Links: Totality | Europe Map | NASA |August 11, 1999 (Day 223): The last solar eclipse of the millennium occurred. Although a partial eclipse was visible in the northeastern USA above North Carolina, the total eclipse was visible in Europe. It was the first total eclipse visible in England since 1927. The eclipse occurred on Day 223, where the 23 represents a spiritual uptrend in history.
From calculations: Maximum duration, 2 minutes 23.0 seconds, occurred in Romania at 45°32.6ŽN, 022°50.6ŽE.1 The greatest eclipse occurred west of Bucharest, Romania at 11:03:04.41 UT3 at 45°04.5ŽN, 024°18.0ŽE with a central duration of 2 minutes 22.9 seconds.2Romania, the place of maximum duration, is in the region of Judah in Europe. The duration of 2 minutes 23 seconds occurred on Day 223, which contains the same digits. The number 223 represents a spiritual uptrend in history.
The first eclipse test of the Right Man occurred in the Garden of Eden. When Eve sinned, Adam went into eclipse testing. His Marriage had failed, and the love of his life was spiritually dead. She had rejected God's Plan, which included her Right Man. She could not love and respect her Right Man in spiritual death. So Adam had just received something like a divorce, or separation. He had been jilted. His Right Woman had joined the enemy camp of Satan. Adam's soul was blacked out where the Right Woman had previously resided. Things could never be the same. Adam was in dire straits. He was spiritually separated from his Right Woman and full of stress and temptation to join her by committing spiritual suicide. He had a choice. He could stick it out under the Plan of God, or he could say, "Yes dear," which he did.
In the Church Age, Eclipse Testing is an opportunity for the
Right Man
to pass the test that Adam flunked and thus become a witness in
the Appeal
Trial of Satan in the Angelic Conflict. The Church Age test
is similar
to Adam's test when the woman brought him the forbidden
fruit. In
Eclipse Testing of the Church Age, God separates the Right Woman
from the
Right Man, which is like the death sentence of going to the
cross.
The Right Man is expected to lay down his life for his Right
Woman.
When she rejects him, his heart has a big dark void in place of
the Intimacy
Room. His Right Woman can bring him more pain and misery
than anyone
in this life.
The test for the Right Man in the Church Age is to withstand the
suffering
of Eclipse Testing by utilization of the divine operating assets
of the
Spiritual Life. The test can only be passed in the Filling
of the
Holy Spirit. Loss of the Filling of the Holy Spirit would be
tantamount
to spiritual death and represent Adam's failure. To pass the
Eclipse
Test, the Right Man must avoid Grieving or Quenching the Holy
Spirit.
To avoid Grieving the Holy Spirit, he must have impersonal love
for his
Right Woman even though she has rejected him and is in the
darkness of
the Cosmic System like Eve. He must also be willing to go to
the
cross to avoid Quenching the Holy Spirit. In Eclipse Testing
he will
have nothing in the Plan of God to look forward to except the
cross.
However, he can use the Problem Solving Devices like +H (sharing
the Happiness
of God) and Occupation with Christ.
The Right Man who passes Eclipse Testing will qualify to receive the fulness of blessing in Christ (Romans 15:29). Just as the Sun returns after the eclipse, the light of Christ will shine in his heart. He will glorify God to the maximum and receive blessing in time and eternity commensurate with his new spiritual status in the new paradigm.
The maximum duration of the eclipse was in Romania, which represents Judah, the leadership tribe. The Right Man is the leader of his Right Woman. The wrong man will only lead the woman astray where both will die in the wilderness. The woman dies spiritually during Eclipse Testing, and only her Right Man can deliver her. If her Right Man is a wimp like Adam, they will both die in the wilderness. However, if the Right Man passes the Eclipse Test, they will both have the fulness of blessing in Christ and glorify God to the maximum. Of course, no one can deliver anyone apart from the grace of God.
Eclipses are like communion in the heavens. They are reminders of the suffering of the cross whereby Jesus Christ purchased salvation for all mankind. Through His substitutionary spiritual death, the free gift of Everlasting Life is now available for all who want it. Eclipses are also the ultimate test for the Right Man, who must be willing to follow the example of Christ and die for his Right Woman. When he loves her that much, his love will survive the Eclipse Test, and he will rise to a new realm of love and light on the other side in the fulness of blessing in Christ.
