Hi Randy and all Doves-    Over the last six months or so, I have followed the various posts on Five Doves-where I have gained so much insight-awesome job Doves. Recently,your posts Randy have particularly caught my eye, which in turn, led me to visit your website. I must say that you have an incredible testimony as well as an excellent analysis of the 777.68 Dow Jones point drop as the possible ultimate sign for the Rapture. Personally, I'm convinced that the Rapture will take place this year, very possibly between Sept. 16th-18th. However, I'm still not quite "all-in' for a 2012 Rosh Hashanah Rapture for the following reasons. For 27 of my 28 years as a Bible Prophecy teacher/student I believed the Rapture would occur on the Feast of Trumpets on some given year. Along with this, I was also convinced that there be 7 years of Tribulation culminating with Christ's Return to the Earth. Although I never thought it possible, over the past six months or so various factors (signs and progressive revelation) have lead me to believe that Christ's Return to the Earth will be in 2015, leaving only 3&1/2 years of Tribulation after the Rapture. Some of the articles(and there are many more) that led me to believe this position is highly/most probable position would be: 1- Mathman's post on FiveDoves(3 Dec 2011) 'If you don't love Jesus yet, I dare you to read this!!! TIME IS ALMOST OUT!!"-here he lists end dates for the final generation and the evidence of 2008 being yhe start of the final Sabbatical Week(Daniel's 70th Week). 2-Ron Reese's articles revealing that Obama is the Antichrist and that the 70th Week of Daniel's Prophecy actually began with the rise of Obama. Personally my choice for the starting point of the 70th Week was Obama's official start to his Presidency on Jan. 20/21 2009. 3- Joshua Elsom's article on www.nbm4jesus.org/jimbramlettjoshuaelsomopenletter.html in which he shows a double-application of Daniel's 62+7 weeks in Dan.9 pointing to a Sept 2015 Return of Christ(2nd Coming). But here is something I recently seen that I found to be quite amazing. In fact, at this point I'm finding it extremely difficult to believe that it could simply be coincidence. I believe the following information presents some serious food for thought that is worthy of our attention. It pertains to Ron Rose's post on FiveDoves on 31 May2012 entitled:'Could this be the date "The 2 Witnesses are Killed? Part 3". Counting from Obama's first day in office on Jan. 21,2009 to the Fesat of Trumpets on Sept.17,2012 there are EXACTLY 1335 days! Dan. 12:12, 'Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the 1335 days". Granted, it's very difficult to say with certainty as to what this time 1335 day period applies, but even so, what are the odds? The fact that Obama's 1335th day in office ends on the Feast of Trumpets 2012 is something that should at the very least cause us to scratch our heads. If this theory ends up the right application of Dan. 12:12, it leads me to somewhat of a disturbing realization. Carrying this theory a step further, adding exacly 2520 days on the Gregorian calendar to Obama's first day in office brings us to Dec 14,2015(the 8th day of Hanukkah). So if you calculate the mid-point of this scenario the Fourth of July,2012! Jan 20,2009 thru July 4,2012=1260 days (inclusive). Therefore, if the Rapture were to occur on Sept. 17,2012 that will leave about a 2 month gap in which the Antichrist will persecute the Saints. we are told in Dan. 7:25( as well as Rev. 12:6&13:5) that the Antichrist will make war against the saints of the Most Holy for 3&1/2 years. And there are exactly 1260 days inbetween July 4,2012(mid-point) and Dec.14,2015(end-point of Daniel's 70th Week). At this point I'm led to believe that if the Rapture doesn't occur or the Antichrist's 3&1/2(42 month) reign doesn't begin by July 4th, then I'll be looking for a 2012 Rosh Hashanah Rapture with 7 full years of Daniel's 70th Week to follow. It's truly mind-boggling to me, since a 2015 and a 2019 Return of Christ to the Earth are both strong candidates at this point in time. Add to this that only one day after writing this article and about 10 minutes prior to posting it on FiveDoves I came across Mathman's incredible post(9 June 2012) entitled: "OLA:Vision of Angels coming down&Daniel's 21 days". In a nutshell, it provides another compelling scenario pointing to a pre-July 4th Rapture. These are truly exciting days to be living in, that is, if you are a blood-bought child of the Lord Jesus Christ!                       Eagerly awaiting the KING OF KINGS!                       ybic------------Benny
