Matthew 24:7,8
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Mark 13:8 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.

Luke 21:11 11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

Luke 21:25,26
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

Revelation 6:12-17
12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day of his wrath (Tribulation Period) is come; and who shall be able to stand?

Part of end-times prophecy is changes in the earth. As time goes on, we’ve seen an increase in global temperature, causing increased hurricane and tornadoes in the mid and south east part of the U.S. We’ve also seen an increase in deadly earthquakes that started around the time of the Sumatra quake in December 2004. Since that time, there has either been an increase in earthquake activity, or the news media is reporting it more. There is also the increased activity around the ring of fire suddenly jump-starting several dormant volcanoes. Environmentalists would like to point out that we’re to blame, however, considering one volcano eruption spews more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than a year’s worth of cars driving in the U.S., and the increased temperatures and activity elsewhere in our solar system, these earth changes are outside our puny little control and are the result of the birth pangs described by Christ about the coming time period. They’ll only get closer together and more extreme in intensity

sample of the extreme weather our globe has experienced over the past few years:

The United States logs the warmest January since 1895, averaging just under 40 degrees.
A record downpour soaks the Nevada desert.
Hail pummels Manhattan in the middle of April.
Glaciers melt in Greenland.
The worst drought hits the Amazon rain forest in a century.
Three Category 5 hurricanes — including Katrina, Rita and Wilma — and 27 named Atlantic storms struck in 2005.
Just last summer, India records its greatest precipitation event ever, with a weather station in Mumbai getting 37 inches of rain in 24 hours.
In Hawaii Mount Waialeale got nearly 130 inches — almost 11 feet — of rain in six weeks.
Back in 2003, Europe’s record-breaking heat wave killed more than 30,000 eel in the River Rhine.
Wildfires burn 2.6 million hectares in Alaska.
Canada experiences a record cold winter in the east and a record hot summer on the west coast.
Tasmania gets its second wettest January in more than 100 years
