A pastor in Europe has warned that a solar eclipse which will happen across the continent this Friday, March 20, could mean darker times and the ‘day of judgement’.
The timing of the eclipse, which comes a few weeks before a lunar eclipse, is apparently significant.
According to the claim made by Mark Blitz, the eclipse which is coinciding also with the spring equinox, the rare 'once in 100,000-year' event could indicate that trouble is brewing in Europe.
Reports say pastor Blitz made the claim for a Christian website,Root Source, in an interview with WorldNetDaily (WND).
The partial solar eclipse on Friday 20 March is itself fairly rare, as the last solar eclipse in Europe occurred back in 1999.
However, a few weeks later on 4 April, the third of four ‘blood moon’ lunar eclipses will take place, while it is also the first day of spring and the first day of the Jewish religious calendar.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the moon passes in the shadow of Earth, and appears red due to light refracting differently and hitting its surface.
"An event of this magnitude at the very beginning of the religious new year demands attention,’"Mr Blitz told WND.
"As the Bible tells us, there will be signs in the heavens on the feast days, and this is a very significant sign on a critical day.
"It’s the same day that there was the grand-opening ceremony of the tabernacle of Moses, with fire from heaven lighting the altar. Historically, this is a day of judgment."
He also said it was "likely a message from God to the entire world."
There will also be a partial solar eclipse on 13 September 2015, followed by the last of the four blood moons - known as a tetrad - on 28 September. The previous two occurred on 15 April and 8 October 2014.
The so-called ‘blood moon prophecy’ is apparently a sign that the world is coming to an end.
Mr Blitz said the last time there were four blood moons in a row, in 1967, Israel captured Jerusalem.
