Family Radio / Family Stations, Inc.

Summary

Family Stations, Inc. (dba Family Radio) is a teachng organization primarily via radio, shortwave, satellite and Internet.

As part of its teaching by Harold Camping, it has had numerous false predictions. Two prominent rapture dates that have come and gone were May 21, 2011 and October 21, 2011.

The plain meaning of Scripture is that no one knows specific rapture or judgment dates, but the Father God (Acts 1:7; Mark 13:32-37; Matt. 24:36-44). In all cases, prophecy must meet the standard of Scripture (1 Samuel 3:19-21). It must be accurate, and it must accord with other Scripture. If prophetic claims are not accurate, it is, by Biblical definition, a false prophet. Harold Camping would do well to heed the warning in Deuteronomy 13:1-5 and humbly submit to the profitable reproof of Scripture.
