No date setting

I hear these pastors who claim to have figured out ,through piecing together numbers in the Bible,that they have "figured out" the day, and sometimes even the time of the Rapture,etc.Like, from time to time one of them would proclaim," on this date ,Jesus will come for us, and then the Tribulation will occur". But, a few reasons I don't go along with this--for one, they never say God revealed it to them,they say they figured it out on their own, by crunching some numbers.So it's in THEIR reasoning that they came to this conclusion.Second, in the Bible, all the prophecies of those who prophecied came true.These people, every date they set has passed and it didn't happen.And thirdly, didn't Jesus say,"Concerning the time and the hour, no one knows, neither the angels in Heaven or the Son, but only the Father."So for these pastors to claim they DO know, isn't that overriding that statement Jesus made?He didn't say, no one knows,except those pastors who added and subtracted some numbers, and in their human wisdom figured it out.{They do this with trying to figure out who the Antichrist is, too. But everyone they said was, has died.}{I mean, died for good, not the mortal wound."And one of its heads had a mortal wound, but its wound was healed. And all the Earth followed after the beast, the name of not one who stands written in the Lambs book of life".Amen.}Now some say, by claiming to figure out by human knowledge the date of the Rapture,good comes of it, because they get people to focus on those things. But I think it can have an opposite effect,the unbelievers will see that these prediction don't come true, and they'll be like,"See!I told you those Christians don't know what they're talking about".So what's up with the "date setters?"Do you think someone claiming they figured out through human wisdom what Gods decisions are is Biblically sound? I'm not a fan of it.You??
 
Revelation 16:15
15 (“Behold, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake, keeping his garments on, that he may not go about naked and be seen exposed!”)

Matthew 24:43
43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into.

1 Thessalonians 5:2
2 For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

2 Peter 3:10
10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies[a] will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed.

According to these verses where is the question of one knowing the date, time etc......

In fact, totally opposite.
 
False teachers, false preachers are coming along to tell us that Jesus is coming in a year of two. No one really knows when Jesus shall appear, but we must be prepared for that wonderful day. Open your widow every single morning and look at the sky and see if there are any clouds around. Jesus shall come unannounced and He will come majesty and great glory to take us all home to heaven. Rejoice and be glad. Praise and honor God. He promised us and it will happen. We do not know when. The Father is the only One Who knows this.
 
We are living in the last days. Jesus predicted all these things to happen in the world. The rise of sin and evil. Rejection of God and His word. Earthquakes, famine, the rise of technology. See the fig tree, leaves are starting to come out. See the wonderful work God has for those who love Him with all their heart. A home in heaven where no one will take away from us.
