BTW, wasn't the end of the world the day a Packer Legend signed to your team? Or would the end of the world come when he threw an interception in the NFC Championship game instead of hobbling out of bounds to set up a 50+ yard FG for one of the statistically speaking most accurate place kickers in the NFL, Ryan Longwell?

You have two choices. šŸ™‚

Not that I think it's going to happen this weekend. God wants me to suffer through at least one more commencement speech first. After all, one of his bloody bishops is doing it this year. šŸ‘Ž

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Civil Engineer eh.. not buying it.. Weatherman.. more likely. ;)

Eventually this world as we know it will end.. but trying to interpret the Bible for that day, on top of the original interpretation and generations of changes leaves one a fool.


Preacher says world will actually end in October 

OAKLAND, Calif. – A California preacher who foretold of the world's end only to see the appointed day pass with no extraordinarily cataclysmic event has revised his apocalyptic prophecy, saying he was off by five months and the Earth actually will be obliterated on Oct. 21.

Harold Camping, who predicted that 200 million Christians would be taken to heaven Saturday before catastrophe struck the planet, apologized Monday evening for not having the dates "worked out as accurately as I could have."

He spoke to the media at the Oakland headquarters of his Family Radio International, which spent millions of dollars_ some of it from donations made by followers — on more than 5,000 billboards and 20 RVs plastered with the Judgment Day message.

It was not the first time Camping was forced to explain when his prediction didn't come to pass. The 89-year-old retired civil engineer also prophesied the Apocalypse would come in 1994, but said later that didn't happen then because of a mathematical error.

Through chatting with a friend over what he acknowledged was a very difficult weekend, it dawned on him that instead of the biblical Rapture in which the faithful would be swept up to the heavens, May 21 had instead been a "spiritual" Judgment Day, which places the entire world under Christ's judgment, he said.

The globe will be completely destroyed in five months, he said, when the apocalypse comes. But because God's judgment and salvation were completed on Saturday, there's no point in continuing to warn people about it, so his network will now just play Christian music and programs until the final end on Oct. 21.

"We've always said May 21 was the day, but we didn't understand altogether the spiritual meaning," he said. "The fact is there is only one kind of people who will ascend into heaven ... if God has saved them they're going to be caught up."

Josh Ocasion, who works the teleprompter during Camping's live broadcasts in the group's threadbare studio sandwiched between an auto shop and a palm reader's business, said he enjoyed the production work but never fully believed the May 21 prophecy would come true.

"I thought he would show some more human decency in admitting he made a mistake," he said Monday. "We didn't really see that."

Follower Jeff Hopkins said he spent a good deal of his own retirement savings on gas money to power his car so people would see its ominous lighted sign showcasing Camping's May 21 warning. As the appointed day drew nearer, Hopkins started making the 100-mile round trip from Long Island to New York City twice a day, spending at least $15 on gas each trip.

"I've been mocked and scoffed and cursed at and I've been through a lot with this lighted sign on top of my car," said Hopkins, 52, a former television producer who lives in Great River, NY. "I was doing what I've been instructed to do through the Bible, but now I've been stymied. It's like getting slapped in the face."

Camping's hands shook slightly as he pinned his microphone to his lapel, and as he clutched a worn Bible he spoke in a quivery monotone about some listeners' earthly concerns after giving away possessions in expectation of the Rapture.

Family Radio would never tell anyone what they should do with their belongings, and those who had fewer would cope, Camping said.

"We're not in the business of financial advice," he said. "We're in the business of telling people there's someone who you can maybe talk to, maybe pray to, and that's God."

But he also said that he wouldn't give away all his possessions ahead of Oct 21.

"I still have to live in a house, I still have to drive a car," he said. "What would be the value of that? If it is Judgment Day why would I give it away?"

Apocalyptic thinking has always been part of American religious life and popular culture. Teachings about the end of the world vary dramatically — even within faith traditions — about how they will occur.

Still, the overwhelming majority of Christians reject the idea that the exact date or time of Jesus' return can be predicted.

Tim LaHaye, co-author of the best-selling "Left Behind" novels about the end times, recently called Camping's prediction "not only bizarre but 100 percent wrong!" He cited the Bible verse Matthew 24:36, "but about that day or hour no one knows" except God.

Camping offered no clues about Family Radio's finances Monday, saying he could not estimate how much had been spent advertising his prediction nor how much money the nonprofit had taken in as a result. In 2009, the nonprofit reported in IRS filings that it received $18.3 million in donations, and had assets of more than $104 million, including $34 million in stocks or other publicly traded securities.

For someone who studies his Bible he should pay more attention to:

Mark 13:31-33 (King James Version)
31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

Mark 13:31-33 (New International Version)
31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

(The Day and Hour Unknown)
32 ā€œBut about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Be on guard! Be alertšŸ…°! You do not know when that time will come.


Acts 1:6-7 (King James Version)
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

Acts 1:6-7 (New International Version)
6 Then they gathered around him and asked him, ā€œLord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?ā€
7 He said to them: ā€œIt is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority.

I'd say "false prophet" sums up this guy pretty well.
The Jehovah's Witnesses did the same thing, SEVERAL times. The last time they said it was gonna end was 1975. I remember it well,as my family was involved in that cult back then.
The scriptures Wayne posted says it all.
The bad part is, these false prophets look like idiots and give reasons for non Christians to remain non Christians.
All it takes to be a false prophet is to make ONE prophecy in God's name that doesn't come true, and BAM! You are a false prophet and should NEVER be trusted again.
This so called "preacher" thinks he can figure out what GOD says NO MAN can figure out?
That's reason enough to not trust in that guy.
Fact is, all Christians should be ready at ALL TIMES for the rapture. That does NOT mean stop everything and just sit on your hands looking at the sky.
Jesus IS coming back. It MIGHT be in our lifetimes, but it might NOT be.
We should be like the Boy Scout motto: Always be prepared!
