be exact.
Jesus said in Matthew 7:14  Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and FEW there be that find it.
Revelation 12:9 The dragon and the serpent are cast down, woe to the inhabitants of the earth.
Because these things in Revelation get worse before Jesus comes, God will rescue his faithful church.
Once we get the frame work right, the rest fits into the puzzle. These three things must happen all at once.
1. Our own time
2. The things happening in heaven
3. The things happening on earth.
In the last 50 years more Christians have been persecuted in all of history.
The Lord will cut these days short for the elect.
We ask ourselves; When then is the Rapture?
Job 5:19 KJV   He shall "deliver" thee [in] six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.
Genesis 6 the destruction of the Old world, Noah was delivered, and in chapter 7: 1 KJV And the Lord said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark: for thee have I seen righteous before me "in this generation."
Revelation 6 the seals are broken and after the sixth seal the church is removed, before the 17th verse: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand.
I Thessalonians 3:3 That no man should be moved by "these afflictions:" for yourselves know that "we" are appointed thereunto.
1 Thessalonians 5:9 For God hath not appointed "us" to wrath, but to obtain salvation [by] our Lord Jesus Christ.
The first six seals are afflictions, which Job mentions in Job 5:19-24. These match the afflictions in Revelation six up through the sixth seal.
In seven there shall no evil touch thee.
John is compared to Zechariah, in that his prophecy shows the three things listed above. 1. Our time period, 2. The things in heaven, 3. The things on earth, all happening at the same time.
Zechariah writes these words for Israel: Zechariah 14:5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea ye shall flee, like as ye fled from the "earthquake" in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and "the Lord" my God "shall come," and [all the saints with thee.]
Revelation 6:12-13-14 John writes: And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and lo, there was a great "earthquake;" and the sun became black as "sackcloth" of hair, and the moon became as blood; And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her "untimely" figs, when shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled "together;" and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
We see clearly here the cataclysmic event of the corrupted righteous dead being removed from the earth first, and the saved righteous souls of Israel and the gentile church being removed. And it appeared as if the heaven rolled up like a scroll, and the word "together" reflects our gathering together and our change. When this corruptible flesh is changed to incorruptible. WE shall be like Christ. John 3:2 KJV Beloved, NOW are we the sons of God, and it doth not  yet appear "what we shall be:" but we know that, "when he shall appear, "we shall be like him;" for we shall see him as he is.

Should any of you doubt that [these things] afore mentioned in this letter are present time, and that surely we will not have GIANTS upon the earth in our generation, I ask that you consider this video, which has been poo pooed by scoffers, but is rather an actual BILL for which our congress has [already] voted on.

In the beginning God had to intercede 3 times. In the last days before Jesus comes back, we need to understand that these 3 forced interventions by God are re-capitulated in the book of Revelation. These same 3 things happen again. Imagine what happened in Noah's day, The Garden, and what transpired at the Tower of Babel. Imagine these 3 things happening again on a macrocosmic scale. In Revelation we see all 3.
A very disturbing verse that concerns me very much, and it should concern you also. Jeremiah 7:16 KJV  There is a point of no return. God is saying, Do not pray for these people. He is not talking about the alien, he was talking about his own backslidden people, who would not repent. This builds up until  we get to chapter 14:11 and the Lord repeats it again. Pray not for this people for their good.
Where is the point of no return? when we have people who cross the Rubicon.
No turning back.
We like verses like 2 Corinthians 7:14, If my people who are called by my name shall humble themselves: When does that no longer apply?
We look back at  the bad things done under king Manasseh, " human sacrifices"
(abortion of our unborn babies) God gets to the point that even if we repent, Judgment still has to fall.
So shall it be with this last generation of backsliders.  When the sins go beyond that point, God said there is no turning back. We know it as "the time of the fullness of the gentiles." As the sin of Sodom had reached it's fullness, God had to act. God can delay judgment, even though there is repentance, but  it will be as it was with Judah and the Babylonian Captivity.
We need to remember "the nations get the leaders they deserve."
Manasseh was simply the personification of the sin of the nation. We if we are honest with ourselves, understand this today with our present President Obama.
God sets all kings and rulers in their places. We have godless rulers in England and America. Godless nations that have turned away from the faith of their forefathers, are going to get godless leaders.
The liars in politics is a reflection of what we have standing in the pulpits of mega churches, and mainstream TV churches. In today's reality we now have pro sodomy in our White House, and high Justices, and standing behind the church pulpits. What do we expect? when a Lion story over rides the terrible workings of Planned Parenthood. Yes !  we are doing human sacrifices of our own children. I am so grieved to even type these words to you. Tears fill my eyes at this very moment, when I reflect on the videos being brought forward to the news media.
How can we not see where we are in the whole picture of prophetic reality?
I can only continue to pray for you and ask that you also pray for me, as these days become more and more wicked, and that we may have Zechariah LIFT the curtain more and more.

May the Lord Bless  and keep you always
