May 21, 2011 Staying Grounded In The Word Of God

Matthew 24:36&44 — 36 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.
44 "Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

                                              

SCRIPTURAL DESCRIPTIONS OF A FALSE PROPHET:

Deuteronomy 18 v 20
. 20 But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded him to say, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, must be put to death.”
 21 You may say to yourselves, “How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the LORD ?” 22 If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the LORD does not take place or come true, that is a message the LORD has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously. Do not be afraid of him.
Jeremiah 14:14
Then the LORD said to me, “The prophets are prophesying lies in my name. I have not sent them or appointed them or spoken to them. They are prophesying to you false visions, divinations, idolatries and the delusions of their own minds.
Jeremiah 23:16
This is what the LORD Almighty says: “Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you; they fill you with false hopes. They speak visions from their own minds, not from the mouth of the LORD

            

                Don't try to out-smart God!
                 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For
                 it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness
                                         (1 Corinthians 3:19~KJV)
                        
                  

   

Harold Camping's calculations predicting the Day of Judgment

Harold Camping

May 19, 2011

This isn’t a recent prediction. He mentioned its possibility in his book 1994? in which he suggested the rapture might occur on September 7 of that year. But if it didn’t, he said, then it would definitely happen on May 21, 2011, due to a difference in calculations. So give him credit. He’s got quite a few years invested in this prediction.
 Harold Camping doesn’t care if you quote Matthew 24:36 to him. That well-known verse states, “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even
the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.” Camping uses 1 Cor. 2:10-14 to redefine what “no one knows” means, and says that the saved CAN know because they are indwelt by God’s spirit. The wicked don’t know, unfortunately. But even though Matthew 24:36 says Jesus won’t know either, well that’s just wrong, Camping says. Of course Jesus will know. Because Jesus and God are one.
