Why can eyes of faith see the prophetic evidence of the last days-While SKEPTICS only make light of bible prophecy??

It is called denial.

Because since the Bible was written, people have been claiming that EVERYTHING is a "sign" that the end is coming---SOON. It's been "coming soon" for over 2000 years. It's ridiculous, that's why we make "light" of it.
(Not to mention that it's frightening how some people seem to be really on fire to help it along. If the world does end, it will be nothing more than a self-fulfilled prophesy.) The whole Christian End Times myth is becoming the most selfish, self-serving, unproductive belief ever. If the "eyes of faith" all want to live for doom and gloom, go right ahead, but please, stop holding the rest of us hostage to your hopeless, delusional, warped view of the world.

Most people have never read the bible and it is easy to make fun of others when they do. The bible says it will be just as in the days of Noah when they least expected it.
1 Thessalonians says that when they are saying peace and security. So they will feel the problems are behind them when the government will turn on religon. Rev 17;17God will put it into their hearts to do that way.

The evidence is nothing but a combination of self fulfilling prophecy, such as the resurrection of the state of Israel, combined with confirmation bias.

Because people see what they want see and the skeptics make fun of what they don't want to understand. YES I said they don't want to understand, they could if they would remove their selfish pride from the equation and stop being unappreciative for the what they have been given.

People of faith have been seeing evidence of the end for more than a thousand years. It means nothing.

In the end times, deception will be the rule of the day instead of the truth for most.

Christians don't fear it. Non-Christians fear it and therefore either ignore it altogether or pretend it's a "fairy tale" (to quote a few athiests on here).

Because that is the nature of human beings. There are always those who will believe and always those who will not believe. There are always those who will obey and always those who will not.
