Can my true brothers and sisters post any fulfilled prophecies in the End Times?
Sure:

Jesus:
"Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven."
Mt 24:30

Josephus:
" there was a star resembling a sword, which stood over the city for a year. "

Jesus:
"...peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory."
Mt 24:30

Josephus:
"Certain prodigious and incredible phenomenon appeared: I suppose the account of it would seem to be a fable, were it not related by those that saw it, and were not the events that followed it of so considerable a nature as to deserve such signals; for, before sun-setting, chariots and troops of soldiers in their armor were seen running about among the clouds, and surrounding of cities."

---------------

Everything Jesus foretold did really happen in His generation.

I am quite suspicious and highly skeptical of all end times prophesies. Consequently I believe it to be intellectually, emotionally and spiritually unhealthy to live your life in constant expectation of the "end times". It is far better to live your life in such a way as to make this a better world, not just today but into the far distant future.

Those who expound Bible Prophecy, are part of the current generation which is mainly corrupt and ungodly. [as in the days of Noah]

They try to convince us that the cumulative research over the last century now yields a better understanding of the things of God. Conversely, our ancient Scriptures themselves do not say there will be an increase in understanding and discernment during the end times. The Bible prophets say that many will be deceived and will follow false teachings and only a few will understand. Daniel 12:10

Romans 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools. 1 Cor 3:18-20

Matthew 11:25 I thank You, Father for hiding the truth from the wise and revealing it to the simple.

At the time of Jesus, the people the Lord selected to convey His Words to the rest of human kind failed to understand God’s plan and were deceived to the degree that they arrange to brutally execute the Son of God who loved them.

He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Isaiah 53:3

Instead of telling us that mankind will progressively draw near to God because of our ability to assimilate and wisely apply knowledge to our circumstances, the Word of God tells us the Christians will repeat the ancient sin of Israel, and turn away from the Lord and embrace lies.

2 Timothy 4:3-4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

2 Thessalonians 2:11-10 For this cause, God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie….because they received not the love of the truth.

Theological error isn’t random. In this regard, the Greek word in our New Testament, rendered delusion, and it is the Lord Himself who delivers that delusion to those He deems appropriate.

This means it is a deluding error, which the Lord Himself sends, to those who want - no: who demand God to remove them, before any holy discipline; Hebrews 12:4-13 and they reject the Spirit of humbleness which would draw them to the truth.

This fulfils an Old Testament prophecy, which is in the context of the end times:

I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear: but they did evil before My eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. Isaiah 66:4

The reason the Lord places a delusion upon people, is because they practice insincere worship and maintain wrong doctrines, Isaiah 58:5 and have confused themselves by believing fiction and false teachings. Isaiah 29:9-12

But what if the "end times" ("time of the end" may be more appropriate) were already (mostly) fulfilled - and we can see it as the evidence of the sovereignty and trustworthiness of God?

Since the Church is not going to be here for the 70th week tribulation why do you think we, the end time Church, seek this info out ? Its not because fret or as you suggest invest emotional capital in these end times events at all, we do this because its our job to inform the world about all things Jesus Christ, hes their/OUR Savior is the top priority, but we will be gone, so we need to leave a RECORD of what is going to happen so the lost souls will have a road map for the coming 70th week tribulation, which has 7 years of troubles because Jesus promised us we would have continual troubles on this earth, and 3.5 years of Great Tribulation during God's Wrath.

The 1/3 of the Jews who Repent when Elijah returns needs to have these signposts we are leaving them, the Remnant {Gentile} Church will also need sign posts. The Jews need to understand they are to flee Judea to Petra, they will be conquered midway through the 70th week, all these are facts because the word says they are facts and God can't lie.

So we don't fret anything, some people are called to understand and reveal these end time prophesies, many more are just not called and lead people into confusion, or are of Satan an lie on purpose, and their effort is to confuse the masses to make them give up on God's truths, which is Satan's ways, You shall not surely die.

I think I would look at Ezekiel 37:21-22, which is a prophesy about God reuniting Israel, which had been divided into two nations of Judah (the southern kingdom) and Ephraim (the northern kingdom) following Solomon's reign.

Following WWII, there was a mass migration of Jews from the nations back to the land of Israel. And Israel became a nation again in 1948; one nation again, not divided north and south.

Ezekiel 37:21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:

22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:

___________________________________________________

Similarly, in Ezekiel 38, it indicates the re-establishment of the nation of Israel to the land, as a pre-requirement to the Gog/Magog attack event.


Ezekiel 38:8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.

And regarding the Gog/Magog nations, it appears that those are in place with some identified as Russia, Iran, Turkey, Libya, Ethiopia as far as I can tell.
___________________________________________________

In the parable of the fig tree in Matthew 24, Jerusalem is the fig tree, which in 1967, Jerusalem came back into the hands of the Jews. So that part is fulfilled

I have compiled around fifteen different categories of how the world can end in our lifetimes.

Signs of the End Times

Scripture teaches that the earth and material cosmos will exist forever (Ecc 1:4; Ps 78:69; 89:36-37; 104:5; 148:4-6; Eph 3:21) and that human generations are unending and perpetual (Ps 145:13; Dan 4:3,34; Dan 7:14,18,27; Lk 1:33)

I'm fully confident God is powerful enough to make good on those promises, regardless of what we think about climate change, population, wars, ect...

All are quite correct for our situation today, as we spiral downward and are once again; as in the days of Noah.
But you miss what it is that the Lord will use to correct civilization this time. It is told to us in over 70 prophesies that He will send fire to change the world. Not the 'end of the world', but the end of this civilization as we know it.
It will be the sudden destruction; as Paul says in 1 Thessalonians 5:3, and we Christians should know all about it, be not in the dark. verses 4-11

What we see now is the result of overpopulation, excessive pressure on our finite resources. Forest clearance; causing lower rainfall.
Fires lit deliberately and maliciously, more people affected, as they choose to live in unsuitable locations.

But what the prophesies tell us will happen, is fire sent by the Lord, that will destroy His enemies. Isaiah 66:15-17, Zephaniah 1:14-18, 2 Peter 3:7
He will send this terrible disaster at the moment of an attack with nuke missiles aimed at Israel. Psalms 7:12-16, Jeremiah 49:35-37, Hebrews 10:27
