news from indonesia

As we know that on the 26th Dec there was an earthquake and Tsunami in Aceh Indonesia.The disaster was very terrible. According  the report of the Social Department on 26th Jan 2005 there were reported 291,271 confirmed dead and still more missing. But after the report even until nowadays there were still many dead being found in the ruin and on the seashore. Padang is the cement factory where about 600 people work, almost all the people were missing,  only 20 people are still alive. One of the private hospital all the patients, nurses and doctors were swept away.

Was it the  same as the Noah flood ? As Jesus said in Mat 24, that it is one of the signals of the coming of  Jesus Christ ?

The Tsunami was very terrible, the water about 10 m high and it was very vast about 700 km per hour near the coast, and the water went far away about 140 km from the seashore.

Comment. Brother Sigit sent me several ghastly pictures with heaps of decomposing bodies, which stuck in my mind for days. Initially we intended to print them, but decided not to.
