Harold Camping: Rapture Rescheduled for October 21, Twitter Laughs On

Why the fuss. Since Obama just rolled back the clock by 3 years, 5 months, we all have time to prepare...

Sad thing is his followers are not abandoning him. They will fall just as easily for the Oct 21 date. This is why Jesus gave a special warning against false prophets, knowing how they can trap people in their snare and getting out is next to impossible. Jim Jones comes to mind.

Oct 21st is my 50th birthday ... should I have my cake at lunchtime ? ? ?

I am currently reading this book. A much different story than Camping's

BTW, this book was written in 1881; you wouldn't believe how accurate it is!

Reading this book was one of the greatest graces of my life!"
— St. Thérèse of Lisieux

In the late nineteenth century, Father Charles Arminjon, a priest from the mountains of southeastern France, assembled his flock in the town cathedral to preach a series of conferences to help them turn their thoughts away from this life’s mean material affairs—and toward the next life’s glorious spiritual reward. His wise and uncompromising words deepened in them the spirit of recollection that all Christians must have: the abiding conviction that heavenly aims, not temporal enthusiasms, must guide everything we think, say, and do.

When Father Arminjon’s conferences were later published in a book, many others were able to reap the same benefit—including fourteen-year-old Thérèse Martin, then on the cusp of entering the Carmelite convent in Lisieux. Reading it, she says, “plunged my soul into a happiness not of this earth.” Young Thérèse, filled with a sense of “what God reserves for those who love him, and seeing that the eternal rewards had no proportion to the light sacrifices of life,” copied out numerous passages and memorized them, “repeating unceasingly the words of love burning in my heart.”

Now the very book that so inspired the Little Flower is available for the first time in English.

Let the pages of The End of the Present World and the Mysteries of the Future Life fill you with the same burning words of love, with the same ardent desire to know God above all created things, that St. Thérèse gained from them. Let them also enrich your understanding of certain teachings of the Faith that can often seem so mysterious, even frightening:

The signs that will precede the world’s end
The coming of the Antichrist, and how to recognize him
The Judgment and where it may send us: heaven, hell, and purgatory
Biblical end-times prophecy: how to read it and not be deceived
Jesus commands us to be ever-watchful for his return, and ever-mindful that we have no lasting city on earth. The End of the Present World and the Mysteries of the Future Life is an invaluable aid to inculcating in your spirit that heavenly orientation, without which true human happiness cannot be found—in this world or the next.

It is a friday, and I think that is my weekend off as well.
That sucks

That’s a very good analogy. This is exactly like Al Gore and his church of global warming disaster. Prediction after prediction fail but yet they still believe.
