new date for doomsday?

Amazingly, despite the obvious lack of
violent natural disasters and 200 million
raptured believers, Harold Camping still
believes that he was correct about the
day. He says he misunderstood the
exact nature of what would take place on May 21, but that Judgement Day did in
fact happen as predicted. He now says it
took the form of a more spiritual
coming/Judgement that we can't see.
He was wrong about physical
earthquakes and etc., but he claims that the dates and everything else is still God-
revealed truth. This new insight, of course, brings up the
question. If he misunderstood the nature
of Judgement Day, how can we believe
that he correctly understands the nature
of October 21. Perhaps it will also be a
"spiritual destruction" that we can't see? Quotes from Camping's open
interview May 23rd On May 23, 2011, Camping held a special
public Q&A forum for reporters. Here are
a few of the "highlights": Regarding the end of the world: "the end is 5 months away now." When asked about setting a new
date (Oct 21): "...we've always said October 21 was
the day, that's not new. I'm not setting a
new date at all. I'm only saying that we
didn't understand all together the
spiritual meaning of what, eh.: May 21
was a day when Christ came and put the world under judgement. Absolutely,
there's a big change in the world.
They're under judgement where they
were not on May 20, they are under
judgement; and that, that, that, that
hasn't changed it's only that uh were' seeing this as a spiritual thing happening
rather than a physical thing happening
and but the, the, the timing, the
structure, the proofs, the signs; none of
that has changed at all. None. None at
all. And, and it's just amazing what God has has shown us in so far as it proofs
and timings." Speaking of May 21st, "Judgement
Day": "...I was wrong. It was to be understood
spiritually, not, uh, not uh, uh physi,
physically and yet the sense of it is still
the same. That judgement has come. It
the world is now under judgement
where it was not prior to May 21. Spiritually there is a big difference in the
world that we can't detect it all with our
eyes, but we can know from the bible." When asked who is a true believer,
who will be saved: "The fact is there's only one kind of
people that will ascend into heaven and
that has nothing to do with any religious.
They could be a Hinduist, they could be a
Muslim or whatever. If God has saved
them they're going to be caught up. And God, in fact it's interesting, this is very
significant: in the bible, again and again,
when it talks about the end of the world,
it says the last shall be first and the fist
shall be last. That's repeated several
times and that has some *very* important spiritual significance. Because
'the last' are those who know the least
about the bible, who have probably
never heard the bible before till they got
the message through uh the media and
through Family Radio activity that May 21 is Judgement Day. And uh, and uh
they, uh they, they, they they they got
that came from the bible and so they
they have heard the word of God, and if
God has decided to save them, and God
knows whom he, whom he is going to save, they don't have to know all about
the bible. They don't have to know
about, about uh, uh all the things that we
learn in the scriptures, they just have to
know God has spoken and I, (speaking
now as a person praying for salvation) 'oh, God have mercy on me, have, God
have mercy on me' and that can be any,
any one, at, at all it isn't [illegible word]
in fact those who are 'the first' they're
the ones that've had the bibles all their
years and they have, they're not, the're not, they don't have an understanding of
the truth of the bible. They have their
own understanding." Q: "Does it worry you that you have
hurt the credibility and made a
mockery in some ways of
religion?": "oh, no, I don't no, no, excuse me just
like what I've said before there is no
pastor in the world, that, that -- that's not
the right statement. Most pastors would
never admit they make a mistake
because they are trying to run a bi., uh, preserve their own credibility in the
eyes of those who are listening or
maybe they insist they are maintaining
the present credibility of the bible. But
the fact is they're not. They're not." Comments It is true that October 21 is not a new
date. Mr. Camping has said all along that
May 21 was Judgement Day, but that the
end would be October 21. Camping is not
asserting a new date, he is affirming his
original timeline with a "minor" tweak: Judgement Day was more "spiritual"
than it was physical. What does the Bible say about
Christ's second Coming? Christ's first coming was literal,
something we could see: 2 Peter 1:16 16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known
unto you the power and coming of our
Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty. Christ's second coming will be physical,
like His first coming: Acts 1:11 11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from
you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
