I would agree with one thing though concerning the end times, and many of you would say the same. Something over the last year or so seems to have set in motion.

You were saying ...
Something over the last year or so seems to have set in motion.
Well, I would take a longer-range viewpoint of that and say that several major (i.e., "pivotal points") have happened in the last several hundred years. And I'm saying these things in context of Israel and it being God's timepiece for the "last of the end days".
- One thing is the spreading of the Word of God to the entire world, through the Reformation, and through British power and then, the use of the King James Bible.
- Then there was a major move in the mid-1800s by evangelists looking to Israel as a future nation before God, even though they couldn't see how it could happen at the time.
- Then after that, comes at the end of the 1800s, the Jewish movement to move back to the land and regather the Jews from all over the world.
- Then comes the First World War, the collapse of the Turkish Empire, opening the way for the land of Israel to be settled once again by Jews.
- After that comes the Balfour Declaration, which Britain put itself in the position of guaranteeing a homeland for the Jews (although they reneged on it and suffered consequences for going back on their word).
- Then came the Second World War and the Holocaust, which prompted the move, on the part of many nations to establish a homeland for the Jews and the Jews themselves finally coming together forcefully to do so.
- And then, what prophecy teachers call the "super sign of Bible Prophecy" -- the "re-formation" of the nation of Israel, after having been extinct for almost 2,000 years, something that has never been done in the history of the world (and will almost certainly never be done by anyone else, ever again).
- Then it was the several wars with the Muslims, the Suez, the Six-Day War, the Yom Kippur War and the skirmishes.
- Then it was the Oslo Accords and the rest, after that -- has simply been the "playing out" of all these major "pivotal points"...
I don't think there has been anything more, recently, than the continuous evolution of what these "major pivotal points" in recent history have already provided for God's Prophetic plan for Israel.

MANY true believers feel the same way. Over the past year or two things have “begun rolling”! Our current Administration actually BELIEVING IN A ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT and possible one-world currency-—and this Administration “hanging-out” with those who want to take us down that road. Simply AMAZING that our government would be “so open” about it, also! And ALL true believers KNOW what Revelation means about the choice of persecution deaths in the “end” will be “BEHEADINGS”. When I first read that 30 years ago I thought WHAT? NO ONE “beheads” anymore! Well, I was WRONG about that, wasn’t I?
