The following is a message that God has been laying upon my heart to share with all those who were taken up by Harold Camping’s prophecy of Judgment Day on May 21 2011. Now that this date has been proven beyond a doubt to NOT be Judgment Day, and now that many of you have become disillusioned to Mr. Camping’s teachings after sacrificing much of your time, money and effort in support of this fallacy, I wanted to bring you the following message of caution, hope and love. First and foremost, remember that no matter what, God loves you. His promises are steadfast and true, regardless of what anyone says. The Bible is clear about God’s love for us:
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”
John 3:16-17 (KJV)The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
2 Peter 3:9 (KJV)This verse in 2 Peter is key. God wills that none should perish, but that all should be brought to salvation by His Grace through faith in Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 2:8-10) I caution you: do not be caught up in the next prophecy of Harold Camping. Rather than await Judgment in October, spiritually prepare yourselves DAILY for Christ’s return. For October 21 has just as much likelihood of being the day of Christ’s return as tomorrow, or a thousand years from now. Here is the evidence:
“But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.”
2 Peter 3:10 (KJV)“But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.”
Matt 24:36-42 (KJV)Therefore, do not quit your jobs, or sit at home and wait for Jesus to come back. Do not sell your homes and possessions to donate the proceeds to Family Radio or to further Harold Camping’s message. But rather live your life; Live life for Christ and His Kingdom daily. In this way you will be prepared for Judgment Day no matter when it occurs, and you will be a living testament to the Gospel of Jesus Christ to non-believers all around you.
The fruit of Harold Camping’s false prophecy has been revealed. And believe me it in and of itself is a sign of the end times. Christ had this to say of what will come to pass before the day of the Lord:
“And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”
Matt 24:11-12 (KJV)Harold Camping's message has done harm to many. Not only have your gifts of love been made waste, but our faith has come under scrutiny and ridicule from non-believers as a direct result of Camping's prediction being proved false. "The love of many" has waxed cold indeed. I have wept bitter tears over this fact alone. But we have no reason to fear Mr. Camping. The Bible tells us so:
“And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the Lord hath not spoken? 22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the Lord, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the Lord hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.”
Deut 18:21-22 (KJV)Harold Camping has failed not once, but twice, to speak the truth regarding God’s word and has thus revealed himself to be a false prophet as defined by the Bible. I pray, do not be deceived by him again, but live in love and hope through faith in your Lord Jesus Christ and the word of God alone.
This is my prayer and hope for you all: That the peace of our Lord which surpasses all human understanding will guard your heart and your mind in Christ Jesus. This I pray in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
