Famines, Pestilences, and Earthquakes In Progress

This earthquake in Tonga represents the fulfillment of 'Famines, Pestilences, and Earthquakes' (Matthew 24:7; Luke 21:11), which describes earthquakes in various places as a sign of the end times. While a single M5.1 earthquake is not extraordinary seismically, it contributes to the pattern of increasing seismic activity that characterizes the end-times 'birth pangs' described in the prophecy.
