Answer
HUH !! God himself doesnt know ? Read Mark 13 again it says the son, and it is refering to the son of perdition and the angels of darkness. Not the Son of God who is God and the angels of light. It is Blasfamous to actually believe that Jesus doesnt know the beginning from the end. God has never destroyed anything without warning them first. and God is the same today yesterday and forever.Beloved dont you know that a day is as a 1000 years and a 1000 years is as a day. God warned noah to get into the ark exactly 7days before the flood and he warned us to get into Jesus exactly 7000 years from that moment.
Didnt isreal become a nation on may 14 1948 and a generation is 40 years and daniel spoke of the 23 years. God warned noah to get into the ark on may14 4990 bc and the world will end on may 21 just as it did before in the year 2011 exactly 7000 years later.
It is my considered opinion that we are in the latter days. The Lord himself does not know when He will return, only His Father in heaven. When the world is ripe in iniquity we will need to be watchful for the great signs which will be shown in heaven, the moon will be turned to blood and the stars will fall from heaven.
Let us look around ourselves, the world is full of iniquity, there are wars and rumors of wars, men love themselves and not God and seek after the riches of this world. Surely the day is nigh at hand.
Christ's Return
No person knows. We can guess, but that would just be a guess. We can't know for sure until it's happening. Many people in the past have tried to guess, but since we're still here, they were wrong. The Bible says it will happen soon, but it does not give an exact day.Matthew 24:36 (NIV)
No one knows about the day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

May 21 2011
For every passage in the Bible concerning time it says that Jesus will return, It states He will return as a thief in the night but few continue to read where it states that "but unto to you the children of light you will not be left unaware you will know the times and the seasons 1 thes 5, Rev 3-3.
The entire existence of this planet from creation to destruction is 13023 years. 23 years is given to Satan to rule in the churches and according to www.familyradio.com he has since may 21 1988.. 1988 plus 23 = 2011 and may 21 is a feast day.
6023 years from Creation to Flood or may 21-4990 bc according to our Gregorial callender.
plus 7000 to Rapture. = 13023 years May 21 2011 plus 5 months of darkness before the Judgment Day oct 21 2011 which not so ironically is 153 days.
Did you know that Jesus healed 153 people while here on Earth, Did you know that when Jesus told them to fish from the right side of the boat they caught 153 fish Why did they count the Fish??? these are our clues to figure out.
We need to spend more time in the word and these answers will be revealed. the fish represent the elect the boat represents the church and its inability to save anyone as it could not pull in the fish and the shore just outside of the sea is heaven. the sea represents the grave.the net represents the word of God.

Answer
Although the Bible has a good deal to say about this topic it is important to realize a number of things.
Firstly, just listing off a whole lot of verses is only a start as they need to be read in context to properly be understood. Sometimes it is the intention of some to demonstrate an unresolvable contradiction in what the Bible says about the end. When the Bible is read in context and rightly understood this is not at all the case.
Secondly it is clear that although we cannot know the exact day or hour of Jesus' return, we can know the signs of His coming closer. We can see some of the specific types of events mentioned in the scripture being fulfilled. One of these is the return of Israel to their promised land, after the terrible events of WW2.
Thirdly, many of the signs which are listed are of a general nature and often they can be seen only through having a deeper understanding of the Bible and of its teaching as a whole. An example of this is the increase in apostasy foretold towards the end. One would need to know what apostasy is to understand the times in which we now live. Jesus said 'when the son of man cometh will He find faith on the earth?'
Such a great falling away gains momentum particularly when people who claim themselves to be Christians no longer believe what Christians have always believed and worse are still allowed, contrary to the clear word of God, to remain both in the church and worse, to be in positions of authority, particularly to teach others. This is one sure sign of decay and of the coming closer of Jesus' return.
Answer
Matthew 24:14 when the gospel of the kingdom is preached in all the world for a witness to all nations. I believe that most that are alive today will see the second coming, probably between now and the end of 2012. I have not heard anyone else say it, I just see the world moving toward what the Bible says will be in the last days, as in the days of Noah.
We have the ability now to spread the gospel throughout the world via the internet to all nations as referenced as the main sign given by Jesus above. There are many other things prophsied (told us by the Spirit of God) in the Bible, but these two are plenty for me to know that it is time to prepare the bride of Christ for His return.

Consider Isaiah's words in 65:20. It speaks of prolonged life as medical advancement will permit. Isaiah isn't speaking of antediluvian times for obvious reasons in God's timing.

"...There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken.
AT THAT TIME they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near." (Luke 21:25-28 NIV)
That's Luke's chronology of what to look for. See how it compares with the "sixth seal" in Revelation 6:
"I watched as He opened the sixth seal.
There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red, and the stars in the sky fell to earth, as late figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong wind.
The sky receded like a scroll, rolling up, and every mountain and island was moved from its place. Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and every slave and every free man hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains.
They called to the mountains and the rocks, 'Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!" (Rev.6:12-16 NIV)
These "heavenly signs" of the sixth seal of Revelation, which matches Luke's description above, precede the seventh and last seal, which represents the "DAY OF THE LORD" and the return of Jesus Christ.
But we can't look for these "heavenly signs" until AFTER THE GREAT TRIBULATION that John describes in the FIFTH SEAL of Revelation 6.
Jesus describes the Great Tribulation in Matthew 24:9-29. And in verse 29 He says:
"'Immediately after the distress of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and all the heavenly bodies will be shaken.' AT THAT TIME THE SIGN OF THE SON OF MAN WILL APPEAR IN THE SKY, and all the nations will mourn..." (verses 29-30 NIV).
May 21 2011. is the date he will return.
The Bible forbids any further prophecy. The books are sealed. The prophets ended with John the Baptist. (Deuteronomy, John, Revelation among others). So how can anyone say May 21, 2011 is the day Jesus returns when only God is privy to that knowledge?
