M4.9 earthquake strikes 57 km SW of Sarangani, Philippines

This earthquake in the Philippines exemplifies the 'Famines, Pestilences, and Earthquakes' prophecy, which describes geological crises multiplying in various places as end-times 'birth pangs.' While a single M4.9 earthquake is not catastrophic, it contributes to the pattern of increasing seismic activity worldwide that characterizes the signs of the times.
