This question is usually framed something like this: "Does the Bible say that in the last days, you will not be able to know the seasons except by the changing of the leaves?" We had been asked this question many times and had done extensive research into its origin, but had never been able to find the source of the idea. Recently, someone helped us find the origin of the concept. Evidently, it comes from the “3 Days of Darkness” prophecy of Padre Pio, a Roman Catholic priest. The exact quote appears to be, “You will know when that time is approaching because the seasons will change so the only way you will know the seasons is by the leaves on the trees.”

This “not knowing the seasons except by the leaves” concept is not biblical. In fact, there are verses in the Bible which actually teach the opposite. Genesis 8:22 declares, "As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease." Matthew 24:32-33 exclaims, "Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that the end is near, right at the door." See also Jeremiah 33:20-25. With these Scriptures in view, the idea of the seasons being indistinguishable in the end times does not have any biblical foundation.

About not being able to tell the seasons apart, I have never read this. In Genesis 8:22 it Says while the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest,And cold and heat, And summer and winter,And day and night Shall not cease. NASB

The book of revelations has the majority of the signs of the ends of times, seasons, anti-christs, beasts from the sea, etc. The end of time is also prophesied throughout the bible by people like Isaiah, Elijah, even Jesus himself throughout the entire new testament......up to the book of John that is.

I don't think it says it that way, at least I have not read that anywhere, It does say in Acts. 1:6,7 the disciples asked Jesus when was the Kingdom going to be restored to Israel ? And Jesus answered it is not for you to know the times or the seasons as to when that would happen this was Gods secret see also 1Thess.5:1 and Mat.24: Vs.36,42,44 and Mat.25:13...Genaveve

I don't believe that's said anywhere, indeed there is a passage which states that to everything there is a season. That even became a song lyric.
