to the fivedoves,
unfortunately we could not watch the partial solar eclipse right now here at our place (South West Germany) because of clouds …and it is raining........
(They say: the rain was because of the depression “RITA” which, after crossing the USA and crossing the Northern Atlantic… the “rest” of “RITA” had arrived now at Northern Europe… bringing much rain….. this is really something is it not???)
however I like to send to you this link

where the brother is writing:
ANNULAR SOLAR ECLIPSE
There will be an Annular eclipse of the Sun in a path across Spain and northern Africa on October 3, 2005. This will be seen as a partial solar eclipse from Israel.
Chart 402 shows the position of the sun and moon in the constellation Bethulah as seen from Jerusalem at the time of the eclipse on October 3. The partial eclipse as seen from Jerusalem will start around 11:37 a.m. Jerusalem Time and will end around 2:32 p.m.
Chart 402 – Position of Sun and Moon in Bethulah during the partial Solar Eclipse on October 3
The below diagram shows how much of the sun will be covered by the moon as seen from Jerusalem near the peak of the eclipse at 1:00 p.m.
This is an interesting event in light of the fact that Bethulah (the woman) will be clothed with the sun and the moon beneath her feet at the New Moon sighting two days later.
Rev. 12:1 – And there appeared a great wonder (sign) in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet…..
We will just have to wait to see if this is the time for the rest of this scripture to be fulfilled.
Praise the Lord…..

Come Lord Jesus

October 3, 2005 = the 276th day of the year….
“276”… see Acts 27, …. there you have also the “14”…. (hmm …14… see also the “14 generations” of Matthew chapter 1, and remember the 14,000 days … see the site of our brother Charlie: : http://wonderful1.com/wst_page3.html )
14: But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called
Euroclydon.
15: And when the ship was caught,
and could not bear up into the wind, we let her drive.
16: And running under a certain
island which is called Clauda, we had much work to come by the boat:
17: Which when they had taken
up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should
fall into the quicksands, strake sail, and so were driven.
18: And we being exceedingly
tossed with a tempest, the next day they lightened the ship;
19: And the third day we cast
out with our own hands the tackling of the ship.
20: And when neither sun nor
stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope that
we should be saved was then taken away.
21: But after long abstinence
Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened
unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss.
22: And now I exhort you to
be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man's life among you,
but of the ship.
23: For there stood by me this
night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,
24: Saying, Fear not, Paul;
thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them
that sail with thee.
25: Wherefore, sirs, be of good
cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.
26: Howbeit we must be cast
upon a certain island.
27: But when the fourteenth
night was come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the
shipmen deemed that they drew near to some country;
28: And sounded, and found it
twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again,
and found it fifteen fathoms.
29: Then fearing lest we should
have fallen upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished
for the day.
30: And as the shipmen were
about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea,
under colour as though they would have cast anchors out of the foreship,
31: Paul said to the centurion
and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved.
32: Then the soldiers cut off
the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.
33: And while the day was coming
on, Paul besought them all to take meat, saying, This day is the fourteenth
day that ye have tarried and continued fasting, having taken nothing.
34: Wherefore I pray you to
take some meat: for this is for your health: for there shall not an hair fall
from the head of any of you.
35: And when he had thus spoken,
he took bread, and gave thanks to God in presence of them all: and when he
had broken it, he began to eat.
36: Then were they all of good
cheer, and they also took some meat.
37: And we were in all in the
ship two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.
Acts 27:
well, “let us abide in the ship….”
that there may be no divisions among us…
that we may be saved …
by His Grace…
Come Lord Jesus
