E.W. King has now stepped into the Zechariah fray. Of course he alone has the correct interpretation.
When will this dick wagging by the various COG's concerning Zechariah stop? The simple truth is -
who really gives a rats ass! Most COG members could care less.
King writes:
Imagine,
the prophet Zechariah was given a vision in which he saw a “flying
scroll”. This was not just any scroll. This scroll was “open” and
contained judgments. Most biblical scholars admit that this passage is
“difficult to interpret” but they do agree that it is a judgment on
Babylon [“the land of Shinar”]. Shinar was the region containing Babel,
modern Iraq, Akkad, and Calneh. So the message was spread out. Today we
understand that Zechariah was shown the Seven Sealed Scroll mentioned in
Revelation 5:1. Jesus Christ was shown in vision to receive this sealed scroll and to begin to “unseal” it for His church to understand.
Those of you who have studied this revelation know that Jesus Christ breaks open the “seven seals” on the scroll and begins to reveal what happens on earth at the final disclosure of each of the seals revelations. How does this prophecy come down to God’s church today? Zechariah saw it come from the sky. Listen to these other clues that God has “sprinkled” throughout His word to help us understand how it comes to us.
