Luke 21:25,26 NLT “And there will be strange signs in the sun, moon, and stars. And here on earth the nations will be in turmoil, perplexed by the roaring seas and strange tides. People will be terrified at what they see coming upon the earth, for the powers in the heavens will be shaken.”
“Catastrophic calamities are coming upon the earth, not one of these days in the distant future, but soon—now! Torrential rains, unsettling weather patterns, violent storms, floods, famines, droughts, earthquakes increasing in frequency and intensity, volcanic eruptions, and a host of other signs of the times Jesus told us to watch for are happening now.”
-Jim Bakker in “Prosperity and the Coming Apocalypse”
Heavy monsoon flooding in Pakistan has destroyed hundreds of thousands of homes and in one province more than 80% of the population has been forced to leave their homes and land.
Officials say that in the provinces of Balochistan and Sindh about 120,000 homes have been confirmed as destroyed and they are distributing tents to homeless families.
The government has also set up medical outposts to treat illnesses like malaria among the half million homeless.
The BBC reports that Balochistan is the country’s largest province but last in infrastructure and services. The area is also rampant with militant activities with the kidnapping threat so high most aid agencies avoid the area.
Food supplies are so low that many can only find one meal a day.
