I don't claim to have any inside information or special insights, and tend to pessimism as I have watched social changes take such a downward turn the last 30, 40, or so years, but I thought at some point someone (as yet to be identified) will make war with the saints and overcome them. That does not mean to become passive though or that none will be left.
Your positive outlook is a good thing. True, disciples have not been made of some nations. The Muslims seem to be extremely resistant to conversion.
I try not to feed into end-time hype too much, but I do read the scriptures, don't claim to understand what much of them really mean other than a general outline for Christian living, morals, and the promise of a resurrection of the body when Christ returns.
Michael Reagan doesn't think much of what Pat Robertson said. I heard it just now.
We have to be better Christians than the Islamists are Islamists. They have a Allah-centric worldview. American Christians do not have a Christocentric worldview, though some progress has been made their in recent years.
To be candid, I have been reading a lot of postmillenialist literature lately.
