The arrival of the latest “blood moon” on September 28 will bring a massive world-ending meteor strike, some minority Christian groups are claiming.



This will be the fourth blood moon - a phenomenon created when the moon passes into the earth’s shadow - since April 15 last year.

With the earth moving between the sun and the moon, the moon takes on a reddish tinge.

According to some religious groups, the timing of the eclipses is no coincidence, but a harbinger of global destruction.

The tetrad of lunar eclipses - four consecutive eclipses at six monthly intervals - is seen by some American Christian groups as an omen.

John Hagee, a US pastor, wrote a book foretelling the disaster “Four Blood Moons” which in March last year was the country's ninth best-selling paperback.

Mr Hagee and Mark Blitz have pinpointed the blood moons as heralding the end of the world and the second coming

They and others who share his view cite sections of the bible to justify their fears.

Passages include Acts 2:20: “The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord.”

NASA sought to put the world’s mind at rest, issuing a statement that its sophisticated monitoring equipment had not seen anything untoward.

"NASA knows of no asteroid or comet currently on a collision course with Earth, so the probability of a major collision is quite small," a spokesman said.

"In fact, as best as we can tell, no large object is likely to strike the Earth any time in the next several hundred years."

But if the world survives the blood moons, it may only be a very brief temporary reprieve.

According to Chris McCann and the eBible Fellowship, the world will in fact end on October 7.

Mr McCann cited the scriptures to predict the second coming. He initially said it would take place on May 21 2011, but then revised his prediction – which had been emblazoned on a bus – to October 7.

The earlier date, he said, was the deadline for seeking salvation with the latter date being the end of God’s complete 10,000 days of judgment
