I am sure that there is forgiveness for Brother Camping"
Uh, I doubt it, if he truly said the above. We are saved by our faith. Kooky idea don't cut it.

Dang, and I was all packed... I guess I’ll have to buy my house back.
OH NOES!
The illustrations (such as the one above) for the booklet were done by Basil Wolverton who also did cartoons for "MAD Magazine":
Damn! And I was all packed too.
Well, how eclectic of Camping: "Jesus did not die on Calvary, but that was merely a "manifestation" -- is similar to Muslim teaching...as some say the "manifestation" was a disciple "substitute" in Jesus' place...
No "hell" as the Bible clearly describes...well, that's the cults of Mormonism and Seventh-day Adventism...
As for date-setting, well that belong to the cults of Seventh-day Adventism (Ellen White in the 19th century) and the Jehovah's Witnesses (several dates given by the Witnesses thru the years...)
As for "Satan is in charge of all the churches except his" -- well, that's a host of cults, including Mormonism--specifically the Book of Mormon. In 1 Nephi 14:9-10, the BoM says there's only TWO churches...Satan's and the Lamb of God. (And guess who the Mormon church says is the church of the Lamb of God? That's right...ONLY the Mormon church...which in Doctrines & Covenant 1:30 claims to be the "only true and living church on the face of the earth."
So, just call Camping a Mormo-Muz-Adventist-Witness!
You may say to yourselves, How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the LORD? If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the LORD does not take place or come true, that is a message the LORD has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously, so do not be alarmed. Deut.18:21-22
Wait, I am a little confused by the article. Camping didn’t cancel the rapture did he? We’re still on for May 21st?
Darn...I went for that full living room of furniture with no payments until May 22, 2011. I’m screwed.
My wife and I were on a road trip this past weekend, and we noted SEVERAL billboard signs advertising “The Rapture” coming on 5.21.
I’m don’t consider myself a ‘practicing’ religious person, but I hope it happens. That would be so cool to see during our lifetimes!
I hate Apocalypse interruptus.
“I hope this is not the case with Harold Camping as he finds himself still on earth with mud on his face for depending too much on his own “special revelation” and knowledge, come Monday morning, May 22, 2011”
Monday?
Have a low power TV station and FM radio station in area
Cablevision carries their TV broadcasts
Camping looks and sounds like Lurch from the “ADAMS FAMILY”
