I’ve been wondering this ever since covid hit. I remember the day my whole office was shut down, and we were sent home to work due to covid. I felt like something shifted when I saw the (fake) videos coming out of China showing ppl dropping dead in the street. It felt like something big had changed, spiritually. Ever since then, I’ve been paying close attention. I’m on this board every day for the past year. The thing I can’t form an opinion on is whether we are legitimately in end times, or if this is just a blip on the radar of history similar to something like WWII. Some Christians I talk to say we are definitely in end times and that rapture or apocalypse is definitely coming within the next few years. Others don’t think so at all. I want to hear your opinions. Do you guys think we will all come out of this eventually and the world will go on in a better way, or do you think Jesus comes back SOON? If Jesus IS coming back soon, what timeframe are you thinking?

Well in the bible the last days are described BY Jesus and subsequently by the apostles, and the biggest take home is be ready. Be ready means know Jesus, be born again and saved. The description of what to look for-- is as in the days of Noah and of Sodom and Gommorah--which are the 2 times God intervened bc it was literally that bad.
Note the things that particularly characterized the awfulness of their debauchery--unnatural sexual relations. In Noahs time, it was with nonhumans/angel I guess we can interpret as demonic beings, and they were having babies with them. In S & G--well the name sodom tells a lot. The homosexual men were raping and taking boys from homes, doing all kinds of perversions.
In BOTH examples, we are told the rest of the normal life continued in the midst of it. Eating, drinking, marrying, buying & selling, etc.all things pertaining to life. This can be understood as not that thats wrong, but Id say the numbness rather than outrage at the atrocities was not ok.
So we are told when you see it looking LIKE THAT-- be ready, dont be caught off guard. But when someone tells you within x years or at this time--dont listen bc its clear the signs alone is how we know the 'signs of the times'. Not bc of what a pastor/tv evangelist says or anyone else. By being AWAKE and seeing with our own eyes whats happening and with this, be ready--know Jesus.
Note also endtimes are known by DECEPTION, PPL NEEDING TO WAKE UP, COWARDLINESS, FEAR OF MAN as well as extreme debauchery of the worse kind.
Looking around at what’s going on in the world makes me think we are at sodom and ghommora (sp) levels right now. The whole transgender agenda and LGBTQ being so accepted, the pedo stuff that is everywhere, and the fact that most ppl don’t care enough to pay attention. They would rather watch keeping up with the kardasians. Stuff like that is what makes me think we are close
