Most people don’t realize the key element to this prophecy concerning earthquakes is not just that Earthquakes will be intensifying, but the remarkable thing about this prophecy is when Jesus Christ gave this prophecy concerning the hearing of “earthquakes in diverse places” 2000 years ago, it could only be fulfilled far in the future when there would be global communication technologies such as satellite television, cell phones, and the internet capable of reporting these worldwide events as they happen.
2000 years ago the people living in Jerusalem and Israel (to whom these prophecies were first given) would never have known these earthquakes in “diverse places” had ever taken place.
So, although the world has always had Earthquakes, this Bible Prophecy tells us that as a sign we are entering into “the time of the end,” we will see and hear about them almost immediately, as they increase in frequency and size.
Described as “birth pangs,” these events will increase in size and frequency as signs we are preparing to enter the Apocalypse.
