What is to say that we are not indeed living in the end times according to several religions. The argument you can make is that this happened through out history however the undeniable truth is that for the Christian Bible account to be rendered true it must happen in several places and most importantly Israel and Palestine. Many of these events have occurred so does this prove God Correct?
Havent people constantly claiming we are in endtimes? They predict when it is going to end...the date passes and they claim they miscalculated. They try to make this calculation according to what was recorded in the bible in relation to this.
There have been natural distasters for a very long time and do not indicate anything supernatural but instead are a part of how the earth operates. There are storms etc on other planets for as long as they have been discovered so I think that trying to use natural events like earthquakes, storms etc to claim the end of the world is coming makes no logical sense.
My understanding is that a lot of the predictions made in the bible about things that were to happen were logical predictions and had nothing miraculous about them.
I am not sure what you mean about god being correct though. If he is the designer and makes everything happen then wouldnt he be the one making every single prediction happen that he supposedly told the authors of the bible?
