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.

Seven people have been killed while 11 others were injured after heavy rainfall triggered flooding in the northeastern part of Saudi Arabia on October 27, 2019. The rains have been occurring since October 25.

Aside from the fatalities, the floods also damaged houses, affecting around 1,200 residents. At least 40 vehicles were ravaged by traffic incidents as a result of the severe weather.

The heavy rain and storms started pouring on Friday morning, October 25, and continued until Sunday, October 27 in the eastern areas of the kingdom.

This includes the areas of Harf Al-Batin, Al-Khafaji and Al-Qur’a Al-Alia.

About 15 people who were trapped by the floodwaters have been rescued, according to the Saudi Defense Department. Rescue services in the northeastern city of Hafer Al-Batin, about 100 km (62 miles) southwest of Kuwait said the victims were forced to evacuate and have been taken to safety. Temporary shelters have been provided to the people affected by the rain, according to the department.

During the previous years, the kingdom and the region at large have been struck by a gradual increasing figure of natural calamities, such as the flash floods which resulted in 30 fatalities in November 2018, as well as the snowstorms which hit much of the Gulf region in April 2018.
