How can Family Radio be so bold as to declare a date for Christ's return?
Given the overwhelming biblical evidence, the Family Stations, Inc. Board of Directors made a determination to dedicate all available resources to proclaim the warning of May 21, 2011. God has prepared Family Radio for this important time in history. Given the population of the world, radio and the internet are the perfect vehicles to deliver this warning.
What proof is there for the date of May 21, 2011?
The date May 21, 2011 was derived solely from evidence found in the Bible. Mr. Camping saw God had placed, in Scripture, many important signs and proofs. These proofs alert believers that May 21st of 2011 is the date Christ will return for His people and begin a period of the final destruction of the world.
I never said that as a blanket statement. I've said there are times to take it literally and times not to.IS, Starman, 2A, et al. have said biblical literalism is the way to TRUTH, so I guess we have no choice but to believe Mr. Camping's pronouncement.
Of course, there are parables, which were not meant to be taken literally. Generally, you and Mr. Camping have more in common than you care to admit.I never said that as a blanket statement. I've said there are times to take it literally and times not to.
The 1994 date could have been a test of some sort for the faithful. :shrug:Camping is a pathetic old FOOL. He's made a similar prediction for September 1994 and it NEVER happened and yet his faithful fools still support his craziness.
I have seen a couple shows on the purported Bible Code. Why do you disbelieve it?God didn't hide some secret number codes in the Bible for us to tell when things would happen.
Your perspective is skewed my friend, so I won't take that the wrong way.Generally, you and Mr. Camping have more in common than you care to admit.

Because it's not there; plain & simple. Since when did TV shows become an authority? The Davinci Code was another farce.hvp05 said:I have seen a couple shows on the purported Bible Code. Why do you disbelieve it?

I was not attempting to hurt your feelings - as if I could - but there are some similarities. You think he's a clear moonbat. But to many folks the only major difference is that he has put a date on THE END whereas you do not specify such. He claims he believes in the Bible and only the Bible just as you do, so who am I to tell him he's wrong?Your perspective is skewed my friend, so I won't take that the wrong way.
Does your god not test your faith? Yet you continue to believe, sure that you are right. Just as they are.No chance, other than to help us be more discerning...
The show was not the authority, but the people on it. They appeared to be well-educated and serious in their contentions. It is an interesting idea.Since when did TV shows become an authority? The Davinci Code was another farce.
You agreed with IS?!?!OMG we agree!

I would tell him if I could, as many others have already done. And I'm not mad or hurt. You just said: "we have more in common than I'd admit" and, while he & I do have some common ground, many of his teachings are clearly wrong. This would be a good lesson for people regarding false Bible teachers. God clearly said no one knows when the last day is but Camping tries to act like he does. Maybe people will see this and stop listening to him but I won't hold my breath...I was not attempting to hurt your feelings - as if I could - but there are some similarities.

Sure but I don't say things that are totally unbiblical as he's done more than once. I guarantee that Starman, 2A, PsyOps and maybe even UNA would light me up if I said I knew when the end of the world is.hvp05 said:Does your god not test your faith?

HEY!! It's a start...You agreed with IS?!?!
Actually there's been thousands of end of the world predictions and everyone's been wrong, so where's the party going to be?I know it's crazy!! I agree that Camping is crazy, I love when these end of days people come out! I bet there has been at least a dozen "end of days" predictions since humans first realized there might be an end. But you'd think they'd have learned! always fun! Party on May 21st!!!!!

Like many people I know who are not Christians as well. I can't tell you how many of them came to me to discuss Dan Brown's fiction and proclaiming the content as established historical facts.People took The DaVinci Code waaaaay too seriously.

Sadly they also take Zeitgeist and Loose Change as facts also.
I wouldn't call my sister an idiot by any stretch, nor many that believed much of what Dan Brown peddles at "truth".Wirelessly posted
There will always be idiots
It was just a good book, I loved it!
I would not call them idiots either, not collectively anyhow.I wouldn't call my sister an idiot by any stretch, nor many that believed much of what Dan Brown peddles at "truth".
You'd be surprised how many people think stuff like that is true. Just look how many people think Obama wasn't born in Hawaii.
