I had written in about 9-11 a few days back, and I am intently looking @ the fall feasts.  I was pondering on this and thinking in regards to it being 9 years since 9-11 & 10 years since the year 2000 (millennium).  Nine, is well known as the number for judgment.  As such, we certainly can be looking for this in the United States.  When the towers went down, it reminded all of us that we are vulnerable in every way.  Yes, even in the United States!  Churches were filled to the brim.  Yet now we have forgotten.  I've seen polls in regards to the Mosque @ around 60% disapproval.  This is horrible!  President Bush had a 90% approval rating after the attacks.  Can we all say "backslidden???"  Yes!  The country is ripe (like grapes) for judgment - watch out!!!
 
I was also thinking in regards to 10 years.  9-11 stands out for sure, but what happened in 2000???  I happened to find that the United Nations (HQ in New York City, where the attacks  happened) enacted the following:
 
On 8 September 2000, following a three day Millennium Summit of world leaders at the headquarters of the United Nations, the General Assembly adopted the Millennium Declaration.
 
This declaration promised the following:
The Millennium Declaration has eight chapters and key objectives, adopted by 189 world leaders during the summit:[1]

   1. Values and Principles
   2. Peace, Security and Disarmament
   3. Development and Poverty Eradication
   4. Protecting our Common Environment
   5. Human Rights, Democracy and Good Governance
   6. Protecting the Vulnerable
   7. Meeting the Special Needs of Africa
   8. Strengthening the United Nations

These eight goals should all be achieved by the year 2015.

2015 has been a well known date in regards to the tribulation, etc.

10 years later, the next day happens to be the Feast of Trumpets!

In the year 2000 the Feast of Trumpets was on September 30th, so this also a date to consider (as are all the fall feasts).

Watching, waiting, hoping...
