Amen!
It is incredible when you begin to see how God's perfect plan fits together over thousands of years. Fulfillment of prophecy is one of the greatest tools we have when witnessing to help a person shake off the secular conditing they've been subjected to in their schools and the media.
I agree. I find it hard, especially these days, how the amillennialists explain all the miraculous recent and undeniable fulfillments that HAVE already happened exactly as they were prophesied to happen thousands of years ago. As the years go by we are even closer than when we first began to Christ's glorious appearing and catching up of the church.
I remember studying about the "one world" government, currency, religion and the "mark of the beast" that would be in place during the Tribulation as it was described in Daniel and Revelation back in the early 70's and just starting to hear about the EU and the Common Market. Today, that organization is in place already with their common currency (Euro) and moving towards ecumenicalism in the religious realm. Of course, this was decades AFTER Israel became a nation again. How much closer are we to those times now?! It is exciting and, as you said, a witnessing tool to the truth of God's word.
