Camping Repents, Apologizes for Incorrect Predictions

After three failed attempts at predicting the end of the world, Family Radio’s Harold Camping has publicly apologized for his wrong teachings and says he was also wrong to say that people had stopped being saved after May 21, 2011. A statement from Camping on Family Radio’s website read as follows: “Why didn’t Christ return on Oct. 21? It seems embarrassing for Family Radio. But God was in charge of everything. We came to that conclusion after quite careful study of the Bible. He allowed everything to happen the way it did without correction…There’s one thing that we must remember – God is in charge of this whole business, and we are not. What God wants to tell us is His business…But we have to be very careful that we don’t dictate to God what He should do.”

Camping, 90, was described by The Christian Post as slurred and labored in his speech as he confessed his misdeeds and wrong predictions on his radio program on October 28.
