This Was One of The Worst Quakes in Japan History

29 July, 2026: Although not nearly the largest earthquake Japan has ever experienced, this earthquake was only the 8th earthquake in history to max out Japan’s Seismic Intensity Scale. In Japan, earthquakes are also measured much like tornadoes are measured in the USA.

This earthquake maxed out the scale with a Shindo 7 score. That’s the highest score any earthquake can receive, regardless of the magnitude. Just like in America, we call a tornado an ‘F5’ due to the damage it causes, and no tornado can go any higher. Because this earthquake was not very deep at all underground, nearly every bit of the energy of this earthquake made it to the surface, magnifying the damage caused. There have only been 7 other earthquakes to cause this much damage.

Shindo 7 earthquakes means it was impossible to remain standing during the earthquake; people are thrown off balance or even tossed into the air. Most unsecured furniture shifts violently, topples over, or is thrown across the room. Even highly earthquake-resistant buildings can suffer severe damage. Structures with low earthquake resistance have a high probability of leaning or outright collapsing.

The Final Stages of The End Times

If you have noticed, I haven’t been writing this blog very much. It’s not that I’ve become bored, or changed my mind. It is simply the fact that times are happening with such furious speed, I simply can’t keep up with what stories to write about and what stories I can pass up. It’s just like trying to get a drink of water from a fire hose. There is just so much coming straight at us in this time, there is no doubt of what is happening. From signs in the sun and the moon, to the ongoing conflict with the very same group of people directly quoted in the Bible: There is little doubt we are on the road leading directly to the book of Revelation.

“There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. 26 People will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken – Luke 21:25-26 NIV

Let’s take a close look at this often quoted verse. Just a few days ago, a huge sunspot was located on the surface of the sun, resembling a hook. While others speculated what this supposed sign meant, relating the hook with being ‘caught up’, the first thing came to my mind was the quote of Jesus to his disciples: “I will make you fishers of men”.

“It’s just like trying to get a drink of water from a fire hose.”

“On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea.” We’ve heard this for the last few years, how climate change is attacking our coastlines, with conspiracy stories about how the ocean level will rise X amount of feet in a few years. And of course, it’s getting to the point where it isn’t safe to walk the streets in many of our biggest cities. In fact, even in rural areas crime is becoming more and more common, especially violent crime.

To make matters worse, our government actually covers up these statistics, giving us this false sense of peace in order to make us re-elect the same bunch of liars who did nothing for the last four years but stuff their wallets and bank accounts.

Between the Aurora Borealis becoming so common in the lower 48 states that no one bothers looking outside at night any more, and this week’s ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ arial event, we’re bored with all too common comet, planetary alignment, or rare moon phase event.

In Conclusion

There was a time when the United States Geological Survey (USGS) bent over backwards gas lighting us that everything we’re seeing is perfectly normal and we were imagining an increase in earthquakes. The truth of the matter is large, serious earthquakes just like the one we seen in Japan started to increase back in 1948. Coincidently, that was the year Israel became a nation. No, there wasn’t much coincidence at all. That began a countdown to the end times, and here we are in 2026, and the Bible is literally coming true not just on a daily basis, but multiple times a day.

Today in my Bible study, I’m on Isaiah chapter 17. Today, God shown me something in that chapter that I’d never noticed before. While Iran can’t even hold an intelligent conversation, they sure know how to blame everything, regardless how foolish on Israel. And today, as I read in Isaiah chapter 17:

Listen! The armies of many nations
roar like the roaring of the sea.
Hear the thunder of the mighty forces
as they rush forward like thundering waves.
13 But though they thunder like breakers on a beach,
God will silence them, and they will run away.
They will flee like chaff scattered by the wind,
like a tumbleweed whirling before a storm.
14 In the evening Israel waits in terror,
but by dawn its enemies are dead.
This is the just reward of those who plunder us,
a fitting end for those who destroy us. – Isaiah 17:12-14 NLT

This is a precipice; a prophecy happening right now, in real time. During the evening, Israel sits awake, watching the skies for the missiles of the terrorists and cowards. They wait in terror, just waiting for an air raid siren to make that mad dash to a shelter. But, before the morning comes, Israel responds, targeting the very enemies that fired at them during the night, and the morning news reports on the death of those who made the foolish decision to attack.

Do you want to see Bible prophecy come to pass? It is quite easy. Simply tune in to a live streaming service of any Israeli news feed. See with your own eyes the missiles that fly through the air, only to be shot down by advanced Israeli technology. Then wake up the next day and tune in to the same streaming services to hear about the retaliation Israeli Forces dealt out on their enemies.

This could very well be the last thing I ever post: If you wait until the rapture has occurred in order to make your decision for Christ, there is a very good chance you will not live to see the Second Coming of Christ. There is even a better chance that you will not be strong enough to withstand the pressures and tribulation you will experience. There will be enormous pressures on you to capitulate: deny Christ in order to take advantage of what the world will offer you. Imagine having money, but unless you knowingly deny Christ as the Messiah and worship the statue of a man, you will not be allowed to buy or sell.

You need to settle this in your mind one way or another: Either stop reading blogs like these and live it up while you can, or humble yourself and make a decision to prepare for the future. The Bible says that getting saved is a simple thing, and you can do it right here, right now. You don’t have to go to a church, talk to a preacher, or recite a long-winded ‘repeat after me’ prayer.

All you need is a little faith, and the ability to make a quality decision. If you are ready to be saved here is what you should do. First of all, read the prayer below out loud. Make sure you can hear yourself talking:

Heavenly Father, I confess that Jesus Is Lord: I believe he died for my sins on the cross and was raised from the dead on the third day according to scripture. Come into my life.

Make a decision that from now on, you believe the Bible is true. You believe in Jesus, and you believe he is the Messiah of God, and that he died on the cross and rose from the dead. That is your leap of faith right there. Believing is such a simple thing. You have been doing this all your life and not even realizing it. Your spouse once told you ‘I love you’, and you believed what they said, and eventually you trusted that love enough that you either asked them to marry you, or you said ‘yes’ when they asked.

And here is a scripture you should mark in your Bible. You should read it many, many times and remember it often. This is your receipt, your proof of purchase, not that you bought anything, but you have been bought, redeemed by the blood of Jesus who shed his blood that you might be saved.

This is the message of faith that we proclaim: 9 If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 One believes with the heart, resulting in righteousness, and one confesses with the mouth, resulting in salvation. – Romans 10:8-10 CSB
