Are We In The End Times?

[Humanity]

We have not yet equaled the times of Noah. As far as I know no babies are being sacrificed to volcanic lava lakes, but maybe so. We have not yet seen on TV an image of the Beast statue speaking "great things" that challenge holy God. Well, I haven't kept up with the latest proclamations of the Demoncrats, so might be a little behind. What is the end extreme that Noah faced? We don't know the intensity level. Earlier generations before us would not even mentally conceive their next pastor would be a homosexual. I witnessed that dilemma in a very evangelical Methodist church here, their new pastor welcoming all types of perverts who are publically demonstrating their physical attractions. That congregation has dwindled from over 300 to about 25 saints who just can't abandon their childhood refuge. How God weighs such things has to do with when He sends Jesus back, no doubt to me. Considering how often and much that Christians have suffered persecutions, along with those of Jews, makes it very much more difficult to predict the long suffering of God. He is far more liberal with grace than any of us.

A sure sign you have missed the opportunity to bypass the great judgment of the tribulation is if you see Israel take up the ministry of the Church. I estimate we are now at the brink of Rev 5:14, even though the Church has been holding there all along. The Church tries to see the end as eminent, while God is not confined to time. Like a burglar coming, the next phase will happen when least expecting. LEAST expecting! Maybe that is the moment when the Church stops expecting?

Yes I believe the end times are coming very soon. Once Israel and Palestine sign the peace agreement and the third temple is being built then the clock countdown for the rapture starts ticking.

 

[Samson2020]

Is that pre trib or post trib you speak of? Pre trib is a false doctrine!! Why would God test and try those that came before us all the way to their death and not the last of us? Do we not require this testing and trying for refinement as well?

I agree and I believe in the mid-post tribulation. I was just pointing out that the building of the third temple has to happen in order for the tribulation and rapture to take place according to Revelation.

They have eyes but they do not see they have ears but they do not hear comes to mind in this age the signs the Bible warns about are all around us. Satan worship is all around us these days it was hidden a few years back but they don't even bother to do that anymore. Look at the political arena the HATE, the lies, they don't even try to hide it. Look at the news media there is no truth there just more of the same they have sold out to people like Soros, Rothchilds, and a thousand others equally evil. They worship the devil the Prime Minister of Australia made a public apology of nearly an hour long because they were taking children out of the government health care system and using them in Satanic rituals. You will find from this country if you search for this story they will block access to that speech. The very same kinds of things have been said of this country children have been being used the same way here. Planned Parenthood how many children are killed each year and the body parts sold for a profit and your taxes pay for it. Protect the snail and ignore the murder of millions of children even in the days when they sacrificed their children to Moloch and Baal did they kill so many children. God will bring to ruin those ruining the Earth, the Oceans have islands of plastic trash floating in them, huge sink holes open up and because they have sucked the oil or water out from under them and created huge caverns under the ground, earth quakes where they never had them before same thing. They are destroying forests at a alarming rate. Look at the people around you. Do I even have to say more there. They have openly started persecuting Christians in this country and started openly supporting every perverted sick thing you can think of. Just like in the days of "Noah" and "Sodom and Gomorrah" they continued life unchanged until the day their destruction was on them.
When they declare peace and security destruction will be instantly upon them. No one knows the day of Christs return but from watching the signs you can know it is VERY close. I am sure it will get much worse before that day arrives but it is not far off. The generation that saw Israel become a nation again will see Christs return. And that does not leave a very long time to fulfill that prophecy.
Open your eyes to the world around you and read your Bible and you will know the time is "very near". Or like in Noah's day God will shut the door and it will be too late.

Planned Parenthood comes to mind millions of babies are killed each year so think again not even Moloch and Baal had as many sacrifices as take place every year in America!

If you read Matt 24:15 you will see the first sign Jesus says to watch for. It is the abomination spoken of by Daniel the prophet. But if you study Daniel you will see a sign that comes before the abomination. It is a 7 year covenant with many nations. It is in the midst of this seven years that the abomination is to be set up. Most teach that it is in the middle rather than in the midst. Every bible I have read says middle accept the KJV. If we look at Daniel 8 we see that the little horn is the one who sets up the abomination and takes away the daily sacrifice. When asked how long this would be the angel says 2300 days.
Do we have a covenant. Notice it does not say a peace treaty. Then yes we do. There have been more than one over the ears but only one fits for our time. Is t the one we are watching for? Time will tell.
This is the European Partnership Instrument first signed by Jovier Solana on Jan 1, 2007 and then again on Jan 1 2014. It is interesting that 2300 days from the signing is April 19, 2020. Only a few days after Easter. I am not setting a date. Bin there done that. But I am saying watch!
The second sign is the rapture of the child of Revelation 12. This is when Jesus' Holy Ghost is taken out of the way so the wicked one can sit in the temple. It is the Holy Ghost who is holding the wicked one back. We are told that the Holy Ghost will never leave us nor forsake us so if He goes then anyone who has received him and is obedient must go as well.
This is not the gathering of the saints mentioned in 2 Thess 2:1-3. That can't take place until after the wicked one sits in the temple. The Holy Ghost goes before the wicked one sits in the temple. Yes there are 2 raptures. Rev 3 tells us that the Lord will not allow us to go thru the our of temptation that comes on the children of disobedience. This is speaking of the child of Rev 12 and the woman. The child is all who go when the Holy Ghost returns to Jesus. The woman is all believers who have not received the Holy Ghost and are not obedient to God's word. She goes into a wilderness for 1260 days. They will overcome the devil by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony. These will be gathered at the last, great 7th trumpet.
So the question is are we in the final 100 days? I would have to say we are in the final 10 years perhaps.
The players are all here for the grand finale. The anti-Christ Pope, The Islamic false prophet. Israel and Palestine. Iran. Turkey, (perhaps the little horn) 10 full member states of the EU. all of the fixtures and everything needed to build the temple. Even the ark has been found. All we need is the child to be taken out of the way.
We don't really need a temple built yet. Scripture doesn't tell us who builds it. Matthew is clear that the Jews will be taken back into captivity so it may not be them to build it. The catholic church also has plans to build the temple so that the Pope can sit in it and become the embodiment of Christ. The Vatican does not believe Jesus was resurrected and is coming back.
It will be interesting to see how the prophecies unfold. I can tell you this, it will not be exactly as we have been told.

Do you believe that we are in the very end times, where Jesus can return within the next 100 years or so?

I would advise using the book of Revelation as a gauge of where you think we're living in currently chronologically.

Some thoughts about the end times signs...

This is meant to be a fun poll and bible discussion. Ultimately:

Matthew 24:36 - But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.

I absolutely believe we R living in the end times. I know also there are many that have not heard about JESUS. Many things must happen before his great an terrible coming. I pray people turn to JESUS now before it's to late. Know JESUS is free. He paid the price for us all. I have no doubt JESUS can change your life. For this child is pure living proof.. prayers for all living things.

We are living in the very dangerous times the christ return could happen any moment from now

 

[FileOfLife]

I do believe we are living in Revelations right now, I also believe that this year, 2020, is going to show all of us exactly where we are in Revelations. I search, dig, because I sincerely believe it is indeed anytime now.....with a constant reminder of God's Timing, one day a thousands years, a thousands years one day { for me } that leads me too Revelations, No One Knows The Hour When Jesus Will Return, Only God!! So 100 years { to me } is any time now......His Kingdom does indeed Draw Nigh, At Hand.....I honestly believe this.

 

[William L. P.]

Look at 1 John 1:8

ROMANS 4:22-25 Therefore, it was credited to him for righteousness. Now it was credited to him was not written for Abraham alone, but also for us. It will be credited to us who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. He was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our justification.

Justification
a forensic term, opposed to condemnation. As regards its nature, it is the judicial act of God, by which he pardons all the sins of those who believe in Christ, and accounts, accepts, and treats them as righteous in the eye of the law, i.e., as conformed to all its demands. In addition to the pardon (q.v.) of sin, justification declares that all the claims of the law are satisfied in respect of the justified. It is the act of a judge and not of a sovereign. The law is not relaxed or set aside, but is declared to be fulfilled in the strictest sense; and so the person justified is declared to be entitled to all the advantages and rewards arising from perfect obedience to the law (Rom 5:1 10).

 

[Thomas (With out a doubt)]

Oh, for heavens sake!

Jesus, God's Son is recorded as saying that even He does not know when His Father will end the world.

What makes any of you so presumptuous as to think that you are wiser than Jesus ?

Please wrap up this silly discussion and instead, help all our fellow earthly inhabitants to believe in Jesus and live as though God will end the world before I get to the end of this se

The 'end times' is really a broad term. If it's meaning the rapture of the Church -- that Won't be the 'end of the world'. And it Is true that No one knows when the rapture will take place. Most likely Before anything seriously horrible happens. Because the Church has Accepted Jesus Christ. Not the RCC group, but the Church that Jesus Christ founded. All born-again believers Will be taken up and out. But the world continues on with lots of activity -- even through the 1,000 earthly reign of Jesus Christ.

The Father will end This world and bring down the New Jerusalem Himself -- This present world will be destroyed for Real at least 1007 yrs. from now.

Our salvation NOW is the most important.

As one with a beam in my eye who believes that he is saved, it is other people's salvation that is most important.

The Cross, is I crossed out.

 

[Sue D.]

Why do you say it's a beam in your eye to believe that you're saved? You Do believe in eternal security of the believer, right?

Well -- "my" salvation is important. How do we share Our testimony with others if we don't have one ourselves.

Every single person is important / valuable in God's eyes. -- John 3:16 "For God so loved the World ( you and me and everybody) that He gave...."

End times is approaching
According to 2nd ,Thessalonians 2, the man of perdition, the antichrist cannot be made know until that which is holding him back is taken out of the way. This is the way it is written in scripture.
So, something is keeping the antichriast from coming out, make his appearance. Jesus said I'll never leave you , I'll never forsake you. I think as long as there are believers in Christ in this world, the holy spirit will remain.
that which is holding back the antichrist is the Holy Spirit, ( my guess). people die every day, this whole will soon reach point where evil over takes good I presume christians will die off, it will be suttle.
Jesus said "I come as a thief in the night. the Last Christian taken, dies, then no need fr Holy Spirit. nothing to hold bad the antichrist.
Please read 2nd Thes. 2
then comes the seven year tribulation . In the beginning the Jews have found the 3 year old unblemished "RED Heifer." they have permission and Jews begin building the temple and assume worship and Blood sacrifice as in times of old times.
The "Red Heifer" was the key.
The mid point, 3 1/5 years the Jews are shocked and disperse. Jesus calls the "Abomination of Desolation"
during the end of the seventh year begins Zechariah 14. The beginning of the Kingdom.
The end will begin to turn after President Trump completes his mission. Then I believe evil will over shadow good and then until That which is taken out of the way.

Please read it as:- One, imperfect as I am, who believes he is saved...............followed by the obvious:- Jesus, who is perfect, made other people's salvation the most important thing.

[Petrus]

Everything the bible spoke has happened except for all tribes n languages heard about christ and the amount of martys are complete in heaven. These two things r happening n r near to completion. Only when the great comission is complete n the martys r comp#lete in heaven will the world end n so as it is near completion in terms of the world knowing christ, most probably n i am 99.99% sure the world would end this century. Jesus said we would not know the day or hour but mentioned in terms of happening we will roughly know it is near. God gave us scripture in terms of events so that we will know it is near. This is to prepare us in terms of living a good life knowing the end is near. Got gave us ample clues n only short of the exact day so that we r prepared like the bridesmaid with oil.
