Think about how many disasters has happened over the last few years compared to earlier times! (terrorism, earthquakes, tsunamis and so much more) It is said in the Bible that that is how it will be towards the end... Also I heard some teacher say that the world will end on a Tuesday, I don't know where he had heard that... But I don't personally feel like anything's gonna happen...
But the disasters have been happening for years...years. And far worse disasters. We still havent broke the record I believe for the worst Hurricane (was it floyd?) and theres just still so much to go on.
Then again, even in the early first century they believed that they were "near the end" and look, 1900 years later.
But thats how its supposed to be. You arent supposed to know when, just when its getting close. But it could just now be getting close or it could have been getting close 1500 years ago, or 1000 years ago, or 500 years ago - point is no one knows. Which is how it should be.
