I look for several things to know whether or not we could be in the end times.
1. The Jews returning to Israel in my understanding of scripture defines the terminal generation, ie the end times.
2. However, we cannot have the tribulation unless the Jews can rebuild the temple within a year or two. It takes a certified Red Heifer to do that and they must be three years old before being sacrificed. In all of human history the Jews have only had 10 certified Red heifers. However, they do have one now that will be ready to sacrifice this coming Passover.
3. There must be a covenant that is confirmed for seven years with the many at the start of the seven year tribulation. Most eschatologists believe the seven year tribulation will begin with the Feast of trumpets. Which is in September when the UN opens each year. in 2015 Agenda 2030 was a covenant that was made and it will be confirmed this September over the Feast of Trumpets for seven years. They are planning on strengthening the covenant by controlling what people can buy or sell with a digital currency.
4. Along these lines they would need the technology to implement the mark of the beast which is done shortly after the seven year tribulation begins. To do that you would need a super powerful computer, say a quantum computer, you would need to blanket the earth with satellites, say the Starlink system, and you would need to have a digital currency, say the CBDC, and you would need to have the technology to inject this under the skin, say RFID. Therefore I see all these things as a sign that we are in the end times.
5. The Beast is another thing I would expect to see rising. People likened it to TV, but the image is interactive, it can speak. So I think AI and DeepFake is much more similar to what the Bible refers to. However, that is simply the propaganda arm of the beast, it also has an army that people say no one can fight against. That to me sounds like neuralink connecting soldiers to a central server via AI. Another sign that we are in the end days.
Let's consider the odds of these prophecies being fulfilled using Bayesian analysis.
1. Israel returning as a nation after 70AD and being scattered for almost 2,000 years. Seems almost impossible. But the prophecy is even more incredible, it says it will be done in a single day and sure enough it was done by a UN vote in a single day. How could anyone more than 2,000 years ago predicted that, but wait, it is even more incredible. Jesus referred to them as the Fig tree generation! Israel's national tree is an olive tree. The Fig tree refers to Adam and Eve sinning in the garden and covering themselves with fig leaves. The UN wanted to make up for the holocaust by giving the Jews Israel. But wait, it gets even more incredible than that, Ezekiel is asked if these dry bones can live again? After WW2 we saw pictures of people walking out of the concentration camps looking like skeletons coming back to life and coming together to form this nation. But wait, there is more. Jesus said to learn the parable of the fig tree and all the trees. Israel was not the only nation to be formed at this time, there were four or five nations formed in the middle east, all with national trees. I would say the odds of this prophecy are 1,000,000,000 to 1.
2. If Israel has had over 2,000 years of history from Moses to the present and during that time they have only had 10 certified Red Heifers I would put the odds of having one at 200:1
3. This prophecy about confirming or strengthening a covenant for seven years is quite remarkable. First of all the idea of having to confirm it with the many was incredible, this was during a time when the Babylonian empire was ruled by one man. The idea of the UN was completely foreign and in more than 4,000 years of human history we have only had a functioning UN for less than 80 years. Therefore I will give the odds on this 50:1. But there is more, he didn't say "makes a covenant for 7 years" but confirms it. I suspect that confirming a covenant that is already made is rare. But being specific about it being confirmed for 7 years is extremely rare. For example, the British leased Hong Kong from China for a 100 years. When the time was coming for the lease to be up I can imagine the Chinese wanting the British to confirm that they would hand it over. However that would not be confirming it "with the many" nor do I think they "confirmed it for seven years". So again, I will say odds are 10:1. But then this word confirms actually can be translated "strengthens". So even though you might want assurances that a covenant will be kept, strengthening the covenant is probably less common, so let's say 2:1. This means the odds on this prophecy would be 50x10X2 = 1,000:1
4. If we look at the technology required to implement the mark of the beast it would be the first time in 6,000 years that humans have had all the technology required to do this. Therefore I'd say the odds on this is 1,000:1.
5. Likewise with AI, deep fakes, and neuralink. Again, I'd say the odds are 1,000:1
To calculate the odds of all five being fulfilled at the same time you simply multiply these numbers together:
1,000,000,000 x 200 x 1,000 x 1,000 x 1,000 = 200,000,000,000,000,000,000 : 1
Therefore the odds that the tribulation is upon us is
200,000,000,000,000,000,000 : 1
or 200 quintillion to 1. (The Milky Way Galaxy is a quintillion meters wide, so this is like the width of 200 Milky way galaxies compared to 1 meter if 1 meter represents the size of a human brain).
