Have there ever been such tumultuous days on Earth before?

People everywhere are watching in terror as each passing day grows progressively worse. Where does it all end? Does it all end? Will it all end? When? There is even more terror coming to this earth according to the Bible. The moon will turn to blood, the sun will forget to shine, tremendous earthquakes, famines, pestilences, and things on earth so bad that men will crawl into caves and pray for death to come. Yes, things are going to get worse. Then, the man of lawlessness appears who seems to have all the answers. Does he really?
