The first thousand+ (years) years roughly ended with the Flood of Noah so there was Judgement.
After that within a couple Generations we had another Judgement with the Tower of Babel and within a Generation after that the Judgement of Sodom.

Then God spent roughly 2 Generations bringing His people to Egypt who spent 5 Generations before being led to the Wilderness waiting for the next Generation to enter into the Promised Land.

What's interesting is now we have roughly a 2,000 year period before Christ and we are at another 2,000 year period after Christ.

It's all in how we look at the past in order to define it.

But here we are at the cusp of the Ezekiel War that will lead to a 7 year Peace Treaty and the Second Coming of Yeshua. And the one thing that announced this time point was the re-established Nation of Israel. Now we are at the end of the One Generation Daniel alluded to. So even though we cannot say it will be this specific day. We can say the Bible makes this claim so we actually are not as clueless as some try to imply.

Alot of people believe this, but I'm afraid they will be disappointed. And while we can know much about the future from the Bible, this is only true when we understand what it is teaching. History has a long, long time to go.

And still there's only a few prophecies left to fulfill for certain things to happen. And seeing how much of the "end times/last days" prophecies are left and going by the rate of prophecies being fulfilled since Israel was re-established shows a trend that the final prophecies aren't that far away as some would hope.

That's where we differ. You believe end times refers to the end of time. I believe it mostly refers to the end of the old covenant.

God brought forth a plan from creation involving 7000 years and those who say time is meaningless to the Lord are really foolish and lack so little understanding of scriptures.

My thought is that time is of great importance to the Lord.

Precious friend, Depends on The Truth of God's Great GRACE Departure! being True or not.
If it is not true, then we will be here and see the final 'prophecies' on the earth.

However, since we are [ Under Grace ] to "live By faith not by [ 'seeing prophecies'? ] sight"
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (2 Corinthians 5:7 AV), then:​

God's Great GRACE Departure! Teaches God's Body Of Christ:​

1) Paul himself 'expected' our rapture "in his OWN" day [ "we which are alive"
-- 1 Thessalonians 4:17 AV ], therefore:​

2) The Departure of The Body Of Christ, to belong "where we have [ Heavenly ] citizenship",
is Imminent ( could "happen At ANY moment" = are we all prepared? - - Philippians 3:20;​
+ - - I have decided to follow Jesus? - - + - - 1 Corinthians 3:8-15 AV), meaning:​
​
3) There are no other "prophecies" [ from God's Other 'Prophetic' Program ] to be fulfilled
first, before we leave, and further meaning:​
​
4) God "Removes all of His ambassadors (2 Corinthians 5:20 AV)" from the earth,
Before [ According to Prophecy ]: "Declaring War and Judgment" On an UNgodly world,​
Correct?​

Amen.

And, as always, Please Be Very Richly Encouraged And Edified In
In The Lord Jesus Christ, And In His Word Of Truth, Rightly
Divided!:

"Time is everything"? Yes, to us, The Body Of Christ, the "Time Of God's Grace", and "It's Ending" = everything!

That would be a correct understanding but I prefer to say I am working off the timelines after Israel was re-established by God.

I can agree with this area of thinking but prophecy has to be fulfilled and God has a timeline already established before the Creation and foundation of the world came into being.

Given Joshua 21:43, why do you believe any promise still exists for Israel and the land?
