I can see that you do not place any importance to the event that transpired in AD70. Why? This was surely an event that marked at the very least the "end of this age".
According to Scripture, we are still in this evil age until sin, death, corruption and Satan are destroyed. Let us see what the Bible attributes to the oft-mentioned time-period “this age” (or
aion). Galatians 1:4 tells us that Christ
“gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world (or
aion or age),
according to the will of God and our Father.”
According to this passage, what is “this age” particularly known for? What sets it apart from the age to come?
It is “evil”! The Greek word for evil is
poneros! The meaning of this word is: “hurtful in effect or influence.” The word indicates ‘degeneracy from original virtue’. We do not need to look too far to realize that it is talking about our current age. In fact, evil has been with us since the fall, and will be with us to the second coming. This gives us immediate insight into the starting and finishing point of “this age.”
This age is constantly depicted throughout Scripture as being plagued by the existence of sin, decay and death. It is never portrayed as a pleasant, pristine or lasting state. In fact, Galatians 1:4 describes this age as “this present evil age;” one that Christ came to “deliver” us from through His death. Evil marks the period of time in-between the fall and the second coming of Christ. We can therefore confidently conclude that “this age” that we are looking at is still with us.
Paul the apostle tells us in Ephesians 5:16 that we should be:
“redeeming the time, because the days are evil.”
This is a present ongoing reality on planet earth.
Ephesians 6:13 expressly says,
“take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”
God simply promises the Ephesians His divine power and protection in the midst of evil, something that is in keeping with His character throughout the Word of God.
That is why Scripture exhorts us in Romans 12:2:
“be not conformed to this world (or aion or age): but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind.”
This is a spiritual directive that is applicable to man this side of eternity, or, right up until the day Christ returns. Believers are admonished not
not be conformed to this world because it is a wicked debased world that is corrupted by sinful man. Anyone that would relate this state to any other time than “this present evil age” is clearly in error.
Rather than this world becoming more enlightened and more liberated it is shown to becomes eviler and more bound. 2 Timothy 3:13 tells us:
“evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.” This has not let up since the beginning.
Sin arose in the Garden when Adam transgressed the command of God. Every man since Adam is born with original sin and therefore completely guilty before a righteous God. The Bible says,
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned” (Romans 5:12).
When Adam fell his desires automatically changed from being God-ward to being self-ward. Natural man with Adam’s blood is born with that same corrupt aspiration. He is a rebel. Man – in all generations – inherited Adam’s awful sinful nature, which ultimately separates him from a holy God. It is therefore accurate to say that this evil age has been with us since the fall.
It is not just man, and this age, that has been corrupted, the whole of creation suffers under its awful consequences. When man in the form of Adam disobeyed the divine warning, he brought judgement upon mankind and the earth itself.
