Published 13 hours ago
Description
It's Throwback Thursday. This week, it's a timely discussion given this week’s devastating and deadly earthquake-induced landslide and flash flood on the border between Nepal and Tibet.
Originally released May 18, 2008
MORE than 50,000 people are estimated to have died in the May 12 earthquake in China, many of whom still lie beneath rubble scattered across an area the size of Belgium.
Elsewhere, the city of Reno, Nevada looks nervously to the northwest, where thousands of minor earthquakes have rattled the area since February 28. Scientists are puzzled by this cluster because they don't fit any known pattern.
And here in the Midwestern U.S., we were startled by a M5.2 earthquake centered in southeast Illinois on April 18, the second strongest earthquake recorded in the state since the arrival of white settlers in the early 19th century.
What's with all of the unusual seismic activity? And how does this relate to biblical prophecies of catastrophic global earthquakes in the end times? David W. Lowe, author of Earthquake Resurrection and Then His Voice Shook the Earth, shares his thoughts.
