With the way things are going, I think we could be getting close. I'm thinking somewhere in-between 2028 and 2048 for too many reasons to state here. Obviously it's totally in God's hands, I just have a feeling we're getting close!

Would love to hear y'all's thoughts!!

I wonder if people thought the same thing in 1968 -
Civil unrest and riots over racial issues and the war in Vietnam. Tet Offensive, Assassinations of MLK and RFK, An election cycle in which the sitting President. LBJ, opts out and leads to the election of Nixon. Just some of the events in which occured all amongst a flu pandemic which is now all but forgotten.

I've said for years that end times craziness will peak about 2030-2033. Why? Because that's exactly 2000 years from when Yeshau "came" and was "cut off". I think the hysteria could be bad enough to actually affect real events like the stock market. Why don't you hear anyone mentioning this date? Because it's still too far away for people to make money off scaring you about it. But they will. Remember, you heard it here first.


Will that really be THE END? Almost surely not.


Side note. Anyone who wants to talk about end times prophecy, should be required to read Hal Lindsey's "Late Great Planet Earth", to learn how NOT to predict end times events.

Another side note. The same thing will happen in 2070, for being 2000 years after the destruction of the temple. But I may not be around to see that one. So, tell your grandchildren you heard it from me first.

Yep. Or the Left Behind series.

NT Wright has a great book on the end times and what Scripture really says.

Might I also recommend his follow-up book, The 1980s: Countdown to Armageddon ...

A very brief overview ...

Quote:

As a public service I present the most hilarious of Hal Lindsey's claims for why the 1980s may, "be the last decade of history as we know it."

Mr. Lindsey personally met with a super-secret group of computer nerds whose prediction of world demise had mirrored that of Daniel, chapter 11, verses 40-45. (p. 6)

Jim Jones was a false messiah as foretold in the Bible. (p. 21)

Governments all over the world are being overthrown. (p. 23)

By the year 2000 there will not be enough food on earth to keep people alive. (p. 26)

The alignment of the planets will cause weather pattern shifts. (p. 28)

Three Rabbis in 1980 all had the same dream of a messiah coming. (p. 48)

UFOs are real and, "demons will stage a human spacecraft landing on earth." (p. 33)

Communism in the U.S.S.R. will overtake American dominance on the world stage. (p. 81)

The U.S. itself will be "taken over by communists." (p.132)

The U.S. could be "destroyed by a surprise Soviet nuclear attack." (p.132)

The U.S. could "become a dependent of the 10-nation European confederacy." (p. 132)

btw, I actually read a copy of this book in the early 1990s. Lindsey is a Scripture-spouting screwball loon and I'm astonished (and bewildered) that he still has an audience ...

As for the question posed by the OP: No. (Let me know when there's a Beast from the Sea, the Beast out of the Earth, and a Dragon running about).

We have been in the latter days since Jesus' advent IMHO. But the last days is different. I do believe the intersection of surveillance technology, AI, drones and various types of lethal technologies certainly do tend to support a last days theory. That and the rise of China and alliances of Russia, Iran and Turkey as mentioned in Ezekiel 38 and 39.

You have to admit the rise of socialism in the US was unexpected.

No

Those images are supposed to be symbolic not literal. Lots of reason to believe the different heads of "The Beast" represent European countries. Lion = Great Britain, Bear = Russia, 4 heads of leopard = Germany

Who gives a Biblical flip about Europeans?

Most lions in the world- Tanzania
Most bears- Russia (mostly the Asian part)
Most leopards- Zambia
Most red snakes- Florida. They have both corn snakes and milk snakes

That axis of evil hasn't formed yet so we're in the clear

Again it's supposed to be symbolic not literal. And where in the Bible is Europe?! Umm does the Roman Empire ring a bell? Many bible scholars think "The Beast" will be the revived Holy Roman Empire (something like the modern day European Union). Do we know if they're 100% right yet? No. Could they be? Absolutely.

All I can say is it makes a lot more sense than to expect a massive physical beast to literally arise out of the ocean, or for Tanzania & Zambia to be the End Times Beast. It would make total sense for Jesus to defeat the Roman Empire in the end.

The second beast is the False Prophet who will reinforce the first beast (the Antichrist). The False Prophet will likely be a religious leader who will help the Antichrist set up & enforce the one world religious system that is prophesied.

I can compile a list if you'd like! Honestly, I'm yet to find one that believes otherwise from the preachers I've listened to

Answer to OP: No

They haven't been revealed to us yet, but I do have some suspicions. I didn't say we're in the Final 7 Years right now, I just said we could be quickly nearing them with all the recent seemingly prophetic fulfillment's that have been happening in our world

Fyi, there haven't been any "prophetic fulfillments" lately...

Have you ever read Revelation 1:1?

Whenever modern day Israel decides to rebuild the temple themselves and start tearing down the Dome on the Rock.Then we're getting somewhere.

Until then, keep paying your credit card statements.

not until the sun expands into the orbit of earth.

No

Like Christmas to a 6 year old, it will come sooner when people cease talking about it.

After all that has happened in the last 2000 years, you think this is it?

I would be interested in knowing who your favored suspects are ... just so I can keep an eye on 'em ...

I would say keep a watchful eye on the President of France (Emmanuel Macron). Not saying he's the Antichrist, but he seems to meet a lot of the requirements. He's been dubbed "Europe's Savior" by The Economist, which featured a picture of him walking on water. He's young, came out of nowhere, charismatic, good-looking, smooth-talking, and has already been elected president of one of the most powerful nations on earth. He has connections to the Rothschilds, and has been one of the biggest proponents of globalism on the world stage.

......and his name is Emmanuel Macron.

Emmanuel = "God with us"
Macron = "a written or printed mark"

Very interesting to me since one of the names for Jesus was Emmanuel. And the whole "Mark of the Beast" thing too.

I'm a Christian Catholic, but even I am watching Vatican Secretary of State Pietro Parolin as a potential false prophet candidate very closely. His name translates to "Peter [the] Roman". Saint Malachy prophesied centuries ago that God gave him a vision that stated that "Peter the Roman" would lead the church in the End Times. Also watchful of Pope Francis since he's the current pope, but he's getting up there in age so I doubt he's got much left in the tank. But he is a globalist.

Again, I am Catholic so this isn't meant to be a shot at Catholics, but the church's deep political history with Europe is hard to ignore.

To a lesser extent, I'm also watching Trump & Kushner since they're the main architects of the Israel/Palestine "Deal of the Century" which explicitly contains a lot of requirements mentioned in the Bible about the deal that could launch the Final 7 Years. But I'm pretty convinced that the Antichrist will rise out of Europe or the Islamic World, so I doubt it's them.

Emmanuel Macron is interesting though, research him. Not saying he's the one, but there's A LOT of interesting stuff if you dig into him.

Israel becoming a nation again in 1948 was hugely prophetic.

Also read up on Trump's "Deal of the Century" that's in the works. It's very scriptural from my analysis. July 1, 2020 is the first day in which Israel can annex parts of the West Bank. The ball is rolling over there!!
