The Lord will one day return at midnight? - 12 verses - Jerusalem?

I've just been writing some tweets about the symbolism for the #31 being about last things and the return of the Lord. (http://twitter.com/#!/amazingword) For sure, I'm no prophet -- I just observe patterns I see in the scriptures. But I've noticed for a long time that it appears, the day The Lord does return, it will likely be at midnight -- I assume this would be the time in Jerusalem.

Rather than try to explain my reasoning, I've just copied below the only 12 Bible verses that contain the word midnight. (Having 12 of these is an interesting topic in itself)  I find this interesting -- something to think about as we celebrate the 2012 New Year. See what you think when you read the messages in these verses...
