Earthquakes

Earthquakes are quite common in California and are becoming more evident in other areas of the world and can be quite devastating. In Mark 13:8, one of the signs of the end times has to do with earthquakes being in various places.

One earthquake is reported to have brought a dramatic conclusion to an event that was designed to fulfill the needs of everyone on earth. This is recorded in Matthew 28:2 and takes place in the first century. A severe earthquake was recorded and this quake brought a conclusion to God's plan of salvation, with Jesus being resurrected from His grave.

The earthquake preceded the appearance of an angel who came down from heaven to roll the stone from the grave of Jesus, so everyone who looked in would be convinced that the resurrection of Jesus Christ took place.
