Earthquakes In Diverse Places!

Once again we see a great convulsing of the earth�in central China, perhaps up to 50,000 people killed in the latest tragedy. Consider the significance of this observation from an article found at http://raptureready.com/rap16.html dated 5-19-08�
�Over the past 200 years, we normally only see quakes that kill more than 15,000 people once about every ten years� in the past decade, we have seen 6 quakes of this nature.�

�Later, Jesus sat on the slopes of the Mount of Olives. His disciples came to him privately and asked, "When will all this take place? And will there be any sign ahead of time to signal your return and the end of the world?�
�Jesus told them � there will be famines and earthquakes in many parts of the world. But all this will be only the beginning of the horrors to come.�

Look up, saints, for �your redemption draweth nigh!�
