This coming Saturday isn't any different from any other day. Jesus could come today, tomorrow, Friday, or Saturday! But he might not. It's not something we can predict, Jesus said so.

I totally agree, TKD.
I'm listening to their radio show right now....
Someone called in and said something like this, "If God returns on the 21st than obviously you're a prophet of God. But if he doesn't return, than doesn't that make you a false prophet?" He completely ignored the question. It really is sad. He's really causing a lot of damage to people....

This whole pet thing is just a scam.
According to the contract terms, the rescue service doesn’t apply if the pet owner dies, only if they are raptured. Also, you aren’t told where your money went.
a) You pay the fee so you’re covered for the next ten years, if nothing happens you renew it.
b) You pay the fee and you die of natural causes. Your pet is not rescued because that isn’t covered.
c) You pay the fee and you aren’t raptured. Your pet is not rescued and you don’t get a refund.
d) You pay the fee and you are raptured. You have no way to ensure they keep their word, because you’re gone.
There is no way for a client to gain anything from this.
Also, the company makes no claim about a certain date, only a coverage window. So they have been and will be in business long before and after May 21.

Just a quick hop in here - the word Rapture does not actually occur anywhere in Scripture - it was a translation from the original Greek if I remember right. But the idea is still there. And while the idea of a Pre-trib rapture has been poplar for the past 150 years, it was also quite popular during earlier parts of church history. And yes, there are several passages including those already mentioned that scholars believe point to a pre-trib rapture of sorts. I don't have time to post more in depth, bu I wanted to hop in and post that much without starting a debate. Hope that helps!
PS I also agree with those who posed the verse about no man knowing when Christ will return. Also - as for this man being a prophet - the Bible says that if a prophet is wrong even ONCE - then he is a false prophet and should not be believed - that one time poisons every other time they may have been right, since they were not getting it from God.
Finally - the episode "The Second Coming" is fitting - I plan on listening to it on Saturday

A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ that a man would have to seek Him to find her.

Well, technically he didn’t prophesy the end in 1994, only that it was very ‘likely’. This time, he’s saying this is it without a doubt.JesusFreak777 wrote:as for this man being a prophet - the Bible says that if a prophet is wrong even ONCE - then he is a false prophet and should not be believed
Me too I think I will tomorrow night actually (Friday) since Mr. Camping didn’t give a time zone.JesusFreak777 wrote:the episode "The Second Coming" is fitting - I plan on listening to it on Saturday
Actually, He said 6:00 PM central time Saturday. (on his radio program yesterday.) How exactly did he figure that out?

Uh, yes. That pet thing is very much a scam. Honestly, this whole May 21st thing is a scam. All the hints are there.
Ha. right. 6 pm. So my contest on my blog doesn't even get to end! I'll be in Heaven by that time. Dang. And I was thoroughly enjoying all the drawings I was getting. Now I'm depressed.
GUYS, WHAT IF I DON'T WANT TO BE RAPTURED?!!!

We’ve been treating this rather humorously, and understandably so, but I want to give some serious advice about this.
I urge everyone to take extra caution on Saturday, especially if you live in a populated area. Even if nothing supernatural happens, there is still a great possibility of manmade danger. Hopefully I’m wrong, but I imagine there will be people doing all kinds of crazy things. People might take this opportunity to loot, riot, or worse.
I for one will be remaining inside my residence during the evening and night hours.

I don't even think my town recognizes what is happening... come on, the newspaper reports about a child learning her ABC's on the FRONT PAGE. o.0 I'm not too scared about where I'm at for all the serious hubbub. Plus, I have HW to do on Sunday. And Saturday is a yard sale.
But this is humorous. And we all very well know why.

I have heard a smattering of reporting on this in the media but it is widely being ignored, I wouldn't bet on any looting/rioting... but you never know!
So tomorrow at 11 P.M. my time I'll be gone. Wah. Now I won't get to finish my movie

I hadn't heard of this until this thread...it doesn't seem like a huge deal that people would be rioting. I mean, there have been plenty of these predictions over the years, it's nothing new.
The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance. ♡
It's been all over the internet. Atheists just love to jump on these things and mock Christianity in general.
So, since this is the last Friday ever, I feel that it's only right that this is watched one last time...
