Mark 13:8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
Earthquakes - in the Greek the word is Seismos, which means shaking, commotion, a tempest, an earthquake. The biblical rule of "first use" says that the first time a word is used in Scripture is important for establishing the meaning hereafter. It's used the first time in Matthew 8:24 And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.
Earthquake statistics are hard to gather and compile because the rate and acceleration of occurrences is so exponential that they can not use the old measuring tools - it would show a pattern that even a moron could understand. The USGS has stopped keeping this chart, it would alarm the public if they were to put this out in a twitter style graphic. You can see for yourself that up until 2000 earthquakes over 6.0 remained infrequent around 6 per year. From 1/1/14 through 9/2/15, there have been 244 earthquakes over 6.0. (Pull your own stats here).
At an average of 6 per year during the 20th century, in 21 months we have had 40 years worth of Earthquakes. That is mind numbing... never forget there are real human costs, real lives, real losses.
