Biblical Reasons the End of Days are Upon Us

Reason #1

In Daniel 12:4 it says, “Even to the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” I believe that knowledge has definitely increased dramatically over the years. Throughout history, knowledge has been slowly increasing over time. But as you can tell today technology has increased at such a quick rate over a short period of time. This tells me that “knowledge shall be increased.” has been attained.

Education in Daniel’s time was not received by many people.

Putting technology to the side, we have seen that the knowledge of the Bible has become more understandable. People have found out more discoveries of the what the Bible is trying to tell us. And of course, the people who have found out these discoveries have been able to preach it to others who have not heard of God and given them the knowledge. When we go on mission trips, we are spreading the knowledge to more and more people who don’t know about God. And as the time goes on, more and more people become missionaries and more people come to Christ. Tons of Bible prophecies are being met today also.

Reason #2

Also in Daniel 12:4, is says that many will travel. Today, traveling has become such an easy thing to do. Most everyone has cars to get to different places. We have trains, subways, planes and boats to get to hard places that might not be reached with cars. It is so easy to be able to get to where ever you want. In Daniels time, the only transportation was horses. This is also another sign that the end times are near.

Reason #3

If we read Daniel 2:31-45 very carefully, we discover that King Nebuchadnezzar dream of the image of the man is a symbol of the earths history. You have the head of Gold (Babylon), the breast o...

...hich God isn’t. In Daniel 9:27, it says that the antichrist will confirm a covenant for 7 years. In Daniel 7:8, it says that he will rise among 10 kings. In Daniel 8:25, it says that he will be very powerful and peaceful, but will use the peace to destroy many and cause craft to prosper. And in Daniel 8:23 it says that he will have fierce countenance and understand puzzling things.

Reason # 7

In Daniel 12: 8-9, it tells us how Daniel is complaining to God about not being able to understand the prophecies that have been given and trusted upon him. But God told Daniel not to worry and to just write the prophecies down because they have been sealed until the second coming.

So when reading this verse, we realize that God is telling Daniel that it is ok to not understand the prophecies because they will not be understood until the times comes for them to be fulfilled.
