END OF DAYS: THE eruption of the volcano on Spanish isle La Palma has destroyed 100 homes and forced 500 tourists to flee.

The La Cumbre Vieja volcano erupted on Sunday shooting 1,000C lava hundreds of metres into the air streaming towards towns and forcing thousands to evacuate.

No fatalities have been reported but the volcano was still active on Monday as experts fear the eruption could last for weeks or even months.

Mariano Hernandez, president of La Palma's council, told Cadena Ser the lava flow has destroyed about 100 houses so far.

Local authorities have evacuated about 5,000 people from four villages, including El Paso and Los Llanos de Aridane, Canary Islands regional president Angel Victor Torres said on Monday morning.

Around 500 tourists were rescued from a hotel in the coastal resort of Puerto Naos and offered emergency accommodation in an old barracks in Santa Cruz.

Mayor Sergio Rodriguez said the molten rock was now spreading through the village of Los Llanos de Aridane "where hundreds of houses are at risk".

"The lava left absolutely nothing in its path", Rodriguez told TVE.

Terrifying footage revealed the moment a river of orange-topped volcanic rock swept into the garden of a house as firefighters made a desperate bid to stop the lava.

The dramatic video showed the lava bursting through the ground-floor windows of the house as the river of molten rock smashed its way into the dining room.

The luxury home was one of 20 properties engulfed in the village of El Paso by the endless flow of volcanic rock spewing from the volcano overnight.

Another video showed a stream of magma swallowing a house as it disappeared under a plume of black and white smoke.

A local who filmed the destruction said: "The lava's heading in the direction of those homes and is going to eat them up. All the properties in the area below this road the lava is crossing at the moment are going to disappear."

Look around the earth, The Birthpains that Signals the End is all over the Nations and Continent.

Just like it was in the days of Noah/ Lot, Many have become so wise in the eyes of man but Fools in God's Eyes. They say " it is nothing! This is normal! They use Geography and statistics to equate the Visible Warnings of the Coming Wrath of GOD on the earth.

The Gospel of JESUS Christ has always been Foolishness to those that Perish.

I Admonish All and Sundry from the Depth of my Heart to Buckle up. The Signs are Everywhere! JESUS CHRIST IS COMING!! REPENT and BELIEVE the GOSPEL! ESCAPE for your Life. What is happening now is nothing to what is Coming.
You do not want to here to witness the Full Dose of GOD'S Wrath.

Just in case you Don't understand, see here to see, know and Understand what is Coming on this Earth.

Human beings dey settle for antarctica the ancestors of there people saw big mountain with volcano and decided that's where they want to settle down for life.

After they evacuate them and the volcano destroys everything, they will go back rebuild and continue living there.

Dont mind the clown. He goes about scouring the internet for bad news so he can create a thread and comment on it to rant. It's like a sickness with that guy. Apparently checking day and night on Nairaland topics for bad news to be posted is not feasible anymore. Now he has to create his own to convince himself that his joblessness will soon be over when the world is destroyed.

Typical of Chosen church members. When they are not rolling about in the mud with their stinking aprons they are constituting nuisance on the road with their loud speakers. Now they have started coming to the internet to make stupid claims.

I think must people would have preferred natural disaster to our naturally corrupt leaders.
Its a fact that these destroyed buildings cost billions but with a corrupt free system, it would be rebuilt in less than 6 months & few lifes lost. However in a corrupt country every day is a man made disaster, for these infrastructures are killing people daily & billions would be stolen every year in the name of budget.

Why must you choose bad events to preach the gospel? Any religion that uses fear to evangelize to unbelievers is not worth following, don't you think so?

Read the Bible and show me where Jesus used tragedy to win believers?
