[Fundies have been discussing the earthquake that recently struck New Zealand.]
Hi, Jo from NZ here. I'm used to earthquakes, but this one is significant. The 6.6 earthquake that struck on the 16 Aug 2013 that was felt strongly in our capital Wellington was centered at a place called Seddon.

17 Aug 2013 It came to me during my Bible reading on Saturday morning that Seddon was a sign, and a warning. The town of Seddon is named after Richard Seddon, New Zealand’s longest serving Prime Minster (from 1893 to 1906). There is a prominent statue of Richard Seddon right outside NZ’s Parliament Buildings, where he is pointing to the sky. Seddon has come to represent the authority of the government in NZ.

Who grants the government that authority? God. It is written “By me kings reign and rulers issue decrees that are just” Proverbs 8:15. The government here in NZ has gone outside of its mandated authority.

On the 19 Aug 2013 the Marriage Amendment Act becomes law. The Marriage Amendment Act has changed traditional marriage from a man and woman to include same sex marriage. It was pushed through under urgency, without a referendum, without a mandate from the majority of New Zealanders. During the time it was going through parliament the country suffered a drought in both islands, the worst in 70 years.

Even though marriage is a covenant that God ordained to be between a man and a woman, and it is by God that rulers issue decrees, our government and media thinks they know better. Now Seddon, representing the authority of the government in New Zealand, is being shaken.

Its too late to recall the Marriage Amendment law but please pray for us as a nation as NZ is now under judgement.
