A great 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit 66 km NNE of Awaran, Pakistan, on September 24, 2013, at 11:29:48 UTC, at a depth of 20.0 km (12.4 mi), reported USGS.

Three sizable aftershocks hit Pakistan, since the 7.7 magnitude quake, two 5.5 magnitude quakes and one 5.9, reported CSEM-EMSC.

The great 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit a remote area of Pakistan, which still caused 45 deaths, as per the latest count. The great quake was so powerful it caused a small island to rise up out of the sea about 600 yards off Pakistan's Gwadar coast at the Arabian Sea. Houses were destroyed in the area of the epicenter, Baluchistan.

Abdul Qadoos, deputy speaker of the Baluchistan assembly, told Reuters that at least 30 percent of the homes in the Awaran district had caved in.

Chief secretary Babar Yaqoob said earlier that 25 people had been injured and that the death toll was expected to increase, as many people appeared to be trapped inside their collapsed homes, reported MSN News.

132 major to great (6.0+) earthquakes hit various places over the last 238 days. Among these were 15  7.0+ and 2  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 33 months, there have been at least 351 major to great (6.0+) earthquakes reported on this site.

Major to great magnitude earthquakes have increased to one about every two days on average during the last seven months. This is unprecedented and certainly fulfills last days Bible prophecy.    

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.
