TO HAROLD CAMPING & OTHER FALSE PROPHETS: 99 REASONS WHY NO ONE KNOWS WHEN JESUS CHRIST WILL RETURN
Larry Wessels, director of Christian Answers of Austin, Texas/ Christian Debater (YouTube channel CANSWERSTV; websites: BIBLEQUERY.ORG, HISTORYCART.COM & MUSLIMHOPE.COM) presents another broadcast of his radio program “Christian Answers Live!” hosted by Lee Meckley. The special guest in this show is B. J. Oropeza, M.A.Th., Fuller Theological Seminary & the author of the book, “99 Reasons Why No One Knows When Christ Will Return.” Mr. Oropeza is a research associate at the Christian Research Institute (CRI) in Irvine, California, has appeared on radio talk shows such as the “Bible Answer Man” & “Talk New York” & has contributed to articles for “Christianity Today” & “Christian Research Journal.”
False prophets have predicted the return of Jesus Christ since shortly after His death & resurrection. The same old “return of Christ” lies concerning a specific date on the calendar continue to go on even today but with new twists that help false prophets make money off their book sales to the gullible. Lying prophets such as Harold Camping with his bestselling book “1994?” & Edgar C. Whisenant’s 4.5 million bestseller “Eighty-eight Reasons Why the Rapture Will Be in 1988” (& when that failed he came out with another book the following year that also sold many copies called “The Final Shout: Rapture Report 1989) continually make their money by setting false dates. Setting false dates for Armageddon & the Return of Christ have helped many cultic religions such as Jehovah’s Witnesses (see our YOUTUBE series “JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES: DECEIVED DECEIVERS”), the Mormons, Seventh-Day Adventists & many others (see “RISE OF THE CULTS: WHERE DID ALL THESE AMERICAN CULTS COME FROM” by Larry Wessels) gain followers & money. The phony Word-Faith TV preachers on the Trinity Broadcasting Network are just as guilty (John Hinkle predicted June 9, 1994 on TBN’s broadcast with Paul Crouch’s full blessing, see our 5 hour series “THE AGONY OF THE PHONY WORD-FAITH TV PREACHERS” with on YOUTUBE).
With every failed forecast, however, a trail of people is left behind, people who become disillusioned with Christ & Christianity. How can this be stopped? By understanding the clear, biblical teaching that Christ will return – but no one knows when! Christians need to discern false prophecy & not be deceived by predictions of what is to happen by “prophets” seeking “filthy lucre” (Titus 1:7,11).
This broadcast highlights why: 1. no one can know the date through wars, famines, earthquakes & disease, 2. no one can get around Matthew 24:36 & related passages, 3. no one can decode a secret date through numbers in Scripture, 4. no one knows who the antichrist is, 5. no one knows the date through sources outside of the Bible, 6. the fact that Israel has returned to Palestine does not necessarily mean that Christ will return in our generation, 7. the temple in Jerusalem is not currently being rebuilt, 8. we do not know that the current peace or conflicts in the Middle East will lead to the Battle of Armaggeddon, 9. we do not know that the former Soviet Union is Gog & Magog, 10. signs in the sky are not sufficient to tell us the time of the end, 11. the current increase of apostasy & sin does not tell us the date of the end, 12. the increase in technology does not indicate the date of the end, 13. visions, dreams & trances cannot give us correct end-time dates, 14. the predictions of modern-day “prophets” are not 100 percent accurate, 15. many modern-day “prophets” teach false doctrine, 16. Jeane Dixon is a false prophet, 17. David Koresh was not the Messiah, 18. New Age & Occult literature make false predictions, 19. UFO enthusiasts do not know the date of the end, 20. Calendars do not give the correct date of the end such as the Mayan calendar predicting the end in the year A.D. 2012, 21. Pyramids do not give the correct date of the end, 22. the prophecies of Nostradamus are not accurate, 23. the Dead Sea scrolls do not give us a date for the end, 24. the apparitions of Mary are misleading, 25. Jewish sources do not give us the correct date for the end, 26. Bible chronology does not give us the date of the end, 27. no one can get around Acts 1:7, 28. the original Greek language does not support date-setting, 29. Daniel’s twenty-three hundred evenings & mornings do not give us a date for the end, 30. the call to watch for the Lord’s coming does not mean we will know the date, 31. Jesus will come like a thief in the night for both believers & nonbelievers, 32. scripture does not give us a specific date for the end times & 67 other reasons.
