China Earthquake 2010 (live)

Filed in News 25 comments







The quake, which struck at 7:49 am in Qinghai Province, had a magnitude of 7.1 according to Chinas earthquake administration. According to the China Earthquake Networks Center, the earthquake struck in Yushu County, a remote and mountainous area sparsely populated by farmers and herders, most of them ethnic Tibetans. The region is pocked with copper, tin and coal mines and rich in natural gas. A government Web site said the countys population was around 80000. The China Earthquake Networks Center said the epicenter was in Yushu County, a sparsely populated area that is home to farmers and herders, most of whom are ethnic Tibetans. China National Radio said that more than 80 percent of the homes in the area had collapsed but that schools and government buildings had largely remained standing. Karsum Nyima, an employee of a local television station in Yushu, told the national television broadcaster, CCTV, that the quake had sent people running into the streets. All of a sudden, the houses collapsed, he said. It was a terrible earthquake. In the park, a Buddhist pagoda fell down. Everyone is in the street in front of their houses. They are trying to find family members. In the same broadcast, Wu Yong, an officer in the Chinese Army, said that the road to the airport was impassable and that soldiers were digging out people from collapsed homes by hand. The most important thing now is that this place is far from everything, with few accessible rescue troops available, Mr. Wu

    To anyone who is genuinely interested in wanting to know why so many things are happening; earthquakes, volcano eruptions, flooding, blizzards and now more meteors hitting our earth there is an answer. The creator of the universe is speaking to us and warning us He is about to judge the world. Jesus is coming to establish God’s everlasting kingdom on earth. What’s happening right now is what our Lord Jesus calls the beginning of sorrows (Matt. 24:7). Keep watching the news and believe.

    Yes, there are many of you who may be offended and mad at my words of truth. Truth of the matter is it takes extraordinary, life changing circumstances to bring most people to an epiphany of self-realization, humility and unity. No man will be without excuse in the day they stand before God Almighty. Harden not your hearts, but believe on Jesus that he can save you. God is calling you. Peace to all.

  • alchemi000

    I am saddened that there is still so much tension between the Chinese and the Tibetans even in such a catastrophic calamity. But I am grateful to those people who put there differences and beliefs aside and just help with what matters most LIFE.

    Time4u2Believe…I think its time to show if you really are a “believer” by helping the Tibetan people right now. So if you really do believe in Jesus then do as he said…go and give all you have to help the earthquake victims…otherwise don’t waste space and time by posting such comments when you can go online and donate. peace to you.
