I believe we are very close to what Jesus called the end of the age, the end of time based on the writings of the 12th chapter of Daniel and other books of the Bible. Even without the Bible, it is obvious there is a creator God. Fortunately, we have the Bible, and God told us what to expect as we draw closer to the end of the age. The things taking place fit the description of conditions necessary for the return of Christ more so than anytime in history. Israel is once again reconstituted as a nation, the increase of evil, programmable digital money, men playing God in labs, and the WEF are on the short list. Modern man considers himself too smart and sophisticated to believe the Bible, but its prophecies down through the centuries continue to be accurate.

What prophecies in the Bible have come to pass?

Some of the information in these links overlap, but they all shed light on your question. For instance: the 1st link includes mathematical probability from a group of secular research scientists but is not an exhaustive list. https://reasons.org/explore/publications/articles/fulfilled-prophecy-evidence-for-the-reliability-of-the-bible

2nd link: https://prophecyalerts.com/10-bible-prophecies-that-have-all-come-to-pass/

In addition, the general conditions on earth at the time of the end are:

Wars and rumors of them (Matthew 24:6; Luke 21:9-10)

Famine and disease (Matthew 24:7; Luke 21:11)

Natural disasters (Matthew 24:7; Luke 21:11)

Persecution (Matthew 24:9-10; Luke 21:12, 16)

Strange phenomena in the sky (Matthew 24:29; Luke 21:25)

Although these are not the sole indicators of the end of the world, they have been popping up in the news and letting us know we’re getting closer.

People in the last days:

2 Timothy 3:1-5 tells us the characteristics of many of these people. They will be:

Lovers of themselves and pleasure (verses 1, 4)

Lovers of money (verse 1)

Boastful, haughty, and proud (verses 1-2)

Unholy and dishonoring to God (verse 1)

Disobedient to their parents and traitors (verses 1, 4)

Unthankful, unloving, unforgiving (verses 1-2)

Brutal, without self-control, headstrong, and slanderous (verses 3-4)

There are also many books that address an underlying question, is God real?

There are many more articles you could read, but this is enough. The point being: the time is late and there are no prophecies necessary to be fulfilled before Christ returns.

Mat_24:36  But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

There are no fence-sitters in eternity. To not decide is to reject the claims of Christ and seal your fate. The only question that must be settled before death - What must I do to be saved? https://www.gotquestions.org/how-can-I-be-saved.html
