Who here feels like we are living in, what the bible calls, "The last days"? Thanks.

2 Timothy 3:1-5 talks about what we would see in the last days.

As a Witness of Jehovah God's I can't ignore the obvious to living in the Last Days.
Too many of the signs that Jesus spoke about say we are. The only thing to do is to study the Bible and make sure we live our lives accordingly. Preach the Good News to all the inhabited earth.
After all, don't we all want God to have His Day and get rid of Satan's ways?

today's daily scriptures took about the Lord's Day since 1914. and yes we are living in the last days. 2 timothy 3 verse 1-5 and Matthew 24 verse 3- 14. things are getting worse by the day. they did not listen in Noah's day and they don't listen now

As a Christian obviously I do believe that Jesus will return. I believe we have been living in the last days since the Day of Pentecost which is described in the book of Acts.
I am well aware that every generation has believed they would see the return of Christ and yet we are still here. Which tends to make us look like the boy who cried wolf. . . but eventually the wolf was there and no one believed the boy.
Regardless of whether we experience the return of Christ or not in our days we should simply spend each day as if it was our last. . . as should everyone even the non religious because non of us are promised tomorrow.

Twenty years ago, a friend and I (we were both practicing Christians, btw) had a game called Spot the Rapture Signs. It was grand fun, because you could always find something.
The 'predictions' of Revelations and Daniel are very much about the politics of the times when they were written. It was social commentary on their times, using the mode of prophecy to sell their message.
Read up on the history. And from lots of sources.

I do, almost all the signs are here from Matthew 24 and 25 and Joseph Smith-Matthew. (See The Pearl of Great Price: L.D.S. Scriptures.)

There will be wars and rumours of wars. I think ,honestly we are prbably closer than we have been before. And since I read all these mocking statements on here and Jesus said that we would be treated this way it does fit with prophesy

Yes I believe it. Everything Timothy mentions, is happening right now. So why not believe it?

It's been the "last days" for 2000 years.

Honestly, I do not. I really think this is a subjective illusion. I base my conclusions on the fact that EVERY generation of older people says "This is it! Things are the worse ever! Children are disobedient, the music is crap, etc. etc. WE were never like that when WE were young." You can even find Socrates basically saying the same thing.
If every successive generation was truly all that worse, then we'd see people just a few centuries ago living in a golden age. Anybody who reads history will know that that wasn't the case at all. Just look at the Great Depression, the working industry around the time of the Industrial Revolution, the Black Death, and all these other times when people thought "the end is near". Again, I can only conclude that it's just a subjective thing.

Yes. Most of the signs are there. Watch and listen to this:
