Well, I’m HOPING that there will be a revival just before the end. I’m praying for it. Nothing would thrill me more than to see LOTS of people come to Christ.

But there is also Scripture that indicates that there will be a falling away and apostasy before the end.

What will happen, will happen.

One doesn't necessarily negate the other.I think pretty much everything you listed will happen.Great apostacy,falling away and lots of people coming to Christ.

This started long ago even to this day many do not know they too are the children of Israel, that is how clueless many are, Judah is only one portion....

All Jew are of Israel, but not all of Israel is Jewish.

Amos 8

11 ¶Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord:

12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it.

13 In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.

14 They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, Thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beer-sheba liveth; even they shall fall, and never rise up again.

The apostacy in America has already been happening, while a new awakening revival has been going on in three places I can name; Wales, Africa, Toronto. And there will be the 144,000 pure of the 12 tribes in the last days to be brought into the Kingdom. (REV 14)

That’s not to say the falling away from the church won’t continue in other places in the world. (these are believers because you can’t fall away if you haven’t been there). So even while some are being brought into the knowledge of Christ through revivals, many who were believers are deceived, discouraged, and leave for a variety of reasons.

I agree with you and pray there will be a revival of those souls the Saints have prayed for, such as their children, etc. The Bible says ‘the promise is not just to us but as many as are afar off” (our offspring).

Blessings to you and yours.
