What is the End-times?

The “End-times” is a period prior to the return of Christ (The Messiah) when God deals with the world in judgment.  This period is known by several names including “The day of the Lord”[1], “The Tribulation”[2], “Time of Jacob’s Trouble”[3] and “Daniel’s 70^th Week” [4].

According to the books of Daniel and Revelation, the End times period of judgment, will last 7 years.   Entire chapters and sections of scripture are devoted to the End-times.  The most detailed account of this 7-year tribulation period is in the book of Revelation chapters 6 through 19.
