The damage this Nut does to the message Christians are trying to get out to the unsaved is unmanageable. Using phrases like “The Bible Guarantees It”, only makes it harder for our missionaries and evangelist to discuss the Gospel with those who don’t know the Bible, particularly in foreign lands where much of his advertising was done.
And when discussing prophecy and end-time events with others we will be forever doing damage control, when they come back with “wasn’t that supposed to happen back in May of 2011?”.
This is why Jesus gave a special warning in Mathew 24:11 “And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.”
Yes. And one of these predictions will seem to come true because an event will occur and the media will cover it exclusively. Too many will forget that the Bible tells us that every eye will see His return. That means, if you first see it on TV or in a paper, it didn't happen and the Evil One is gearing up for his final defeat...but will attempt to take as many souls with him as he can.
