We know that the year 2011 is the 7000th year from the flood. We also know that God will destroy this world in that year. But when in 2011 will this occur?
TIMING OF IMPORTANT EVENTS IN HISTORY
11,013 BC—Creation. God created the world and man (Adam and Eve).
4990 BC—The flood of Noah’s day. All perished in a worldwide flood. Only Noah, his wife, and his 3 sons and their wives survived in the ark (6023 years from creation).
7 BC—The year Jesus Christ was born (11,006 years from creation).
33 AD—The year Jesus Christ was crucified and the church age began (11,045 years from creation; 5023 calendar years from the flood).
1988 AD—This year ended the church age and began the great tribulation period of 23 years (13,000 years from creation).
1994 AD—On September 7th, the first 2300-day period of the great tribulation came to an end and the latter rain began, commencing God’s plan to save a great multitude of people outside of the churches (13,006 years from creation).
2011 AD—On May 21st, Judgment Day will begin and the rapture (the taking up into heaven of God’s elect people) will occur at the end of the 23-year great tribulation. On October 21st, the world will be destroyed by fire (7000 years from the flood; 13,023 years from creation).
Dang, I’ve been sitting up waiting for the end of the world. I wouldn’t want to sleep through something like that. Ya’ just never know when you’ll get to see something that historical again. :sarcastic:
My understanding is the Rapture is scheduled for 6 P.M. local time (not certain as to whether that is adjusted for daylight savings). Given there aren’t any reports of widespread destruction and folks floating up into the sky from Australia, New Zealand, Japan, etc., does this mean another swing and a miss for the Harold Camping?
But I’m sure he just dropped a decimal point or something and another date for doom will be forthcoming. Along with another appeal for generous donations to his Family Media broadcasting and publishing conglomerate, with assets estimated at around $100 million. :rolleyes:
The sad thing is a lot of these clowns have sold everything, quit their jobs, have no plans or financial support past today. Many of these people have kids.
Oh, not to worry. I’m sure the good Reverend Camping will see that his flock is properly cared for and compensated for any financial losses they may have suffered based on his scriptural interpretation. :jester:
M4C members might want to pay particular attention to item #3 in the video-- the prohibition against going on killing sprees, settling blood feuds, etc. :no:
Karl Marx might have had his head up his ass about a lot of things, put the quip about religion being “the opium of the people” was right on the money. But, hey, sheep were made to be shorn, right?
Any “Christian” that claims to know when the world will end or the Rapture will occur (if you take that part of Revelation literally)… is quite simply, a heretic.
Search the scriptures, Jesus Himself said that “only the Father knows”. There are many good reasons for people not to know when the end will come, only that it will.
I know most people think that Harold Camping is insane, stupid, or both. But I got to hand it to the old boy, how much money has he raked in over the years selling his “product”?
