Here are a couple of other thoughts, regarding New Year’s Eve & New York:

New York is also known as the “city that never sleeps.”  This would prove to be quite false if it were the visual center point of the Rapture.  Millions upon millions watch the New Years Eve celebration in Time Square.  In contrast it is God’s faithful that are on watch, “never sleeping.”

New York is also called “Caput Mundi” which means Capital of the World.

It of course was the center of 9-11 which took place 7 days before Rosh Hashanah 2001.

This year on the eve of Rosh Hashanah the “Dow” ended down 777.68 points.  The New York stock exchange would be the central point for this happening, and much of all the financial troubles of the world.  It seems to be a precursor to what is Revelation 18 where the great “merchant city” if fallen.

Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year of which is simply the blowing of trumpets.

New Year’s Eve would be the American equivalent.
