The man whose biblical doomsday claim has some nervously eyeing Sept. 23

The Washington Post

David Meade, the self-described “specialist in research and investigations,” has earned a fair amount of publicity online for predicting that catastrophic events will soon befall Earth.

Among his claims: On Saturday, Sept. 23, 2017, a constellation — a sign prophesied in the Book of Revelation — will reveal itself in the skies over Jerusalem, signaling the beginning of the end of the world as we know it. Meade believes that by the end of October, the world may enter what’s called a seven-year tribulation period, a fairly widespread evangelical belief that for seven years, catastrophic events will befall Earth.

He also claims that a planet called Nibiru, which has been debunked by NASA as a hoax, is headed toward Earth. When it passes Earth later this year, Meade claims, catastrophe in the form of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tidal waves and others will ensue.

All of this is “the story of the century,” Meade said on his website, but he says it’s distorted and misrepresented by the mainstream media. He said some publications have exaggerated his words and falsely reported that he believes the world will end this weekend.

So who is David Meade?

He doesn’t say much about himself, at least not any specific, verifiable information

When asked where he lives, he said only that he’s in “the heart of a major disaster zone” after Hurricane Irma. When asked where he went to college, he said only that he studied astronomy at a university in Kentucky and declined to say which campus, citing safety concerns.

His website says he worked in forensic investigations and spent the past 10 years “writing special reports for management” for Fortune 1000 companies, but he ignored questions about which companies those were or what he currently does for a living.

A short biography on a website called Planet X News says he studied “astronomy, among other subjects” at the University of Louisville. (The university said it cannot verify whether a person was a student there.) The website also says Meade enjoys “relating science and the Bible,” and he believes that Nibiru, which he also calls Planet X, is a “perfect marriage of the two.”

“I was raised Catholic and all Catholics believe the Bible,” Meade wrote on his website.

He’s also critical of the young generation, which he said has been “dumbed down by TV, commercials, sports and so forth.”

“What amazes me is that this new generation does not engage in critical thinking … They don’t read. They don’t understand anything,” he wrote. “Very sad, really.”

Christians are not supposed to believe in astrology.

That's what the methodist church taught me, that astrology was da debil, and yet, there it is in Rev. 12. Maybe it was their way of keeping the big secret.

Sooooo science (astrology) once again reaffirms the Word of God this weekend.

Come what may, the Lord lives, He loves us and He is eventually coming back to straighten out this fallen world and to judge the living and the dead.

FWIW Martin Luther said that The Rev. should not have been included in the Bible.

So on 9/23 Frankie calls the College of Cardinals together and says, "I've got some good news and some bad news.

"First, the good news" Jesus Christ has returned to Earth and I just spoke with Him on the phone."

(cheers from the cardinals.)

"Now for the bad news: He was calling from Salt Lake City.

Lots of good info to be gleened from that book if you just use a little science to decipher it. They knew what they were doing by adding Rev.

As I recall, Brother Martin called The Rev. "the Judas Iscariot of the New Testament".
