Emergency services are already preparing for how to deal with a terrible off-shore earthquake in the Cascadia Subduction Zone, off the west coast of America near California. They were just completing their four-day major emergency test run when a 5.2 magnitude quake hit Borrego Springs, San Diego County, in California on Friday. The mid-sized earthquake caused more than 200 aftershocks – some more than three on the richter scale - and could be felt from Santa Barbara to the Mexican border. Egill Hauksson, a research professor of geophysics at Caltech, said of the 5.2 quake: "It was the biggest one for a while."

A 3.1 magnitude quake followed yesterday, 14 miles from Borrego Spring according to the US Geological Survey (USGS). And in the last 10 days there has been nine earthquakes of magnitude 3 or greater nearby according to the USGS, leading to fears of what may be to come. The quakes have taken place on the San Jacinto fault, the region's most active, Mr Hauksson said. Scientists say both the California fault lines and the Cascadia Subduction Zone are long overdue a major earthquake of magnitude eight or above. In a statement after the Cascadia Rising emergency tests a spokesman said: "Subduction zone earthquakes are said to be among the most powerful, and can exceed a 9 magnitude."

Matthew 24:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them,Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. [...] 7 ... and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of Birth Pangs.

Somebody alert Pierce Brosnan! And don’t drive that van across the bridge!

Seriously, I know one guy in California that’s prepping. I don’t know if he’s concerned about this or the water shortage. Or both.

Folks need to do what they think they should. Yes, I do believe we’re in the closing time of the Church Age.

Which will hit first :The Big One, or Halley’s Comet which orbits every 75 years? Halley is due for another visit July 28, 2061. I probably will miss it.

That “e” got left off it appears......right there in the KJV ... even after the revisions. (most places but not all).

Guess that’s how they used to do it.

Lots of seismic activity lately. I will make a gentleman’s bet that Jesus Christ returns long before Halley’s Comet. Why do I believe that? The rebirth of Israel occurred in 1948. Jesus said the generation that sees the signs in Matthew 24, will not pass away until everything be fulfilled

Interesting. Matthew , Chapter 24? I may want to look that up for reassurance. I suppose it’s in any Christian Bible.

Me too, however not other State has enacted anti-christian legislation like California (forcing churches to pay for abortion, transgender reassignment, forced vaccinations, baby part sales, etc.)
