The USGS reports that a 3.5 magnitude earthquake hit 16 miles northwest of Covington, TN at 8:26 a.m. People near Memphis, Tenn. felt an natural disaster Tuesday morning, according to WREG, a CBS affiliate. The quake was shallow.

WREG-TV reports no damage in the area.

The New Madrid fault line is about twenty times larger than California’s famed San Andreas fault. The biggest earthquake in U.S. history happened in the New Madrid seismic zone in 1812.  The fault line has been more active over the last few years.

An natural disaster centered in eastern Arkansas rattled residents in multiple states in late October, making the quake the largest in the NMSZ in several years. Small earthquakes happen from time to time along the area. “Prehistoric earthquakes similar in size to those of 1811-1812 occurred in the middle 1400’s and around 900 A.D”. Officials told news “It is one of the most active natural disaster areas in the Southeast”.

University of Memphis natural disaster Center’s Gary Patterson also said he did not think an quake of this magnitude would likely cause much damage.

COULD THIS BE THE MONTH WHEN THE UN SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING A PALESTINIAN STATE IS ACTUALLY ADOPTED?

“For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth.”Isaiah 21:6 (KJV)

Despite all the hoopla surrounding the month of September regarding Bible prophecy, we here at NTEB do not see it as particularly important. However, jammed into the space of roughly 15 days, there is a ton of stuff going on that we would like to bring to your attention. What it ultimately will turn out to be remains to be seen, but in our job as a watchman on the wall, we are blowing the shofar and giving you the heads-up.

THE EVENTS FOR THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER ARE AS FOLLOWS:

September 11th – This year will be the 14th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks at the World Trade Center. There is a very good likelihood that somewhere either in America or where American interests are concerned that a Muslim terror attack will occur. Like it did in 2012 with the Muslim terror attacks on the American Consulate in Benghazi.

September 14th – Rosh Hashanah

September 15th – The Jade Helm military exercises are scheduled to end.

September 15th – The 70th session of the UN General Assembly begins on this date.  It has been widely reported that France plans to introduce a resolution which will give formal UN Security Council recognition to a Palestinian state shortly after the new session begins.  Up until now, the U.S. has always been the one blocking such a resolution, but Barack Obama has already indicated that things may be different this time around.  If alarm bells are going off in your head as you read this, then you probably already understand how significant this event could potentially be.
