...through the birth of a flawless red heifer. From CBN News :

In Jewish theology, the red heifer is essential to the rebuilding of the third Holy Temple in Jerusalem and will be needed to be sacrificed to complete the ritual of purification for the Temple.

Jews believe this event is part of the process that would mark the coming of the Messiah and the final judgment.

But the significance of the red heifer also relates to Christians who believe the completion of the third Temple is a symbol heralding the second coming of Jesus Christ. https://www1.cbn.com/cbnnews/world/...less-red-heifer-could-signal-the-third-temple

How seriously is this being taken?

Meaning that the Anti-Christ is alive and probably in a position of authority. Makes one wonder who that can possibly be......

Yes and no. That is the belief of the Hardin, which is the ultra fundamentalist group in Israel. They have to wait a least a few years also, because the previous ones showed flaws after a year or so.

The Hardin take it seriously. The majority of Jews do not.
 
Not sure what a heifer has to do with it, my grandfather had an old heifer named Brownie, she was a sweet old gal...

But as for prophecy, the Bible gives several signs...how many have we seen fulfilled?

Wars, famines, earthquakes, and epidemics of deadly disease.​...Matthew 24:7; Luke 21:11

Significant increase in crime.​...Matthew 24:12

The ruining of the earth by mankind.​..Revelation 11:18

People who love themselves, money, and pleasures but do not love God.​..2 Timothy 3:2, 4

The breakdown of the family.​..2 Timothy 3:2, 3

General apathy toward the evidence of the approaching end.​..Matthew 24:37-39

The preaching of the good news of God’s Kingdom worldwide.​..Matthew 24:14

And of course, the prophecy of 1 Thessalonians 5:3...

“Whenever it is that they are saying: ‘Peace and security!’ then sudden destruction is to be instantly upon them just as the pang of distress upon a pregnant woman; and they will by no means escape.”​

The thing is, no one can engineer the end, Jehovah controls that and it will happen in His due time, not man's...

Throughout their history, Jehovah Witnesses have shifted their statements regarding the end of the world. They have claimed that the world would end on five specific occasions. They have also introduced “New Light”—new teachings that override failed prophecies.

Many Jehovah’s Witness teachings are based on their concept of history. Founder C. T. Russell taught there would be six thousand years from the creation of Adam until Jesus would return and begin his reign on earth. Initially, Russell predicted the end of the world in 1914.

When this prophecy failed, his successor, Joseph Rutherford, announced a recalculation of the original creation of Adam, moving the date up to 1925. Three other specific dates for the end of the world have come and gone. Since November 1995, Witnesses have ceased to predict particular dates.

Thanks for that. I didn't know about the significance of the red heifer.
