NATURAL DISASTERS
CHRISTIANITY
OASIS
HAS PROVIDED YOU WITH THIS
NATURAL DISASTERS AND SIGN OF THE END TIMES STUDY ON
NATURAL DISASTERS. MOST ARE AWARE OF THE MULTITUDE OF NATURAL
DISASTERS HAPPENING ALL AROUND US BUT DID YOU KNOW THAT NATURAL
DISASTERS ARE A SIGN OF THE END TIMES? LET'S SEEK AND FIND THE TRUTH
OF NATURAL DISASTERS AND WHAT ROLE THEY PLAY AS A SIGN OF THE END TIMES, SHALL WE?
SIGN OF THE END TIMES
BIBLE STUDY PROPHECY
THE BIBLE WARNS
US THAT WE SHOULD WATCH FOR ANY SIGN OF THE END TIMES. FOR EXAMPLE, NATURAL DISASTERS WILL INCREASE IN FREQUENCY AS THE END
NEARS. IN OUR WORLD TODAY, WE HAVE A GROWING NUMBER OF NATURAL
DISASTERS SUCH AS TORNADOES, FLOODS, EARTHQUAKES AND TSUNAMIS,
VOLCANOES, WILDFIRES AND MORE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS
OF PEOPLE THAT DIE IN THESE DEVASTATIONS WORLDWIDE, EVERY YEAR.
COULD THIS BE YET ANOTHER SIGN OF THE END TIMES?
Lets look
first at the rise in earthquakes over the last centuries.
The Bible states that there will be an increase in the
number of earthquakes in the last days.
|
Matthew 24:7
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and
there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers
(various) places.
|
The critics state that the reason that we see more now than say
300 years ago or more is because we now have the equipment to
measure these tremors. This of course is a logical conclusion to
the matter. However when counting earthquakes of a magnitude of
7.0 and higher one can conclude that a rise in this size of
quake should definitely be considered as a sign of the end.
Most Biblical researchers use 6.0, which is a very powerful
quake. However for this study lets look at 7.0. Just in
case you weren't aware, a 6.1 magnitude earthquake is 10 times
more powerful than a 6.0. This means that a 7.0 magnitude
earthquake is 100 times more powerful than a 6.0. Surely
something this big will be recorded and you don't need any
scientific instrument to notice it!
If you check out the graph, you will see that in the last century, there
were significantly more earthquakes of 7.0 or more than in the previous 18
centuries combined! I'm satisfied that this substantiates the claim of many
researchers both of the biblical nature and the scientific nature.
Four significant earthquakes hit California
during the week of June 10th -17th ...
Beware ... The sign of the End Times
with earthquakes increasing
is occurring now ...
Looks like
Earthquakes aren't the only Natural Disaster on the rise in our times. After
last years pounding hurricanes we are being told by NOAA that we are to expect
more of the same this year.
Forecasters see big Atlantic hurricane season
MIAMI - U.S. forecasters
predicted on Monday that up to 15 tropical storms and hurricanes would form in
the Atlantic and Caribbean this year, another busy season on the heels of one
that hammered Florida with four hurricanes and swamped U.S. oil production. If
the forecasters are right, the 2005 hurricane season, which runs from June 1 to
Nov. 30, would continue a string of mostly above-average stormy seasons that
began a decade ago, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
said in its annual hurricane forecast. "Since 1995,
conditions in the tropics have been very favorable for active hurricane seasons.
Eight out of those 10 years were above normal and we expect this to be nine
out of 11," NOAA Administrator Conrad Lautenbacher said at a news conference
in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. The Atlantic and Caribbean basin will see 12 to
15 tropical storms during the season, NOAA said. From seven to nine of those
storms will become hurricanes and three to five of the hurricanes will be major
ones, with sustained winds exceeding 110 mph (177 kph), the agency said. An
average hurricane season has 9.6 tropical storms, of which 5.9 grow to hurricane
strength of 74 mph (119 kph). Of those hurricanes, 2.3 become major hurricanes.
Haiti, Grenada, Jamaica, the Cayman Islands and Florida were hard hit during
last year's hurricane season, which produced 15 storms.
Hurricane Jeanne,
a tropical storm when it passed near Haiti, triggered floods that killed about
3,000 people in the poorest country in the Americas. Ivan damaged about 90
percent of Grenada's housing stock. Florida bore the brunt of the U.S. impact.
Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne slammed into the state during a
six-week period, causing about $45 billion in damage. The storms killed 57
people directly in the United States and another 152 died from indirect but
related causes. Nearly 10 million people came under evacuation orders, thousands
of homes in Florida were damaged or destroyed and the state's citrus industry
was hit hard. Ivan was the most damaging on record for the U.S. oil industry,
destroying several oil and gas platforms in the Gulf of Mexico and triggering
massive underwater mudslides that damaged undersea pipelines. Oil production
from the Gulf of Mexico was reduced by 45 million barrels between September and
February, according to the Minerals Management Service, contributing to last
year's spike in energy prices. The same climate conditions
that fed last year's busy season, including warm sea temperatures, low wind
shear and sea surface pressure, weak easterly trade winds and a favorable
African easterly jet stream, are in place this year, NOAA said. El Nino,
the warm-water phenomenon in the eastern Pacific that tends to dampen Atlantic
hurricane activity, is not likely to be a factor this year. "El Nino, we are
predicting, will be in a neutral state this year," Lautenbacher said. "We do not
expect the El Nino conditions to play any role in this year's hurricane
forecast." Although the 2004 season did not produce a record number of storms,
it marked the first time since 1886 that a single state -- Florida -- was hit by
four hurricanes in one season. Nine of the 15 storms
reached hurricane strength.
HURRICANE KATRINA
One of the largest hurricanes to ever
hit the United States Gulf Coast has destroyed many cites and taken many lives.
IS THIS JUST THE BEGINNING?
It was
reported yesterday by the weatherman on the local news that the data is in. 2006
was the hottest recorded year in history. Not just here in America but
worldwide. With this winter being extremely warm and no cold weather in sight in
the near future. Keep your eyes,
ears and senses open. The sign of the end times is creeping closer and closer.
