SYNOPSIS Recent events have led many to believe that the end time of the world has arrived or is soon to arrive as anticipated in the Bible's Book of Revelation. These possibilities may or may not be the case, but the resultant anxieties are certainly real. That being so, it is appropriate to examine them in a rational manner to assess what realities truly exist and to prepare for them if need be. Such is the character of the study included herein which relies for the most part on basic logic and facts as identified by historical records and recent developments. Although written in the spirit of ecumenism, it includes consideration of unique prophecies on this matter which are faith dependent and not usually found in the general literature. However, they have survived the test of time and are therefore worthy of consideration, particularly since they provide additional perspective into the realities of the end time. Conclusions reached may or may not be accepted by all, but should nevertheless be considered by all, particularly those searching for additional perspective into these realities. Inclusion of these considerations then serves well to provide a good assessment of the subject of the end time and related expectations. If those objectives interest you, then so will this study.
