Do You Believe We're Living in The Last Days? Second Timothy 3:1-5 says: "But know this, that...

War on a large scale. Jesus foretold: "Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom." (Matthew 24:7)

Famine. Jesus foretold: "There will be food shortages." (Matthew 24:7)

Disease. According to Jesus, there would be pestilences or epidemics of "terrible diseases." (Luke 21:11)

Crime. Although crime has existed for centuries, Jesus foretold that in the last days, there would be an "increasing of lawlessness." (Matthew 24:12)

Ruining of the earth. (Revelation 11:18) foretold that mankind would be "ruining the earth." They would do so in many ways, not only through violent and corrupt actions but also by bringing harm to the environment.

Religious hypocrisy. In (2 Timothy 3:5), the Bible foretold that people would appear to worship God but would not truly live by his standards.

Breakdown of the family. In (2 Timothy 3:2, and 3), the Bible foretold that many people would have "no natural affection" for their family and that children would be "disobedient to parents."

Widespread apathy and ridicule. Jesus foretold that people in general would ignore the overwhelming evidence of the approaching end. (Matthew 24:37-39) More than that, (2 Peter 3:3, and 4) foretold that some would ridicule the evidence, dismissing it completely.

Many people are distressed by these critical times. They are concerned that society itself is deteriorating. Some even feat for the future of humanity. Meanwhile, others who are likewise distressed by world conditions have a hopeful outlook. They are convinced that God's Kingdom will soon take action to rid the world of its problems. (Daniel 2:44 | Revelation 21:3, and 4) They wait patiently for God to fulfill his promises, and they find comfort in the words of Jesus: "The one who has endured to the end will be saved." (Matthew 24:13 | Micah 7:7)

No I don’t. There’s no more death and destruction now then any other point in human history.

If people want to see signs, they’ll see them.

No I don't. People have made "End Times" claims in the year 999, year 1666, whenever a big comet showed up, and many other times. Predicting "Final Days" just seems to be human nature.

In 1806, a domesticated hen in Leeds, England, appeared to lay eggs inscribed with the message “Christ is coming.” Great numbers of people reportedly visited the hen and began to despair of the coming Judgment Day. It was soon discovered, however, that the eggs were not in fact prophetic messages but the work of their owner, who had been writing on the eggs in corrosive ink and reinserting them into the poor hen’s body.

Johannes Stöffler, a respected German mathematician and astrologer, predicted that a great flood would cover the world on February 25, 1524, when all of the known planets would be in alignment under Pisces, a water sign. Hundreds of pamphlets announcing the coming flood were issued and set in motion a general panic; Count von Iggleheim, a German nobleman, went so far as to build a three-story ark. Though there was light rain on the day of the predicted flood, no actual flooding materialized.

Here are several "End Times" predictions in the last decade that didn't come true:

Yes I believe we're seconds from the return of the Messiah. All the things mentioned in the scripture above I've seen people do. People are okay with doing wrong and even advising other people to take the same path. I just wanna go home at this point. We got to hold onto our identity in Christ and do what he sent us to do before his return so people don't end up in the lake of fire for all eternity.

No-one survives it, on earth. Everything will be obliterated.

Any prophecies made in that book are only fulfilled in that book. No independent confirmation. Ever.
