Haven't we heard this before?

                                           

     

 20But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
 21And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken?
 22When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him

Deuteronomy 18:20-22 (King James Version)

  He lied once before and he lies again and he should not be believed October 21, 2011 either. Unfortunately, there are some who will and will see the same thing come October 21, 2011. We do not stone people for this now and many have gone astray  and do not believe in God anymore . These people who don't believe in God look at people like Camping as a reason for laughter and slander against Christianity, an article to prove that their unbelief is really true ( and it isn't) and as a way to further marginalize the church from society by putting Christianity in one box. My favorite one box quote from the media is when they label false teachers and perverters of the faith as "Evangelical Christians"(Osteen and the TBN Group). My answer to their ignorance is where is the Good News( Evangelical Message) in what Camping teaches? Is his teaching in the Bible?

 The answer to that question is there is no Good News in Camping's message it is a product of the devil to further do destruction to the Church. The answer to question two: his teachings are not in the Bible and are twisting the false teaching of Calvinism and the patently false "Rapture" teaching. Camping's false teaching has done harm and will probably reverberate for a little while. However, let us take heart and be of good cheer that the Church has remained for over 2000 years and will until our Lord Jesus comes to redeem His own on Judgment Day. By the way, the great thing is that there will be no "Rapture" because we will all be going to Heaven ( all who believe in Christ) 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

As for those of us who still believe in the Reformation and the true teachings that sprung from it we must seperate ourselves from those who teach falsely and affirm the saving truths of the Reformation now more than ever.
