The Earth seems to be experiencing Birth Pans (Pangs); a sign of the beginning of the last day events? 542 - 16 - 5

With thanks to AMG International, Inc. Word Study, Pangs (H2152) “A feminine noun meaning burning heat. This word occurs only three times in the Old Testament. In two of the locations, the literal usage of this word is implied. In Lam_5:10, Jeremiah explains the hunger pangs as the burning heat of famine. In Psa_11:6, David describes how God will pour out His wrath with this burning heat, along with fire and brimstone. In Psa_119:53, the psalmist speaks figuratively about his righteous, burning zeal on account of those who forsake God's law.”

Luke 21:11, "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, "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;"

Hebrews 24:6-8, "And ye shall hear of  see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows (G5604)."

Sorrows, Strong’s G5604, Akin to G3601; a pang or throe, especially of childbirth: - pain, sorrow, travail.

Diseases such as polio and smallpox are threatening a resurgence as more unvaccinated illegals pour across the American border. Now if there were not enough problems with plagues occurring throughout the world, the CDC has added to the mix. “CDC: Up to 86 workers possibly exposed to anthrax.”

As for signs in the sky, there was a blood moon during this year’s Passover and three more will occur, one more in 2014 and two and 2015 all falling on Jewish feast days. Add to that there have been a number of solar flares, fortunately none seem to have done serious damage to her satellites to date.
At this time the hurricane season has been slow, one blessing.
Wars and rumors of war, the ISIS is raging through Iraq and murdering masses. Rockets were fired into Israel from Gaza and Israel retaliated. Russia is flexing her muscles and so much more.  

Having experienced childbirth pains firsthand, they do increase in frequency and severity until they build up to a crescendo. And then the child comes forth. So come Lord Jesus, please!
