It appears that 89-year-old radio preacher, Harold Camping, wasn't accurate on his mathematical equation of the end of the world. On Sunday, a representative said Camping was "somewhat bewildered and mystified". As a Christian, pastor, and more importantly, a person who reads the Bible I find it odd that Camping would be either bewildered or mystified. His predictions went in the face of Biblical truth that gives specific signs of the times that must happen first (& not all of them have yet) as well as the verses that declare that no one will know the day and hour as well as the rapture being at at time we wouldn't expect. At some point, Camping must have ignored the loving correction & accountability of many other prominent pastors & Christian leaders. Ultimately this can be added to the list of "Ridiculous Christian Moments" where even those of us who never believed or agreed with the prediction get lumped in with those who are more false prophet than Christian. (For more info on Harold Camping, his organization, and his lucrative financial empire please click this link.)But regardless of this debunk prediction let me make be clear; the end is STILL near! We will never know the day, the hour, or the moment it will happen. But scripture is clear, Jesus is still coming back for his church. The Bible gives us some important signs that declare we are closer today than ever before to the rapture of the church. Take advantage of this embarrassing situation and turn it around for great discussion with those who are looking for REAL answers.
Have a GREAT day!

This is an added example of last days when apostate men are raising the flag toward higher skepticism about any of the other issues such as Christ's death, burial and resurrection as well as his return and the especially the validity of the scriptures as a whole.
