You also mentioned the son of perdition taking his seat. We need to focus on two factors:
1. The vessel in which he uses to appear from the Temple
2. The fact that it will be an image not a human
Son of perdition means "vessel of Satan" sent to destroy. Remember Judas? Satan entered into Judas. Judas became a vessel of Satan, a son of perdition; to be used by Satan to destroy. When the Antichrist (Mystery Babylon America) is revealed in the last days, he shall first be a vessel for Satan; he shall be the son of perdition. Satan (Rome) gives him his seat and great authority as the leader of the New World Order; the One World Government. Satan (Rome) enters into perdition...(passing of the baton) the son of perdition (Babylon America) becomes, "The Satan-possessed Antichrist"
We bring in AI at this point.
To me, what many call AI (Artifical Intelligence) is really MD (Measuring Device) The world is already being deceived with AI. We will stick with that deception for now.
Zechariah 5:1-4 All of this is NASA and the wickedness of the image of the beast. I'll cover the other verses in chapter 5 later on.
verse 1 Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll.
Zechariah describes a modern spy satellite in terms of a flying ephah. This particular ephah is a measuring device. This measuring device is flying. Understand that Zechariah had look up.
verse 2 And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying roll; the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits.
This a modern spy satellite
verse 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.
This modern spy satellite is their eye through all the earth. Today's photo-recon spy satellites are called our "Eyes-in-the-sky" The cameras on spy satellites in north-south polar orbit "eye" or view each part of the globe every few hours as the earth turns under them. This is a modern space reconnaissance, photo-intelligence-gathering satellite. Photo-recon surveillance satellites are essentially measuring devices. Its now collecting data, amounts of radiation, temperature, altitudes, wave lengths using infrared photography. Surveillance satellites can locate marijuana and heroin poppy fields from 575 miles above the earth. All collected data is in turn dumped out of the ephah, or beamed via radio signals back to the earth.
In 1972, the United States Earth Resources Technology Satellite (ERST) was referred to as the "Orbiting Eye at the time. God says this is their eye that goes forth. God calls the ephah wickedness (v 8). God Himself is the one allowing this because he says so in Zachariah (v 4); allowing it so that his Word will be fulfilled. God wants us to know all about it. Some will know- some will be deceived.
verse 4 I will bring it forth, saith the Lord of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof.
God calls the ephah wickedness. Now God explains the curse of verse3; it entering the house of the thief, entering the house of those who swear falsely by his name. God says it will consume them. Reminds me of Covid-19 virus which also was a curse of which God allowed in for the sin of abortion. Making both the Covid-19 and the covid vaccine a curse (turbo cancer). Some received it, some were held back from getting it.
I will discuss Zechariah 5:5-11 in a different posting.
