Is there anything that defines an “act of God” better, than moving the earth 11 feet to the right?
Experts think that a new fault was created with this earthquake that had amazing movement, normally earthquakes move a matter of inches.
Matthew 24:7 – “For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.”
More birth pains….

NZ quake creates a new fault-line
The New Zealand earthquake that smashed buildings, cracked roads and twisted railway lines has ripped an 11ft wide fault-line in the Earth.
Mark Quigley, a Canterbury University geology professor, said yesterday what “could be a new fault” had ripped across the planet and pushed up some surface areas.
The quake was caused by the continuing collision between the Pacific and Australian tectonic plates, said Prof Quigley. “One side of the earth has lurched… up to 11 feet,” he told New Zealand’s National Radio. “We saw two houses that were snapped in half.”
At least 500 buildings were damaged and around 90 are likely to be destroyed by the 7.1-magnitude quake that struck before dawn on Saturday, 13 miles west of Christchurch on the South Island.
