Strong Undersea Earthquake in Indonesia

Luke 21:11 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.

Indonesia was struck by a strong undersea earthquake on Wednesday but there were no reports of immediate injuries or damage.

No tsunami warning was issued.

The U.S. Geological Survey registered the quake at magnitude 6.6.  The epicenter was 85 miles northwest of Ternate, the capital of the North Maluku province.  It was 25 miles deep.

Ternate residents said they felt strong jolts from the quake but no buildings were destroyed despite swaying.

Indonesia is prone to earthquakes because of their position on the Pacific Ring of Fire.
