Undoubtedly one of the signs of the soon return of Christ to this earth it would be increased supernatural disasters, both of nature as those caused by man himself. It should not be cause for alarm but rather to signal that we are experiencing large-scale earthquakes in Haiti, Indonesia, Chile, Puerto Rico, and devastating tornadoes in southwest United States. Similarly storms and hurricanes in Europe, which was a rarity before, and needless to say the increase in global violence.
this reason I decided to upload a story I found interesting, which is outlined on the increase in violence, but worldwide. For those who do not share the beliefs of the soon return of Christ, I invite you to review Chapter 24 of the Gospel according to Matthew, and the books of Daniel and Revelation. Certainly later expand on these and other issues, but something that is true is to believe in God or not believe in the veracity of the Bible or not, whether we like it or not Christianity, Christ is at hand, and if promised again, believe me ... you probably are.
