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.

Tropical Storm “Ivo” dumps heavy rain, claims two lives in Mexico. Video.

Heavy rain produced by Tropical Storm “Ivo,” the 9th named storm of the 2019 Pacific hurricane season, caused heavy floods across parts of Mexico last week, leaving at least two people dead.

Although Ivo was largely unnoticed by international media, as its track took him away from mainland Mexico, heavy rain produced by it caused severe floods and destruction in several parts of the country.

The worst affected were Sinaloa and Nuevo Leon, where two people lost their lives – a minor in Ahome, Sinaloa and an adult in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon. Both deaths were caused by electrocution. The seven-year-old child was electrocuted when lightning struck as he touched a refrigerator, the Mexico News Daily reports.

The state Civil Protection agency said that 25 schools had been flooded, but all but the ones in Comondu, Baja California Sur had been cleaned up before the start of classes on Monday.

Other affected states include Sonora, Puebla, Michoacán, and Morelos, which saw heavy rains and hailstorms.
