This earthquake in Iran matches the sign of 'Famines, Pestilences, and Earthquakes' (Luke 21:11), which describes earthquakes in various places as end-times birth pangs. While a single moderate earthquake is not extraordinary, it contributes to the pattern of seismic activity globally that characterizes the signs of the times.
