From WKRN.com:
The estimated 40 billboards were put up by Family Radio, a national Christian radio group.
A spokesperson for the radio station said they are very confident that their prediction is right.
"This date was developed from only Bible scriptures from the King James Bible and a lot of it are parts that people tend to overlook," Allison Warden told News 2.
From the website of Family Radio who sponsor the billboards:
This web site serves as an introduction and portal to four faithful ministries which are teaching that WE CAN KNOW from the Bible alone that the date of the rapture of believers will take place on May 21, 2011 and that God will destroy this world on October 21, 2011.
What about the children? Do these groups truly frighten their children this way. And that's not to speak of other people's children! And gullible adults!
Well, my readers, you can't say I didn't warn you - you know - just in case....
PS: Be careful when you drive on May 21, 2011. Perhaps those who are confident that they will be raptured will be thoughtful enough of the rest of us to stay off the roads. I hope so.
Thanks to Ann V. for directing me to the story.
UPDATE: Go to Ship of Fools. Jesus is furious about the leak. Read it all. There will be consequences.
Thanks to Ann for the link.
