Although I believe we’re in the last days as well (doesn’t every generation? :) ) but I do believe also that the Trumpets are allegorical not literal.

Actually I should have elaborated just a bit on my feeling that it’s allegorical. Did you know that the muslim population represents roughly 1/3 of the world’s population? The one theme throughout the Trumpets is the reoccurring number of 1/3.

Also:
Mountain = kingdom or nation (Daniel & Jeremiah)
Trees & grass = People (Isaiah)
Seas = people and/or nation (Revelations)
Falling stars (or just stars) = Angels

When viewed this way it seems like we’re in those times right about now anyway.
