Beggars All: Reformation And Apologetics: Now that Judgment Day Has Arrived, What Will Family Radio Play?

The end of the world!Image by Newbirth35 via FlickrI was wondering what Camping would be teaching now? A caller called into Open Forum and asked him. She got the following instructions..... I mean....this is what Family Radio is gonna do.

1. Stop witnessing
2. No more tracts (can't have written documentation, y'know)
3. Play comforting music.
4. Read your Bible.

Summary:
So 1988, the Church came under Judgment...he says.
Now the whole earth is under judgment and no one else who was saved before May the 21st can be saved. And you can't know if you were saved.

Conclusion:
More lies. No repentance. The Bible says no  such things.

Beggars All: Reformation And Apologetics: Fearful Teen Commits Suicide Due to Harold Camping's Judgment Day Prediction

Harold Camping in 2008                         Image via WikipediaI thought that some people could be pushed by Harold Camping's propaganda into extreme and dangerous acts of desperation. A 14 year-old girl in Russia committed suicide because she thought she missed the rapture. A young man from Florida drowned when he jumped into the reservoir in Contra Loma Regional Park in Antioch, CA. I'm sure that Harold Camping does not really think he is responsible for this or anyone. The Bible tells us that people who teach his word are responsible for we teach others. Even if our government does not hold Camping responsible, God does  Jesus said:.

6 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. 7 Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come! - Matthew 18:6-7


This is a great article. Here are some valuable resources about what is currently happening with this story.
