It appears that there's no basis whatsoever to claim an increase in activity. Given that, you would do well not to expose yourself to the inevitable jeering that comes with making that suggestion.
Keep in mind that throughout human history, there have always been people who claim the world is about to come to an end. Their batting average is zero. Unless there's a very solid answer to the question of why this case might be different, it's good to remember that the world still exists despite legions who have claimed it would not.
Goodness! I wouldn't think things were normal if someone wasn't jeering at me!
Time will tell regarding my interpretation of Biblical prophecies as referring to our era being equal to the last of the last days.
I'm quite comfortable staying with that interpretation. The injunction about the watchman who knows and doesn't warn is very strict, indeed. I do not want to be caught on the wrong side of that one. By comparison, jeering is nothing.
I'm used to seeing, thinking, feeling, knowing things ahead of lots of other people. Sometimes I'm wrong. Many times, I'm not.
But, thanks for the exhortation.
