Quake levels at least 10k homes in China; “mystery tremors” in CA
An earthquake rocked Yunnan province in China last night, collapsing at least 10,000 homes and leaving more than 300 injured. Meanwhile, in America, scientists have detected “mysterious vibrations” coming from a section of the San Andreas Fault known for producing killer quakes, including a massive 7.8 ground shaker in 1857. Scientists fear that these tremors indicate the fault is under heavy stress and may cause a devastating earthquake soon.
The frequency and severity of earthquakes has increased exponentially during recent years. There were six-times more super quakes (magnitude 7.0 and above) from 1997-2007 then in any other time period since modern quake calculations began in 1863. This trend will continue as we head into the Tribulation (Matthew 24:7, Mark 13:8, Luke 21:11). During the Tribulation the number and severity of earthquakes will be off the chart (Revelation 6:12, 8:5, 11:13, 19), leading up to the greatest earthquake in the history of man (Revelation 16:18), which occurs when Christ returns to set His feet on the Mount of Olives, causing a quake so powerful that the mountain will split in half (Zechariah 14:4).
