I’m convinced that we live in biblical times that are far different than any time since the first century AD. I say this because of the abundance of signs pointing to the soon arrival of the seven-year Tribulation with the Rapture occurring before it starts.

I remember a scene from Star Trek: The Next Generation television series where Data is in his room watching water come to a boil in a flask.
