End Times or Not?

I think a good question to answer would be, "Are we truly in the end times"? This is a valid question. Many people have been looking to scripture for the last several decades to figure out if the prophecies of Daniel or Revelation are coming to pass. I am not one to beat around the bush. Therefore, I will tell you we are in the end times and I will support it with scripture.

In the Book of Daniel, God gives Daniel several prophecies concerning the end of days and we will look at them now. Bear with me......

*****************************************************************************************************************
Daniel 12:4
4But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel 12:9
9And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
*****************************************************************************************************************

What exactly is God telling Daniel to do in Daniel 12:4? He is telling him to encrypt the words he is writing because the end time generation will be exceedingly smart.

In Daniel 12:9, God tells him to not worry about what he is writing because the words are encrypted/sealed. Only people living in the end times would come to understand the prophecy in which he was writing.

Now that I have established that God sealed the words of these prophecies and we now understand them then I say we live in the end times. This might seem a little confusing. However, prophecy is like a puzzle and we are starting to put the pieces together. A little at a time you will start to see the big picture and how close we are to the coming of our Lord, Jesus Christ!
