From the Latin, the word adventus means arrival or coming. Advent is a lovely 4-week season annually to rejoice again in reflecting on the long-ago birth of the Messiah, the Redeemer of humankind, the Son of Man and the Son of Elohim. Such a momentous birth was announced to simple poor shepherds at Bethlehem by angels! At birth, He indeed was made flesh and tabernacled with us. However, did He become the word made flesh earlier than His birth? Yes. His CONCEPTION began Phase 1, the initial phase, of His First Coming. When? Some believe this began as Kislev 24 went to Hanukkah Night 1 on Kislev 25. May we ponder Haggai 2: 18-19. "Consider from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the month, even from the day that the foundation of YHVH's temple was laid, consider it. Is the seed yet in the barn, yea, as yet the vine, and the fig tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive tree, hath not brought forth, from this day I will bless you." Some reflections. Upward, temple foundation, blessing as of Kislev 24 going to 25. Reminded 2 times to consider Kislev 24. Curious that the word upward rather than onward is used. Going UP. This implies harpazo. And the association with the day of temple foundation reminds us of the Messiah. He began to be the symbolic cornerstone of a temple of Elohim, not made of stones, at His Conception. Then the crops of Israel are mentioned. Last mentioned, the last to harvest are the olives. Harvest complete by Kislev 25. These clues point to the Season of Hanukkah of 8 days: Messiah, temple, temple foundation, temple begun, blessing of Israel, Israel's harvest complete, Month 9 Kislev, and Kislev 24 UPWARD as Hanukkah Night 1 begins on Kislev 25.

In 2025, will the Feast of Dedication, the Festival of Lights, Begin Phase 1 of the Second Coming of the Messiah? On the day of The Blessed Hope? Where will the doves be on 12-16 as Israel goes to 12-17 at her sunset, then goes to her Midnight Hour? Kislev 24 goes to Kislev 25. We shall see. 

Thank you John Tng and all the doves, for your many blessings to me over the last 18 years!

With Love and Shalom,
