There is definitely a concerted effort by the elite to make it seem like the biblical "end times" are here. Only thing is, there is no biblical end times except in the minds of the brainwashed Christians.

How do you explain Zechariah - chapters 12 through 14, Revelation - chapters 20 - 22, and 2 Peter - chapter 3?

What is the last prophecy event that came true?
Jesus the Christ was prophesied by the lives of the various people in the Bible:
Abraham
Mostly everyone knows the story of Abram and Isaac. Abram, whose name means 'father', was willing to sacrifice his son because it was part of Divine Will. This must have seemed crazy at the time, but Abram obliged because of his faith. What Abraham may or may not have realized is that he was prophesying exactly what God the Father would do with his firstborn son to act as a sacrificial buffer for the sins of all humankind.
Jesus claimed that he knew Abraham, and Abraham knew Him, in John 8:51-58.
Jacob
Son of who inherits the blessing despite his older brother being born first. Jesus, who is also born in posterity, is given the blessing over the old cursed world that lives according to Esau. Jacob is also the parent of who would become the 12 tribes of Israel, just as Jesus had 12 disciples.
Melchizedek
King of Salem (likely Jerusalem), His name means "The King of Righteousness", and he blessed Abraham with a meal of bread and wine. Years later Jesus would bless the entirety of Jerusalem in a ritual that is still practiced to this day which involves bread and wine being transmuted into Divine Substance. In the same way that Melchizedek fed Abraham, Jesus feeds the Children of Abraham.
Moses
The Messiah was most definitely coming through Moses to varying degrees throughout his life. Moses was born during the decree to kill all Jewish newborns, yet he was saved and was raised in Egypt. Same with Jesus's life, He was born during an infanticide and took refuge in Egypt. Moses would eventually grow up to liberate the people from the slavery of Egypt, just like Jesus's overarching liberation from the Egyptian way. Egypt means "Shut-in". Moses name means "to be drawn out of water", which is exactly what John the Baptist would be doing to precede the Christ.
Moses also spent 40 days and nights on a mountain fasting for God before receiving the Holy Law. Similarly, Jesus spent 40 days and nights in the wilderness fasting for God before receiving the Holy Law that would initiate his ministry.
Moses’ Passover ritual exactly resembled Christ’s sacrifice on the cross. Moses splattered the blood of the lamb on the wooden cross beams in Egypt so that the children of God would avoid the due repercussion for sin, and therefore be liberated from slavery.
Joshua
Moses never entered the promised land, but instead preceded Joshua (Yeshua) who would be the one to lead them into the promised land. Similarly, John the Baptist who was drawing people out of water was preparing for Jesus (Yeshua) to lead them to the promised land. Joshua would go on to defeat unbelievably powerful foes, just as Jesus conquered Satan in this world. Both Jesus and Joshua are translated to Hebrew as “Yeshua”. As you can see these overarching themes regarding historical events are actually pre-conceiving the life of the Messiah.
Jonah
Jonah spent 3 days and nights in a whale's belly, just like Jesus spent 3 days and night in the belly of the earth. Both would lead to people changing their mind towards a better truth.
Enoch
Ascended to heaven because he followed God diligently, so too did Jesus ascend to heaven because he did God’s will.
David
David was anointed ("Christened") by the King for defeating Goliath. Jesus was anointed as Christ at Golgotha, which means "The place of the skull"... this was a reference to the fact that Goliath the Gath's skull was in the location where he was crucified. So both David and Jesus were anointed in events that are tethered through time. David was persecuted and sentenced to death by the leaders of Israel at the time (Saul), just as Jesus was persecuted and sentenced to death by the leaders of Israel during His time. David wrote Psalms about his meditations of God, and Jesus quotes Psalm 22 while on the cross which goes as follows:
"My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
Why are you so far from saving me,
so far from my cries of anguish?
My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,
by night, but I find no rest.
Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;
you are the one Israel praises.
In you our ancestors put their trust;
they trusted and you delivered them.
To you they cried out and were saved;
in you they trusted and were not put to shame.
But I am a worm and not a man,
scorned by everyone, despised by the people.
All who see me mock me;
they hurl insults, shaking their heads.
“He trusts in the Lord,” they say,
“let the Lord rescue him.
Let him deliver him,
since he delights in him.”
Yet you brought me out of the womb;
you made me trust in you, even at my mother’s breast.
From birth I was cast on you;
from my mother’s womb you have been my God.
Do not be far from me,
for trouble is near
and there is no one to help.
Many bulls surround me;
strong bulls of Bashan encircle me.
Roaring lions that tear their prey
open their mouths wide against me.
I am poured out like water,
and all my bones are out of joint.
My heart has turned to wax;
it has melted within me.
My mouth is dried up like a potsherd,
and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth;
you lay me in the dust of death.
Dogs surround me,
a pack of villains encircles me;
they pierce my hands and my feet.
All my bones are on display;
people stare and gloat over me.
They divide my clothes among them
and cast lots for my garment."
(Psalm 22)
David’s precise prediction of Jesus's crucifixion is mind-boggling. It is because he was integrated with the Messianic power before It came into the world in uninhibited human form. Jesus's lineage was also shown to be traced back to the line of David, which was supposed to be the Messiah’s lineage.

In Ecclesiastes it says One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever.

Jesus said he would return before the 12 disciples could go to all the cities of Israel but Christians says Jesus is coming soon.
Jesus said There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom. Christianity is still waiting for the kingdom to come.
Almost everything Christianity believes is the exact opposite of what the Bible teaches.
I don’t say that with pride, I say it with sadness. I wish Christians would stop buying into the lies and start believing their bibles.

the elites HATE God, Christianity and its values. the elites are mocking prophecy talk.
if you want to see it, you'll see it. if you want to ignore it, you will.
imho the masses are brainwashed and it is the Christians who are thinking outside the box.

Egypt’s second president said that the Jews left black but came back white.
Did the black people return to Israel yet?
