ZECHARIAH 14

[jeffweeder]

So you don't believe in a millennium then?

Not a future one.
I see Jesus as the first resurrection of Rev 20 and this parallels the teaching in Jn 5 ...,

24 “I assure you and most solemnly say to you, the person who hears My word [the one who heeds My message], and believes and trusts in Him who sent Me, has (possesses now) eternal life [that is, eternal life actually begins—the believer is transformed], and does not come into judgment and condemnation, but has passed [over] from death into life.

25 I assure you and most solemnly say to you, a time is coming and is [here] now, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear it will live.

Rev 20
6 Blessed (happy, prosperous, to be admired) and holy is the person who takes part in the first resurrection; over these the second death [which is eternal separation from God, the lake of fire] has no power or authority, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and they will reign with Him a thousand years.

Rev 1
5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful and trustworthy Witness, the Firstborn of the dead, and the Ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who [always] loves us and who [has once for all] freed us [or washed us] from our sins by His own blood (His sacrificial death)— 6 and formed us into a kingdom [as His subjects], priests to His God and Father—to Him be the glory and the power and the majesty and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Yes amen its a current reality

God’s Holy People in the Last Days:
Isaiah 62:1-12... ..They will be called the holy people; the Redeemed of the Lord.

Daniel 8:23-26 In the last days, when sin is most prevalent, a powerful leader will arise. He will succeed in whatever he does, and will take control of the mighty nations and of God’s holy people. By cunning and deceit, his plans will come about and cause great harm to many when they least expect it. He will challenge even the Prince of Princes, but then will be broken, but not by human hand.
This prophecy tells of events to happen in the distant future.

Daniel 7:23-25 The explanation given is: There will be a 4th kingdom, one that will encompass the whole earth. Initially ten rulers will govern it, but another leader will take over all this kingdom. He will defy the Most High God and will conquer the holy ones of God.

Revelation 13:7 The ‘beast’ is allowed to wage war on God’s people and to defeat them….Vividly described in Zechariah 14:1-2

Daniel 11:32 By plausible promises he will win over those who will violate the Covenant, but some will resolutely keep their faith.
The Covenant here, is the one between God and His people, for their protection.

The treaty, the 7 year peace agreement of Daniel 9:27, is between the Leader of the One World Govt, and the leaders of the Christian nation of Beulah. It will be broken by the leader of the OWG after the first 3 1/2 years. Daniel 11:31



These Bible prophesies are proof that God’s holy people, His chosen elect people; all those true born again Christian believers; the One people of God, Ephesians 4:4-6, are not removed from the earth, as some would like to think, but are present in the holy Land during the last few years of this age.

As we see in Daniel 11:32 and in Zechariah 14:2, they divide into two groups, one remaining in the holy Land and the other goes away. Revelation 12:6-17 again shows these two groups; the faithful ones who refused the peace treaty with the leader of the World Govt, as described in Daniel 11:32-35, are taken to a place of safety: Revelation 12:6 & 14, and those who did agree; Isaiah 28:14-15, must remain: Revelation 12:17

The fact of all the righteous Christians living in all of the Holy Land, before the Return of Jesus, is well prophesied in all of the Bible. Many do not see it because of false teachings and not comprehending the truth of how Christians are now to be the recipient’s of the promises of God, given initially to ethnic Israel, but now available to all true believers. 2 Corinthians 1:20

We Christians look forward to being at last the people God has always wanted in His holy Land.
That is our promise and our great privilege; to be alive to participate at this critical time of mankind’s history.

Amen.

Jesus was part of the first resurrection, sure, but he was the "firstfruits" of the first resurrection. Where there are 'first" fruits there will be latter fruit, of the same first resurrection, that is what the church will be and what those of Rev. 20:4 are identified as part of. There isn't a resurrection timing at Rev. 20:4, it's just identifying where they came from which would have been a few years earlier. Just like the 2nd coming, there is the part in the air and the part at Armageddon, w/ a little time between the two. If you've ever had a garden or fruit trees you'll know what I'm talking about. All the fruit or veggies just don't pop up in one day and the harvest is done. Any singular season, it's a continuous harvest until it's done which can take weeks or months. The last few fruits and veggies are the latter fruits of the same harvest that started weeks or months ago.

ZECHARIAH 14​

Many folks believe that this chapter adds to the knowledge about the second coming of the Lord, but I disagree. I believe this chapter and Ez. 38 each give us a look at the time at the end of the millennium. I think the confusion begins w/ vs. 1 where it says”Behold, the day of the Lord cometh”. A lot of folks think that everything in the scriptures that speak of the “day of the Lord” all occur in “one day”, however, I believe scripture shows that it lasts for over a 1000 yrs. and the whole of the millennium is part of the DoL as well. There are at least two times in the OT where the phrase DOL is referring to something that has already occurred and that is when Babylon conquered Egypt, Jer. 46:2, 10 and Ez. 30:3-6 around 500bc. If the future Dol is 1000 yrs.+ then it’s likely that different aspects of it throughout its duration can all seem to be described as “when the day of the Lord cometh”.

Several things occur during the DOL that could each be described as a coming. The signs before it begins, the days of the trumpet judgments, the rapture, the days of the vial judgments, Armageddon, the day of the eternal “triumphal entry” into Jerusalem when born again Israel escorts Jesus as King of Kings, Lord of Lord and as Messiah into Jerusalem when they fulfill Dan. 9:24 by bringing in “everlasting righteousness,” the millennial reign and the final battle for Jerusalem when satan is loosed after the 1000 yrs.

I think this is the case w/ Zech. 14. The main spiritual purpose of the 70th week is for Israel to repent of their national sins (Dan. 9:24) and accept Christ as Messiah on a national level. The physical aspect of it involves the judgment upon all the unrepentant in the world.

Zech. 12 & 13 portray the physical salvation of Judah (Armageddon), the spiritual salvation of Judah and other events including the refining of the 1/3 of Israel that will enter the millennium retaining their humanity. I believe Zech. 14 (along w/ Ez. 38) starts w/ satan’s return after the thousand years to destroy Jerusalem after the as described in Rev. 20:8-9.

Then we come to Zech. 14:3 - “Then shall the Lord go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.” If you were to ask anyone today what historic battle that is referring to, no one has a clue. While the Lord was with Israel in all their victories in the Promised Land, there isn’t one recorded where the Lord “fought” the battle for them. But that is exactly how Armageddon will be described and it will be so memorable that the folks at the end of the millennium will still remember it well. This is written as if it was an event that happened many years ago which will be the reality of Armageddon.

So let’s take that as our starting point and then put vss. 4-5 in their proper perspective and put them in at the end of the millennium. There is nothing in these verses that hint of a descent and a landing, that is all presumed by the reader. If Jesus was already here and had been for a thousand yrs., it will be a short walk to the Mount of Olives and Jesus will know that the Father is about to destroy those armies once and for all.

There is no prophecy that has Jesus setting foot on Earth prior to Armageddon so the belief that this is how Jesus saves His people from Armageddon defies logic especially as that is already prophesied in Rev. 12:14 and it’s not described as ‘running” into a valley, no they are running towards planes and we were recently shown how that would be accomplished when we departed Afghanistan in a hurry, but don’t worry I’m sure God will do a better job than Biden did!

Now most of us believe that after the millennium will be when the New Heaven and the New Earth are brought about and the NJ descends to hover above the earth. Interestingly enough, vss. 6-8 describes that time and it echoes the prophecy of Rev. 22:2-5 but then it goes back in vss. 9-11 and gives us a little more detail about the millennial era. Verse 11 is a reminder of the millennial prophecy, imo, of Ez. 38:11. Verse 12 seems to go back to how satan and his armies will be destroyed in Rev. 20:9. Verses 13-21 brings us back towards life in the millennium.

Now I agree this seems to be a lot of going back and forth in time but when you consider the reality of “telescoping” prophecy where the prophets see the mountaintop of events but not the valleys of time between them and many times they are not given in the order they occur. The book of Daniel has a little history, present time, near future and far future in it. The timings of the prophesies in Isaiah are all over the place going back and forth pretty consistently and Ezekiel does so as well, so Zechariah is not alone in this.



I think if people understand this and remove it from their premill series of events they will get a clearer picture about the timing of the rapture and the events of the 70th week.

Zechariah 14 describes Israel going through the Great Tribulation. Last week of Daniel equates to Time of Gentiles 1 week = 7 years = 2,520 prophetic years. 2/3 of Israel will not make it through the Great Tribulation and Israel 1/3 will come into belief which will trigger the return of Christ to subdue all of Israel's enemies once and for all.

There's no such thing as a year for a day "principle". When the bible speaks of a case like Dan. 9:24-27, it tells you. It would make no sense seeing as the first 69 yrs. were historically proven as fulfilled w/ the year for a day understanding of 483 yrs. to all of a sudden change the 70th week to mean something different other than 7 yrs. I also don't believe that Zech. 14 is the GT or that it's upon Israel, I believe it's upon the church, thus the cause of God's wrath in the first place.

The genius of the Hebrew language is things can mean differently based on their context. Book of Revelation states 7th king proceeds for a short time. Does it not make sense 8th king proceeds for a long time? If so 7 years is not a long time. Also kingdoms are rising and falling in Book of Revelation which simply cannot happen in 7 years. In addition Apostates of the Roman Empire (Ten horned beast) persecuted the pristine church from 538 to 1798 = 1260 years = 42 months. Bible says God will gather all nations against Jerusalem so Zechariah 14 is about Israel going through the Great Tribulation

There are (Two) resurrections on the (Last Day) the righteous are blessed to be in the (First Resurrection) to eternal life, on such the (Second Death) resurrection has no power.

1.) (First Resurrection) To Life
2.) (Second Death) Resurrection To Damnation

Revelation 20:6KJV
Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

The (Last Day) Resurrection Of All Below

Daniel 12:1-2KJV
1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

John 5:28-29KJV
28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

John 6:39-40KJV
39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

1 Corinthians 15:21-24KJV
21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

The (Last Day) Judgement

John 12:48KJV
48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

Except, imo, this is speaking of Rev. 20:9. No, a long time doesn't have to follow a short time which could be as short as 3 months. The kings are representative of the various powers that have controlled Israel throughout history, the last one will be the beast empire. After 70ad Rome is pretty irrelevant concerning prophecy.

There are a thousand years + between the two and to the dead that would seem like a second. The division of time is in your passages, life first, death second, the word "day" in John has several possible meanings and a 24 hr. day is only one of them, it could mean, age, era, etc. and yes the "last day" before the NHNE comes is the 2nd resurrection spoken of in Rev. 20:12-13.

You disregard the scripture before your eyes "Why"?

1.) Daniel 12:1-2 clearly tells the reader the resurrection takes place at the time of great trouble (Great Tribulation) it clearly states the book of life is open (Final Judgement)

2.) John 6:39-40 (The Last Day) resurrection

3.) 1 Corinthians 15:23-24 Jesus returns, the resurrection takes place (Then Cometh The End)

All three are in perfect agreement, Daniel Book of life open, John (The Last Day), 1 Corinthians 15:23-24 (The Cometh The End)

Yes you disregard God's simple words of truth in denial, to falsely Maintain a man made Millennium that will never take place

Before Your Eyes, Clear, Simple, Easy To Understand, And Your In Denial Of This Truth

Daniel 12:1-2KJV
1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

[Trekson]

Dan. 12:1-2..."every one that shall be found written in the book.
2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt." vs. 2 is a true statement but you read into it that both are on the same day, I read it as a thousand yrs. apart. It does not infer either. As part of Jewish tradition and fact, there are ten days between The Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashannah) and The Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur). These are called "the 10 days of awe", it was believed that 'every year" at this time God opened three books in which eveyone's name was written, The Book of Life for the wicked, (this judgement was considered final and that a person would die sometime the next year) The Book of Life for the righteous (these were granted another year of life) and The Book of Life for the in-between (for these judgment was deferred until Yom Kippur, if repentance was sincere and earnest they would be added to the righteousness book and if their repentence was false and insincere they would be added to the wicked book. My point being, there is more than one time the books of judgment will be opened... There are many last days, the last day of the time of the gentiles, the last day of the pre-millennial era, the last day of the 70th week, the last day of the millennium, the last day before the NHNE are revealed. The word "day" in John 6 can mean a literal day but it can also mean a period of time, an age, a while, years, forever, so it's not as cut and dried as you would like it to be. There can easily be a period of a 1000 yrs. between 1 Co. 15:23 and vs. 24. The 10 days of awe is, most likely, will be the time at the end of the 70th week when Christ will perform the sheep and goat judgment of Matt. 25.

 

[ewq1938]

Not a future one.

Technically you do believe in a future Millennium because you think that Millennium is now, and tomorrow (future) and further into the future for an unknown amount of time. Amill's "thousand years" can be tens of thousands of years, 500,000 years or millions and billions of years long. That is much more of a future Millennium than Premill's believe in.

You are not making any sense.
Your idea of the millennium starts at Jesus second coming and my idea of the millennium ends at his second coming.

 

[ewq1938]

You are not making any sense.
Your idea of the millennium starts at Jesus second coming and my idea of the millennium ends at his second coming.

I was talking about how future the Millennium is. The Amill Mill is more a part of the future than the Premill one is due to the unknown and unpredictable length of a extremely long "thousand years".

BTW, the Premill Mill based on Rev 20 does not start at the second coming, but after it is completed.

 

[Timtofly]

You are not making any sense.
Your idea of the millennium starts at Jesus second coming and my idea of the millennium ends at his second coming.

Is not the Second Coming future?

The point was made that most premil only see another 1,000 years, and creation is handed back to God.


Amil's Second Coming could be a billion years away. Because a billion equals a thousand to Amil. Premil would say a billion would not equal "any" time. A billion years would still be a billion years, if that is what Scripture stated.

 

[jeffweeder]

Thats a thousand years longer than Amill lol

Amil's Second Coming could be a billion years away.

Really?
However long the second coming takes, it will all be over according to Amill and not according to premill.
Please tell me you understand that.

 

[Spiritual Israelite]

I was talking about how future the Millennium is. The Amill Mill is more a part of the future than the Premill one is due to the unknown and unpredictable length of a extremely long "thousand years".

That COULD be the case if the world goes on for at least another thousand years, but I doubt that it will. But, I think the point was that with Premill the entire thousand years is yet future while that is obviously not the case for Amill.

BTW, the Premill Mill based on Rev 20 does not start at the second coming, but after it is completed.

I'm sure Jeff is well aware of that just as all of us here are. He was speaking generally.

 

[Timtofly]

Thats a thousand years longer than Amill lol

Really?
However long the second coming takes, it will all be over according to Amill and not according to premill.
Please tell me you understand that.

The Millennium is only one period of time. Amil's "millennium" is already twice as long as premil's.

What will be all over?

The erroneous belief system called Amil will definitely be over, at the Second Coming. One of the first works burned up per 2 Peter 3.

 

[jeffweeder]

What will be all over?

The old heaven and the old earth will be over at the second coming.


Matt 24
35 Heaven and earth [as now known] will pass away, but My words will not pass away.

36 “But of that [exact] day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son [in His humanity], but the Father alone.
37 For the coming of the Son of Man (the Messiah) will be just like the days of Noah.


What happened to the wicked in the days of Noah Tim?

Restoration of all things will take place on a NHNE

Act 3
19 So repent [change your inner self—your old way of thinking, regret past sins] and return [to God—seek His purpose for your life], so that your sins may be wiped away [blotted out, completely erased], so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord [restoring you like a cool wind on a hot day]; 20 and that He may send [to you] Jesus, the Christ, who has been appointed for you, 21 whom heaven must keep until the time for the [complete] restoration of all things about which God promised through the mouth of His holy prophets from ancient time.
22 Moses said, ‘The Lord God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your countrymen; you shall listen to Him and obey everything He tells you. 23 And it will be that every person that does not listen to and heed that Prophet will be utterly destroyed from among the people.’
