Death of the Church (Harold Camping's Heresy Refuted)
Harold Camping is in error for the following reasons:
1. Camping's Reasons for God's Completion of the Church Age are simply not true and accurate.
2. Camping has No Accountability
3. Camping has added to Scripture
4. Camping has No Proof Text
5. Camping is Dividing God's People from each other
6. Camping is a Heretic for saying that “Faith” is a “Work.” (Faith and works are distinguished in Paul's epistles; Salvation comes to us by faith)
7. Camping believes that although Churches have historically taught a false Gospel (preaching Faith or Believe on Christ) God, despite this false teaching or “high place,” has saved people through this false teaching.
8. If there is no Church, there is no Biblical Polity and no Guidelines for organized Leadership roles. (Sheep need Shepherds.(1 Peter 5; Acts 20); Fellowships need Structure. The local church structure is the only structure given in Scripture.)
9. Camping's Real Enemy/Target of Attack is Pastors (elders).
10. Camping has several Marks of a Cult.
11. The Bible Teaches that God is not Finished with the Church (as an institution) a. We are commanded to not forsake the assembling of ourselves together (especially as the day of the end approaches). Hebrews 10:24-25 b. The Lord's Supper (which is a “church” ordinance – I Cor. 11:18, 22) is to be practiced until the day the Lord Jesus returns -1 Corinthians 11:26 c. The Biblical Local church is the Pillar and Ground of the Truth (God's plan is to use Biblical churches to uphold truth till Christ returns)- 1 Tim. 3:15
