M4.8 earthquake strikes 110 km SW of Basco, Philippines

This earthquake in the Philippines fits the general category of 'Famines, Pestilences, and Earthquakes' as a sign of the times. While individual earthquakes occur naturally throughout history, Matthew 24:7 and Luke 21:11 describe earthquakes in various places as birth pangs preceding the end times. A M4.8 earthquake is moderate in scale and contributes to the pattern of seismic activity globally.
