In the Bible we learn that "in the latter days" "knowledge shall increase". Daniel 12:4

While in the West people stood at the start of the industrial revolution during the 19th century,in the East, in Iran, a Spiritual drama took place, with the appearance of the Báb,(Gate) Herald of Bahaullah, Founder of the Bahai Faith. Both these movements started in 1844.
In this chapter I will show how inventions, discoveries  and new ideals burst forth, overwhelming the United States Patent Office like a flood. After that  you can click on the blue link and you will see the films 2 and 4 which shows the historic views about the inauguration of the Bahai Faith, beginning in 1844.

2. The First Congress for Universal Education
3.  Initial measures were taken to abolish child labour.
4.  The Emancipation Proclamation, freeing the slaves in the United States, was   signed.

We are the generation of information,
William Sears, whom I have quoted above from his book "Thief in The Night" asks "is there any doubt that these were the events foreseen by Daniel for the time of the end? In the very chapter in which he spoke of the 1. Coming of Michael, 'Who looks like God' Daniel12:1,
2. in the year of 1844,(Daniel 12:7) 3.when the Book will be unsealed (Daniel 12:4, Daniel prophesied:
 "....many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased"
