Today I am reading in the paper (The New Zealand Herald, Monday, July 22, 2013) about the three big earthquakes that rocked Wellington, the capital of New Zealand on Friday and Sunday.

I looked up what the Bible says about earthquakes:  In Matthew chapter 24 the Lord Jesus Christ Foretells the Future and in verse seven he says:

“‘Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.'”

Read also Mark 13:8 and Luke 21:11. I notice that it says in Luke 21:11 “‘There will be great earthquakes …'”

Whenever I read about and hear about earthquakes First Corinthians 3:11 comes to my mind. It is also a verse I really love and have memorized. 

“For no one  can lay any foundation other than the one already laid which is JESUS CHRIST.”
