A Connecticut man named Joshua Murray has been arrested for pulling a gun on women who failed to thank him for holding a door open for them. According to Vlad;
A New Haven man is in police custody over a Saturday incident in which, authorities said, he brandished a gun after failing to get a “thank you” for holding a door open. Joshua Murray, 25, became “upset” after two women at a Family Dollar store didn’t express their gratitude, a witness told Hamden investigators.
Officers responding to a report that a man was brandishing a gun outside the store found an armed Murray nearby. He then “interfered with officers during his arrest,” according to the New Haven Register. Murray was eventually detained, and hit with a felony charge of carrying a pistol without a permit. He has also been given related misdemeanor charges of interfering with an officer, and two counts of second-degree breach of peace.
Joshua Murray was expecting a “thank you” from the women, and since they didn’t give a hoot about him for opening the door for them, he decided to teach them some lesson.

But is predicting Jesus’ second coming the same as claiming that we are living in the last days?

We are, in fact, living in the last days. Each day draws us closer to the second arrival of our King.
If we want to know whether or not we are living in the “end of times,” let’s become aware of the signs and warnings provided for us in Scripture. We can specifically take note of the condition that the world will be in at the time of His return, described in 2 Timothy 3:1-5:
