M4.5 earthquake strikes 262 km W of Hihifo, Tonga

This earthquake in Tonga matches the Signs of the Times category describing 'famines, pestilences, and earthquakes' in various places as birth pangs before the end. While a single M4.5 earthquake is routine seismically, it fulfills the literal occurrence of earthquakes mentioned in Matthew 24:7 and Luke 21:11 as characteristic of the end times period.
