How to Calculate when Jesus will Come – without even being a prophet!
Download the entire article here: Shogren_How to calculate when Jesus will come I originally wrote this as a response to the outbreak of Blood Moon Fever and the Shemitah Virus - remember those false panics? - and more broadly, to the rapidly-spreading epidemic of predictions of Jesus’ near return between 2015-2017. And people predicted 2018, 2019,... Continue Reading →
“Four Blood Moons” and a false prophet

1 Thess 4:17 – “meet the Lord in the air” in the original Greek [Studies in Thessalonians]

For Camping’s followers: it’s May 22, let’s have a serious talk
May 21 has come and gone. You won’t hear an “I told you so” from this Christian. No jokes. No funny looks. No condescending pity. Only concern.

Please also see my blog after May 22: http://justinofnablus.com/2011/05/22/for-campings-followers-its-may-22-lets-have-a-serious-talk/ There are thousands of followers of Family Radio who believe that the Lord will return on May 21, 2011. I have read the material of Harold Camping and am thoroughly convinced that his calculations are groundless. He is a man of boundless imagination but he uses... Continue Reading →
Let’s put a warning label on false prophets
Link - How to calculate when Jesus will come - without even being a prophet! My wish is simple, and it would make me so very happy.
