The way that the world situation (as far as global warming, pestilence, etc.) is going...I truly doubt that we have much longer in this world. I agree with others who are feeling that we are here on borrowed time. He's just waiting for the last of His people to get ready before the worst hits. And we can see the worst on the horizon. Although He says that no one knows the day or hour of His return...we will know that it is close. We are not in darkness, as others.
He says in His Word that He has shortened the days...because if He hadn't, no flesh would survive. I believe that this includes animal flesh...as we are seeing the demise of so many species of animals and fish presently. The scientists are pretty much agreeing now that the advancement of global warming is speeding up faster than they thought it would. This, most likely, will cause a domino effect with our climate, which will speed it up even more. We are already seeing a change in weather patterns, which are abnormal.
I believe that I am in the generation that will see His coming. The generation of Israel becoming a nation again (as in Ezekiel's valley of the dry bones). I believe that He will come in my lifetime. The scriptures confirm this...as in Daniel, on how knowledge will increase in the last days. We have seen such changes in the past century...the automobile, television, telephone, cell phone, computer, air travel, and on and on. These things were just invented in the past 100+ years, in comparison to thousands of years in which the world has been in existence and never had these things.
I just praise God that we will not be here for the worst of it...and praise His Name, our families won't either, if they truly know Him.
Until that day...we "work"...for the night cometh when no man shall be able to.
If you do not know Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior, I invite you to ask Him into your heart. If you have done this, then you will escape the horrors to come. If you would like to read more about the time that is coming, read the book of Revelation in His Holy Bible.
Until He comes....
