A flood? You need to scripture up, buttercup. The last days speak of apostacy, not revival.

You think that these are the last days? When Elijah reappears, I'll pay serious attention (Matthew 17 and Sirach 44). When the Jews convert en masse, I'll pay serious attention (Romans 11), and events which change the earth's physical appearance, I'll pay very serious attention. What do you figure is the sign of the Son of Man that will appear in the heavens?

I think that we have some time yet left to go. This period ain't nuthin' compared to what I read the end times is going to be like.

"This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy..having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away". (2 Tim. 3:1,2,5).

Sounds like the end times started in the mid 1500s.

"for the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine! But after their own lust shall they heap to themselves teachers having itching ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth and shall be turned unto fables." (2 Tim. 4:3,4).

You can say that any time in the last 2000 years fits that bill, but I would point to the last 500 years. A tad longer than a generation, I'd say.

Feeling proud? Feeling boastful?

Not particularly. If I can reclaim one lost sheep for God, then I might give in to a small "YEAHHHHH". Have I done so this evening?

I couldn’t say for sure if you’ve saved a sheep this evening or not. but IF you rightly divided the scriptures,which I know you don’t, you would know that the Kingdom message won’t begin again until this present dispensation is removed. And this present dispensation warns of apostacy and perilous times to come before it is removed. So if you notice these things happening in spades, you can be assured this dispensation is about to be removed, and God will turn His attention back to the Kingdom.
