John and Doves,
 
I would like to add some more information relating to the year 2007.
 
George Curle from New Zealand wrote two books on Prophecy and shared another book with Helmut Silbach who hails from Western Australia. The former two books were "Times of the Signs" and God's Hidden Plan" whilst the third was "Bridge Over Troubled Waters".
 
In this last book he works with the plan of a suspension bridge which goes from 626 BC (The Rise of Independent Babylon) to 2007 AD. These are the anchor points.
 
At the beginning and end of the bridge is a 40 year span immediately prior to and after each tower.
 
At the top of the first tower is the date 586 BC which signifies Jerusalem falling to Nebuchadnezzar.
 
At the top of the second tower we have 1967 AD when Israel captured All of Jerusalem.
 
At the very centre of the bridge, where the steel suspension touches the bridge is 691 AD when the Dome of the Rock was completed.
 
Either side of this we have a 1206 year span followed by 20, 30 and 20 year spans rising up to the two towers.
 
To the left we see the dates of 566, 536 and 516 BC lining up with these spans.
 
To the right we see 1897, 1917 and 1947 AD lining up with these spans.
 
Note ALL the left side dates end in 6 and ALL the right side dates end in 7.
 
566 BC Nebuchadnezzar's Insanity
 
536 BC Start Second Temple
 
516 BC Completion of Second Temple
 
1897 AD First Zionist Congress
 
1917 AD British Capture Jerusalem
 
1947 AD UN Partitions Palestine
 
And then remember that the date atop the right hand tower is 1967 followed by the anchoring point of 2007.
 
In this diagram George labelled 2007 as "Most Likely Beginning of Christ's Millennial Reign". As the book was written 12 years ago in 1995 we can look back and admire his work comprising 22,000 hours of study of chronology, or, as he liked to call it "Chronophecy".
 
Here is another strong pointer to this year being a pivotal year.
 
Also stated in this book is the fact that from 444 BC (Command to Rebuild Jerusalem) to 2007 AD is 5 x 490 year spans, a total of 2450 years.
 
Praise God.
 
Blessings,
 
Phil.
