What gives one man, one human being the gall, the pride to say that he knows more then Yeshua of Nazareth? Does Scripture not say, "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only" (Matthew 24:36). When Christ Himself walked this earth He did not know the day or hour. With that being said how does Harold Camping purpose to be the answer to the divine question of when the Rapture shall occur?
The answer my friends is easy and it fits into a simple formula of false doctrine. Allow me to elaborate...when one, anyone, takes the words of the Bible as an analogy as Harold Camping does, we can change the meaning to whatever our heart desires it to be. Yet, Camping doesn't just change Scripture, he takes the entire Bible as an analogy, as a parable, and in doing this he can come up with his scenarios of dates and times. But the fact of the matter is is that you cannot pick and choose what you like or dislike out of the Bible. We must either take the Bible as a whole or toss it away, what Harold Camping is doing is simply false doctrine.
At the same time what Camping is doing is within Scripture, for the Bible states that, "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world" (1 John 4:1). We have tried Harold Camping's spirit and he has failed, not once, but twice; first in 1994 and then last Saturday. He has now proven himself a false prophet and should now be treated as such.
Precious Lord, let us have pity on men such as Harold Camping and may those men and women who fall victims to false prophets such as Harold Camping be given a measure of protection against this evil form of pride. Adonai, we welcome Your return on whatever day or time You choose it to be. In Jesus' name. Amen.
