Here is a place to note the very strangest of events that occur on a large scale. Many of the events have been going on throughout history. But when we see the intensity and frequency increase, then we will know the season for the end times. There are many good references in the Bible about the human condition, our choices and eventualities.
Using the verses from Matthew 24 as a springboard into this topic, let's collect the oddest observations of large magnitude and see if we can determine our season.
Matthew
24:4 And Jesus answering said to them, See that no one mislead you.
24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, *I* am the Christ, and they shall mislead many.
24:6 But ye will hear of wars and rumours of wars. See that ye be not disturbed; for all [these things] must take place, but it is not yet the end.
24:7 For nation shall rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be famines and pestilences, and earthquakes in divers places.
24:8 But all these [are the] beginning of throes.
24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to tribulation, and shall kill you; and ye will be hated of all the nations for my name's sake.
24:10 And then will many be offended, and will deliver one another up, and hate one another;
24:11 and many false prophets shall arise and shall mislead many;
24:12 and because lawlessness shall prevail, the love of the most shall grow cold;
24:13 but he that has endured to the end, *he* shall be saved.
24:14 And these glad tidings of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole habitable earth, for a witness to all the nations, and then shall come the end.
