About the Last Days of a Millenium
The phrase "in the last days" dosn't necessarily means the last days of the universe. As I wright this at the end of 1999, I let "the last days" means "the last days of a millenium".
And it shall be in the last days, God says,
that I will pour forth of my Spirit on all people,
and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy...
The Acts of the Apostles 2:17
Remark: prophesy = preach
Notice that the Spirit is mentioned here ("Ande" in Swedish)
