It is detailed in the bible that Jesus will return for a second coming. Has the world now came to a stage where it would be right for Jesus to come again.

Why of course it is! The time has always been right! He can come down on his big pink dragon from the sky and fly around and zap all those silly atheists with his ray gun. And then all the happy smug christians get to be proven right! And you have all eternity to think about how right you were.
Oh joy, the apocalypse.

Studying both Daniel and Revelation we can see that once Israel retook it's land and sattelites are now up where the whole world can see live events all over,now Jesus can return anytime.The stage is set and it is the Holy Spirit restraining the Rapture of the Church that is keeping Anti-Christ in check.When we go up....he come out.The first 3 years they will think he is a saint ,the peacemaker of the world .After that for the next 4 years all Hell will break out on earth.
References I Thessalonians 4:14-18 ,5:9 II Thessalonians 2,Daniel 7 :23-28,Daniel 12 and of course all of Revelation.Also Zechariah 11:15-17 and 13:7-9 and all of 14.

I believe it is very soon. A new generation is rising with our teenagers and children. I believe they are getting very serious about the LORD.
1990 is said to be the year that the most abortions occurred. Therefore, those who are about 17 years old have had the greatest threat of being murdered before even being born. And this figure is also said to be greater among Christians than other religious groups. There were two times in the Bible that Satan attempted to wipe out so many babies born to the righteous. One was when Moses was born. Satan knew that he would be the one to lead the Israelites out of slavery. The second time was when Jesus was born. Satan knew then that Jesus would be the one to lead the world out of the slavery of sin.
I haven't really looked into it, but there were rumors about Yitzchak Kaduri, a great Rabbi in Israel. He claims to have met the Messiah and discovered his name. He wrote the Messiah's name by writing a phrase with each letter of the name as the first letter of each word in the phrase. He asked for it not to be opened until after he died. The name was Yehoshua, which is Jesus in Hebrew. His son says it was a forgery, but I would too if I was Jewish and found out my father had written that Jesus is the Messiah.
I believe that these and a combination of many other factors says that our LORD is coming very soon.

Well, we do have ways to communicate all over the world from where we are now. Also, doesn't the Bible say something about Israel and the world? I don't remember right off-hand, but last year they were saying something about Israel on the news. I don't know. By the way, joe_citizen person, Jesus is NOT DEAD! He was resurrected three days after He died! That's why we celebrate Easter! Think a little bit!

I don't think any of us can answer that. Honestly, if we could, do you think we'd be sitting on Yahoo!Answers. What I do believe, is that if you look close enough, you can find similarities in the prophecy and nearly every decade since mankind began. They are always predicting, because there are always wars and hate and murder, etc. going on. So they always think it's the end of the world. But I don't think it's going to happen in my lifetime. I think there is still too much good in the world for God to end it now.

I feel like there is a time coming when something will happen, but I don't think that time will come just yet. When our faith in our civilizations begin to wane we will turn to a higher power to deliver us from our troubles, and maybe then Jesus will return. We hope we get to see wonderful things in our lifetime that blow our minds, but don't forget it will still be an awful time.

According to Mathew 16:28, the end of the world, and Jesus return, was supposed come before all of his apostles died.
"Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom. "
All of his apostles are dead.

Thinking about the "end times" is a distraction from spreading the Gospel and a waste of time. We don't know when things are going to take place or what the details are, and there have been plenty of cults started by people who THOUGHT they knew the answers. God will take care of you if you are in Him. Stop worrying about it and go harvest.

I think it's coming pretty close. When you study into prophesy a lot of things if they are being interpretted correctly have already come to pass. I know to be very aware when the peace treaty is signed in the middle east. Then we know for sure that we have entered. However, it is very important to always be ready for Christ to come back...

According to muslim prophecies, we are yet to wait 2 person before Jesus' second advent. A person who will restore order then an ultimate evil "person" before Jesus is to come.
But that's according to hadiths (traditions) which might or might not be true.
