Are We Living In The “End Times”?
Day 9
B. Hodge, M.Sc., B.Sc., PEI
In
the book of Daniel, there are passages discussing the time of the end (e.g.,
Daniel 8:17-26; 12:4-9). This is but a precursor of the Bible passages that
discuss the end times.
In
the New Testament, the Bible pinpoints the beginning of the end times. The "last days" began just under 2,000 years ago (Acts 2:17 confirming the instigation of
the end times from the prophet Joel in Joel 2:28-32), Hebrews 1:2 [“last days”], and James 5:3
[“last days”]).
Another
passage alluding to the end times is 2 Timothy 3:1-4, where Timothy is told to
avoid those people infiltrating in these “last days” whose heart is not focused
on Christ and the fruits of the Spirit. There
will be more on the day of judgment/last day in Days 16 and 18.
