Harold Camping, the Christian minister known for his failed judgment day prophecies, has passed away at the age of 92, according to an emailed statement from his Family Radio Network to supporters of the ministry.
The statement from Family Radio Network reads:
Harold Camping - Home with the Lord!
"Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints."
Psalm 116:15Yesterday, Sunday, December 15th, at around 5:30 p.m., Harold Camping passed on to glory and is now rejoicing with his beloved Savior!
On Saturday, November 30th, Mr. Camping sustained a fall in his home, and he was not able to recover from his injuries. He passed away peacefully in his home, with his family at his side. We know that each of us remain in God's hand, and God is the One who knows our appointed time to leave our earthly body behind.
We are so grateful to God for Brother Camping's dedication to Family Radio and for his lifetime of service to God. We are thankful to know that Family Radio is God's ministry, and will continue to be in God's care and keeping.
Please remember the Camping family in your prayers, in particular, Mrs. Camping, Mr. Camping's wife of over seventy-one years. May God sustain her in her loss.
"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away."
Revelation 21:4
