Millions of sincere people.
How on earth do you edit and not show you edited? (adding sincere)

Because I was going say, not so much as the number but of what mindset, are they more liberal (or so open minded) that they fall into this sort of thing?

We can all be sincerely wrong.

Immediately after I posted it, I edited it. I don’t know why it didn’t show. I don’t have any control over it.

They’re ignorant and gullible.

We can all be sincerely wrong.

The Lord has not spoken this prophesy to Joshua. The Lord has not spoken this prophesy to the man in India. The Lord has not spoken this prophecy to anyone. There are no confirming signs or dreams from the Lord for this prophesy, though thousands of people are claiming that they are.

These people are deceived and deceiving.

You probably did it so fast it doesnt register

This fits better than the first answer

And this one fits much better then the second answer, you get better as you go along.

I would be curious as to how many stuck around after the fact, and continue to follow the person, that would blow my mind even more.

An interesting article on the subject of confirmation bias.


You know, I did not read it because I need to click on a link, but I did a search the same and its definition reads

Confirmation bias is when people pay more attention to information that supports what they already believe, while ignoring or dismissing information that contradicts their beliefs.

Which (to me) confirms that the same (which might exist in our hearts) be drawn out by the use of what is false (in this case a false prophet) by which someone can be proved, for example...

Deut 13:3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

In the above, false prophets can be used by Him to prove us (in our own departure from him, or our cleaving unto him). Tools to see whether you love the LORD your God, even as Jesus shows so much below

John 14:24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.

And so if he tells us (for instance)

Mark 13:32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

Anyone claiming otherwise should be considred a false prophet. Who is useful in proving you. To know whether you love the LORD your God because he that love me NOT (Jesus said) keepeth NOT his sayings, and the very word Jesus had spoken was not his but the Father's.

Scratch the 6th.


If you don’t believe her she thinks you are of the devil.

She wants to encourage those who are wavering on the date.

When the 7th comes and goes and no one has been raptured, what would you say to try to encourage her?

“Everything is better with music.” - My 8th grade Music Appreciation teacher


I’m A Billion Percent Sure (Official Lyric Video)

Does it inspire you? Does it instill confidence?

What effect will it have on Christians and non-Christians when the prophesied October 6 / 7 2025 rapture doesn’t happen?

The 7th is looking like a bust. So maybe it’s really October 7 / 8?


Some people have to learn the lesson on date setting the hard way. Some people never learn the lesson on date setting at all.

“New information.”


”Yes, Jesus is on his way. He is still coming, and Joshua is still right. Please spread this message. Because there’s going to be a lot of disappointed people I believe, either today or tomorrow.”

What will you do to try and help them while you’re on vacation? What will you do to try and help them when you return from vacation?

“To the people who are opposing my message, who look at me and think I am just one more, and even pull up scriptures, you know, to oppose what I’m saying. This is what I have to say to you. On that day of the 23rd, who is God going to back up? You or me? Who’s words are going to fall to the ground? Mine or yours?”

(Joshua Mhlakela)

God did not back him up. His words fell to the ground.

What’s Joshua’s next move?

What's really going on here? Are people that desperate to see Christ? (Admirable.) Or desperate to escape the troubles of this world? (Escapism is understandable, but not so admirable.) Does Joshua really think he's a prophet, does he NEED to think he's a prophet, or does he just get off on the ego trip of knowing that some people are hanging on his every word?
