To watch the world and those in it in the states that they are in (Try saying that a few times. But in all seriousness, watching the world's and the Church's states) is depressing. Parsha Lekh L'kha gives a scary idea:
Genesis 15:12-16
New King James Version (NKJV)
12 Now when the sun was going down,
a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and behold, horror and great darkness fell
upon him. 13 Then He said to Abram:
“Know certainly that your descendants will be strangers in a land that is
not theirs, and will serve them, and they will afflict them four hundred years.
14 And also the nation whom they serve
I will judge; afterward they shall come out with great possessions. 15 Now as for you, you shall go to your
fathers in peace; you shall be buried at a good old age. 16 But in the fourth generation they shall return here, for
the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete.”
Following up on that is an excerpt from Shemot:

Exodus 12:39-41
New King James Version (NKJV)
39 And they baked unleavened cakes
of the dough which they had brought out of Egypt; for it was not leavened,
because they were driven out of Egypt and could not wait, nor had they prepared
provisions for themselves.
40 Now the sojourn of the children of Israel who lived in Egypt[a]was four hundred and thirty years. 41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years—on that very same day—it came to pass that all the armies of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.
So there were only 30 years of freedom in Mitzrayim:

Exodus 1:5-10
New King James Version (NKJV)
5 All those who were
descendants[a]
of Jacob were seventy[b]
persons (for Joseph was in Egypt already). 6 And Joseph died, all his brothers, and all that
generation. 7 But the children of
Israel were fruitful and increased abundantly, multiplied and grew exceedingly
mighty; and the land was filled with them.
8 Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who did not know Joseph. 9 And he said to his people, “Look, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we; 10 come, let us deal shrewdly with them, lest they multiply, and it happen, in the event of war, that they also join our enemies and fight against us, and so go up out of the land.”
And there are roughly 10 of 30 weeks of years (300 years) before Hell breaks loose: 1517, the Reformation officially begins; 1815, the Congress of Vienna and the first one-world government. But also, 1517-1917 (The U.S. officially enters WWI.) or 1492-1892 (The Inquisition begins, then the Ellis Island Era begins.). WWI broke out on July 28, 1914, and then the Great Depression began on October 24 ("Black Thursday"), 1929.
In between those times, Prorto Zionism and Zionism begin, really kicking off in the 1850s (when Messianic Judaism is first officially recognized, according to Dr. David Stern and others) to the 1900s (And actually, Herzl enters the scene in or after 1892 re the Dreyfus Affair.).
No other generation before the 1850s-1950s, and especially the 1890s-1940s, saw the refounding-- the teshuvah v'aliyah-- of Israel. And since there were 400 years between Yeshua and the last of the Nevi'im before Yeshua; you'd think that 1517-1917 (or even 1518-1918, October 31, 1518 - November 11, 1918; if you want to count the First Anniversary of the Reformation to Armistice Day) or 1492-1892 would be painfully enough.
But Yehezkel 38 re Persia is getting ready to happen any day (It's happened with Put v'Kush.), and yet still no Rapture. Do you see why I get depressed in part now?
