Rare Strong Earthquake Hits Colorado
By KIRK JOHNSON
DENVER — The largest natural earthquake in Colorado in more than a century struck Monday night in the state’s southeast corner, but there had been no reports of damage or injuries. The quake, with a preliminary magnitude of 5.3 and centered about nine miles from the city of Trinidad. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/24/us/24earthquake.html?_r=1&hp
Reports are coming in that an earthquake just hit Washington, New York, Philadelphia, Boston and Cleveland. The U.S. Geological Survey said an earthquake of a 5.8 magnitude hit Virginia near the town of Mineral. http://link.email.washingtonpost.com/r/U38ITL/0GZWM0/97ZXG3/H0OSXU/K5V2N/ID/h
Jesus, of course, warned about a time with such issues:
8 … And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be…troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows. (Mark 13:8)
We may be at this prophetic point as all the earthquakes and other problems that have happened in the past year or so could be considered as “troubles”.
Perhaps the earthquake can serve as another wake-up call to the Americans and others that the world can change very quickly and that the time to repent is now:
30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, 31 because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead. (Acts 17:30-31)
There are troubles and repentance is needed. Things are going to get much worse in North America than this.
