I'd Like To Say Something Before The World Ends Tomorrow

Mr Camping is full of poop.

There.

I said it.

I'm sure that Harold Camping really believes what he's promoting.

Luckily for all the sinners out there, and that includes the faithful (because we ALL sin -- only Jesus was perfect!), you probably still have time to get right with the Lord.

I say probably because none of us know when our day will come. It could be today. It could be tomorrow. It could be that the Lord doesn't call you home for another 50 years. Or you could have a heart attack and go Home tomorrow, on the day that Mr Camping has predicted.

I suspect that once it becomes clear that he's wrong again (don't forget his prediction of 1994), he's going to be quiet for a bit, then announce that he made a mistake and set a NEW date for the Rapture.

But as for tomorrow, not gonna happen.

If you're reading this, my Brothers and Sisters in Christ, and you're really upset about Mr Camping and his predictions, especially if you were one of his true believers, feel free to e-mail me. I'll be happy to talk to you and look up a local pastor for you.

Or a lawyer if you prefer, although unless you've thrown away your life's savings, I really wouldn't recommend spending your valuable resources on suing the man. Forgiveness truly is Divine and lawyers are very expensive.

In any case, do not lose heart. God is with you all the time and whether or not Mr Camping is right or wrong, he can't take God away from you. Not now, not ever. The Lord is not willing that ANY should be lost. That includes you.

So on Sunday, go to church and thank the Lord for the blessings that you have, the blessings you will receive, and the good life that the Lord has promised you.

And after church, gather with your family and break bread together. The storm will pass, the sun will shine, life will go on.

And on Monday, look up disaster preparedness and get your emergency plan in place. Just because Mr Camping is utterly wrong about the end of the world, doesn't mean that you won't eventually be in a disaster. But it will be just one of the regular earthly types -- earthquake, flood, fire, tornado, hurricane -- you know, the ones that happen to all of us.

The Lord is with you and me and even the unbelievers. They just don't know it yet. And the Lord is watching over them too, guiding them to a path that will lead them Home in the end.

We all go Home in the end.

Just not tomorrow...
