Almost everyone has heard of the recent claims made by Harold Camping. He said that the world was going to end and 6:00 pm last Saturday(May 21, 2011). Saturday night came and guess what: Nothing happened. This guy looked crazy to begin with, now he looks even worse. He says that he was wrong and that there will not be 5 months of torment (like he originally predicted) and that the the world will end right after the rapture on October 21, 2011; the day right before the anniversary of the great disappointment.

The good news is that the radio station will take down it's bill boards and will stop lecturing the world that the end is near. It will be nice to get a break from the constant bombardment of these claims from the media. The guy does seem very believable and right in what he is saying, until you stop to think about it. He is human and is claiming that he knows for sure that the world is going to end on the dates he predicted. He is becoming a prophet.

He said that there would be earth quakes in New Zealand before the rapture took place. There were no earth quakes. He said it with no basis to support it. He claims to have this vast worked out time line that predicted the rapture. I never saw a time line. He also disagrees with the bible. “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him. Matthew 24:42-44 He claims to have the truth but the Bible says no one will. Harold seems to be a false prophet. I don't know how this all will turn out but, it will be interesting to watch how the next 5 months go.
