Is The End Of The World Coming On June 12th?

An elusive group just outside of Abilene, Texas is claiming the end of the world is coming in less than a week.

The House of Yahweh recently gave ABC reporter Brian Ross access to their west Texas compound. Yahweh leader Yisrayl Hawkins says a nuclear holocaust will come June 12th and only members of his group will be saved.

All group members change their last names to Hawkins and live in the compound.

Local authorities claim the group is dangerous and practices polygamy. Shane Dee, the local district attorney, says there's no way to describe the group except as a religious cult. Yisrael Hawkins disagrees. "I don't control their mind in a witch-like fashion that the world is speaking of, to where I have some sort of power over them. I merely teach the laws to them."

Hawkins has predicted a doomsday twice before. He's also accused of having two dozen wives, and is facing bigamy charges.

I wonder how many times someone thought about starting a third world war over Iran in recent years? We might be surprised to know.

Apparently the Mayan prophecy says that December 21, 2012 is not the end of the world but rather the dawning of a new age - the age of the sun:

quote:
The Mayans prophesied that from 1999 we have 13 years to realize the changes in our conscious attitude to stray from the path of self-destruction and instead move onto a path that opens our consciousness to integrate us with all that exists.

Canada needs to respect its Kyoto obligations to the rest of the world.

So are we just illusions now pretending to exist in a world that ended 24 hours ago?

Well, I guess the Hawkins, are having some sort of cognative dissonance today, after the world did not end yesterday. Hope they decide to move forward.

Excellent link on the Mayan's calendar and predictions, fidel, thank you!

What is up with everyone and the Mayan calenders? Every civilization says the "world is going to end" sooner or later. What makes everyone so sure the Mayans are going to be correct?

Just another end of days person, like the one the OP is about.

quote:
This book is primarily directed to the people of the three major religions of the world (Islam, Judaism and Christianity), whose roots are in the God of Abraham. Ronald Weinland has been sent to all three.

Anyhow, of note he predictes the end around 2012 too, hmmm, did he read the Mayan calendar?

And in respect to why people believe the Mayan calendar, did you not read the link? It has never yet been wrong.

Well here yah go..

http://www.the-end.com/Download_Free_Book.asp

When this book is published at the end of summer of 2006, (with distribution in full swing in the fall), there will be a
maximum time of two years remaining before the world will be plunged into the worst time of all human history.
By the fall of 2008, the United States will have collapsed as a world power, or it will have begun its collapse and no longer exist as an independent nation within six months after that time.
There is a marginal, six-month window of time that God has not yet revealed concerning this specific moment of time. This will be revealed some time soon after the distribution of this book
begins.

That's just it, Mayans did not predict 12/21/2012 will be the end of the world, even though their calandar ends on that date. But they did suggest something else would happen in the 13 years after 1999, a time for people to reflect on what we're doing and what our collective purpose is leading toward what will be the dawning of a new age, world without end. Amen

Those people from Abilene seem to have been watching Southland Tales which begins with a nuclear explosion over Abilene Texas.

Quick, spread the word... every televangalist throughout the world will be gathering on the solistice atop an active volcano in southern Chile. http://tinyurl.com/59o2gs

They will prove their divine power (and TV creds) by making the mountain quiet and stopping the eruption.

Get on Board! All tickets are one way, but there is still lots of room! (Non-believers, those of other faiths, Marxists and dog lovers, need not apply).
