However, the bible predicts increasing lawlessness in the run-up to the end of the age, not obedience. Rather than a change in human hearts leading to widespread conversion, the bible says that "wickedness shall increase" and when the Lord comes "shall he find faith on the earth?" Implied answer - NO.

Apostasy (that is, a falling away from the faith on a large scale) is what the bible tells us will happen in the last days. (2 Thess 2:3) There is NO biblical warrant for a massive restoration, global revival, awakening or a renewal of spiritual purity - or any of the mighty moves of God that modern-day prophets speak of.

And the author loses me in the first few paragraphs.

Very sorry, but I automatically dismiss any author who uses pessimistic eschatology as a filter for current events. Why, one would think the Fall had more power over creation than did the Resurrection...
