Nobody Knows . . .

But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33. Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is. 34. It is like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch. 35. Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming --- in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning --- 36. lest, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping. 37. And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch! ~Mark 13:32-37

Harold Camping
Then if anyone says to you, Look, here is the Christ! or There! do not believe it. 24. For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25. See, I have told you beforehand. 26. Therefore if they say to you, Look, He is in the desert! do not go out; or Look, He is in the inner rooms! do not believe it. 27. For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 28. For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together. ~Matthew 24:23-28

Sound familiar?

  1. "As the lightning flashes from the East to the West..." Not one time zone at a time.

    I keep looking for news that this event (the passing of a failed prophesy) even happened. Maybe Harold had a few adherents, but it's a pretty tiny big event. Maybe very few really took stock in what he had to say. My wife and I enjoyed the music on Family Radio, because they are the only ones that regularly play traditional hymn music, but we paid no attention to the teaching. You can't go wrong with 200 year old hymns.

    OOPS! Pauline just saw on Foxnews.com that Camping has re-set the rapture for October.
    Hopefully his board will do a "World Wide Church of God" type repentence (a great story here: http://www.gci.org/aboutus/openarms ) Hopefully his board will remove him and take away his microphone. Pray!

  2. Hey Duane,

    Unfortunately he has enough of a following to have raised over 18 million dollars last year. Hopefully those who did follow him will wise up now and get under some good Bible teaching . . . unfortunately, for the most part, I doubt that will happen :-(.
