Beggars All: Reformation And Apologetics: NPR Picks up on Harold Camping

As May 21st approaches I expected more of the secular media to be talking more about Harold Camping and his ministry. His gall amazes me. He was wrong about 1994. There was no rapture. Why does he think (why does anyone think) this time will be different? Jesus said no one but the Father knows.That's good enough for me. Jesus did not tell us when He would return. He was clear. We don't need to waste time trying to figure out when. We just need to be ready. Instead of asking yourself when it will happen or if it will happen, we should be asking are we ready? I appreciate James Swan for pointing these NPR reports out.

  1. I believe Camping would say that though no man knew the day nor hour when Jesus walked the earth, they do now, or something along those lines. I don't think Camping is a conniver; I think he has a serious personality defect like many who lead churches astray. Problem is, the gospel becomes not "Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved," but "Believe Harold Camping or thou shalt not be saved." I have a relative ensnared in this false gospel. Praying that on May 22, the disillusioned will realize that belief in errant religious leaders is a common problem and that they will re-examine their beliefs rather than take extreme measures.
