In Luke 21:25, Jesus said:
"And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;"
Is the Olivet Discourse protraying flooding? It is debatable but how do we explain 500 year flooding in the midwest in just 2 decades - 1993 and now? As an engineer I can tell you that these terms are just statistics. A 100 year flood frequency means there is only a 1% chance this level of water will occur in any year, whereas, a 500 year means a 0.2% chance of happening in any year. The point is the chance is extremely small! So, it can be argued that these are unusual times.
Bill Koenig believes there is a connection between our pressuring of Israel (the apple of God's Eye) and clamatic events in the US:
"Inside the White House - An unbelievable nine-days of news since Olmert’s White House visit....Mississippi River flood could be worst than the historic flood of the summer of 1993, which coincided with the Oslo peace talks between the Israelis and the Palestinians...US on pace for record number of tornadoes, record heat, record oil prices, record corn and wheat prices, and record earthquake swarms...."

I tend to agree with his views but don't want to be dogmatic about it and try to force this view on everything that happens. God allows these events to happen for varying reasons for both individual and corporate teaching, I believe!
Regardless, I feel it is all part of the end of end times scenario playing itself out like "birth pangs" of child birth, which eventually become more frequent and more intense as the event nears!
Look Up because your redemption draweth nigh!!!!!!!
