Letter: On doomsday

I refer to an article titled “Doomsday does not arrive on Saturday; few are surprised,” (May 23, p. 9)

I am very sad for those who have been following this lie that the rapture was to occur on May 21. Hopefully, they should now admit that “No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven nor the Son, but only the Father”, from the gospel of Mark, 13:32.

Every Christian, theologian, scholar and prophet from the first century until the 19th century all believed that the church would go through the great tribulation and not escape through some secret rapture that would leave the world completely paralyzed.

I pray that they now will take a moment and read through my book, Final Warning to help them to stand firm in their faith, because the hour of His judgment has come.
