First, Jesus said no one knows when the end will be: "not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows" (Matt. 24:36). So even if there was the imagined end of the world coming, you can't know when; not even Jesus could know, or the angels, but only God. Secondly, you'd have to take Revelations literally (which is absurd), and add to it a bunch of junk not even taken from the Bible (like Nostradamus and Left Behind): a cherry picking buffet. When "the end" that Jesus and the Revelation was talking about could just as easily have been the spiritual death and rebirth you feel, when you realize the wisdom of loving your neighbor, instead of hating them, and are so reborn.
Finally, even if we ignore all of that, and accept what this woman (and many others like her) believe, that the literal "day of the Lord" is near, then they should be happy about that. They shouldn't be fighting against the "signs of the times," such as, I dunno, Democrats or Bud Lite for example. They should be rejoicing that the literal God's literal kingdom is on the verge of literally joining with us on Earth, as it is in the literal Heaven. They shouldn't be fighting what they perceive as demons or the beast, or whatever. They should be singing and dancing, because their suffering is ostensibly over and Jesus is literally returning to reward them with a white horse, their own golden throne, and lots of sexy M&M's.
