deja vu all over again: war, earthquake, and famine - signs Jesus is coming back

Franklin Graham and Sarah Palin
at Graham's Samaritan's Purse relief op in Haiti

"God is not behind every storm"  Rev. Franklin Graham - son of evangelist Billy Graham says.  "I believe in the devil" who roiled the Sea of Galilee. He also thinks the earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan might mean that Jesus is returning to earth sooner rather than later.
Graham said that Jesus told his followers that increasing war, famine, and earthquakes were one of the signs of the second coming.  "Maybe this is, I don't know. But regardless, all of us need to be prepared to stand before almighty God," Graham said.
As he explained, an increase in natural disasters was just like how "as a woman gives birth to a child, those labor pains as they begin they start intensifying with more frequency."
The relief efforts that Graham' s Samaritan's Purse undertakes are admirable.  But I confess it astonishes me that there are people who actually take this apocalypse now stuff seriously.  - gwc
