Guys, on the posting of the sighting of the New Moon by Nehemia Gordon...the new moon fell on the night of 11 Dec.  that makes Michael Roods calendar..the biblical calendar right on for the month of Tevet.  The 21st of Dec. is the 10th. of Tevet....the date that i have been watching.  Because Zach. 8:19 names the fasts that will turn to joy for the house of Judah...and the last one he names, is the 10th. of the 10th. month...and so, as these fasts come to pass this year, i am keeping a look out for what happens...last year starting with: The 10th of Tevet on New Year's eve on the gregorian calendar..it was the 10th. of Tevet...on the Biblically Correct Calendar.  Every Fast of Zach. last year turned in to a Feast (joy for the house of Judah) on the gregorian calendar.  These fasts are not Lev. 23 appointed times...instead they are fast of tradtion of the Jews. Men's appointed times...except for the mention of these fasts in the book of Zach. we would not know that G-d honored them.   They are nowhere else documented (other than the Jewish Oral Torah notes) that i know of.
   In Zach. they begin with the last being first order. Reminds me of the scripture "the last shall be first and first shall be last"  in order.  (another thing to watch...as the last one to be turned into a gregorian date Feast...shoud be the first one mentioned in Zach. 8. The fast of 4th. Month,Tammuz...which falls about the 4th. of July every year except Adar Bet years (i think).
   I don't know what this means....but i feel something is about to happen...the 10th of the 10th. month is on Preparation Day for Shabbat.
   On the Hillel calendar...the days of the 10th. month are adjusted so that the 10th can't effect Shabbat. (maybe why the 10 virgins were not prepared for the coming Bride Groom!)  If the people can't prepare for Shabbat...it becomes a day of fasting instead of Feasting..so Hillel calendar has been adjusted. Hillel calendar has the 10th. of the 10th. month falling on Tues. nite/Wed. day (Dec. 19th. instead of the 21st.)
   From our parshat  for this week...the one that always covers the fast of the 10th. of the 10th month...i learned that in the messianic circles of traditions..they also include in the reasons for this fast  it's connected to the death of two important people...one is Simon Peter who was hung upside down when he was crucified and the other to the death of the scribe Ezra who died on the 9th. of Tevet.  Ezra is said to have called the Jewish nation back to the Paleo Hebrew alef-bet that G-d wrote the Tablet in....saying/teaching that the Hebrew words had been intrepreted into idolatrous meanings because of the changing to Greek and Roman type letters.  Since both Simeon Peter and Ezra died on the 9th. of the 10th. month...the fast of the 10th. month was extended to a 2/3 day Fast.  So...of course this would have made Shabbat an over extended Fast time...thus the calendar differences.
     This time could be a very important WATCH TIME.. Meriam Brown

"SIGNS THAT THE RAPTURE COULD BE ON 12/21/07 OR THEREABOUTS"
 

GREETINGS;TO ALL DOVES HERE AND ABROAD: I KNOW THAT WE ARE ALLL ANXIOUS FOR THE LORD'S RETURN AT ANY DAY NOW!!! There has just been too much that we WATCHERS have received that makes us believe 2007 has to be the year. I have felt led by the Lord to place this here as I feel the message is encouraging as we AWAIT THE BLESSED HOPE THAT MAY ONLY BE A FEW DAYS AWAY. There is no guarantee  that what I write is right on...for we all look through a glass darkly.  This message is not a "THUS SAITH THE LORD"...I AM NOT A PROPHET..HOWEVER THE lORD HAS GIVEN ME THE TITLE OF A MESSENGER.. What I will write are some things I have writen before..but are worth repeating for some may have never read them...Last Nov. 06, I was first given the word by the Lord in a dream that I was to proclaim as I witnessed FOR PEOPLE TO GET READY..FOR HIS COMIING IN 2007..two days later in a dream I was told to TELL PEOPLE TO BE READY, FOR THE LORD WAS COMING.  IN THE BEGINNING OF 2007 IN JAN AGAIN i HAD DREAMS ALL RELATING TO THE Lord's return in 2007. NOW i HAVE BEEN WITNESSING HIS RETURN SINCE 1988, however last year was the first time He had me mention the year. On Sept. 2nd I had a short message..spoken very softly 'I AM COMING FOR YOU SOMETIME THIS FALL(RAPTURE)" At that time I could not believe what I was hearing because it was just a few days before Rosh HaShana and many of us thought that was His return date. On Oct. 3rd almost one month later while sleeping I heard '74 days"  nothing else..It did not say in 74 days, just 74 days.  I knew it was the Lord again at that time adding to the Sept. message of fall as a possible timeline of His return. I counted the days that night and the count came to Dec. 16th, 2007. On Oct. 16th in the afternoon I called my prayer partner and asked about praying about the 74 days..He shows her pictures and receives messages. She has had this type of ministry for nearly 8 years. I prayed and asked what the 74 days meant. The Lord showed my friend as in a vision she saw Him standing right near me while I was sitting (I did not see it) and He showed to her for me a 7 and below the 7 a number 4 and below the number 4 a number 12. He then told her with that Chris and I would confirm the TIMELINE as he too had received messages. I took my calendar and again went to the Dec. 16th countdown of which He had given me ( the 74 days) and through much error I one day looked at a calendar (Jewish calendar) and as I looked at the 16th of Dec. I saw the 7th of TEVET ON THE 16TH OF DEC. IT WAS AT THIS TIME i REALIZED HE WAS USING THE  JEWISH CALENDAR for me to get my answer. i REALIZED THAT THE 4 MEANT THE 4TH MONTH WHICH IS TEVET  on the Jewish Calendar and I thought the 12 meant THE MONTH OF DECEMBER. I felt at that time the 16th was a possible time of His return or thereabouts. Last Monday I received a phone call from my prayer partner and she was asked by the Lord to call me and pray over me for He was going to lead me on a different path.(FOR i WAS SOMEWHAT OFF THE PATH HE SHOWED ME)  I was confussed.  It was just the last few days that the Lord again had me look at my Jewish calendar and as I looked at it I saw the number 12 written below the 21st of December..He had given me all the numbers pertaining to my Jewish calendar. Shelby Corbitt says that is the way the Lord gives any timelines..with a Jewish calendar. THE 12TH BY THE WAY BEING THE 12TH DAY OF TEVET on the Jewish calendar corresponding to the Gentile calendar of Dec. 21st. Here are some signs that may tie in with what I have received.  ALSO BEAR IN MIND THAT CHRIS WHO HAS POSTED MESSAGES ON THIS SITE has received many confirmations of the Lord's return this year and also confirming what I have received. As I looked at December 21st there are three 7"s..7+7+7=21, 7 is the number of completeion. Also if you take the year 2007 you have another 7 which totals 28.. a number the Lord showed me in November while asleep. . The number 28 can also mean 4 weeks which have been important timlines in the messages Chris has received. The 3 sevens of Dec. 21st also remind me of Valerie's " SKYBLUE 21"  (from RITA) that she received several years ago. The number 12 of TEVET on the Jewish calendar (the number 12 He showed me) has three 4"s..4+4+4=12. We have heard so much about this number and Chris has received it as a confirmation number several times. I received it three times in a row last week without looking for it. It can be read as 4:44 or 444 all adding up to the number 12..the 12th of Tevet and the 12th month...December. The number 4 stands for completion of New Creation of which we are referred to after we are 'BORN AGAIN". My thoughts are that the 16th of December of which the 74 days He gave me ended, it was from that point the countdown started and from the 17th to the 20th we have four days which ends on the 21st midnight.  The number 4 He gave me also may have also meant that time or therebaouts. WINTER SOLTICE STARTS ON DEC. 22ND around 1:23AM EST. What I have just written may not be totally accurate. I do know the Lord has given me what I have shown you.  It is like a puzzle..He does not come right out and tell you what it all means.  He talks in shadows, parables..HIS WAYS ARE NOT OUR WAYS. I do know that what the Lord shows us He holds us responsible to and expects us to not hide it in our own bosom for our own satisfaction, but to encourage others and prepare them for what my lie AHEAD...PARTICUARLY THE RAPTURE of which the message is speaking. I think of what the two ladies heard last Jan. when confronted in the night hours at a Walmart store by an angel (perhaps) asking them at least three times if they had a nice Christmas and they answered her YES each time. It was then that she said, 'I AM GLAD, FOR THIS WILL BE YOUR LAST CHRISTMAS HERE ON EARTH". Now we know that this actually happened..so if what they heard holds true..we have to be raptured sometime before Christmas and since I have been told it will be FALL AND SHELBY CORBITT HAS BEEN TOLD 'THE YEAR 2007" and many others have received dreams and messages prcolaming the same thing Divaprincess saw on the 5th of Decmeber in a rapture dream that it was snowing in Los Angeles and the calendar at the Bank she was at in her dream read Dec. 5th..the beginning of Hanukkah..Well, we have seen and heard of many parts of the US having more snow than they could hope for. Hannukkah has been shown much to us in messages which I believe is just as signal or a season for the rapture to happen.. The storms, the floods have all been predicted, saying this would happen just before the time of the rapture. I am not predicting that Dec. 21st is the rapture time, but if He is going to come we know it has to be VERY SHORTLY. My only desire it to be completely obedient to what I have received... TWO VERSES I WANT EVERYONE TO READ:"God is not a man, that He should lie, or a son of man that He should repent. Has He not said, and will not do it? Or has He spoken, and will not fufill it". Numbers 23:19 "He who is the glory of Israel does not lie or change His mind; for He is not a man, that He should change His mind." I have never in all the years since 1988 as a WATCHER SEEN SO MANY MESSAGES THAT HAVE GONE OUT WARNING US TO PREPARE..FOR HE IS COMING SOON AND HIS REWARD IS WITH HIM. "COME QUICKLY LORD JESUS"!!! MARANATHA..Virginia Arnke
