are these indeed the end times he talked about?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Jesus said THIS generation would be wicked? Wow...missed that in every Bible study I've ever participated in. But I'm not a revisionist evangelical who "reinterpreted" a couple of books of the Bible for self grandisement. Instead, I'm an Orthodox Christian who believes that Christ chose the apostles for a purpose and that they were to teach us what he taught them. To that end, the answer is clearly in the Bible and no raptures or tribulations are taught by the apostles. They're manmade teachings of the last 200 years.

If you doubt that, consider what the apostles themselves wrote:

Acts 1:6-8 So when they met together, they asked him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?"

He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
