Bible Question: Is "last days" the same as end times and does that definitely now or a time to come? |
Bible Answer: Maroon Kalos gave you some good definitions and cautions. And I think you can see how the Last Days and End Times can get interchanged. Yes we are in the Last days in reference to Joel and yes we are probably moving into the Last Days or End Times. I think 2 Tim. 3:1-6, is very indicative of the last days (in this case End Times) and I think we can all see how our world is changing to fit this definition. 2 Tim. 3:1-6 "But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. [2] For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, [3] unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, [4] treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, [5] holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these. If nothing else of this we can be sure each day brings us one day closer to the second coming of Jesus!!!!!!! EdB |
