The Covid pandemic claimed the lives of very many of the older faithful Christians. We are now just counting the losses. This is an interesting parallel to Noah’s time when God rested many of His people just before the deluge. Methuselah actually died one week before the great flood and many others too. “And all who followed the Lord died in those days, before they saw the evil which God declared to do upon earth.” Jas 5:5.
The new generation (millennials & gen Z) are very ignorant about prophecy. They do not believe in the 1948 prophecy which is why you find them supporting the illegitimate state of Palestine (instead of Israel). They have lost their faith, they don’t attend church anymore despite being raised in it. Unless something changes they will be easily led into captivity by the beast system and receive the mark of the beast.
