Blog note. Jesus indicated that ‘fearful sights’ (various natural disasters) would occur leading up to the time known as the Tribulation and Great Tribulation (a combined seven year period of great destruction on earth). Although these types of things have occurred in the past for centuries and thousands of years, they could be identified as the ‘season of the times’ due to the ferociousness of these events. They would be occurring in greater intensity, severity, frequency, size, duration, scope … just like the pains that a woman experiences in labor the farther along she is in the labor process. We are in the ‘season of the times’ that comes just before the seven (7) year Tribulation/Great Tribulation period
… And great earthquakes shall be in diverse places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven. (Luke 21:11).
… And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; (Luke 21:25)
… Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken; (Luke 21:26)
… This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. (2 Timothy 3:1)
Jesus is giving a series of prophecies about what to look for as the age of grace comes to a close. These verses are several of many such prophecies from throughout the Bible. 2017 was the worst year in recorded history for the intensity, frequency, severity, duration and occurrence of a large number of severe natural disasters worldwide. Earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes, typhoons, cyclones, torrential flooding, unprecedented wildfires in unusual places, devastating droughts, excessive/scorching heat setting records everywhere, record snowfalls in Europe and Russia. Snow in the Arabia. This list can go on. Most studied Eschatologists believe these ‘fearful sights’ and massive natural disasters are all part of the ‘CONVERGENCE’ of signs that this Biblical and prophetic age is closing. Most people who study prophecy are familiar with the routine reference(s) made that these things will be like a woman having labor pains, growing in intensity, frequency, size and duration.

Heat Waves Are Getting Worse in These 45 Cities in The U.S. Is Your City on the List?

Over the next week, much of the United States will experience temperatures of 95 degrees or higher and the weather will be “miserably hot and humid,” the National Weather Service is warning. This latest heat wave is expected to stretch from the Midwest through the Northeast, putting more than 70 million people under heat watches, warnings and advisories.

In addition to daytime temperatures in the triple digits, dozens of locations are expected to experience record-high overnight temperatures, which can be especially dangerous because they put a person’s body under extra strain as the heart pumps harder to try to regulate the body’s temperature.

If you feel like heat waves are becoming more common, you’re not imagining things. According to new research from the U.S. Global Change Research Program, major cities in the U.S. experienced an average of two heat waves per year in the 1960s, and they’ve been hit with an average of six heat waves per year in the 2010s. Not only are heat waves occurring more frequently, but heat wave season is also lasting longer. Across the 50 major cities the research program analyzed, the average heat wave time period lasted 45 days longer in the 2010s than in the 1960s.
