Today was a bizarre day of news. Birds are falling out of the sky and fish or floating to the surface of bodies of water, en masse, in Arkansas and Louisiana, mysteriously dead, Harold Camping of Family Radio, broadcasting out of Oakland, is declaring the end of the world to be May 21, 2011, the Mayan Calendar ends on December 21, 2012, and Barack Obama is once again letting go of key members of his administration. Those he lets go of will more than likely simply go under the radar of Washington to head his reelection campaign and the new faces he brings in will no doubt appease the masses who have disagreed with the majority of the decisions he has made up to this point.
Of all these odd goings-on, which have occurred very recently, I hesitate to admit that the birds and the fish suddenly dying in immense flocks and schools intrigue me the most.
Someone somewhere, no doubt, is going to proclaim any given day the last one and Barack Obama’s posturing and strategy is extremely unexciting and completely predictable. Politics are politics and they always will be. But birds falling out of the sky and fish floating on the surface of bodies of water---that is a very odd occurrence I can hardly wait to have explained!
Don’t drink the Kool-Aid and do not, for one second, think that Barack Obama regrets one single decision he has made regardless of how he politically postures himself otherwise over the next two years. Don’t mean to tell you how to think…just saying. America is two roads diverging and 2012 is where the fork in the road lies.
And definitely don’t drink the Kool-Aid.

Stamping Out Harold Camping
ReplyDeleteIs Second Coming date-setter Harold Camping worthy of death? He already has a zero batting average after his September 1994 prediction fizzle and, according to the Bible, is a false prophet.
Nevertheless that California shaman, who should be ashamed, claims he's found out that Christ's return will be on May 21, 2011 even though Matt. 24:36 says that no one knows the "day" or "hour" of it!
A Google article ("Obama Fulfilling the Bible") points out that "Deut. 18:20-22 in the Old Testament requires the death penalty for false prophets."
The same article reveals that "Christians are commanded to ask God to send severe judgment on persons who commit and support the worst forms of evil (see I Cor. 5 and note 'taken away')."
Theologically radioactive Harold Camping and his ga-ga groupies (with their billboards featuring "May 21, 2011") should worry about being "stamped out" if many persons decide to follow the I Cor. 5 command.
The above article concludes: "False prophets in the OT were stoned to death. Today they are just stoned!"

I certainly would not say Harold Camping is worthy of a death sentence, but his batting average is indeed a zero. Thanks for the informative scriptures and it is impressive how familiar you are with the Bible. I am just under 500 pages into the Old Testament and am eagerly, but slowly working towards reading the entire Bible. I agree, this man has no right to play God, and it speaks loudly of his reputation and credibility to feign such a role.
