Luke 21:25-26 Part 2 of 2

"And there will be strange signs in the sun, moon, and stars. And here on earth the nations will be in turmoil, perplexed by the roaring seas and strange tides. People will be terrified at what they see coming upon the earth, for the powers in the heavens will be shaken."

"People will be terrified at what they see coming upon the earth, for the powers in the heavens will be shaken."
Isaiah 34:4  The heavens above will melt away and disappear like a rolled-up scroll. The stars will fall from the sky like withered leaves from a grapevine, or shriveled figs from a fig tree. (see verses 1-4)
Matthew 24:29  "Immediately after the anguish of those days (verses 15-28), the sun will be darkened, the moon will give no light, the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken." (see verses 26-31)
2 Peter 3:10-13  But the day of the LORD will come as unexpectedly as a thief. Then the heavens will pass away with a terrible noise, and the very elements themselves will disappear in fire, and the earth and everything on it will be found to deserve judgment. Since everything around us is going to be destroyed like this, what holy and godly lives you should live, looking forward to the day of God and hurrying it along. On that day he will set the heavens on fire, and the elements will melt away in the flames. But we are looking forward to the new heavens and new earth he has promised, a world filled with God's righteousness.
Revelation 6:13-14  Then the stars of the sky fell to the earth like green figs falling from a tree shaken by a strong wind. The sky was rolled up like a scroll, and all of the mountains and islands were moved from their places. (see verses 12-17)
Revelation 8:12  Then the fourth angel blew his trumpet, and one-third of the sun was struck, and one-third of the moon, and one-third of the stars, and they became dark. And one-third of the day was dark, and also one-third of the night. (see verses 6-13)
