What Bible Says About The End of Times

Eschatology is the part of Theology that studies the final events on the world. Christian's eschatology or apocalypticism view the end of time as the consummation of perfection on God's creation of the world. The prophecies of the end of times is addressed in the Bible at the Old Testament's Book of Daniel and New Testament's Book of Revelation.
Some philosophers think that an accelerating rate of scientific progress could cause a technological singularity that could dramatically change the course of human history.

The Bible at Matthew 24:6-7 says(King James Version from www.biblegateway.com):
"6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places."

So, guessing the end of times is a topic that always fascinates human race. But the Bible is crystal clear when it says in Matthew 24:36 (KJV from www.biblegateway.com)
"36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only."

As you can notice, it is not written "... but my Father and the Mayans only."...
