Sound of Thunder Underground!

The sound of thunder was heard underground in Lisbon. Then, a violent shock threw down the greater part of the city. One minute later, 60,000 people lost their lives.

The sea reseeded into its boundary, then rolled in again, rising more than 50 f

People went about their daily routine unaware that an earthquake or Tsunami was about to strike. Mothers walked their children to school, fathers kissed their wives and children goodbye as they left for work, unaware that this was their last and that their worst nightmare was about to begin. Everything seemed normal. There was no indication or warning that the capital of Lisbon was about to be swallowed up into history.

Was it predicted?

It was predicted that there would be signs in the sun, moon, and stars and that the powers in heaven would be shaken. The sun would be black as sackcloth of hair, the moon as blood, and the stars will fall from heaven, indicating that the God of creation will soon appear for the second time. These prophecies were fulfilled before the nineteenth century. Then, in 1755 the most horrific earthquake ever recorded by mortal man took place, commonly known as the Lisbon earth.

It quaked mightily.

The earthquake extended to the greater part of Europe, Africa, and America. It was also felt in Greenland, The West Indies, Madeira, Norway, Sweden, Great Britain, and Ireland. It pervaded no less than four million square miles. The shock was almost as severe in Africa as it was in Europe. Algiers was almost destroyed. A village near Morocco, with approximately 10,000 people, was engulfed as a result of this earthquake. A large wave swept over Spain and Africa swallowing up cities and causing destruction to a great magnitude.

Most Affected.

Spain and Portugal were most affected by the extreme violence of the earthquake. The wave in Cadiz was sixty feet high, and the highest mountains in Portugal were shaken from their foundations some even opening up their summits. As these mountains split, large masses were thrown down into nearby valleys engulfing them in flames.

Unfortunately, a large number of people took shelter on a newly built marble quay, believing that they were beyond the reach of fallen ruins, but then suddenly, the quay sank and everyone perished. Not one dead body resurfaced.

It happened on a Holy day.

The earthquake came on a holy day. The churches and convents were filled with worshipers, hardly any one escaped as these large buildings and houses fell. Two hours later, fire broke out in a rage of violence that the city was completely desolated. The terror was indescribable. The people were terrified beyond tears. They ran in every direction, delirious with horror and astonishment! They beat their faces and breasts as they cried; ‘The world’s at an end!’

How could Mothers forget?

Mothers forgot their children while they ran with their crucifix images. Many ran to the churches for protection, but in vain! Images, priests, and people were all buried in the ruins of the city. It was estimated that, on the day, 90,000 people lost their lives.

The Dark Day.

In 1780, an unexplained phenomenon occurred. The whole visible heavens and atmosphere in New England was darkened. The Sun rose clear but soon it was overcast. Lighting flashed, thunder rolled, and a little rain fell. Then, a heavy black cloud spread over the entire sky only a few minutes later. Peoples’ minds were filled with awe, fear and anxiety. The day became so dark that people started returning from work. Candles were lit, fowls retired to their roosts, cattle gathered at the pasture bars, frogs croaked, birds sang their evenings songs, and bats flew about. However, people knew that night had not come! Ministers of the gospel knew that the darkness was supernatural and was a S
