As for the date-setting numerology clowns, no serious Christian would give that balderdash the time of day. It is thoroughly established that the date of the second coming cannot be predicted in advance. Matthew 24 is perhaps the most famous passage for this, but there are numerous others. I am not aware of any major denomination that teaches the contrary.

So, technically, he might have been simply talking about people hallucinating about him. In which case it was a pretty accurate prophecy.

I was working in a motor vehicle finance company at the time. The local members all bought fancy and expensive new cars and had them sign-written with warnings about the coming end. They borrowed big for other luxury items too. When the end didn't come they were saddled with enormous debts they hadn't expected to repay. And now couldn't repay.
