Don't let your end time theology ruin your faith to overcome this world, your faith to be the victor in Christ. Jesus returning to take us away is a faith that weakens the resolve to make the world a better place, it weakens the resolve to win, overcome and conquer by faith in the word of God. End time theology makes Christians weak, waiting instead of acting, expecting God to fix everything, and not take responsibility for making the kingdom of God on earth. God is not going to fix it without people of faith taking action. Don't let your doctrine make you a weak poor example of a human being.

I bet even the Christians before during war thought it was already their end time. Hmm.
Yes, a relevant point.
Actually, even the disciples thought their time was the end times. Believers have been on tenderhooks since day one. Even Jesus said "what does it matter to you if I come back before he dies?" implying it was just a few years away.
However, "now we see dimly, then we shall see clearly"
There are a bunch of scriptural and logical reasons for understanding what the end times actually are, how they will present, and what will happen.
So, actually, we need better understanding that just thinking "goodness, the Schiesen is hitten das Fanen!" so it must be the last days!
No, reason, logic, faith and most importantly understanding need to combine.
"Surely the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants the prophets." Amos 3:7
Certain prophets KNEW when Christ was born, although the religious leaders of the day did NOT. Thus, when the time is ripe, the truth will be revealed. I understand what I see happening today because I understand about the nature of the Last Days. I don't understand the nature of the Last Days because of what I see today!
Just saying.
