Earthquakes In One Place After Another...


Recommended Posts

True the news can't cover everything...however most news media reports whatever will give them the most ratings. Right now it's political drama and celebrity gossip. This is part of Satans plan.  If you want to know what's going on in the world, you have to do some searching. 

 

Heres an article from the Los Angeles Times on a MEGA earthquake that's forecasted along the San Andreas Fault in California. 

I only wonder ... will it happen before the GT, during the GT, or at Armageddon.

Msy I please respectfully disagree with you about earthquakes being a natural phenomena? I think WE THINK they are natural because they have been happening  so long, and it is possibly a process which Jehovah may have even used initially as part of the creation process. But I think he also put measures in place pre-flood to stop any eqs. Unless I've missed mentions of eqs prior to that in the scriptures. So I don't think they are natural at all ... however, depending on what he purposes for the earth in the future, and whether he restores those measures he had previously will determine whether minor eqs become a natural process of things ... I don't wish to preempt Jehovah on this matter.

"I think", expresses an opinion. If in your opinion they are not natural phenomena that is OK by me.

What is your opinion of moon quakes? Are they a natural phenomena?

What do you think? :)

I just meant that they are the result of this topsy turvy world we live in ... people say death is a natural phenomena too ... but we know it isn't ... it's just the new norm that makes people think its natural ... so earthquakes could also be put in the same box ... to me natural phenomena like full moons, and flocks of colour butterflies and fields of fireflies are natural phenomena, the other stuff that cause harms are just messes on Jehovah's beautiful jewel.

There are lots of natural phenomenon I'm anxious to find out why they happen and how they will be in a perfect world.  We've had earthquakes, for example, far longer than fracking and other man-made causes.  Hurricanes, tornadoes, typhoons, severe thunderstorm, etc...  All of those natural events were occurring long before man stared affecting the weather through technology or misuse of the environment.  

 

Are these natural disasters a result of some environmental change after the Flood?  Many think so.  Many jump beyond the Bible and feel that the water canopy was involved in keeping some kind of balance.  We really don't know.  Maybe there was some change after the Flood.  Why, though, would Jehovah do that?  If God can become whatever he needs to become, and can do anything he wants, why would he A) Remove the water canopy and not put it back right after the flood (the flood waters evaporate and restore the canopy) or B.) Cause the flood in such a way so as to NOT result in lasting earthquakes and other natural disasters.

 

It will be interesting to find out.

I found this out from one of my doggie pages "Schnitzel the Wonder Wiener". He said "All da towels did fall off da hooks in da room wif ebil swirly thing dat is like kitty box fors people. I coulds has been squished!" 

Seriously that was a hefty one.

My basic geology studies remind me that in ancient times, human civilisation grew around water supplies, but also near fault lines - because of the prevalence of tin, copper, gold and other minerals and precious metals. These are in the earth because of tremendous pressures and forces working in them which changed, for instance, carbon to diamond etc. Fertile land on or near volcanic activity is another reason for early civilisation growth. And the earthquakes and volcanic activity were a part of the earth's creation - subduction churns the oceans and is necessary for life, plates moving created mountains. Mountains then create climate, and climate includes atmospheric changes in wind and precipitation. All earth's systems are linked, but it seems that all is off kilter.

 

When Jesus said "earthquakes in one place after another" it seems to indicate an increase in number and severity as we move to the end. So that imbalance is more due to humans unable to rule themselves, living in great populations in earthquake prone zones, and the whole world's rulership not being controlled by Jehovah, but by Satan.

 

Everything is out of balance, because everything is connected. But then you throw in man's stupid environmental disasters, and the imbalance is magnified, and we are brought close to oblivion.

Some theories are that the drilling for oil has increased earthquakes.  We know fracking causes earthquakes.

Human activity is certainly a big factor, which is why I mentioned it was because of humans' inability to rule themselves, to make the best decisions in using earth's resources. They just make it all worse, and it's undeniable in this day how human activity affects the earth's biology, geology and weather systems.

Here is list of some historical earthquakes, seems there's been quite many long time before last days started.

If you look into the 20th and 21st century lists, you can see a definite increase in "great" earthquakes.

Luke wrote about "great earthquakes", and Mark and Matthew said there would be "earthquakes in one place after another". (Mt 24:7; Mr 13:8; Lu 21:11) So we need to look at the scale as well as the spread of earthquakes.

...and factor in the increased pangs the earthquakes have caused due to increased destruction and loss of life...

Yeah, did not meant to mean anything else then that there has been earthquakes before 1914 and before humans could have much effect on them. So it makes me also ask question, why we have earthquakes that kill people. What did change after paradise, or was it always like this? Or maybe humans effect them more easily then we think? Cut a tree somewhere, and earth shakes other side of earth..

That has always been one of my favorite questions.  There have been several interesting discussions about earthquakes here on JWT.
