Doves,
Is there major significance to the fact that there are two Purim events this year?
Should we be on a “high biblical prophetic alert” because of this ?
My answer is a resounding yes due to what I believe I found hidden in Psalm 119 which I shared with you recently. That being that Psalm 119 appears to lay out the time line for the last week of Daniel's 70 weeks or the complete time line for the 7 year tribulation period.
My research from analyzing Psalm 119 indicates that the ministry of the two witnesses will begin around 1 March 2019 and will continue for 168 weeks terminating at the midpoint of the 7 year period. This due to how and where the term “Thy Word”is used in that Psalm. Complete explanation linked here...

What does this Psalm 119 aspect have to do with Purim?
I believe this years Purim irregularity combined with what I found in Psalm 119 frames a very important biblical window. We have two celebrations of Purim, one on 18 February as “a minor one” due to 2019 being a Jewish leap year and the regular celebration of Purim on 20 March.
These two events happen 30 days apart and they also happen on periods of super moons.
Are these two super moons signs from God?
Is the 30 day window also biblical or a biblical sign?
If you remember from my other posts I indicated that it appeared from the revelations gleaned in Psalm 119 that the two witnesses would show up on or near 1 March 2109 to start their 3.5 year ministry. And the bible indicates that the antichrist also shows up in this same time frame.....same biblical window.
Zechariah 11 speaks to this when God says he will dismiss three shepherds within a months time and replace these with a “foolish shepherd”.
A biblical months time is 30 days.....there are 30 days between the two Purim events this year.
There are two super moons appearing like bookends on each side of this 30 day window. I believe I have read that these super moon events can signal death. Are these two moon events signaling the death of these three shepherds and the arrival of the two witnesses within this month window as spoken of in Zechariah 11?
If so, it would also signal the arrival of the “foolish shepherd”....the antichrist.
I went into great detail in my other posts as to who these three shepherds were that appear in Zechariah 11 and who the “foolish shepherd” the antichrist will be as well. Explained here.....

With all of this in mind, here is what I am advocating now as per scripture.
Within a one month period from 18 February 2019 to 20 March 2019 (this being the bookends of the Purim period)...... three popes will be “dismissed” by God as per Zechariah 11. Francis and Benedict will die (two deaths) and the third shepherd / third pope that being John Paul II whose body / shell has been preserved all these years in a cryogenic chamber will also be dismissed from that environment only to be indwelled / taken over by a demonic spirit that arises from the bottomless pit. The combination of this shell of John Paul II and the demonic spirit from the bottomless pit will comprise the “foolish shepherd”....the antichrist.
And.... as I have detailed before in great length....two ministries will then (during this month period) begin. One good and one evil. The two end time witnesses dressed in sackcloth will begin preaching the gospel of Jesus to the whole world with the exception of the RCC for 3.5 years. And the antichrist will start his evil agenda of creating a one world government / religion / monetary system and complete control of power.....military power. (more on him and that power with another post this week)
Being that we are talking about Purim.....isn't this whole scenario I just described above also described perfectly in the Book of Ester.
First a reminder from God in Ecclesiastes 1......
….“that which has been is what will be,
…..that which is done is what will be done,
…..And there is nothing new under the sun.
…..Is there anything of which it may be said,
…..“see this is new”?
…..It has already been in ancient times before us.”
Let's then look at the players in the Book of Ester and who they symbolize and how the story line mirrors that of what I have proposed will soon happen.
King Ahasuerus......symbolizes God the Father
Ester.........symbolizes the Holy Spirit and Holy Spirit intervention but also symbolizes “a great witness” for her people
Mordecai.....symbolizes Jesus, crown, royal rob, no power to great power under the king but also symbolizes “a great witness” for his people
Haman.....symbolizes the antichrist....on a mission to destroy the Jews
Bigthan and Teresh....symbolize the two people who were removed to enable the reign of a third person.
So as the story line in Ester goes tribulation or a period of trouble sets in or begins when a plan is made by Haman (antichrist) to kill all the Jews. Is this not a shadow of what is to soon come? A period of tribulation....Yes
Purim has always signaled the start or a period of tribulation. So what better time to start the final 7 year period than.....within the coming 30 day period of Purim? It’s kickoff....
Then, in both scenarios past and present there are two groups that are on a concurrent mission at that same time. Haman orchestrates an evil plan to eradicate the Jews throughout the whole kingdom (the whole known world) all 127 providence's from India to Ethiopia. Ester and Mordecai at the same time counter this evil plan by fasting and prayer and passing the word while being dressed in sackcloth.
This mirrors the two end time witnesses ministry where they will be in intercession for the Jews (and Gentiles) and will also be dressed in sackcloth. Revelation 11:3
And it mirrors the antichrist who will be on a mission to eradicate God the Father's covenant people, the Jews.
Note from the text in the Book of Ester that Haman, the villain, doesn't come into power or this tribulation period doesn't begin until two others are displaced........killed by order of the King. These are Bigthan and Teresh.
Will this aspect of the story line be projected forward to the present as well? Yes, I believe so.
As per Zechariah 11 God the Father (the King) will “dismiss”(bring there lives to an end) three shepherds, two of which are alive and represent Bigthan and Teresh. Those being Pope Francis and Pope Benedict. When they are dismissed the antichrist will rise to power above all others just as Haman did. Haman had great power and only answered to the King as will the antichrist. There will be no human on earth that the antichrist will answer to.
So....bottom line, I expect the arrival of not only the two end times witnesses sent to earth by God the Father but also the arrival of the antichrist after we see the deaths of two popes all of which will happen between 18 February and 20 March 2019. This will signal the start of the 7 year period of time known as the tribulation period.
