Tell you what....we’re certainly seem to be in the birth pangs don’t we?
We’ve been in the birth pang phase for decades IMHO.
One day very soon this will happen:
1 Thessalonians 5:1-3
1Now, brothers and sisters, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, 2for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3While people are saying, Peace and safety, destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
