What specific part will earthquakes play as part of this phrophecy? What [b]exactly are you looking for with regard to earthquakes?[/b]

Maybe none but other then the fact that they will be noticed more ALONG with the other signs Jesus detailed. It's part of a COMPOSITE sign, not a singular event.

But there are and will always be earthquakes due to the nature of the forces involved in plate tectonics. Not a very insightful prophecy then, he might as well have i said 'i'll be back when the wind blows'.

Let's look as this prophecy then -

Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.

We have been at war with each other ever since we could make weapons.

There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

I could tell you that.

All in all it's about as vague as you can get, it's as insightful as me telling you a team from America will win the next Superbowl.

not quite there has never been a global war prior to the first world war.

Did not Jesus say that we should not be alarmed by
these things for they must take place?
Notice, verses 4 & 5, where Jesus says, "See to it
that no one misleads you. For many will come in
MY name, saying, I am the Christ and will mislead
many". Verse 8, "but all these things are merely
the beginning of birth pangs". Read on to see the
real prophecy.

And there was even a bigger one called WW 2!!!! And with even a small country like Libya right now, how many countries are involved in that one?
You can white wash it all you want but anyone with his eyes open would not agree with you. You angle is you will not accept God or his ability to know the future and to have control over our futures. So unless you ever allowed that reality to be seen, you'll never admit to his prophicies being real and alive.

So when's the big man turning up then?

Advances in technology made that happen. Prior to 1492 there was no chance of a global war because people didn't know other civilisations existed on the other side of the planet.

So you agree with me that there has always been war throughout history, and very few days without war somewhere on earth. I looked at some of the links on that site. Plenty of wars several hundred years ago, and that's only the ones that are documented. If you take into account that documentation is a lot more comprehensive today, it's not at all clear that there are more wars today than there have been at other times. Yes, you now have wars involving several continents which simply wasn't possible before, but there have been wars before that involved several countries and big areas and that were extremely destructive (the Thirty Years' War probably being the most prominent example).

As I've said one either sees it and gets it or one doesn't or doesn't want to. ..... but just not aware of the obvious.
So the detailed facts and numbers you want are not needed as it may not convince anyway.

You keep saying it is obvious or similar phrases, but:
1. You seem totally incapable of pointing out the obvious, instead you keep referring us to here say and lists of how many people you have heard talking to you in the last few months.
2. You claim that despite it being obvious, some of us are for some reason bared from seeing it. That somewhat contradicts the claim that it is obvious - though I see it is really an attempt at laying the blame on me for not seeing.

The truth is, that if you want to see signs badly enough, you will see them. But if you are incapable of explaining what those signs are to others then you can be sure they are an illusion of your own making.

No that is completely not true especially with humans. If for whatever reason we refuse to see the obvious, we don't see it or at least convience ourselves it's not real and obvious. Again the Bible speaks of many not seeing.
Lol. And these signs did not just start a few months ago and I don't beliveve I said that either. If you could see them with a clear and spiritual mind you'd see how obvious they are. I can't help you there.

How does it make you feel seeing these (alleged) signs?
