[Telepathic Intruder]

"he didn't mean "end" in a literal sense

Biblically, the "end" of the world means the end of Satan's rule and the beginning of God's rule on Earth. The current state of the world is a fallen one, when the rebellious angels under Satan brought the corruption they created in Heaven to Earth. Since then the powers of this world have marched to the devil's drum. The end of the world refers to a change of drummers.

yes, I do agree and that’s what Newton indicated. Not to mention the Bible says that as well! :>)
