THE SUN, SOLAR FLARES, AND TSUNAMIS

by Craig Peters

And there will be signs in the sun, and in the moon,

and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations,
with perplexity—the sea and the waves roaring: Men’s hearts
failing them for fear, and for apprehension of those things which
are coming upon the earth: for the powers of heaven will be shaken.
Luke 21:25-26
This brief article will highlight how electromagnetic eruptions from the Sun,
magnificent explosions which we call solar flares, or coronal mass ejections,
affect the Earth and, specifically, how they galvanize the lava under the Earth’s
crust. Surges in this molten magma, in turn, result in earthquakes, volcanoes, and
tsunamis. It must also be noted that, as we present this information, none of the
deaths in Japan are taken lightly by this writer, and what he wrote after the Indian
Ocean tsunami 1 applies also to the people of Japan:
“Before we continue, let it be said we do not take lightly the widespread death
and destruction which occurred from the December 26, 2004 earthquake and the
resulting tsunamis throughout the numerous islands and countries of Asia. The
death of even one individual is an extremely great loss as no value can be placed
on the potential and worth of just one human being. Only the Creator can bring
eventual restitution to those whose lives were lost, and we fully expect He will do
that very thing in the eons yet to come.2 The Most High Creator works all things
after the counsel of His sovereign will3 and we assert none of those who died in
this disaster have either lived or died in vain. Justice for man comes from hwhy,4
and He will surely use this great catastrophe to further His Kingdom in the lives of
those people in the resurrection. Only the One who kills and who makes alive5
could ever bring true and full restitution over such great loss, and He will
vindicate His great Name in and over every life of every person who has ever
lived. We have the assurance that …
…“as in Adam all men die, even so in
the Messiah shall all be made alive.”
1Corinthians 15:22

Acts 3:21. hwhy will eventually restore all things; He will make all things new. Revelation 21:5 This
renewal, we assert, is a long-range plan which will omit absolutely no one. John 12:32, Romans 5:17-19,
1Corinthians 15:22, Ephesians 1:9-10, Colossians 1:19-20

Proverbs 29:26

1Samuel 2:6

In the ages to come, eswhy will surely fulfill His great promise to draw all men to
Himself.6 However, this amazing promise does not gloss over the present need for
hwhy to bring severe judgment against a carnal world which is so rapidly
degenerating through open depravity and staunch rebellion against the Law of His
Kingdom. It is this Heavenly Judgment which comprises “the Day of hwhy,” and
it is this approaching wrath which we must necessarily address in the present
commentary. In doing so, we provide a most somber warning for all those who
are still willing to listen and to respond.”
And now we move on to the present article.

First X-Class Flare of the New Solar Cycle = Quake Watch!
The molten lava of the earth is magnetized, so even though
spaceweather.com won’t tell us this, an X-Class flare will galvanize
the earth’s magma in some measure. We will watch and pray for
the deliverance of YHWH upon His people everywhere, as this
event could trigger a major quake/volcano/tsunami at some locale.
YHWH is Great,

MAJOR FLARE: Earth-orbiting satellites have detected the strongest solar flare in more than four years.
At 0156 UT on Feb. 15th, giant sunspot 1158 unleashed an X2-class eruption. X-flares are the strongest
type of x-ray flare, and this is the first such eruption of new Solar Cycle 24. The explosion that produced
the flare also sent a solar tsunami rippling through the sun's atmosphere and, more importantly, hurled a
coronal mass ejection toward Earth. This raises the possibility of geomagnetic storms in the days ahead.

Since this Feb. 15, 2011 eruption was an X-class solar flare—the largest in over
four years—it was felt that the warning was justified. Within the week, the
Christchurch, New Zealand quake (Feb. 22) left many dead.
But since so few responded to that e-mail message, and since I have no use for
being a “Henny-Penny,” or for being a thorn in people’s sides, when
Spaceweather.com sent out another solar flare alert on 3/9/2011, no e-mail
warning was publicized. However, this latest message from Spaceweather.com
was alerting their subscribers of the second X-class solar flare in less than one
month. The latter of the two flares erupted from the Sun on March 9th and
subsequently created geomagnetic earth-storms on March 10-11.7 While not
sending out any e-mail on March 9th, that evening I did mention to my wife to be
on the lookout since this event might well trigger a fairly large earthquake some
place in the world. A day-and-a-half later the 8.9 quake struck Japan, followed by
the tragic and devastating tsunami. As many will already know, this was the fifth
largest quake in recorded (seismographic) history.
Yet this is not the first time the author has noted such cause and effect: A similar
prediction was made some years earlier when a large solar eruption was about to
strike the Earth: After hearing of inbound solar radiation from a CME,8 and
having warned my wife of the high possibility of a large, pending quake (we lived
in Los Angeles at the time), the very next day a magnitude 8.3 earthquake hit the
Kuril Islands on 11/15/2006, only there was no tsunami following that tremor.
Further, the SWIFT Observatory detected large GRBs (gamma ray bursts) inbound
from deep space9 right around the time of the Indian Ocean quake and tsunami.
Many other major quakes have been seen following certain times the Sun’s energy
strikes Earth’s atmosphere.
What is it About the Sun and Electromagnetic Radiation?
How is it that the Earth’s magma is affected by the Sun’s electromagnetic
radiation? And how do we know the Earth’s magma is itself magnetic? Of
course, the North and South poles give evidence of the internal magnetism within
our planet, but there is actually a true-life story which shows all of the magma
under the Earth’s crust has magnetic properties:
A number of years ago, a video was seen which documented the Mount St.
Helen’s eruption. That video displayed sobering footage from the aftermath of
this most destructive volcanic eruption. And part of the presentation highlighted a
team of scientists who were transported into the Mount St. Helen’s eruption zone
not long after this earth-changing event had occurred. Unfortunately, it was only

So unusually bright were the energized auroras that spaceweather.com published reports about the
luminosity of the Northern Lights and eyewitnesses who said the light of the Aurora Borealis was
competing with the light of campfires in Sweden.
8
(i.e., coronal mass ejection)
9
(so this was not from the Sun)

3
after the transport helicopter had flown away that this team discovered their
compasses had been rendered useless by the sea of magnetic volcanic ash which
surrounded them: For as far as one could see, it was a grey, desolate landscape,
and now their only means of navigation had been taken away. The team soon
realized they were in dire straits. Thankfully, the lost scientists were found around
three days later; but they were exhausted, burned on their lower extremities, and
rapidly nearing the point of fatal dehydration. We are glad to say they survived,
but this story shows us the Earth’s magma is clearly magnetized.
So when a CME is hurled from the Sun to the Earth, the electromagnetically
charged particles stir up the magnetic fields emanating from the North and South
Poles. And the supercharged magnetic Earth-fields then energize/pull upon the
magnetized molten lava. Being galvanized, the lava surges upward in response.
Thus, whether directly, or indirectly, or both, the Sun’s radiation affects the
magnetic magma under the crust of the Earth. Of course, surges in the molten
magma will result in volcanoes, earthquakes, and even tidal waves. The Messiah
was a prophet of the Most High, and He forewarned us that convulsions in the
heavens would greatly affect the conditions on Earth:
And there will be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars;
and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity—the sea and the waves
roaring: Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for apprehension of those things
which are coming upon the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
Luke 21:25-2610
Much evidence shows that this Scripture has now become a formidable and
growing reality: The Chaiten Volcano, dormant for some 6,000 years, erupted in
Chile in 2008; many other volcanoes are erupting and/or showing signs of activity,
including the super cauldron of Yellowstone; major earthquakes are becoming
more and more frequent; and other planets show signs of being affected/energized
by the Sun’s electromagnetic radiation. Evidence of the latter statement is seen in
the major storms being spawned on other planets as well as their global warming.
And we note this global warming on other planets is quite apart from any
“greenhouse gases” that are purportedly contributing to the Earth’s global
warming. The truth is: As the Sun’s output of electromagnetic activity continues
to surge, and as its number of CMEs increase in size and intensity, a number of the
planets in our solar system are heating up; they are showing signs of increasing
temperatures and atmospheric upheavals. This is all due to the activity spawned
by the Sun’s growing electromagnetic energy!
Further, while unrecognized, or more likely, while
intentionally unacknowledged, these electromagnetic forces
radiating from the Sun are acting upon the magnetized magma of the

10
Other prophets spoke likewise: Haggai 2:6-7, Hebrews 12:26-27.

4
 Earth’s core. Because the magma is being pulled upward,
the Earth is warming up from the inside out!
And this is where those who study global warming so greatly err: They are failing
to study (or to openly admit) the heightened electromagnetic activity in the Sun
and the effects which this is having on the inner core of our planet! Bible
prophecy shows these intense electromagnetic surges in the Sun will soon cause
magma/lava to erupt forth from the Earth’s crust in proportions sufficient to not
only destroy cities but, quite likely, even entire nations. We believe we are seeing
more and more cosmically-generated earthquakes—quakes caused by the Earth’s
magma surging upward in response to electromagnetic energy from the Sun. The
changes now taking place in the Sun were prophesied,11 and hwhy warns they will
result in “pillars of smoke”12 as a multiplicity of volcanoes and massive, magma-
driven earthquakes become commonplace across the globe, ripping open the
ground, destroying nations,13 and blackening the skies in cataclysmic ways never
before seen by modern man. And we anticipate tsunamis which are much more
powerful and far more destructive than those already seen across the last eight
years. In the days of Noah, the wrath of hwhy was poured out on the world as
water came from above and below to destroy the Earth.14 In these Last Days, fire
will be the agent of His wrath, and this burning judgment will come from above
and below to destroy those who violate His Law:15
Behold, hwhy makes the earth empty, and makes it waste,
and turns it upside down,16 and scatters abroad the inhabitants thereof …
3 The earth will be utterly emptied, and utterly laid waste, for hwhy has spoken
this word. 4 The earth mourns and fades away, the world languishes and fades
away, the haughty people of the earth will languish. 5 The earth also is defiled
under its inhabitants; because they have transgressed the Laws, violated the
statutes, broken the everlasting covenant. 6 Therefore, the curse has devoured
the earth, and they that dwell therein are found guilty: therefore the
inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.
Isaiah 24:1-6 17
The current increase in solar activity is not only something which will play a
major role in worldwide, apocalyptic cataclysms, but this intense heat from
the Sun (now only just beginning) is something which has long been prophesied to
occur. For centuries, the Hebrew prophets have warned that the Sun’s heat will

intensify to a level which can only be described as “apocalyptic.” As this is now
starting to occur, we are witnessing the incipient stages of what will soon become
an immense apocalypse:
And the fourth poured out his bowl upon the Sun;
and it was given to it to burn men with fire.
Revelation 16:8
The days are not long hence that hwhy will destroy the Earth and cleanse it by
fire.18 This is the same burning indignation we see prophesied by the apostles.19
Yet this fiery wrath was not a new concept even in the days of eswhy and His
apostles. For we see this great, burning indignation predicted well over 2000
years ago by the prophets of hwhy:20
Upon the wicked He will rain snares—
Fire, and brimstone, and a scorching wind
will be the portion of their cup.
Psalm 11:6
hwhy also spoke of the ongoing availability of the Sun to bring forth His wrath on
the disobedient: While looking back at the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah,
He ultimately spoke of the Day when the Sun’s intense heat would be invoked to
completely destroy the unrepentant from off the face of the entire Earth.21 This
will be the Ultimate Day of hwhy spoken of by the Almighty through the prophet
Malachi:
For behold, the day comes that will burn as an oven;
and all the proud, yes, and all that do wickedly, will be stubble:
and the day that comes will burn them up, says hwhy of hosts,
that it will leave them neither root nor branch.
Malachi 4:1
Since our world is about to be cleansed by fire, anyone with spiritual common
sense, should be contemplating how to best prepare the heart and the mind:
10 But the Day of hwhy will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will
pass away with a great noise,22 and the elements will be dissolved with fervent
heat, and the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. 11 Seeing that
these things are, thus, all to be dissolved, what manner of persons should you be in

the Day of Elohim, by reason of which the heavens—being on fire—will be
dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat? 2Peter 3:10-12
The Earth has never been cleansed by fire in a manner comparable to the cleansing
by water which occurred globally during the Flood, but this fiery judgment is now
about to occur: “Global warming” is only the beginning of the end.
Judgment is Now Looming Large on the Horizon
eswhy the Messiah indicated the End Time destruction is something which all
mankind will see and acknowledge, yet most will do so with faithless fear:
And there will be signs in the Sun, and in the Moon, and in the stars;
and upon the earth distress of nations, in bewilderment at the roaring of the sea
and the waves; men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those
things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven will be shaken.
Luke 21:25-26
The reality of global warming, along with the growing number of apocalyptic
cataclysms, should provide the believer with sobering, tangible evidence that
Pending Judgment now looms large on the horizon. The Day of hwhy is the Day
of His Wrath, and it will be a period of time in which the Sun is used to destroy
the lawless and unrepentant out of the Earth.23 It is the time period in which hwhy
will arise to put an end to the flagrant, worldwide violation of His Torah.24 This is
why the judgments from hwhy on high shall be so devastating, so severe, so
widespread, and so unrelenting:
A Righteous Creator will only allow unrighteousness
to go unanswered for so long; after which time, He will forever
avenge His people and His Land25 with worldwide, catastrophic
upheavals foretold many centuries ago in the Apocalypse.26
hwhy well knows about the Sun’s current rise in heat and intensity, and as we have
seen, He is about to use the Sun and the stars to punish those who have refused to
repent of violating His immutable Torah.27 The Sun and the stars will be used by
hwhy of Hosts to send forth fire, brimstone,28 and pestilence upon those who have
violated His immutable Law. Massive, magma-driven earthquakes and
indescribable, destructive tidal waves will destroy large portions of the Earth,
while molten lava from volcanoes29 will be used by hwhy to burn and cleanse great
land masses and to further punish the unrepentant.

 A Few Closing Thoughts
We agree with those who say the rise in the Sun’s temperature is not enough to
be warming the Earth. However, it is not just the infrared heat of the Sun which is
warming the Earth: it is mainly the electromagnetic radiation from our star which
is energizing and acting upon the molten core of the Earth. As a result, heat and
pressure are increasingly emanating upward from the inner pulsations of the
Earth’s magnetized magma! Thus, global warming is occurring from inside of the
Earth. And the more this lava surges upward from the Earth’s core, the more
earthquakes, volcanoes,30 and tidal waves we will see. The Sun’s electromagnetic
activity is also affecting other planets in a similar way, and we suspect science
will show this electromagnetic radiation is especially making changes in those
celestial bodies whose cores consist of magnetized magma.
Through the prophet Amos, hwhy has solemnly warned:
Behold, the eyes of the Sovereign hwhy are upon the sinful
kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; except that
I will not utterly destroy the House of Ya’acob, says hwhy.
Amos 9:8
As His great wrath is made known on all the nations of the Earth, our only refuge
will be dwelling in His Presence; only by drawing near to His Throne of favor,
through the blood of the Messiah, may we be hidden in the Day of His anger:
20 Come, My people, enter into your chambers, and shut your
doors about you; hide yourself just for a little moment, until the
indignation is past. 21 For behold, hwhy comes out of His place
to visit the iniquity of the inhabitants of the earth upon them; and
the earth shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.
Isaiah 26:20-21
Seek hwhy, all you meek of the land, who have performed
His ordinance; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may
be you will be hidden in the day of the anger of hwhy.
Zephaniah 2:3
We pray many will heed His Word and repent. And we pray many will have
hearts which are prepared for the soon-coming Kingdom of hwhy.
