Even though the end times have been studied and re-studied by a LOT of folks, there are STILL lesser-known facts about that time period IF one believes the Word of God.
THEREFORE, for those who believe they KNOW the end times (and, as well as those who KNOW they need serious work to catch up on the happenings of the end times), ETPR presents a few lesser-known points about the times in which we live.
1- The end of the end times are not only VERY CLEARLY pointed out, the EVENT which marks the end of the end times is also in God’s Word.
The end of the end times is VERY CLEARLY pointed out in God’s Word in Matthew 24:14.
“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.”
–Matthew 24:14
So, when does this event occur?
Revelation 14:6 supplies the somewhat-surprising answer.
“And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.”
–Revelation 14:6-7

2- God’s Word is VERY CLEAR: No one–not the angels in heaven, NO ONE knows the timing of God’s end times events–but God Himself.
A GREAT NUMBER of false teachers have declared various days as the day Jesus returns or the day of the LORD or the end.
The truth of God’s Word declares that NO ONE knows EXCEPT God Himself.
“Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.”
–Matthew 24:44
“But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.”
–Matthew 24:36
“But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.”
–Zechariah 14:7
3- The end times are very hard on the wicked, but they also are very difficult for the followers of Jesus.
This is the way God planned it out to be.
Apparently, all those entering the kingdom of heaven need tested one last time.
And that testing–though some do survive–probably will involve them giving up their lives as a testimony for Jesus Christ.
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.”
–Revelation 12:11

There are more, but we have promises to keep and miles to go before we sleep.
God willing, we will revisit this topic in the near future.
DOES the reader believe he knows a great deal about the end times?
It is not YET too late–although time is surely running out: there is still a LITTLE time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
—1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
