Are We in the End Times? How Long Do We Have?

[Big Boy Johnson]

If you read the whole Apostolic Record you can see from the Synoptics Gospels to the Apostles writing that the end was for them in that time…

You're going to be shocked at upcoming events unfold in modern times

People that believe it all happened already (preterists) will be taking the mark of the beast thinking the anti-christ is a true man of God as they are deceived by his fake miracles and great speech

 

[MatthewG]

I remember when I was about 13, my friend Danny told me something intense—that in the end times, people would gather your family and chop off their hands until you accepted the number of the beast. That stuck with me, but life kept moving forward.

I genuinely feel for those who’ve been misled over the years—waiting for Jesus to return, only to be told they misunderstood the timeline or fed another story to keep them hanging on. That kind of confusion can be really disheartening.

Even back in the early centuries after Jesus ascended, believers were encouraged to hold on, stay strong, and wait patiently. There was a powerful hope that Jesus would come back to gather his bride and conquer sin, death, hell, and Satan.

History—and Scripture—tells of dark times: plagues, famine, even heartbreaking stories of families resorting to unthinkable acts just to survive. Some of this is recorded not only in the Bible but also by historians like Josephus.

Does it resonate with most people today? Maybe not.

Still, even now, folks keep saying, “Just wait—something awful is coming.” Honestly, every year brings its own troubles, and that’s nothing new for me personally.

As for me, I don’t believe Jesus will return in the same literal way as that first generation expected. But I do believe he continues to reveal himself—in the hearts of those who rise with him and live by the Spirit of Christ.

No Scripture Matt??? No surprise. You're filled with YOUR unBiblical opinions.

The question on everyone’s lips today is, “Are we living in the end times?”

From wars and plagues to rising moral decay and freak weather, even atheists are wondering if something is wrong.

What Does the Bible Say About the End Times?
Jesus taught explicitly about the end times in Matthew 24. His disciples asked Him the same question:

“Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” (Matthew 24:3, ESV)...(link removed)

Dear Kor4e,
The prophecies presented in Matthew chapter 24 and in the book of Revelation are presented in Christ's spiritual language. Those prophesies foretell the spiritual signs that precede an Elect person's moment of conversion. Those spiritual events have applied to all the Elect since Paul's death when the apostasy of the church began. The only prophesied event that happens at the literal end of this age is the bodily resurrection from the grave.

The "ends of the ages" come upon an Elect person when Christ spiritually returns to them and pours out the Latter Rain of the Spirit (the baptism of the Holy Spirit).

1Cor 10:11 Now all these things happened to them as types, and have been written for our (the Elect) admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come.

The book of Revelation confirms this understanding in the verses below. Have you ever truly considered what these verses say?

Rev 1:3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for THE TIME IS AT HAND.

Rev 1:4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne...

Rev 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

Rev 4:8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.

Rev 22:7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.

Rev 22:10 And he saith unto me, SEAL NOT the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for THE TIME IS AT HAND.

The sayings of the book include chapter 13 which presents an apostate believer has a seven headed beast who is governed by the spirit of anti-Christ, the second beast. This is the apostasy that all the Elect have kept since the book of Revelation was written. It does not happen only at the literal end of this age.

Do you really think that wars, plagues, freak weather and moral decay are any worse now than they were 2,000 years ago? If you do, you don't know your history.

How Long Do We Have?
Now the summer temperature has come to 40 degrees Celsius, I think when it comes to close to 50 degrees Celsius, That's about all the time we have left.

1:28
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

The development of modern science and technology has led to a distorted model of economic growth, accelerating the deterioration of humanity's living environment. According to God's word, humans have not conquered nature—instead, they will face retribution from the inherent laws of nature.(or the life system nature rules of God)

In the past, if a region suffered drought, floods would not immediately follow. But now, everything has changed—droughts and floods successively strike the same area.

I won’t elaborate on the larger picture, for it has already been written in the Book of Revelation.

 

[TheOneHeLoves]

we don't know. NO ONE know but God The Father Himself. Live each moment like it is the end.

Why is that so hard for people? debating the end is futile.
Debate Jesus' teachings/parables if you must but Judgement day is not known until it is here.

 

[IndianaRob]

We are in the last days of this age which is not the last days written about in the Bible.

 

[soberxp]

We are in the last days of this age which is not the last days written about in the Bible.

If every one obey the word of God,the word of life.
Then there will be no the last days.

But the reality is not, we the human against the word of God,the word of life.

We study the Bible not only spiritually, but also the whole world, then we could know that the word of God it is very true and useful for any of us.

The natural laws of the world exist to support life, the Bible which is a book of life,
God is a living God, We learn, we think, we discover,
The survival of the whole world does not contradict the word of God.
Also the survival of life does not contradict the word of God.

If we obey the God,the word of God,we are alive and have life.

Else death and death.

Absolutely! The only reason these resets keep happening is because man ALWAYS corrupts and God, out of mercy, starts the whole thing over.

Yes, God's mercy has been revealed since the Rainbow Covenant with Noah,

I've been thinking about this for a long time, and I can't find a reasonable explanation. Since the great flood, God said he would never do it again.

Although the plagues of Revelation seem to come from the will of God,

But the fact is, these are natural and man-made disasters.

God made unbelievers vessels of destruction,
At the time of judgment, God will tell them carefully why they became vessels of destruction and why they ended up like this.

Because the outcome or result is the truest answer.

Like a child taking an exam, you don't know his true score until he has done all the questions.

Noah’s flood is only one example of a reset. God promised he would not destroy the earth with a flood again but he did not promise he would not destroy the world using other methods.

There is no telling how many times this has happened throughout history.

This time will be no more water, I'm serious.
The drink water.

"Yet this was no calamity sent by God,
for He had sworn to Noah never again
to destroy mankind by any means—
not merely withholding the Flood,
but all forms of annihilation."

Not these things, remember the last words in the Bible, whoever is thirsty should come, and thirst is not just spiritual, It's both.

Last time is great flood, so this time is no more water.

22:17
And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

 

[LoveYeshua]

Are We in the End Times? How Long Do We Have?​

My understanding is that we have around 1,050 years before the final judgement of Mankind.

How did you come to this conclusion?

I tend to agree!

 

[Jay Ross]

How did you come to this conclusion?

I read the Bible, or what we have left of it, and was able to see the topology of the timeline it contained.

I did not set out to solve when the end of the timeline, for mankind as we exist today, was, but rather I set out to understand God and what He has put in place for us to know of His intentions.

Our confusion as to how God intents for His prophetic words to be understood is an, our problem. God has not hidden anything from us and from the time of His creation of Adam, He has consistently warned that if we sin against Him that we will become a candidate for the second death at the time of the final judgement at the end of the seventh Age, then our desire should be for all of mankind to only worship God.

But mankind always wants to solve what we do not understand rather than to allow the remedy to be revealed in due course. God in the second commandment has plainly told us to Love Him as the Lord God, and to keep His statutes and commandment.

However, many of God's promised time span endings are beyond our ability to comprehend or understand when they have reached their completion.

The end of the visitation of the fathers of Israel iniquities during the first and second ages of their existence, will come to its conclusion at the end of the children's, children's fourth age of their existence which is rapidly coming to its completion at the end of this present age in around 20 years' time from now. The signs of its completion have been told to us in the Book of Revelation and Matthew 24:31.

Now if you add the duration of an age to the above mentioned 20 years then we will come to around 1,050 years from now which has been rounded to the nearest half century so as to not be precise so that we will focus on our love of and worshipping of God and the keeping of His statutes and commandments which God told to the nation of Israel at Mt Sinai.

Shalom
