I mean really into it like seriously we have the book of Daniel Ezekiel and revelations unfolding in real life before our eyes. Many have different views on the rapture but what most of us end time believers believe regardless our views on the rapture is that we are in the end times and the tribulation is very near.

I dont know or care who the antichrist is but I have been in deep study of the end times and found something called the bible code. Its a fascinating thing indeed and I would love to study it and see what I could find but as far as I know you have to be smart to do it.

Yes we are very close to the tribulation period, we are in the Matthew 24 signs that lead up to trib.
The bible code I have not gotten into yet, but I did watch the movie that was kind of based off of it called, " The Omega Code. "
The only thing I have heard which may not be true is that I heard that it even was found in the code when Jesus returns.
Now if this is true, I would be very leary of this bible code because the bible clearly says no man will no the time and day. But if it can be found in this code, and has been then a man would know which can not be.

I believe we are the group Jesus referred to; "This generation that shall pass until all these things are fulfilled" (Matthew 24;34). How long is "this generation"? Not a clue.. Some thought it was 40 years (1988), but not so. Now some are speculating a 70 year generation (2018), but quite a bit needs to happen for that to materialize within the next 3.5 to 4 years.

As for bible code, I personally don't buy into any of that malarkey. jmo

They said this a few times in history. They said it 1,000 years ago, during WW2 and now and I am sure other times too.

Blain, I love you, bro but I'm not convinced that the rapture is even a biblical thing and The Bible Code is interesting, if rather questionable by nature.

It requires a working knowledge of Hebrew and the Hebrew scriptures. It is not done in English. That pretty much leaves me out.

Every church era (Rev 2-3) has believed that they are living in the "last days". Even so, I do believe that prophecies are lining up to be fulfilled that have never been before.

I do not believe in secret codes (gnostic), the scripture reveals to us that the end of this age is at hand.

"Be dressed and ready and keep your lamps burning,..." Luke 12:35

1. Where does Scripture say to "us" that the end is at hand?
2. How do you define "at hand"?

Matthew 3:1-5(NKJV)
John the Baptist Prepares the Way

3 In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, 2 and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!”

This was about 2000 years ago and John was a Prophet. I'm just saying no one knows....

So, do you reckon we are just in the "last days" or the last days of the "last days"?

What is the cardinal sign(s) that the Second Coming of Christ is imminent or will take place at a certain time?

How could every generation think they were close to the end before 1948/1967? Israel had to become a nation first, now the signs that follow this are the signs we are to be watching for, the ones we are in the midst of now.
