NIV Hebrews 12:25-26
25. See to it that you do not refuse him who speaks. If they did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, how much less will we, if we turn away from him who warns us from heaven?
26. At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, "Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens."
NIV Revelation 11:13
At that very hour there was a severe earthquake and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.

NIV Matthew 24:4-8
4. Jesus answered: "Watch out that no one deceives you.
5. For many will come in my name, claiming, `I am the Christ, ' and will deceive many.
6. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.
7. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.
8. All these are the beginning of birth pains.

Southern England is sinking while the northern part is rising from the glacier that was parked there during the Ice Age. Think ‘rebound,’it’s been going on for 8-10,000 years.
