Significance of 2 Earthquakes in Christchurch
|
||
Names in the Bible are of great significance. Joshua in the OT is the saviour of the Israelites in the conquest of the Promised land. Our Lord Jesus changed the name of Simon to Peter. Now we have a town by the name of `Christchurch' in New Zealand, one of the few Christian nations left and having the highest percentage of Bible believing Christians. Is God trying to tell Christians what will be happening to His church soon from the 2 big earthquakes in Christchurch?

From the above analysis and if `Christchurch' represent the Church of our Lord Jesus Christ, then before 3rd. February 2011, natural disasters though deadly and immense, God minimized the impact. But from 3rd. February 2011 onwards, God destroyed the Catholic Cathedral - representing an idolatry church and the Anglican Christchurch Cathedral - representing an adulterous church.

Abominations of the Catholic church (Idolatry)
|
||
"You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them...." Exod 20:4-5 (NKJ)
|
Idolatry is forbidden. Images ressembling anything or anybody whether on earth or in heaven must not be woshipped or bowed down to. These images, pictures or idols include images of God, our Lord Jesus, crucifix, angels, Mary, saints, humans, animals, etc.
|
|
Covetousness is idolatry (Col 3:5)
|
||
Abominations of the Anglican Church (Homosexuality)
|
||
'If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them." Lev 20:13 (NKJ)
|
God did not create any homosexual just as he did not create any drunkard nor drug addict nor gambler. Homosexuality is an abomination to the Lord and the homosexuals (gays and lesbians) must be put to death.

For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. Rom 8:5-8 (NKJ)
|
||
The Cathedral is the office of the Bishop. The head of the Anglican denomination is Bishop Victoria Matthews and the Bishop of the Catholic church is Bishop Barry Jones. The destruction of the Cathedrals means the destroying of these church leaders, who had misled the congregations (Jesus' sheep). Only about 200 souls were killed. From these observations, God will cleanse His church (Church of Christ) by killing all misled, carnal and covetous church and Christian leaders, and pastors in every church, every town and every country during this period of the 4th Seal (Beginning of Sorrows).

The Beginning of Sorrows
|
||
"But when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be troubled; for such things must happen, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows." Mark 13:7-8 (NKJ)
|
||
This Scripture verse is clear that the moment the Beginnings of Sorrows has started, then immediately there will be civil unrests or wars (nation against nation). There will also be great earthquakes in various places killing many. Famines, pestilences (including nuclear fallout) and other troubles will kill many (Note: - 1/4 of all mankind will be killed within a short period of possibly 6 months).

Beginning of Sorrows (opening of the 4th Seal) since 3rd Feb 2011
|
Nation vs nation, kingdom vs kingdom, famines, pestilences, and earthquakes.
|
|
nation will rise against nation
|
These are the internal conflicts especially in the Arab World. Tunisia and Egypt had fallen. Libya, Yemen, Jordan, etc. are facing civil unrest and rebellions.
|
|
kingdom against kingdom
|
The above civil unrests will lead to international wars and finally World War 3.
|
|
And there will be earthquakes in various places
|
Feb 22 - 6.2 Earthquake in New Zealand - Christchurch with 166 dead and US$10 bil.
Mar 11 - 9.0 Earthquake in Japan with 10m tsunami killing tens of thousand and many billions of US dollars damage.
|
|
and there will be famines
and troubles
|
With floods in Australia, droughts in Russia and China, material and food cost had gone up tremendously.
Tsunamis in Japan killed tens of thousands of people causing over US$300 billions.
Radiations from damaged nuclear power station causing world wide fears.

The Humbling of the Christians
This 4th Seal or World War 3 will kill 1/4 of mankind. There will be great famines, pestilences, nuclear wars and great earthquakes and tsunamis causing untold death, damages and sufferings. The killing of the depraved and unrepented church and Christian leaders will surprise all misled Christians and will wake them up from their deception by the heresies taught by these depraved Christian leaders.
"Nevertheless I have a few things against you, because you allow that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and seduce My servants to commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols. And I gave her time to repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent. Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of their deeds. I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who searches the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works." Rev 2:20-23 (NKJ)
During this time of needs, sufferings and a time of uncertainty, many Christians will humble themselves and seek the Lord for His deliverance. God in His great love and mercy will protect, help, feed and care for His people with His divine intervention.
Yet for many years You had patience with them, and testified against them by Your Spirit in Your prophets. Yet they would not listen; therefore You gave them into the hand of the peoples of the lands. Nevertheless in Your great mercy you did not utterly consume them nor forsake them; for You are God, gracious and merciful. "Now therefore, our God, the great, the mighty, and awesome God, who keeps covenant and mercy: do not let all the trouble seem small before You that has come upon us, our kings and our princes, our priests and our prophets, our fathers and on all Your people, from the days of the kings of Assyria until this day. However You are just in all that has befallen us; for You have dealt faithfully, but we have done wickedly." Neh 9:30-33 (NKJ)
Christians experiencing these signs and wonders in their deliverance will rejoice in God's love and their faith in Him will increase tremendously. This will lead them to go read to the Word of God out of the love for Him because of His faithfulness, love and mercy.
The Great Revival (Latter Rain)
On understanding the word of God, they will repent of their unfaithfulness to the Lord by their rebellion against His Word because of the deceptions of the heresies and distorted doctrinces of their Christian leaders.
"Here we are, servants today! And the land that You gave to our fathers, to eat its fruit and its bounty, here we are, servants in it! And it yields much increase to the kings you have set over us, because of our sins; also they have dominion over our bodies and our cattle at their pleasure; and we are in great distress. And because of all this, we make a sure covenant, and write it; our leaders, our Levites, and our priests seal it." Neh 9:36-38 (NKJ)
There will no longer be the denomination walls. All Christians will be the sheep of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the pastors chosen then will be shepherding for Jesus, the good Shepherd. It will be a time of revival for the hundreds of millions of repented Christians (2 billions of Christians on earth today). It will also be the time of the latter rain whereby the outpouring of the Holy Spirit will be upon the hundreds of millions of repented Christians. This outpouring of the Holy Spirit will be very much greater than Pentacost (5,000 souls only) 2,000 years ago. God will prepare His people to be the chosen generation, a royal priesthood for His glory to face the coming 5th Seal.
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy. 1 Pet 2:9-10 (NKJ)
Hallelujah, the Lord God Almighty reigns.
So when the time is ripe for the 5th Seal to be opened, the body of Christ (Church of Christ) will be ready to face the Great Tribulation and overcome the deception of Antichrist.

"But if that servant says in his heart, 'My master is delaying his coming,' and begins to beat the male and female servants, and to eat and drink and be drunk, the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the unbelievers." Luke 12:45-46 (NKJ)
|
These servants of His when they found that Jesus did not come in the year 2000AD (read also Y2K bug) as they expected, then began to become wicked. The fleeced their congregations by building their own empire and robbed them of their wealth so that they can make themselves rich and powerful. God will destroy them and their final destination will be the lake of fire.

News on Feb 22. As CBS is reporting, Tuesday's temblor was the second major quake to hit Christchurch in five months, though it caused more damage than a considerably stronger September quake. Though rescue efforts are continuing, more than 100 people are thought to remain trapped in the rubble.

This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind, having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their heart; who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to lewdness, to work all uncleanness with greediness. Eph 4:17-19 (NKJ)

Repent brethren from your heresies and distorted teachings,
and go back to the Word of God as the sole authority.
See video by Pastor David Wilkerson
|

Brethren, the civil wars will increase and the international wars will begin very soon. (Watch our for Iran and Israel involving in the international wars - note also Bahrain and Saudi Arabia). Earthquakes will be of greater and greater magnitudes setting out bigger and bigger tsunamis. Millions and million of souls will be killed. Pestilences including deadly plagues, nuclear fall-out, and famines will kill many more millions.
|
||
To God be the glory for His immense wisdom in
protecting and guiding us in this difficult times.
|

But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber. 2 Pet 2:1-3
