Judgment Day - May 21, 2011?

We certainly know that we could see Christ at any time. Whether he comes to us or we go to him. None of us have any guarantee for even one more minute... but is May 21st really the end? 


I've been thinking about the scriptures in relationship to current events such as our weather and the number and intensity of earth quakes and floods and even the increasing number of vegetarians and people who are living together rather than getting married and I wonder what it all means. I've also been thinking about the number of people attending church and people's consciences and how sometimes it seems that God is so far away.


Listening to the audio on the site that proclaims May 21st as the day of the rapture can really get you to thinking. Whether the 21st is the day or not, we do know the day is coming and we should be ready whenever it is. You can check out their sites HERE,

Please take the opportunity to either reacquaint yourself or introduce yourself to the bible. Ask for His guidance as you read and learn for yourself what you believe. This is especially a good time to do that with Good Friday and Easter Sunday being this week.


UPDATE: It seems he miscalculated and the new date is October 21, 2011.

CONTROVERSY

I am by no means a political writer and I certainly don't like to discuss politics, but sometimes you just have to stop and pay attention.

Of all the places to build, why would they even consider that location?

Should the will of the people be overturned by a judge? Should we waste taxpayer's money and people's time to go to the polls and vote and it mean nothing because a single judge has the power to over rule that vote? It happened. There seems to be much more at stake here than just same sex marriage.
