A few facts I'd like to throw out. God gave Noah the exact day for the flood. People of Ninievah were given 40 days by God before He would destroy them.
Now given those facts and the fact that we do have the word of God, don't you think God would have given us the day for the end of the world as well?
Familyradio dott comm has a great Bibical resource and timeline they have been working on go check it out.
For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. But ye, brethren , are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
In these verses, God is teaching us that those who read the Bible are divided in two kinds of people. There are those who are satisfied with their present understanding of their relationship with God. They know that someday the world will end, but their understanding is that the timetable of the last day is known only by God. Therefore, they think that mankind need not be concerned about it. For them , Christ indeed will come as a thief in the night.
However, His coming for these individuals is for the purpose of destroying them. How awful!
On the other hand, there are those who have come to realize that God has given us much information in the Bible concerning the timetable of history. Therefore, they have learned, from the Bible, much about the timetable of the creation of the world and a great many other major events that are recorded in the Bible.
They have also learned very much about the precise timetable of the end of the world. For them, the timing of the end of the world will not be unexpected.
Mark 13
The Day and Hour Unknown 32"No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

I Thessalonians 5:2-6:
For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. But ye, brethren , are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.

And as we read in revelation 3:3
Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
