With the frequent burning of people, some alive, on that island, because of what is believed to be "witchcraft" performed by some, it wouldn't surprise me if the entire island fell into the sea.
Just last month, a young mother was stripped, doused with petrol and burned alive in front of a crowd, including school children and her own son, because she was suspected of witchcraft in Papua New Guinea. She was tortured with a branding iron first! The police did nothing to intervene, because they claimed they were "outnumbered." The police never intervene when this happens!
In January, another young woman accused of being a witch and giving one of her murderers AIDS, was stripped, bound to a stake and burned alive for being a "sorceress!" Many of the recent killings of women have been tied to the growing AIDS epidemic in PNG, reported The Telegraph.
Last month, an elderly woman was abducted and tortured with hot irons for three days, then burned. This month, six women were abducted and tortured, then an another elderly woman was beheaded.
There have been other cases of "witchcraft" and cannibalism reported in recent years in PNG. A man ate his newborn son during a sorcery initiation ceremony in 2011, reported Sky News.
The Word of God tells us of John's vision of the return of the Lord, "And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together and every mountain and island were removed out of their places" Revelation 6:14.
Right now, there are approximately 500 active volcanoes throughout the world (UniverseToday.com), not including those under the ocean. We frequently see the islands throughout the world shaken with great earthquakes, PNG, Solomon Islands, Santa Cruz Islands, Japan, Sandwich Islands, Grecian Islands, Indonesia, Kuril Islands, more than any other areas in the world.
There have been 54 major (>5.9) earthquakes in various places over the last 75 days, among which were seven 7+ and one 8.1 magnitude quakes!
Jesus said, "Great earthquakes shall be in diverse places, famines and pestilences and there shall be fearful sights and great signs from heaven" Luke 21:11.
During the previous 28 months, there have been at least 273 major (>5.9) earthquakes reported on this site.
Jesus said these signs would appear before He returns, "Nation will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, pestilences and earthquakes in diverse places" Matthew 24:7.
Jesus also said, "Blessed are those servants whom the Master, when He comes, will find watching" Luke 12:37.
