In response to Chelsea Brown’s May 31 column “Camping fools his followers once again.”
Harold Camping sounds like he plagiarized Jehovah’s Witnesses.
Jehovah Witnesses are a spin-off of the second Adventist which all came from the Millerite Movement.
Yes, the “great disappointment” of Oct. 22, 1844 has never died out … it lives on in the Jehovah’s Witnesses.
The central core doctrine of the Watchtower, yes the reason the Watchtower came into existence, was to declare Jesus second coming in 1914. When the prophecy (derived from William Miller of 1842) failed they said that he came “invisibly.”
Watchtower’s reckless predictions of the second coming of Christ harden skeptics in their unbelief and provide new fodder for cynics to mock the Christian faith. Danny Haszard
