Though of course, the question is when is the end-times era? In the first century people believed it was when Christ died, the Apostles were crucified, Jerusalem was destroyed.
Then people felt that when the Western Roman Empire fell in 430 AD when the last Western Emperor abdicated and barbarians Germanics were rulers (the Visigoths and Lombards who ruled Spain-France and Italy respectively were Arians, disbelieving the divinity of Christ) -- people felt that those were the end times
Then if you read literature from 999 AD, again people felt it was the end of the world.
The during the reformatting people felt the same
Then during the horrors of the World Wars
Then at the turn of the millenium, etc. etc.

.......And much more recent, the time of 9/11, and much more recent, the economic difficulties and the actions of the Obama White House, ete when there were thoughts of the end times.

You are bright enough . . . and probably even informed enough
to
KNOW
that no other era
not even all the other eras combined
come remotely close to the same ball park as this era
in terms of Biblical prophecies about the end times.
At most, the other eras MAY have had 1-3
SLIGHTLY SORTA MAYBE A LITTLE BIT
of factor(s)
a little bit in the DIRECTION OF 1-3 Biblical prophecies about the end times.
That’s just a fact.
The rebirth of Israel in 1948 set the prophetic clock racing forward in speed and multiplicity of fulfilled, increasingly fulfilled Biblical END TIMES PROPHECIES as NEVER before.
Denial of that fact is either willful, a result of poor teaching, laziness, gross ignorance, gross bias or spiritual blindness.

Though of course, the question is when is the end-times era?The Catholic religion has unwittingly given us the answer...
The Middle ages are from 500 AD to 1500 AD...Thus, the beginning of the (church) Age is from 0 to 500 AD, give or take a few...Obviously then the end is approximately 500 years past the end of the Middle Ages, give or take a few years...Know where that puts ya???
