Oh, don’t get me wrong... I have no faith at all in Camping’s predictions.

I just don’t believe Revelations involves destroying the world, I believe that basically Jesus is supposed to return precisely to prevent that from happening.

If you mean "them" as followers of Camping, I would have to say "Yes." It seemed to me you were directing your comments to Christians in genral rather than just the Camping crowd.
I'm not trying to ignore the terrible floods that are occurring, but even as bad as the floods on the Mississippi, and even what happened in Japan may have been, it only affected a relatively small portion of the planet's population.
Then why the question about the earthquakes? They are of the same limited nature.

But he was talking about earthquakes taking place at one time all across the globe. That’s certainly different than an isolated earthquake happening in one place.
Now it’s true that the frequency is supposed to increase close to the end times, but the earthquakes alone won’t destroy the planet.

I most likely misunderstood your intent. Thanks for putting up with the questions.

Correction, American "Dispensationalism" is in the doldrums. We in the reformed "covenant theology" camp don't give a hoot about the date setters, other than their "comedy/tragedy" value. We know we will be ready "whenever", because we know that it is God that preserves us not our own little tendrils of "faith". Now, if only "covenant theology" were scriptural, you'd be all set.

Between the biblical ignorance of those who believe his datesetting, and the biblical ignorance of those who use his datesetting as an excuse to attack the legitimate biblical doctrines of the rapture, tribulation, millennial reign, and other scriptural eschatological positions, it’s hard to feel good about the state of American Christianity. There was a Remnant in Elisha's time. There is one in these times.

This is a very strange movie. It's worth watching, IMO.
