John Some thoughts from a land downunda!

Thanks, Denis.
JohnCOUNTING BACK - 3600 DAYS - COUNTING DOWN!
From Australia - a nation facing an election on Saturday 24 November - perhaps the last election before the AntiChrist sets up his kingdom (elections are held every three years, but can be called earlier). I wanted to submit some basic mathematics, while recognising the amazing numerical insights from other doves who are constantly seeking to understand His higher ways. Daniel Matson suggests that 30 September 2017 may be the date of His Return to earth, a timeline that I identify with, albeit recognising that God may have some fine tuning stored in His infinite mind!My maths indicates that 22 November 2007 is 3600 (6*6*100) days from 30 September 2017 and 22 November 2007 is a date that links to the 1967 UN Resolution 242 (as noted by Tony Ellsworth). The maths is a little tricky - there are 10 solar years (365 days) from 30 September 2007 to 30 September 2017. Then you add 50 days to adjust to 360 day years and 3 days for leap years; 53 days takes you from 30 September 2007 to 22 November 2007. I will leave it to other doves to judge, but I found this of significance.Now we all understand the seven years of Daniel’s week, so I would like to share some thoughts on the next three years - should the Lord tarry! Some verses from Joel are relevant:Joel 2:28-31 (selected) I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh…I will show signs and wonders in the heavens, and on the earth, blood and fire and columns of smoke. The sun shall be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes. This promise - the outpouring of the Spirit upon all flesh may not have been fulfilled in its entirety! This is the outpouring of a Person - the Holy Spirit preparing His church to meet Him in the air!! The world environment pictured is one of God’s judgment – an outpouring of the Holy Spirit in the midst of a shaking world – and shaking church! The light of Christ rising against the backdrop of a darkening and stormy sky!
My godly father-in-law once made the poignant remark, quoting a preacher - I do not send revival - I come myself! This mix of revival and judgment is at the very doors and is an integral part of the events leading to His Return - events that will continue with ever increasing birth pangs until He comes to catch (snatch) us away.
In 2007 we have witnessed two of the most startling comets for some time - the year started with McNaught (in appearance like a bride being whisked away) and is finishing with an exploding Comet Holmes that is taking those who look upward by surprise - the Joel prophesied signs in the heavens are heralding the closeness of His coming. Maranatha Please pray for the elections in Australia!
