Are We Living in the End Times?
These are easily the most exciting days to be alive, not just because of the breathtaking advances in technology and science, but because we twenty-first century Christians have more reason than any generation before us to believe that Christ will return to take us to His Father’s house. In fact, there are more than three hundred prophecies in the Bible detailing His second coming. That is three times the number of prophecies that foretold His first coming. And His first appearance on the earth is a certified fact of history. Therefore we can be three times more confident that Jesus is coming back to this earth a second time. Just hours before His crucifixion, Jesus Himself left us with this promise:
“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.” (John 14: 1-3)
We are not the first generation to think like this, of course, for history reveals that many interpreted the events of their day as fulfillments of end-time prophecies. In some cases their date setting and speculation turned off more people than it inspired, but at least they were studying the Scriptures in an attempt to properly discern the times. Many of them sincerely longed for Christ to end the moral corruption and deterioration of their age by ushering in His kingdom of righteousness. All Christians consider such a possibility an infinite improvement on this war-weary and sin-cursed world.
We should not be surprised that those of past generations were confused about end-time events, for even Daniel, one of the greatest of the Hebrew prophets, was commanded to “shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end” (Daniel 12:4; the “time of the end” refers to the days just before the beginning of the Tribulation, up to and including the second coming of Christ).
One reason for their confusion is that the sealing of endtime events made it more difficult to understand the “signs of the times.” The “unsealing” or ability to understand end-time prophecy, according to Daniel, would wait until “many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased” (Daniel 12:4, KJV). Hardly anyone doubts that ours is a day when people are “running to and fro” and knowledge has increased. Both secular knowledge and the knowledge of prophetic truth have increased tremendously in this century alone. We believe we are on the verge of obtaining even greater prophetic insights than at any other time in the last two millennia.

Are We Living in the End Times?
From noted Bible scholar Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins, the team who created the bestselling Left Behind™ series, comes an updated and expanded edition of the Christian classic, Are We Living in the End Times?
Twenty-seven percent of the Bible is devoted to prophecy—but most of us don’t focus that much of our Bible study on prophecy. Why? We’re confused. Or intimidated. Or both. This new edition takes away the mystery—and the intimidation.
The authors don’t predict Christ will return in our lifetime—but they believe the evidence suggests He will. They point out that ours is the first generation with the technology to fulfill many of Revelation’s prophecies. Also, according to the Bible, wars, pestilence and famine are signs of the end times. These events began on a titanic scale with World War l, while earthquakes and natural disasters, other end time signs, increased with alarming frequency.
The authors also describe the personalities who will play a part in the end times—including Satan, the Antichrist and the 144,000 witnesses.
Ideal for the layperson and biblical scholar alike, this new edition will motivate you to live a holier life in these challenging times.
