Matthew 24:35-39 Jesus says:
36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but MY Father only.
37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

We do not know the day or the hour of Jesus return, but we do know the season, for Jesus says as the buds come on the trees we know spring and summer are near.
The signs that the coming of Jesus is near:
π₯ Jesus cannot return until the apostasy has come into the churches.
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come (day of the Lord), except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped;
The falling away: Churches will fall away from scripture and set up other doctrines. Churches changing doctrines, falling away from some of the Holy Scriptures.
Antichrist comes into the churches and sits in the "temple of God".
This has been happening for many decades.

π₯ Violence will increase upon the earth as violence increased in the day of Noah.
Genesis 6
5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
6 And it repented the LORD that HE had made man on the earth, and it grieved HIM at HIS heart.
7And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before ME; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

And Paul says the last days will be perilous times and Paul tells us why this will be.
2 Timothy 3
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection (homosexuals & lesbians: Romans 1:26-29),
trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness (attending church), but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
(The plagues from God of the great tribulation are listed in Revelation 8; 9; 16)
