Israel becoming a nation in our generation
Increased natural disasters
Wars and rumors of wars
Yes. Read this interesting link below on the fig tree prophecy that Jesus spoke of in Matthew. It's an eye opener.
Time is short. This is why it is SO important for every born again believer on Y!A to share at every opportunity....
1 Corinthians 9:22, "To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some."

Having been well schooled in the Bible and then watching the world's events of the last 35 years I still must say no, I do not think the recent events signify the end of the world. I think the world is changing drastically right now but not ending. An end means it will exist no more.

A sense of history is a handicap to apolalypse fanatics: how can you anounce with a straight face that the end of the world is nigh if you remember that people have been saying the same thing for centuries, and that they have always been wrong?
In the late 12th century mystic Joachim of Fiore found a `concealed message`in the Book of Revelation which proved that the third age - the culmination of history - would start sometime between AD 1200 and 1260. In November 1260, as the final deadline approached, thousands of his desperate disciples began scourging themselves violently and continuously with iron spikes, having been assured that this would precipitate the final catastrophe and usher in an era of eternal peace and idleness. God was unmoved by this orgy of self flagellation: life went on and they were left to lick their wounds.
The wild baroque language of Revelation has always drawn the gaze of those who look towards doomsday.

The events that have happened in my adult life have made me believe that we are living in the end times. We have kicked God out of our Government and are working on kicking him out of everyday life. They are even telling TV personalities to stop saying Christmas and instead say holiday season. Their have been over 45 million babies killed by abortion, we have had senseless war after senseless war. I can not imagine God putting up with today's society much longer. No, I do not claim to know a date or time. It just seems like we are becoming a secular society more and more every year.

My answer is No.
Why?
Because I already was convinced we are in the end days before the events of the last couple of months.

As me being a younger Christian yes. I think this because there are many things that are in the Holy Bible that have been said by Jesus. For instance, God said there would be many wars before he returns. But please keep in mind God wants Earth to be a footstool for us to enter heaven.
God Bless You

I believe that the end times are here. This impending war between Iran and Israel may the beginning of the battle of Armageddon.
We are to look up for our redemption draws near.
Just be ready for He will come like a thief in the night.
Love in Jesus' name

Nope. They've been waiting for the silly End Days for centuries. It's nonsense. Yeah, the End Days are coming. Send me your extra money, since you won't be needing it. You frightened child.

We've been facing the End of Time for the last 2000 years.
Personally, I think it's time we face the future with hope and progress, as opposed to fear and stagnation.
