Earthquakes In Divers Places

Recent events in Haiti, Chili, New Mexico and Indonesia just this week, have caused many Christians to ask, “Are earthquakes increasing in the way that Jesus said they would in the period leading up to the Tribulation? His words are among the most forthright and unequivocal ever spoken. There can be no mistake about what He said: “For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. “All these are the beginning of sorrows” (Matt. 24:7,8).

In January and February of this year, those who search the Scriptures and watch for His return marked those words well, wondering with renewed interest whether His coming was being foreshadowed by the prophesied global events.

During the week of March 1st through 7th, there were 85 earthquakes inIt was truly a globe-shaking event. Seismologists who measured it, say that it may have shortened the length of Earth’s day by 1.26 microseconds. They also calculated a change in the Earth’s axis of rotation,
which they say moved by 8 centimeters (3.25 inches)! Ae we think bout this we are reminded of the words of Isaiah the prophet, when he wrote about the massive earthquakes in the coming
Tribulation:
“The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.“The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again. “And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth” (Is. 24:19-21).
Keep us in your prayers for the upcoming trip to Israel next week, as we "walk the paths where Jesus walked." We will be posting updates along the way.
It sure would be a "Good Day To Fly." Keep Looking Up!
