23 whales died in Tasmania Harbor, three have been saved and further attempts are being made to save more whales.
 Rescue attempts are being made to prevent more whales from being stranded near shores in Tasmania, Australia.  Using boat engine thrust to chase whales, two sperm whales and one minke have been redirected out of Tasmania's Macquarie Harbor to the safety of the open sea.  Three more whales, two sperm and a minke, remained trapped a long way from the harbor's entrance.  Twenty-three whales, 22 sperm whales and one minke, have already perished.  Too big to bury, the whales will be left to decompose naturally.  Scientists will do tests to in an attempt to determine why the whales came so close to shore.  Monday's weather worsened with gale force winds, which hampered the ongoing rescue, but there is still hope for those that remain trapped.  

 If you have been reading the reports, this is only one tragic incident.  Whales, dolphins, jellyfish, and fishes by the millions have died throughout the world, as well as thousands of birds which have dropped from the skies for "unknown reasons."  I can tell you why these bizarre events are taking place, the prophets told about this long ago:  "The fishers will mourn and all of them who cast angles into the brooks will lament, and those who spread nets upon the waters will languish" Isaiah 19:8.  "The land will mourn and everyone that dwells in it will languish, with the beasts of the field and the fowls of heaven, yes, the fishes of the sea will also be taken away" Hosea 4:3  The animals know instinctively what man fails to realize, because he doesn't read the Word of God and many want to have nothing to do with God.  "The field is wasted, the land mourns; the corn is wasted, the new wine is dried up and the oil languishes" Joel 1:10.  There will also be more famines throughout the world within a relatively brief period of time, not just in Asia and Africa, but in many places throughout the world.  Jesus said, "Watch and pray always that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass and stand before the Son of man (Jesus - Himself)" Luke 21:36.  The Lord will remove His people, only His people, from the wrath to come on the whole world; "Let no man deceive you with vain words, for because of these things (sin), the wrath of God will come on the children of disobedience (not God's people)" Ephesians 5:6.  Will you be saved from the wrath of God to come?  If you haven't received Jesus as your Lord and Savior, please visit the "How Can I Be Saved" page of this site.  God bless you.
