Magical Sailor Fuku

I heard some guy is predicting the Rapture will commence tommorrow, May 21, 2011. Really? I remember that Matthew 24:36 says that no one knows the hour or the day.

This same guy predicted such in 1994, and inspired the Heaven's Gate Cult to kill themselves. Instead of beaming aboard the mothership, they will find themselves in a very dark place called Hell.

False prophets have arisen to deceive many, according to the Bible. All promise their followers some sort of reward for their faith....In the olden days, false prophets were stoned to death when their prophesies never came true. So, if we survive (which we will) and Sunday rolls around, I will be in church worshipping the true God.

Haha! My friends and I were talking about 24:36 today because of that, actually! It's funny seeing idiots scream nonsense at other idiots.

Someone should start keeping count of all the 'end of the worlds' that have happened so far.

Well, I know of these two E.O.T.Ws that columnist Dave Barry remarked on back in the late 80s, early 90s or so, but that's about it.

When Rome sacked Jerusalem and persecuted the Christians, many people believed the end of the world was coming. Black Plague, 14th Century, Middle Ages, Crusades, Reformation, and many other events came and went. Empires rose and fell, but one Kingdom will never end.

Many have tried to determine the end of the world. There must 1st be a falling away, and that is already happening. Many false prophets come to say "Here He is," yet they should not be trusted. No one knows the hour or the day, not the angels, or the Son of Man (Jesus), but God Himself knows.

Jesus told a parable of the wise and foolish virgins, preparing for a wedding feast. 5 maidens had plenty of oil in their lamps, and the foolish ones did not. When the foolish maidens went to get oil, the bridegroom was announced. The wise maidens went to the marriage supper at the appointed time, but the foolish ones could not enter.

Oh, the CDC is preparing for a possible zombie outbreak!

Well, May 21 has come and went, and I am typing this to inform you that i am still here. I survived by thr Grace of God. Now I need to get ready for church and hear what my pastor has to say about the weekend events.

There were no big earthquakes, no people suddenly leaving, FAIL!

In regard to this topic, no book of the bible could be better referenced than Daniel. Not only does it show how unnecessary living by the bible or congregating at churches are (which usually inspire this kind of nonsense), but how to be vigilant against the trickery of your fellow man. I mean, seriously. Doing anything beyond praying to god, in the name of your faith, might as well be the devil's work (or at the very least will simply lead one astray).

I'm no history buff, but I'm almost certain that the Jews were the ones being persecuted at the time. If there were any Christians, I'd expect them to be quite a minority, considering Rome's attack on Jerusalem happened only a few decades after the death of Jesus.

well there was persecution, just not quite yet.
