To Mr. Harold Camping...
An open letter to Mr. Harold Camping:
Dear Mr. Camping, So, Saturday the 21st is the day the world comes to an end?! I cannot wait for that day. To be honest, I have been looking forward to it daily.
But... What troubles me is that you seem to know something that the divine Son of God, our Lord Jesus Christ, did not claim to know. He said that only the Father knows the hour. But... It is okay by me if you want to make a prediction. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and I promise you now that if you are proven wrong, and we are all still around on Sunday the 22nd of May, I will not write anything against you. However....
I would like to present an offer to you. If you legitimately believe that Saturday is the end of the world, please transfer your entire net worth to Leading The Way with Dr. Michael Youssef by Friday, May 20th. Please do not worry about liquidating the $86 million in radio assets you have from Family Radio.
We will use them beginning May 22nd for our own broadcasting needs. I would offer you a tax-deductible receipt for your generous gift, but I don't suppose you will really need it. My contact details are as follows:
Leading The Way with Dr. Michael Youssef P.O. Box 20100 Atlanta, GA. 30325 Phone 1 800 337 LEAD I look forward to hearing from you, Mr. Camping. Michael Youssef Ph. D.

Paradise
Luke 23:39-43
Q) Why 3 crosses on some Church’s lawns ?
1) Everybody talking about Heaven, but everyone isn’t going there….. (Matthew 7:13)
Background (v.39)
Save Yourself & (mainly us !) (Some people just want the benefits of Christ: the blessings/ to be rich/ to be healed, but 1st. we must accept His free gift of Salvation and live for Christ)
Other Gospels say both were blaspheming Christ.
But….after hours of being on the cross w/the Lord of lords & King of kings. (Conviction, started to settle in his heart )
Finally; One of the thieves ended up saying; “ Jesus, remember me when You come into Your Kingdom
(Total repentance here) (repeated)
(look again at: v. 43)
So in this verse, (the word) Paradise Where is Jesus talking about ?
Paradise (original lan.) garden/park. (like in the garden of Eden)
Remember the parable Jesus gave, back in (Chap 16 of Luke) (Many Scholars believe this is a real story)
(Rich man & Lazarus)
a) Poor man was in Abraham’s bosom (righteous)
Paradise
b) Richman in Hades- torment (un-righteous)
(had to look up)
Now in Matthew’s gospel (27:51-53)
Saints who had fallen asleep (died) were raised & appeared to many in Jerusalem.
Guess where they came from ? Abrahams bosom !
Now after the resurrection there’s no one in Paradise or Abraham’s bosom.
Christ did NOT go to Heaven w/ the Father until after the Resurrection… (Remember that Mary tried to cling to Jesus, but what did Christ say to her ? “I haven’t ascended to My Father yet.”) On the 1st. day of the week.
Because, we know that, absent w/the body, present w/ the Lord…..amen ?
Straight to Heaven we go w/ the Lord Jesus. Where is Jesus now ? look at: (Acts 7:56)
Lastly: So when Jesus told the thief on the cross “Truly I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.” That’s where they went on Friday.
This tells us that even a sinner at the last moments f your life, after all that was done in this man’s life can still be saved by the (blood) of Christ !
But don’t wait till your on your death bed !!
Because no one knows the hour that you will breath our last breath…..
Amen ?
Praise God

Top 10 reasons why Marriages fail
Top 10 Reasons Why Marriages Fail
#10 - Not Doing the Little Things - Movies show marriages as grand loves. But, in the real world, marriages are made up of the little things - taking out the trash, picking up the kids from school. If there are frusterations over the little things, it can erode the whole marriage.
# 9 - Sweating the small stuff - As a counterpoint, if you stress out over unimportant things, you are dooming your marriage to the dumpster.
#8 - Spending too much time apart - If friends, work, or hobbies take too much time away from your marriage, the bonds can begin to erode.
#7 - Criticizing and nagging - These two things can eat away at the soul of a marriage.
#6 - Not consulting the other person about purchases - The family budget must cover the family needs. If one person makes purchases that significantly impact the overall budget without consulting the other person, there is going to be hurt and anger.
#5 - Letting yourself go - You spent a considerable amount of effort pursuing and attracting your spouse. That effort shouldn't have ended on your wedding day or soon thereafter. If you are no longer working to make yourself attractive to your spouse, you must assume that he or she will look elsewhere.
#4 - Playing the victim - Is it always his fault? Did she make you do it? If you feel like you are the victim in the relationship, it probably won't last much longer.
#3 - Not fighting fair - You are entitled to your legitimate feelings, but when disagreements occur, you must keep your arguments real and relevant. Avoid character assassination. Remain task oriented rather than accusatory. And, allow your partner to retreat with dignity.
#2 - Spilling secrets - There are things in your marriage that should only be between the two of you. When you tell your friends or family members about things that shouldn't be shared, you erode the bonds of the marriage. This is a matter of trust.
#1 - No sex - When the sex has gone out of the marriage, the relationship is in trouble. Unless you can rekindle the flame, you are probably headed to divorce court.
