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, duration and scope.

Earthquake swarm hits Mexican state of Guerrero. Guerrero state records approximately 25% (5×5) of the seismic activities that take place in Mexico. Interaction of five (5) tectonic plates namely the North American plate, Cocos plate, Pacific plate, Rivera plate, and the Caribbean plate.

A seismic swarm was registered by Mexico’s National Seismological Service (SSN) in the state of Guerrero from October 21 to 24, 2019. SSN registered 41 tremors with magnitudes between 3.5 and 4.9 and epicenters near Petatlan, on the shores of the state of Guerero.

The first one in the swarm took place at 21:49 LT on October 21. The agency further explained that the tremors lasted until 10:00 LT, October 24.

The largest quake of the series happened at 18:25 LT, October 22, which was felt in Petatlan and nearby areas.

Guerrero state records approximately 25% of the seismic activities that take place in Mexico. This is due to the entry of the Cocos oceanic plate below the North American continental plate.

The meeting point between the two plates happens off the Pacific coast, from the Jalisco state to Chiapas.

A magnitude 7.5 earthquake shook Guerrero on July 28, 1957. On March 14, 1979, another devastating quake with magnitude 7.6 hit the state.

Both of them caused major damage in the state and in Mexico City.

Earthquakes are recurrent and once energy has been gathered again at the border of the plates, it will have to be emitted through a quake, which is a typical phenomenon.

Eventually, as time passes in a place where an earthquake has not happened, the chance of one taking place is bigger. This situation happens between Acapulco and Petatlan on the Costa Grande de Guerrero, a region known by experts as the “Guerrero Gap”.

Mexico is in an area of high seismic activity due to the interaction of five tectonic plates namely the North American plate, Cocos plate, Pacific plate, Rivera plate, and the Caribbean plate.
