A Message for everyone at 6:01pm EST May 21st, 2011

Today is the day according to the latest and greatest prediction that the World will come to an end. Jesus is coming back today! Over the last 100 years, it has been predicted at least 100 times that the rapture was coming. Harold Camping through his study in numerology has determined that today, May 21st, 2011 at 6PM EST, Jesus will return for the rapture.

Let me leave a message for all of you on what to do at 6:01pm EST. First off, nothing will happen. While I agree Jesus is coming back, it will not be today at 6:00EST. I can say this with absolute certainty because it is what the Bible says:

Matthew 24:36--
New Living Translation (©2007)
"However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows.

Therefore, If the Angels don't know when and Jesus doesn't know when, Harold Camping doesn't know when. But what does this say to the people who may have believed? Is God real? Is Jesus Really coming back? Maybe this religion thing is just a scam and for the birds.

I. We are to look towards the Savior and not the Signs. We are to live EVERYDAY like it is our last night because as far as we know, IT IS. We don't watch the calendar, or the climate. We don't watch the Middle East or the latest earthquake or tornado, we keep our eyes fixed on Jesus. Keeping our eyes on Jesus will fix us to live in a state of expectancy. It may be today, it may be tomorrow, so I live everyday on the grace of God.

II. Preachers are to preach what the Bible says, not what we think it says! The Bible is the written, revealed Word of God. It does not need our spin, our thought, our interpretation, our opinion, it just needs obedience to the one that has called us to say what THUS SAYS THE LORD. Harold Camping spent over 1,000,000 dollars to give his opinion. How much more powerful could this amount have been if he would have used this to simply say, Jesus is coming back any day now GET READY.

III. The mistakes of man are not representative of God. We serve a God who cannot lie, does not change and who will not fail. God is real, even when the church falls short, his representatives fail, the preachers falls short, the deacon does not live according to the standard, GOD IS STILL REAL.

IV. at 6:01pm EST May 21,2001, GOD IS STILL ON THE THRONE. People will laugh, They will say religion is fake, preachers are pimps and charlatans, religion is the opium of the masses to keep the people calm and behaved, but God is still on the throne. He still has all power in heaven and earth in His hand, He still is coming back and although it wasn't at 6:00pm May 21st, 2011. IT IS COMING.

V. GET YOUR LIFE IN ORDER. Live everyday as some did today. If today was the last day, people called others, told family they loved one another, didn't sweat the small stuff, enjoyed life, slowed down. Well, you should live everyday like its your last day. Use this time to clean your house, sweep your porch, check your gutters. This is nothing but a GRACE MOMENT. God knew you weren't ready yet so HE still is giving you time.
