Indeed, on May 21 Christ did come spiritually to put all of the unsaved throughout the world into judgment. But that universal judgment will not be physically seen until the last day of the five month judgment period, on October 21, 2011.
We have also learned that God is still teaching that God has no pleasure in the death of the wicked and will not punish the wicked beyond what is called for in Deuteronomy 25. That is, there is a distinct limit to God’s wrath.
Thus we can be sure that the whole world, with the exception of those who are presently saved (the elect), are under the judgment of God, and will be annihilated together with the whole physical world on October 21, 2011, on the last day of the present five months period. On that day the true believers (the elect) will be raptured.
.Not necessarily. He makes a lot of money by spouting looniness. The key is sincerity. Once you can fake that, the rest is easy.
.So far, no new changes to their web site. Their May 21 explanation still notes:
As long as there are copies of this still floating around, it will be hard for them to backtrack to another spiritual explanation, since they are pretty clear Oct 21 will be a physical event.
http://www.familyradio.com/x/whathappened.htmlThese two words, “earthquake” and “rapture,” have been extremely important in our teaching of Judgment Day – May 21. A critical understanding of these two words is the only change required to know why the unsaved are now living in a world that has not been horribly destroyed, and the elect have not been caught up to be with God.
We always look at the word “earthquake” to mean the earth, or ground, is quaking or shaking violently. However, in the Bible the word “earth” can include people as well as ground.
In Genesis 2:7 we read:
“And Jehovah God formed man of the dust of the ground…” Thus the word “earthquake” can also be understood to teach that mankind shakes.
Therefore we have learned from our experience of last May 21 what actually happened. All of mankind was shaken with fear. Indeed the earth (or mankind) did quake in a way it had never before been shaken. God had come spiritually to bring judgment upon the whole world.
Of course we're on the "lucky" earth. If we'd been on the "unlucky" one, we wouldn't be here to report it!
Oh, crap, I forgot about it.
Did I miss anything? What episode are we on now?
And I'm still posting here.
Who knew this was heaven.
The article 'What happened on May 21?' on family radio does really come across as a parody.

The link still works btw, but has been removed from their main page.
Now, there is a recording of Camping talking about the October event:

Listening to it, I am really not sure what he's claiming (it's about 5 minutes long). There is no direct acknowledgment of error, or re-explaining of the event like he did with the May 21 event ("spiritual judgment"). Best I can make out, he seems to be saying don't worry, be happy.
