There is yet another prophecy that saids that judgement day is May 21, 2011. This same issue about jesus coming back to earth to judge the living and the dead was raised in 1994 which did not happen.
What do you think poeple? Is the world really coming to an end?
If so are you READY?
The Bible clearly states that nobody knows the date of Jesus' return. Only God the Father knows the exact day and time that Jesus will Rapture His Church and the Tribulation will then begin sometime after.
And will this be forever true ...
When I was five ... It was true that no one knew the day or hour that I would get my first kiss from a girl.
And in hind sight ..... I don't remember even now.
In 30 AD No one knew the day or hour of his coming again.
Is that statement forever true?
no, not until everyone forgives everyone, and that will take millions of years!! If we wear this planet out, we'll just move to another one!!
who set that up?!
I am trying to be ready every day!
If true, we are but merely 15 days away from the world ending so everyone bend over and kiss your a$$ goodbye! I think not?
But Dave, think about it, this may very well be the Rapture you're all dying to experience.
Not a chance for no one will know in advance the day of the rapture or Jesus return or of armegeddon and the end of time.
Exactly my point, Dave. They don't know and you don't know for sure. Hence, it is as probable to occur as any other wild guess.
not a chance it will happen as this human predicts on the date he predicts.
Dave, that is indeed a very bold claim to make. How are so certain of yourself? How do you know for sure? Are you saying you can predict the future?
No I cannot predict the future but I do know that God's day of the rapture and the seven years of tribulation leading up to armegeddon God has said he will not reveal to any man therefore for a man to predict such and such a date as the date it will happen is a bold lie from that man. There will be some date off in mankind's future that this will all take place but it will never be revealed prior to its happening.
I am a very bold spoken man when it comes to my God and what he has said. No I cannot predict the future but I know that Jesus told us that neither the date nor the time of His returning will be revealed to man, that not even Jesus knows the date, only God the Father knows. No man may know the exact date of the rapture, the great tribulation, or armegeddon except God so for this man to predict any date is a lie.
Amen Dave! No man knows the hour except God the Father, not even Jesus knows the exact date and time! The Bible clearly tells us that. Many scoff and mock the Bible, but God's Word has endured for over 2000 years. Many of the events prophesized in the Old Testament have come true or will come true. Yes, man wrote the Bible, but only by direction of the Holy Spirit. The Bible IS God's Word, written for us by a loving and awesome God who cares about everyone, even those that don't believe. But even though He is a loving God, the evil and sin in this world will be judged and the world condemned when His patience runs out. The Rapture will happen and those left behind will endure horrors beyond comprehension...just read the Book of Revelations. I pity those who are left behind and eventually be condemned to the Lake of Fire unless they get wise and accept Jesus as their Savior. I admire Dave Mathews for standing up to the unbelieving world. As a follower of Jesus, we know we that spread the Gospel will face persecution and mockery, just as Jesus did. God Bless you Dave!!!!
Ah sez I's be ready with a pint in me hand.
In the other hand, Ah'll have a pint fo' him.
From what source did you derive this information? I have never heard of it.
For God's sake Christ did not tell us this day would be revealed to anyone. Why then do people love to thwart the truth face to face?
Nobody knows the day that it will happen. People have been saying that the world was going to end as long as there has been a world and people. Funny enough May 21st is my birthday and I will be 29 this year. The running joke amongst my family and friends is that God must not want me to turn 30 hence why he is ending the world on my 29th birthday :-). But seriously please do not start becoming chaotic and hunkering down underneath your bed. The world may never end or maybe it will end tomorrow or maybe you'll get hit by a bus, who knows. That is the point that we do not know our own destinies only God does and anyone wasting time trying to figure it out is losing out on embracing the life they have now.
Don't worry; it is just a superstions; there in neither anyting in the science nor in the religion that the world is going to end on May 21st
That sign is posted everywhere in my area. To be honest it makes me laugh, but at least it has people talking about God.
Not happening, but our Church is having a wonderful service on that day!
There's also a lot of ambiguity as to what the Rapture actually entails. I know a few who believe it to be the time where the shape-shifting lizard aliens come to summon all of the Christians to their vessels in order to use their bodies to fuel their mothership . . . after which they will undoubtedly nuke the rest of us into oblivion. And if that turns out to be the case, I'd rather be down here in the fiery ash.
even jesus does not know the day rapture will come. how come we mere mortal dare predict the date. i think what they are only doing is making the atheist believ there is no God
Gifty:
I'm serious!
Who is this jesus guy you speak of so reverently?
I've heard the name bandied about so often, but everytime I ask who it is, no one seems to 'KNOW."
Do you "KNOW" who it is?
Pls be sure you "KNOW" the definition of the word "KNOW" before ya answser...ok?
I get alota opinions but that's all they are.
Thanks.
Qwark

Hey Curious:
Lol...you wasted alot of time on that which you consider to be a "bogus" question and was not even meant to be considered and responded to by you. :
I "KNOW" you well enuf to "KNOW" what an answer from you would be.
My Question was aimed at "Gifty."
Pls, be kind and let "Gifty" respond to my very serious question and "Giftys" enlightening response.
You have every right to respond to my question, but your responses are trite and expected...I can't take them seriously.
I'll give ya credit for a try. :
Qwark
Yes, well I was attempting to save gifty from a smarmy and asinine response from you when she misjudged your question as sincere. Sue me.
Hey Qwark,I know you love poety. Nice on though
If God and Jesus and the Holy spirit are all the same person...Then how can one of them not know the day and the other does...This would imply that you believe in more than one god and there is no such thing as the trinity.
That is well said. THE DAY AND THE HOUR NEITHER THE SON, NOR ANY OF THE ANGELS KNOW. How come this 21st May 2011 and 21st December 2012. It's all part of the antiques of the antichrist.
Similarly nothing will happen on Dec 21st 2012. On the morning of 22nd, I shall have a bacon sandwich.
12-21-2021
Something WILL happen!
Our solar system will officially pass through the galactic plane!
Isn't it funny how the Mayan had such deep an thorough understanding of our solar system, even more so than the Europeans and their telescopes?
I will prolly have my usual cup of coffee, but I'll set a reminder to join you on the bacon sandwich endeavor :-D
What?!? Nothing is going to happen? I've been telling everyone who wants me to do some real work that I'll get to it starting December 22, 2012, with the full expectation that the world will end the day before and I will never have to do it. Now you go and enlighten me, and it looks like I'll have a ton of stuff to do by the end of next year. Crap... guess I better get an early start. Now where are those dang paint brushes?
Better not be! I'm ready to party Memorial day weekend, and booked my Mardi Gras weekend in August. So, the end of the world is going to have to wait!!
Well, it's certainly an important date for me! I'll be in Washington DC at a protest rally for Lyme Disease sufferers!
Woo-hoo, look out!
Let's put this in perspective. The theory of 2012 came from the Mayans --a now extinct race of humans. As for 'rapture' --no such animal ever mentioned in any Torah or 'new testament' text, nor any mention by the man of returning --anywhere in text, anywhere!. In fact, quite the opposite, if one reads the text correctly regarding the Teacher.
However, as I have recently spoken to a few --old and young: all have a 'sense' of something quite dramatic on the very near horizon. Could it be the beginning of eternal civilization as we don't know it and the end of civilization as we know it. Yes. Perhaps there is going to be such a great outpouring of True Faith, that those who do believe the Work will immediately respond and become what they were created to be? One can only hope...
James.
Alternatively, this sense of something dramatic may be because we are continually bombarded by talk about 2012, rapture and end times.
No doubt about that. The masses have been force fed this false doctrine like French Ducks, funnel to fois gras...
Too bad it doesn't fall on a weekday. That Left Behind movie had people disappear and the clothes they were wearing were left behind where they'd been sitting.
It would be so funny to just lay a set of clothes on your chair at work and disappear for the day. I can't imagine the confusion the fundamentalist I work with would feel thinking I'd been'raptured' and he'd been left behind.
that is now too damn tempting! damn thats funny!
I love this idea. Let's get a conspiracy together and get a whole bunch of people to do this simultaneously. We'll see how many people think they got "left behind."
The boy who cried wolf - They've announced it so many times that the day that Jesus returns nobody is going to believe him. That is, if he hasn't come already.
If Satan were to establish a false religion ... that is exactly what he would want to happen.
If Satan were to extablish a false religion I think that he want it to create division through out the world and fight amongst itself.
Everyone could make their own rules according to how we all want to interpret those rules.
A lie would apear to be the truth and the truth would apear to be blasphemy.
That is what I would do if I wanted to establish a false religion.
Cry the wolf is coming at least once a week, especialy if it never does cause it already did.
Jerami, I just came from trying to teach 32 very rowdy 5th graders how to play the recorder. I'm sure there is logic in what you wrote, but I don't have the brains to process it right now. Please explain.
OOH 32 5th graders
Well I guess I was saying that everything everything that the church says is going to happen when this false religion (which prophesy talks about), is established, everything that it is said to do; has already been done. Long long ago.
Long Long ago ? They say that this can not be so, cause we are still here.
Well maybe they got the timeline wrong.
I do not know actually where you got the date and what made such a one to say so but we better watch more within the world for security reasons. Yet, some people are not afraid to face jugdement. It seems people think the sky will open someday and Jesus will descend. Maybe Moses, Buddha etc will come with him.
How do you know that you are not going to party . forever .
Well I'm pretty sure I'm not on the Almighty's A-list, so if I'm going to party forever, it will be in the hot place. I wonder, do they serve icy fruit flavored drinks with little umbrellas?
could someone post a link on the subject,... i could use a good laugh,... thowing my anual spring blow out at my place that night,... if i gota go out it'll be with a bang!
Hello Daaaaaave. (there's a reference in there)
What have you been smoking man ?
I mean we all know we're doomed. That is maybe why we still behave like cave men.
But if you know when, I'll be coming to you to have that information. And I'll have some kind of SEAL boys with me.
Spit it out man. Don't be just a teaser.
Judgement day 21 May 2011
Nobody knows when the judgement day will will take place:
[7:188] They ask thee respecting the Hour: ‘When will it come to pass?’ Say, ‘The knowledge thereof is only with my Lord. None can manifest it at its time but He. It lies heavy on the heavens and the earth. It shall not come upon you but of a sudden.’ They ask thee as if thou wert well acquainted therewith. Say, ‘The knowledge thereof is only with Allah; but most men do not know.’
http://www.alislam.org/quran/search2/sh … ;verse=187
That's probably the date that Panda Update part 3 get's released.

Who are you addressing with this post, or are you just cutting and pasting to flog your narrow religious view?
Islam is like all religions, it makes aholes like Bin Laden in to heros and has "The only truth" Any idea what the odds of that being right are?
Man; why become angry? When one becomes angry one always is short of a rational reason.
What a senseless ploy this is.
Why do you assume I am angry?
Is it because I refute what you bang on about all day and night?
Well I can assure you that he going to expect a fight when he comes or he will join the battle in middle east, Libya etc. I till think that date has other meaning. Although I read a debate of a child that was born in the samba nation with inscription "Jesus is coming soon" search in on google. I have not done with my own work so it not yet time. though he is welcome.
well, I haven't been to the religion forum for a while. I wondered if there was a thread about this. I didn't know what the buzz is about this one, so I googled it and saw a video with the guy talking about the world's worst earthquake that will make all the graves open from the last 13,000 years and there will be dead corpses everywhere, and about 200 million saved people (who were in the graves) will be taken up, and those living who are left behind will see them go. Then millions of people will die daily for the next 153 days until the end of the universe on 21 Oct. 2011, when it is destroyed by fire.
do people really believe this? :
at least it's on a Saturday.
It's not gonna happen. The guy who predicted it only took some numbers from the bible and multiplied them to get another number, which somehow implies 21st of May 2011 is the end of the world.
Nope, I'm sure he could take other numbers from the bible and multiply them to get other dates for the end of the world.
It's not going to happen. If there is a god, he would not wantonly wipe out his children and pick and choose who is good enough to be saved. Why on earth would he do that? Sounds more like Satan to me!
We are here to experience both good and bad, yin and yang, for without one there is no other. This is a relative universe and it just wouldn't work without the 2 conflicting forces.
Life will continue as it always has. The end will come, but not this month!
I heard just the other day on the radio that some people have actually quit their jobs, sold their homes, and others have spent all their money and are living as if there will be no tomorrow because they seriously believe they are going to be raptured up to heaven on May 21st. I only wish I could be a fly on all the bedroom walls when the reality wake up call hits them square in the face on the morning of May 22nd.
I wonder what they will do as the clock say 12:01, 22 May 2011 and they have nowhere to go..
it's amazing to me that people truly live this way.
I know of one man who says he'll quit smoking weed if the world doesn't end on 21 Dec 2012.

What's your point Paarsurrey? You agree, don't you? I'm not religious, but from where I'm standing there is no evidence to support those claims. Only the word of a single man who has been wrong on a few occasions.
It's better to live as though today is our last day on earth anyway. Why do we need to be told the world is going to end for us to start making changes and being happy.
On the 21st which is a Friday, I'm going to party and celebrate the fact that they were wrong.
"and others have spent all their money and are living as if there will be no tomorrow"
Should give it to me. Is anybody selling tickets for this rapture event? Would be the greatest show on earth.
I read on gather that the man, camping, who said is an old man. Well I have plans and things to do for the next months and years moreover I am yet to get married, if I shall, so you see why the end just have to wait. It has to wait because I have missions to do for humanity.

Is there going to be a Rapture?No, there's not. The "Rapture" refers to a passage in First Thessalonians, chapter 4, which talks about Christians being "caught up" in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Many Christians believe, and the "Left Behind" books promote,...
