The Soon Coming Judgment Of God Upon America and How To Escape It 532
Prior to the Jews returning to Israel, there had never been more than two of these
earthquakes in a thirty-year period with the highest death toll of any of these two quakes being
160,000. Starting in 1920 and ending in1950 there were six earthquakes with death tolls of over
50,000 (300% more than had ever occurred in any previous thirty-year period). These
earthquakes killed an estimated 783,000 people. In the eighty-nine years since the Jews began to
return to Israel there has been a total of eleven earthquakes killing over 50,000 people each
(that’s 47.8% of the total of all these earthquakes over the past 1,100 years).
1959
Based on probability, one would expect 1 or 2 earthquakes with 50,000 or more deaths
since 1917. Killer earthquakes are definitely on the increase but they are increasing in diverse
places as well (see Table 20-1).

Earthquakes of magnitude 6.0 or greater are destructive earthquakes. They can cause
major property damage and death. These type of earthquakes began to show a statistically
significant increases around 1930. In the 40-year period ending in 1970 there was a 100%
increase in the number of destructive earthquakes compared to the previous 40-year period. But
since 1970 these quakes have shot off the scale. In the 35-year period ending in 2005 there were
2,787 earthquakes magnitude 6.0 or greater compared to 18 for the previous 40-year period. This
is an increase of 17,595 percent (see Table 21-2).
