This is Part 2 of the 9-part series. I will detail some of the prophecies in the Bible given for the ‘last days’ and the evidence of these prophecies having recently happened, are happening now or beginning to happen now. We can now witness these prophetic events happening or starting to develop so that the events prophesised are ready to come to pass during the tribulation period. Jesus said (Matthew 24:25) that he told us of these prophecies in advance so we would know ahead of time and when you see these prophecies being fulfilled, you will know the time of the end is near (Matthew 24:33).
Bible verse: Matthew 24:34 Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away
Generally accepted interpretation: A sure sign of the end of the world is that “all these things” (of Matthew 24) are taking place. Those who are on the earth then will have only a short time left. That is, they will be the last generation.
Evidence of the prophecy happening: This verse is interpreted to mean that those born after Israel’s establishment in 1948, if they live a natural long life, will be the last generation on earth. Therefore, those who are Christians will not die, but will be raptured into Heaven. The proof of this cannot be far away as 75 years as already passed. The Bible says no human will live longer than 120 years (Genesis 6:3).
The key point here is the word ‘ALL’. There have been many occasions throughout history when there have been wars, earthquakes, famines etc.
However, Jesus describes the events that will indicate the coming of the end in Matthew 24:33, Luke 21 and Mark 13 and says ALL these events must be taking place progressively and more frequently and simultaneously and at a global scale as they are happening now and intensifying. The global nature of the events described is the key factor that could not have happened beforehand due to the lack of technology etc in earlier times. For example:
- The Trend of Global Travel (Daniel 12:4a)
- The Trend of Global Knowledge (Daniel 12:4b)
- The Trend of Global Weather (Luke 21:25-26)
- The Trend of Global Communication (Revelation 11:9-10)
- The Trend of Global Evangelism (Matthew 24:14)
- The Trend of Global Pandemics (Matthew 24:7/Luke 21:11)
- The Trend of Global Digital Money & Global Tracking (Rev. 13:16-17)
- The Trend of Weapons of Global Destruction (Matthew 24:21-22)
- The Trend of Global Peace, Prosperity & Materialism (1 Thes. 5:3)
- The Trend of Global Hatred For Israel (Zechariah 12:3).
Bible verse: Matthew 24:22, Mark 13:20, Revelation 3:11, 22:7,12,20 And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.
Generally accepted interpretation: This concept of God’s drawing things in the end days to a rapid close is echoed in many other passages of Scripture.
Evidence of the prophecy happening: The coming final period of the earth is limited to 7 years as the things taking place are so dramatic that most will not survive it. The evidence of this coming event is the exponential pace of change now happening in the world. Think about how many things have changed in the last few years. For example, good being called evil and evil things being called good. The rapid rise of socialism/Marxism in the West, the rapid rise of homosexuality, transexual practices and other perversions etc. The destabilising of our economic and social systems, our health systems and our financial systems and our food systems. All these are rapidly changing in readiness for the tribulation period. See: https://morethandigital.info/en/exponential-change-due-exponential-growth/
Bible verse: Isaiah 5:8-30 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.
Generally accepted interpretation: There are many people today who call evil “good” and good “evil,” as they promote behaviours that the Bible specifically calls sinful. The celebration of homosexuality and the defence of abortion on demand are usually accompanied by a mockery of those who value life and promote traditional marriage. Evil is being called “good,” and good is slandered as “evil.”
Evidence of the prophecy happening: Christians are being labelled as “intolerant” and “oppressive” and ‘bigots’ in the mainstream media and by those who celebrate perverted sexual morals. The two-parent family of a man and a woman is being criticised by extreme socialist type groups who wish to break down marriage between a man and a woman and our current Western value system. Sodomy was a criminal offense in Australia just a few decades ago but now is taught to our children in schools as ‘sex education’.
Transexuals are reading to our children in libraries, urging chemical castration and the sexual mutilation of our children. They adopt the pronouns used by ‘demons’ in the old and new testaments. It is illegal in many states to counsel those with gender dysphoria from seeking help and some places are making it legal for children to receive hormone therapy, genital mutilation and chemical castration without parental consent.
In Washington State USA the government has just passed legislation to allow medical transgender interventions on minors without parental consent.
The US armed forces have a four-star general, General ‘Rachel” Levine who identifies and dresses as a woman. The IMF insists on countries accepting the transgender ideology for loan approval pushing the transgender ideology around the globe. So called trans females (biological men) are placed into women’s prisons.
In his most recent presidential proclamation, Biden wrote that transgender Americans “shape our Nation’s soul”. The US was once a proud Christian country.
Tucker Carson explains the good/evil paradox better than most.

The United Nations (who are leading globalists) recently released a report which says in part ‘sexual conduct involving persons below the domestically prescribed age of consent may be consensual in fact, if not in law’. In other words, the UN wish to allow sex with minors making paedophilia legal.

Devil worship is celebrated on our TV at the Grammys and at the opening of the Commonwealth Games. That is, things once regarded as good (marriage, family, morals etc) are now considered evil and things once considered evil are now considered by many as good, have been legislated and we are told, not just to accept these things, but they are to be celebrated.
