TANSY: So you think the Indian is onto something Loquat...

TANSY:

So you think the Indian is onto something Loquat... that's interesting. 

Only to the extent that he links the papacy to the false religious system described in Rev. 13, which I believe has real merit. All the Reformers, almost to a man, did the same - except that they didn't identify a specific pope with the false prophet. Neither did they appeal to special revelations or visions to back up their interpretations. That would be akin to the same kind of error that attempts to identify the antichrist with, say, Prince Harry or Barrack Obama. And yes, both have been presented as serious candidates for that role by like-minded 'prophets' without so much as a hint of an incipient smile that is about to break forth into a full-blown apoplectic fit of laughter.

No, I'm afraid it's yet another form of sensationalism run riot. If you treat apocalyptic like an Old Moore's Almanac, or claim personal revelations about its correct inter-pretation, you are onto a hiding to nothing. He chooses to hawk his wares predominantly in the US for very good reasons, and they have more to do with financial considerations than any genuine spiritual insights. Add to that the fact that all his visions are in the context of a millennarian eschatology that puts national Israel front & centre of God's plans for the future, and the suspicions that he is a false prophet become practically bankable.

RAINY:

This Prophet has been very accurate in the past.

With the greatest of respect Rainy, I beg to differ. Even a cursory search of the 'interweb' throws up compelling evidence that this guy has a rap sheet of failed prophecies that is longer than my two arms put together. He has been spectacularly wrong about 2010, 2011, 2012:

........and, most recently, 2017:

.......though to be entirely fair, one could conceivably argue that if God pulled out the proverbial, it is just possible that all his predictions for 2017 could just about be squeezed into its last few days. But (slightly more) seriously, I don't think I'll be losing too much sleep over his revelations. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for all those who posted comments below the last link. Most of them evince the kind of unedifying mass hysteria that must leave them quite drained by the time 2017 finally draws to a close, and proves yet again that they have all been duped by yet another false prophet (remember him?). Will they be any the wiser on 1st Jan 2018? I somehow doubt it. Or put another way, will they heck.

But fear not, neither fret. Fresh predictions, visions and revelations are already being prepared for their delight, delectation, consumption and entertainment right up to and including 2025 (well, it's a sort of nice, semi-round figure, innit?), and even 2067 has entered into the frame according to another site that I stumbled across in my travels.

By that time, I will have long since shed my mortal coil, but I'm confident that Sundar's successors will find a new generation of gullible believers who will be ready to swallow the undiluted and self-indulgent twaddle that emanates from their interminable prophecy-mongering.

So don't say I didn't warn you.

And yes, I still love you as my sister in the faith.
