Not quite yet.
A major sign is going to be one ruling power dominating the known world (like it has in the past with Rome and Babylon) it asserts itself in the place of God as the truth and mandates worship. Those who take the mark, whatever it may be, is a sign of their approval of such action and submission to it rather than God. During these times believers suffer the most.
You cant stop it. So the only thing you can do to prepare is know the Lord, know the truth, and gird yourself against evil. And when the time comes, love nothing more than God and be willing to sacrifice everything to not compromise your faith in Jesus.

In 1968 after the six day war when Israel became a nation once again that started the biological clock ticking . The Lord says that this generation will by no means pass away without seeing the coming of our Lord. 40 years is a generation in the bible so I would have to say that even though no man knows the hour , we do know the generation.
The mark of the beast will be a system that will be set up by the Antichrist. I believe this nation will have to fall in order for this to happen, but give this world one great catastrophe and I could definitely see the nations in chaos seeking a leader.
We need to stay close to Christ and live every day as if He were to come that very minute
Good Luck and God Bless

yes these are the end of days
signs- War is a big one. And there have been some rumors of a widespread disease, the Avion Flu or whatever its called
Mark of the beast. I'm not sure....But I have read that on the pope's hat there are numbers that add up to 666. Not what i said but something I did read, an article on-line somewhere.
To prepare: pray, repent, follow the commandments, go to church, do good to others, hate sin, love your enemies, pretty much what you read in the Bible. Be Christ-like.
I always thought it was funny when people say that the acronym for Bible are Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth.

Yes.
I heard that they (Government) made it Possible, Last Year by Law, to Use our Own Troops to Patrol in America.
I Think it is Alot "Sooner than We Think" Time.
You won't have to Guess at the Mark of the Beast, you will have to Deny Jesus to get it.
I AM Seriously Thinking of Beginning a Long (and I mean Long!) Fast.
This Dosent' mean a Total Fast, with nothing but Water, but a Gradual Weaning of Food (always Drink LOTS of WATER) and Increasing of Praying, Reading the Bible so on.
I Really do think that it is Later than we Think.
Jesus Christ
GOD became a Man
Born of a Virgin
Died on the Cross
Risen from the Dead by The Father Above
IS
Lord

I don't know. I think the bible has alot of prophecy about the end times that is going on around us now. I'm not sure about the mark of the beast. It's been suggested it will be a chip that will be inserted in a person's forehead or hand without which no one will be able to buy or sell.
To prepare, I just do what the bible tells me to do; live my life for Jesus Christ and wait patiently for His return.

Jesus said that many of those alive in his time would see the beginning of the end, so yes, 2000 plus years later we still see the end times. This means we aren't to obcess about it or seek its conclusion in everyday events. Can you imagine how many peoples lives will be destroyed by any hacker if the Banks were allowed to govern with coded chips? By the way, the best way to fight any such plan is to get involved in Ham Radios who presently use the radio waves that the Chip industry wants.

2 Timothy 3
1. This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3. Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4. Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5. Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

Hmm, close but not quite.
Be on the look out for a war between Israel and Russia, because in teh Bible its mentioned about a war between a river in russia and a river in jersuleam. I'm not entierely certain and Christans, correct me if I'm wrong about it. My mom just read about it in her Bible, so I'm guessing its true. Something similar is in the Qu'ran, but you are seeking the Christan response.
I personally dont think its the end of days yet. It seemed pretty bad but things are looking better in my opinion. Compared to the 80's, this is nothing.

I don't look for signs. Nobody knows the time or the place. I am more inclined to prepare for my own death (which I know could happen tomorrow) rather than prepare for something completely unknown.

in the bible is said that one day god would destroy all evil and only leave peace on earth. that means that he will destroy humanity and start a whole new race which beleives in him. there is also a part that says that there will be an anti god, or a supreme being that will try to over rule god by giving humans all of their desires and make them believe in him. so i really dont know what the world has come to considering all the evil that is already present....
