Are we living in the "last days"?

Who told you that? These stupid people are just following some hoax. There have been many last days including 2012.

People have been mean since the beginning of times, now we know more because we are connected all the day, in my opinion nothing really changed from the past. If you have studied history, you surely know that powerful have always killed and tortured and robbed the others.

people have been claiming the end is nigh for millenia - it is just scare-mongering

We have thought this too. The world gets a little worse daily.

Not even close. I see the news then I look around me and what do I see? I see the exact opposite. People being polite, kind, helpful and friendly. After tooting the 'last days' horn for several hundred decades I would think people would be tired of waiting for disaster and eager to get on with living.

We have to be the watchmen on the wall. But we can't live everyday in dreadful fear. The end of the world would come in 2000 many said and here it is 2018!!!

Those of us who study the Bible carefully can see prophecies being fulfilled in front of our eyes. According to Daniel chapter 2 we live during the 7th worldpower and next Kingdom will be the one when Christ will rule over the earth and bring peace and health to all mankind Jesus was preaching these good news of the Kingdom.. see Daniel 2:44 There is an online Bible in jw.org

Many of the signs that Jesus talked about are happening, more right now than any other time in History... "You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come." "There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains." I want to remind you that in the last days there will come scoffers who will do every wrong they can think of, and laugh at the truth. This will be their line of argument: ‘So Jesus promised to come back, did He? Then where is He? He'll never come! Why, as far back as anyone can remember everything has remained exactly as it was since the first day of creation.'" There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God—having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them." and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.' Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.' Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.' And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. I am also looking at what is happening tommorow....Jan 15th...Is it all nations coming against Jersualem. Did not God say he would go after anyone that divided Jersualem.... Did the usa bring about what is happening in paris tommorow, will they try to divided Jersualem, and will God divide the USA, and any other country involved......???????????

I think that we are approaching the last days. According to scientists, this world won´t go beyond 2070 due to global warming and pollution. Also because of technological advances and the depletion of natural resources

Awake even the manicians are starting fights as in the picture above. The message went out. An end is coming. A beginning in store. The only question is how will a new beginning occur. Goodness.

Things will always reflect what we focus on. We can't see something different than what we consistently focus on. I'm not denying that things seem to be getting worse though.

We're getting there, but we're not there yet. Look at Matthew 24, particularly verse 6. Jesus describes the world much as we see it today, but the end isn't yet. Verse 8 says it's the beginning of sorrows.

All of this, only God knows of course, but the way things are going, mankind does seem to be rushing towards an unhappy ending right now. 1 Corinthians chapter 7, verse 29-31 New Revised Standard Version of the Christian Bible. "I mean, brothers and sisters, the appointed time has grown short; from now on, let even those who have wives be as though they had none, and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they had no possessions, and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For the present form of this world is passing away." I wonder what Saint Paul meant here, given that another 2000 years have passed by now. Saint Paul, I would guess, simply meant that the disciples/apostles of the Lord would all soon die (in his time), and so immediate direct personal contact with Jesus, and with those who knew him, while he lived on the Earth here, would cease forever in this way, until he comes again.
