Doomsday October 7 2015 Prediction: World to End Soon, Christian Group Declares

Today is most likely everyone's last day on Earth, a Christian organization warned.

The online group, eBible Fellowship, which has headquarters near Philadelphia, PA, has recalculated when the end of the world will happen based from the previous prediction of May 21, 2011. Despite having the wrong date last time, the group is confident that October 7 is the right one.

"According to what the Bible is presenting it does appear that 7 October will be the day that God has spoken of: in which, the world will pass away," said Chris McCann, the leader and founder of the fellowship. "It'll be gone forever. Annihilated."

McCann added that based on his own interpretation of the bible, the world will end "with fire."

"God destroyed the first Earth with water, by a flood, in the days of Noah. And he says he'll not do that again, not by water. But he does say in 2nd Peter 3 that he'll destroy it by fire," McCann said.

McCann also explained why the world did not end on May 21, 2011, the date that Harold Camping, a former Christian radio host who is now deceased, predicted. McCann argued that on that day, which was declared to be "judgment day," God was finishing up with his selection of the Christians/churchgoers that he would be saving.

From May 21 to October 7, 2015, God has been carefully selecting the nonbelievers that he will save from the apocalypse.

"There's a strong likelihood that this will happen," McCann stressed.

The October 7 date is a little bit more than a week after the blood moon was seen on September 27. A blood moon occurs when a lunar eclipse combines with a super moon. Many theories claimed that the blood moon was a sign of the beginning of the apocalypse.

There have been a lot of theories about the end of the world. The most popular scientific one claims that the sun will eat up the Earth in roughly 7.6 billion years.
