May 21, 2011 - The End of the World???
If you thought you had less than three perfectly healthy months to live, what would you do? Would you travel? Spend time with loved ones? Appreciate the joy life has given you?
Or would you ditch your kids and grandkids, join strangers in a caravan of RVs and travel the country warning people about the end of the world?
If you're Sheila Jonas, that's exactly what you'd do.
"This is so serious, I can't believe I'm here," says Jonas, who's been on the road since fall. Like her cohorts, she's "in it 'til the end," which she believes is coming in May.
She won't talk about her past because, "There is no other story. ... We are to warn the people. Nothing else matters."
Such faith and concern drove her and nine others, all loyal listeners of the Christian broadcasting ministry Family Radio, to join the radio station's first "Project Caravan" team.
They walked away from work, families and communities in places as far-flung as California, Kansas, Utah and New Jersey. Among them are an electrician, a TV satellite dish installer, a former chef, an international IT consultant and a man who had worked with the developmentally disabled.

May 21 is judgement day! Not the end, but when there will be an earthquake and CHRIST returns and the believers will be raptured. October 21 is the end. There will be 5 months 153 days of judgement.

maybe may 21 will be a glorious day but it isnt going to happen because a human predicted it if the lord my god comes to get me on that day im ready. i dont understand why this group of people feel the need to warn others. we who believe in him will rejoice in the coming of our lord we are prepared i pray for my family and for the world but i am not afraid i pray that this group of people accept jesus as their savoir and only god knows when he will return trust wht the bible says NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT THAT DAY OR HOUR NOT EVEN THE ANGLES IN HEAVEN NOR THE SON BUT ONLY THE FATHER. MOST OF US KNOW WHERE TO FIND THAT IN THE BIBLE YOU DONT NEED A CALCULATOR OR A MATH FORMULA OPEN THE BOOK TO MATTHEW24:36 AND THERE IT IS .PRAY FOR EVERYONE

Ok so if the end of the world is in october, does that mean that ive wasted all this time in school? Im about to be a Junior in high school, and well i want to graduate, i want to get married and have a family. I dont want to waste my life in school or what i have left. I want to grow old not just die at 16. This isnt fair if its real. Why does it have to be like this its not right, i dont wanna leave the world yet. Why does it have to be now, is there proof, what about what i want to do. I want to go to college, and do all this stuff. Well id the world is going to end the schools arent gonna end school so we can enjoy it, so this is just horrible. I dont want the world to end, why does it. Its ot right i wanna live, yea im saved in all but i dont want the world to end, i wanna have a life, now ill never get to do all i want to.

First of all,there have been so many predictions in the past & none of them came true.I believe only our lord&saviour would know when &if he is coming back to earth to judge us.Personally,I believe in a kind & merciful god.Yes,as human beings,we are greatly flawed,but,since we were created by god-he already knows this.I choose to believe god forgives our mistakes & loves us as we are.Personally,I believe there is a higher being,because,I can't believe the universe just happened.I believe we were created-&-if that's true-the higher being that created us-would not just destroy us,but,have mercy on us.I do not impose my beliefs on anyone-(my personal beliefs 4 personal reasons is that god will forgive us & will not destroy us on may21st. or in october) May god bless humanity & each & everyone of you.Thank you 4 giving me a forum to post my comments. "stay safe" On may 22nd.-"the day after" may we all be happy,healthy,& thankful.

In the things I read it wasn't so much the end of the world as "The Rapture" which if you you are "left behind" so to speak, it's another chance to do it right. Harder than before but still another chance which I believe Our Lord is all about. Take a deep breath and hang on to God's love and forgiveness. He sent his son for our benefit. Don't turn backs on the gift of Grace.

And now,.. Let's see if that prediction is true....for me, I really don't believe this prediction... Only God knows.. Only God has a privilege to say that this day is the end of the world.. and the question is, Are you the God of Heaven??? we all humans don't know if when or how the world will be ended.. Let us put our trust to the Lord and pray that he himself will give the signs and warnings so that we can be ready... And before that we will give thanks to him that he gave us the happy lifestyle in this kind of place that we have... Even though we have so many problems, but that's normal, right? So for now, all we have to do is to serve the Lord, because we all know that the end of the world is near... So people, Let's pray together that all of us will be in heaven someday... thank you and live a life with the Lord.. Amen..

Humans simply cannot predict the exact time and date of the end of the world. That is up to God and God alone. Don't try to play the role of God. Who is anyone as a mere human to dare try and assign a date and time to something that is solely the responsibility and privilege of God? Shame on them.
