Dear Doves,
Dear Jan Mikael,
Jan, thank you so much for your letter from July 17, (7/17/7 ! ) http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/july2007/janm717.htm !
You are right: “...wonderfull to know about all those ways, the Holy Spirit works ...” Amen! Praise the Lord!
And surely that’s just the point at “our” Fivedoves-site: Looking and hoping for His soon coming and ...comforting one another... by His Grace!
Wherefore comfort one another with these words.. (Thessalonians, 4, 18)
Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. (Thessalonians, 5, 11)
By the way, I always marvelled when i read Jan’s letter in which he emphasized “the three weeks” (the 21 days) of Daniel, chapter 10.

Interesting was also Brad’s letter http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/july2007/bradr77.htm
and Kay’s letter http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/july2007/kay74.htm
I like to ask those doves who understand the origin Hebrew language: Haven’t the words “Seven = sheba” / “Weeks = shabuwa” / “Shabbat” similar or same roots?
Doesn’t mean “three weeks” = three “sevens” ?
Interesting Lewis Brackett’s letter from July 18, “The Jewish Year”
http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/july2007/lewisb718.htm
It seems that there is some like a “hidden mystery” that six millenniums are over, ...filled...(see P.S.), we are really already in the seventh millennium...
...on the seventh day HE ended His Work...
I am pondering this when I’m thinking about that “unique” date 7/7/7, which are indeed four sevens...
(again: 7th year of a “new millennium” – third one at least at “our calendar”
7th month of the year
7th day of the month
7th day of the week = Sabbath )
Well, the Lord knows...
Greetings
Maranatha
His Hour is at hand...

Re: the musical: “Near the Mark”
The school year here in germany is ending, ...next week are starting long summer vacation...
However on this Saturday, July 21, (hmm, ...third Sabbath this month...)
the grade school will show its musical, the title:
“The marriage in Cana“
Praise the Lord!
John 2,
1: And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:
2: And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.
3: And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.
4: Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.
5: His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.
6: And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.
7: Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
8: And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.
9: When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
10: And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.
11: This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
