Everything is happening as prophesied in Bible

  Climate change has been ongoing since the flood of Noah, recorded in the Bible. Something catastrophic happened to the earth resulting in the earth being knocked off its axis, off its orbit, being split and cracked, being inundated with water from above and from within.  Volcanoes and earthquakes continue to this day because of a probable strike by a huge meteor  or collision with another planet. One only has to study the topography of the earth to know this to be true. 
 The atmosphere around our earth was disrupted and changed forever. Initially, the earth wobbled horribly causing  huge tides which threw up deserts of sand. Water froze to great depths and over vast areas. According to Genesis it took a year for the earth to settle  down, for water to pool and land to emerge and  dry.
  But the Bible is no longer relevant and is not being studied in schools. The Bible is unique in that if read and studied regularly, it will gradually  reveal its secrets– God’s secrets- about the origins of the universe, the social development of mankind, beliefs, failures, rise and fall of nations, prophecies for the future,etc.
Jesus, a historical figure, is no longer studied.  He had much to say about the very issues we are facing today.  In Matthew 24 (NKJV) His words are recorded about what future generations would face. His disciples wanted to know ” When will these things be?  And what will be the sign of your coming and the end of the  age?”
Jesus told them — many would be deceived about Christ’s teachings and His re- appearance;  wars and rumors of war; nations and kingdoms rising against each other; famines; pestilences; and earthquakes in various places.  He adds one thing that is overlooked:  All these things are the beginning of sorrows.  The Rabbis referred to sorrows as birth pains. What happens in labor?  The pains increase in frequency and intensity. And they have over the past 2 millennia.  Wars have increased in intensity (WWW I and II), widespread  drought and famine; earthquakes daily; Volcanoes; and erratic weather patterns.  Pestilences include the seen- birds, locusts and grasshoppers and the unseen– bacteria and viruses– world encompassing pandemics. 
In Luke 21 Jesus expands His teaching- V25  And there will be  signs in the sun, moon and stars.”  Alberta, B.C have in the past year has seen several meteors fall to earth. He continues: ”
And on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity ( a state of doubt, confusion and bewilderment), the sea and the waves roaring; men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of heaven will be shaken.” 
This is all true today.  Our government leaders are in panic mode at the behest of the scientific community – Our earth’s temperature is warming too rapidly because industry and mankind have infused our atmosphere with smoke and poisonous gasses!  If we don’t do something all mankind will perish.  No where in the teachings of Jesus does He teach that mankind is at risk of elimination. But if the Bible is carefully studied, one can discover and  learn what will happen to the earth and all people. 
  Can mankind stop Volcanoes from spewing forth their lethal gasses?  Can we stop earthquakes from happening?  Can we stop permafrost or  polar caps from thawing? Can we change the weather patterns: decrease the intensity and frequency of the storms?  Mankind is but a puny part and player  on the earth and earth is a tiny part of an  immense universe. 
  Jesus promised His disciples He would return -one day- soo – from somewhere in the universe.He said to be alert and watch. . He would return to the earth a second time  and would be seen in the clouds.  There is no need to panic.  Everything is happening as it was prophesied.
