Here's a great article about earthquakes in Bible Prophecy:

(Really well done piece)


Earthquakes in Bible Prophecy


'Worsening natural disasters are looming on the horizon. As we will see, there is a strong link between these disasters and God’s warnings for people to repent of their sins."


(It's the whole point of the seven scroll judgments, 

the seven trumpet judgements, 

the seven bowl judgements

and the three woes.)


"One of the signs that precedes Christ’s second coming is devastating earthquakes. In the Olivet Prophecy Jesus Christ predicted several major trends that would occur in the end times before His return.'

"Listing some of these signs, Jesus said, “There will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places” 


"Warnings by ancient prophets

The ancient prophet Isaiah issued a similar warning for the end times. In a message that applied first to ancient Jerusalem and then to Jerusalem prior to the return of Christ, the prophet said, “You will be punished by the LORD of hosts with thunder and earthquake and great noise, with storm and tempest and the flame of devouring fire” 

(Isaiah 29:6)."


"During the “day of the Lord” Isaiah 2:12), a time of judgment upon the nations when Christ returns, Isaiah said the people “shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, from the terror of the LORD and the glory of His majesty, when He arises to shake the earth mightily” (Isaiah 2:19, compare verse 21)."


"New Testament verification

The book of Revelation speaks of several specific earthquakes that will occur in the end times. First, it notes that an earthquake will accompany the sixth seal (Revelation 6:12), an event that occurs before the seventh seal, which is also called the “day of the LORD” (Joel 2:31)


"Revelation also mentions earthquakes in chapters 8:5; 11:13, 19; and states that the wrath of God will conclude with the greatest earthquake in mankind’s history. As John noted: “And there was a great earthquake, such a mighty and great earthquake as had not occurred since men were on the earth” (Revelation 16:18). This earthquake may cause the splitting of the Mount of Olives in two as Jesus descends to earth (Zechariah 14:4)."


"Various scriptures warn us that the end-time events will come to pass suddenly and unexpectedly."

(Accept him today and be ready...

you wont have time when it's here.)


“For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth” (Luke 21:34-35).


"Although this prophecy in Haggai was directed toward the temple that was being rebuilt by the Jews, the author of the book of Hebrews used this concept of “shaking” to encourage us not to refuse God’s instruction as we shall “not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven” (Hebrews 12:25)."



"Bible prophecy matters

All of us need to take the warnings of the Bible seriously. We must be careful not to make the mistake of rejecting any of its teachings because they don’t agree with our human reasoning—our opinions, our ideas and our beliefs."


"Bible prophecy shows that unless mankind repents, earthquakes, along with other major calamities, will strike the earth in the not-too-distant future."


(I'd say it's here.)


God takes no pleasure in the suffering humans bring on themselves (2 Peter 3:9). Instead, He wants us to choose the way of happiness, joy and abundance that He offers to those who seek to please Him and live His way of life (Isaiah 2:2-4; 11:9).
