Comments: There has been talk for centuries of all the badness going to end. When you ask the future tellers they tell you its just around the corner. Give us a date when it will actually happen or stay quiet. Better yet, just stay quiet because you don't know the date. Keeping people hoping for something beyond that they don't know themselves is playing with people's hope. Mean time I see a lot of suffering going on and no end to it.

I can understand that looking at the events of the world today can be quite discouraging.
Even so the Bible encourages us.
QUOTE (Luke 21:28) . . .But as these things start to occur, raise yourselves erect and lift YOUR heads up, because YOUR deliverance is getting near."

Wasn't that said to the people back then like 2000 years ago? Doesn't seem so near to me 2000 years later.

Jesus gave us a composite sign of events that would occur in what the bible calls the last days, or end times. What are the events that Jesus prophesied, and are they occurring in our day, marking it as the "last days"
MAJOR DEVELOPMENTS OF THE LAST DAYS
WARS
QUOTE "Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom." (Matthew 24:7)
A report from the Worldwatch Institute states:
QUOTE "Three times as many people fell victim to war in [the 20th] century as in all the wars from the first century AD to 1899."
FOOD SHORTAGES
QUOTE "There will be food shortages." (Matthew 24:7)
When over a billion people have to live on an income of a dollar or less a day in developing countries is it any wonder why millions in the world today suffer chronic hunger. The World Health Organization estimates that malnutrition plays a major role in the deaths of more than five million children each year.
EARTHQUAKES
QUOTE "There will be great earthquakes." (Luke 21:11)
Earth quakes today occur with more frequency than in centuries pass,
and despite advances in technology, the death toll remains high because many rapidly growing cities are located on earthquake fault lines
What would people be like in the last days?
QUOTE * lovers of themselves
* lovers of money
* disobedient to parents
* disloyal
* having no natural affection
* without self-control
* fierce
* lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God
* having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power (2 Timothy 3:1-5)

POSITIVE DEVELOPMENT
The good news of God's kingdom is being preached to all the inhabited earth and many are responding to that message in a positive way. Preparing themselves for that day when the meek will inherit the earth and live in an abundance of peace.( Matthew 24:14; John 17:3; Psalms 37:9-10; Revelation 21:4-6)

Those things have been happening for years, they've been happening before Jesus and they've been happening after. If you read history you'll see that.

Jesus himself said even though seeing the signs occurring around them many would display an apathetic attitude, to their own detriment. (Matthew 24:37-39) And the apostle Peter acknowledges the same
QUOTE ( Bible)(2 Peter 3:3-4) . . .For YOU know this first, that in the last days there will come ridiculers with their ridicule, proceeding according to their own desires 4 and saying: "Where is this promised presence of his? Why, from the day our forefathers fell asleep [in death], all things are continuing exactly as from creation's beginning."

Natalie, hopefully this answers your two part question.
1)The golden age, or what Christians call the millennium rule of Christ happens after Armageddon.
2) 1914 was the start of what the Bible calls the end of days / last days/ Woe for the earth.
World War 1 started in 1914 and the world has not seen peace since, for nation will rise against nation and Kingdom against kingdom. This is just one part of the composite sign Jesus said would mark the time of the end, which we currently find ourselves living in.(Mathew 24:3-14; 2Timothy 3:1-5)
