LOL... . You're funny! The Bible says a merry heart(laughter) does good like a medicine. But seriously it really did happen it was front page news! I hope that it really does help someone to realize that the times of the end are closer then ever before!
Actually the numbers of earthquakes are steadily increasing overall decade by decade. If you look at it year by year, you'll have a year that spikes and then one or two years that there aren't as many earthquakes as it was that one year. But then it'll spike again and it never goes back down to what our levels used to be. It gradually and steadily increases. I'll have to ask her what the link is but she saw this chart of the seismographic activity in the past three decades. She said that the pattern actually resembles that of labor contractions. "For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. " Travailing is usually used in reference to a woman in labor... I find this whole time period exciting and sorrowful. Exciting because it means that my Saviour is coming. Sorrowful because there are so many out there who don't know God's love
The attached graph covers just the years 2000 - 2009. There are more charts as well at this site. To me, it looks like random chaos. There are "spikes" in smaller quakes leading up to a larger quake, and that is followed by after shocks as things in the region start to settle down.
World wide, I can discern no pattern here other than the fact that most quakes happen around deep sea trenches where the older sea floor is subducting beneath a continental plate.
There are also rifts in the continental plates where you will have swarms of earthquake activity, such as Nevada, the San Luis Valley in Colorado and New Mexico and the New Madrid fault in the Missouri and Ohio River basins.
Scripture reads that John the baptist was the ONE voice crying prepare ye the way of the Lord, and it was HE who Isaiah was prophetically referencing, not us.
Matt. 3:3 This is he who was spoken of through the prophet Isaiah:
"A voice of one calling in the desert,
'Prepare the way for the Lord ....

Jesus said the earthquakes were a sign leading up to the Tribulation and he very precisely told his disciples..when YOU shall see...not they that see..his audience was his disciples and He was telling THEM things THEY would see in THEIR lifetime..so many do not grasp this simple truth..

And? Did they see earthquakes in divers places, in their lifetimes? Famines, pestilences, wars, rumors of wars? Did the world end?

World in that passage is rendered Age. The age of Law keeping ended and grace came on the scene. Yes all those things occurred in the, "Known World," The Roman Empire....
