Famines, Pestilences, and Earthquakes
In Progress
The earthquake in New Zealand fulfills the broader pattern of 'famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places' (Matthew 24:7; Luke 21:11). While individual earthquakes are common natural events, they contribute to the accumulating 'birth pangs' and signs of the times described in end-times prophecy. This 4.5 magnitude event is part of the increasing seismic activity characteristic of the latter days.
