M5.5 earthquake strikes 128 km NW of Vallenar, Chile

The prophecy of 'Famines, Pestilences, and Earthquakes' in various places describes earthquakes as part of the end-times birth pangs. This M5.5 earthquake in Chile is a contemporary example of the type of seismic activity mentioned, though individual earthquakes are routine geological events and do not constitute fulfillment by themselves—they represent the ongoing pattern Jesus described as characteristic of the end times.
