Do you think we're in the end times? If so, why?

Question

Quote Bible scriptures to prove your thoughts.

Answer 1

Does Matthew 24, I Timothy 3 hit hard when you read it.
Daniel mentions a knowledge increase. We rode horses in 1900. Now we have automobiles, jets, and space shuttles.
Computers come and go so quick, some are obsolete by the time they hit the stores.
Isaiah 66 talks of a nation coming together in one day. Israel in 1948.
Jesus talked about Jerusalem coming into Jewish control in the last generation. This was 1967.
There's more but I wish I had the time to go over this.

Answer 2

The last 7 years on earth before Jesus comes back to restore life as it was before the curse of the Garden of Eden is called the Tribulation. (Daniel 9: 24-27)

We are not in the Tribulation, because before it can start certian things must take place:
1. The Rapture -
-Christ will come in the air for His saints (1 Thess. 4:16-17, John 14: 1-3)
-This must happen first because its purpose is to resuce the Saints from the outpouring of God's wrath in the Tribulation. (Rom. 5:9, 1 Thess. 1:9-10, 5:9)
2. Fear of nuclear war, unstable world ecomonies, and a cashless society - to ease the way for the Antichrist to gain world power

The Antichrist will not be revealed until the Spirit has left (2 Thess. 2:7-8)

For the Tribulation to begin the prophecy of Daniel 9:27 and Isaish 28:18 must take place. (the signing of the 7 year covenant) For this prophecy to be fulfilled atleast 4 things must take place.
1. Israel must be a nation. 1948
2. There must be an United Europe, (Revived Roman Empire) European Union January 1, 1993
3. Jerusalem and the Temple should be debated subjects.
4. Ongoing but troubled peace process in the Middle-East.

Ezekial 37:1-14 states there will be a mass return of the Jews to Israel. In 1990, there were 50,000 Jews in Israel. Eight years later there were 6 million and the number is constantly growing.

More information on End time Prophecy is in the books of Daniel, 1 & 2 Thessonlians, and Revelation.

Jesus will only rapture ("caught up") His saints. Those who believe He died to save them. If you don't believe in God then He will not rescue you from His wrath. (1 Thess. 4:16-17)
Examples of His wrath from the Tribulation:
- A famine - only 1/8th of the world's food population will survive. (Rev. 6:5-6)
- The Greatest Earthquake in history - every island and mountian will be moved (Rev. 6:12 - 14)
- 1/3rd of heavy vegetation will be destroyed by hail and fire (Rev. 8:6-7)
- 1/3rd of the seas destroyed (Rev. 8:8-9)
- 1/3rd of the fresh water destroyed (Rev. 8:10-11)
- 1/3rd of the light darkened (Rev. 8:12-13)
These are not the worst things, read Revelation.

Answer 3

Absolutely! The signs are all in here. If you have studied revelation, you would know that we are in the end times. A great book to read is Jerusalem Countdown by John Hagee
