Four Blood Moons - Christian pastor makes prophecy concerning future events

In his recent book Four Blood Moons, Christian pastor John Hagee makes a prediction that something big is going to happen in September of 2015. He doesn't know exactly what, but he thinks it will be huge. The logic he uses to support his prediction is this:

September 2001: two planes crash into the Twin Towers.
7 years pass.
September 2008: the DOW drops by 777.
7 years pass.
September 2015: ???

Personally, I'm mostly agnostic myself, so I try to be as skeptical with this sort of thing as I can, but it's still kinda fun to think about regardless.

    When you see someone throwing out predictions of the future with precise dates, it's time to run away, IMO. Something gets into the heads of people like this - they want to seem like a bigshot, and they imagine themselves having prophetic powers or possessing a wisdom to make connections others have apparently missed for thousands of years. This guy reminds me a lot of Hal Lindsey. Go read up on his predictions for the future - made in the 70s-90s. My favorite one is where the alien UFO (demons -shh!) lands at the white house. The sad thing is I thing guys like this have a lot of good things to say, and then they corrupt any good effect they could have by mingling it with this nonsense.

    I've read the book and it's pretty interesting & deep. The years you mention are Shmittah (sp?) years which occur every 7 years. They always begin and end in September. This September starts another Shmittah year. It will be interesting to see what nonsense unfolds during that time.

      I'm almost finished with it, and it's pretty interesting so far.

      Though one thing I didn't like was how he brought up the story of Coy Mathis at the end of Chapter 9 (page 144) in an attempt to show how America is supposedly "heading in the wrong direction." Personally, I don't see how helping a little child who was born with a rare physical condition is heading in the wrong direction at all, but I guess I should have expected ignorance like that to pop up in such a book. =/

    Just finished reading it. Most of the good stuff is at the end. Aside from some brief anti-LGBT rhetoric, it's a pretty good book with some interesting history about Israel. Whether John Hagee's predictions have any degree of truth to them, however, remains to be seen.
