  • Earthquakes in the Lord’s Day
    Revelation—Its Grand Climax At Hand!
    • 1, 2. (a) What is it like to live through a severe earthquake? (b) What does John describe when the sixth seal is opened?

      HAVE you ever lived through a severe earthquake? It is not a pleasant experience. A big temblor may start with a sickening roll and a rumbling noise. The swaying may worsen by fits and starts while you dash for safety​—perhaps under a desk. Or it may come as a sudden, shattering jolt, followed by the crashing of crockery, furnishings, even buildings. Damage may be catastrophic, with frequent aftershocks inflicting further damage and adding to the misery.

    Revelation—Its Grand Climax At Hand!
    • a Literal earthquakes are often preceded by seismic disturbances that cause dogs to bark or act skittishly and excite other animals and fish, though humans may be unsuspecting until the actual quake strikes.​—See Awake!, July 8, 1982, page 14.
