I thought it might be interesting to look at events happening not only in America but around the world on the day of the eclipse. Here's one I just learned about:
Big Ben in London is going to be under repair work for 4 years--and it is going to stop sounding as of 21 August 2017!

Thank you, whatif, for bringing this to our attention. Read about this also yesterday and thought it would be worth mentioning, but there are so many events and issues converging, it's simply overwhelming...

That is exactly what I've been wondering, stephan! Is the Lord soon to stop the clock, so to speak, on the age of the gentiles?

I recall at least a couple of times it has been mentioned in threads here that the universe has been designed by the Creator as an intricate clock. Is He maybe giving us a confirmation that His signs in the heavens are giving us a last call, as time is nearly up?

These are exactly my thoughts, too.
If you know a chess clock, then the image becomes even more clearer. God shifts the focus from the gentiles back to Israel again.
We also have an overlapping time span of 70 years at the beginning AND the end. From the birth of Christ to the destroying of the temple in 70 A.D. the Church grew, the Jews were scattered. And from 1947/1948 until now we see the same thing reversed in another 70 years. The Jews were gathered into their land and the Church is starting to disappear.

Amazing, stephan! What an exciting time we're living in!

Gary777 usually puts stuff in the shout box regarding quakes. He's the most reliable reporter of this stuff..Think it was 4.3 but some of the news shows 5.1.
EDIT - from shoutbox courtesy Gary "M 5.3 - 76km WSW of Puerto Madero, Mexico "

And from 1947/1948 until now we see the same thing reversed in another 70 years. The Jews were gathered into their land and the Church is starting to disappear. In addition to Big Ben stopping, and what Stephan has pointed out with Israel regathering as the church (gentiles), at least the brick and mortar one, seems to be disappearing into apostasy... Yesterday we had the eclipse starting in Salem, Oregon at the very moment the sun was setting in Jerusalem. What we know for a fact is that this eclipse was a warning to America from God. I *think*, God is getting ready to judge America, a nation of multitudes (all cultures, all ethnicities, all races, a melting pot, a nation formed from immigrants, mostly gentiles; however I'm sure that there are people from the tribes of Israel mixed in there too). And so... as the sun set in Jerusalem yesterday, it rose and then the eclipse cut straight across America signifying our soon to come judgement. Once we are judged the first time, back to Israel. (I personally believe we are going to be judged more than once, a double portion as it says in Revelation). I think we will be judged, then seemingly rise again (the head mortally wounded and then healed). Once judged the first time, God will turn His Attention back to Israel, back to His Chosen People. Then will come the time of Jacob's trouble (Tribulation). Somewhere in there, God will take His Church Home (not talking about buildings but about people who truly follow Him). Maybe sometime in September??? Maybe not though. Regardless, we know for a fact that God will turn His Attention back to Israel, to deal with them, to judge them, to redeem them back to Him since they refused Jesus the first time around. God loves Israel and He loves us! For the next 7 years, gentiles can still be saved, but God's Focus will be back on Israel. In 7 years, another eclipse across America (who represents the gentiles, the world). Our 2nd portion of judgement as is said in Revelation. America will literally be sealed with what looks to me to be The Cross. Judgement is complete for all, both Israel and Gentiles. Then the sun will rise in Jerusalem... the New Jerusalem, the start of the Millennial Kingdom. Those are just my thoughts (usual disclaimer... fallible... human... I'm pure in Spirit but unfortunately still corrupt in Body). I love the word "convergence". It's such an accurate way to describe everything happening. My Lord is SO AMAZING and I love Him SO MUCH! God doesn't do ANYTHING without letting us know first, without giving us warning after warning after warning. He doesn't want us to hurt or to suffer and He loves us so much. He gives us each and every opportunity to choose Him, gives us till the very last minute, just wanting to bestow His Grace and Perfection upon us. We will all be judged differently. What I am 100% sure of... no one will be able to say "I didn't know".

Big Ben definitely caught my eye. It's the most famous clock in the world. One way of looking at it: TIME IS UP.

Kurschner and Greenblatt arrived in Israel yesterday, 8/23, 8 months after UNSC 2334 on 12/23, and exactly one month prior to 9/23.....let's see if an agreement in labor occurs by 9/23, to be "confirmed" by mid October
