A strong 6.6-magnitude earthquake hit off the northeast coast of New Zealand on Tuesday, the US Geological Survey said.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center issued a local tsunami warning but said there was no threat of a widespread destructive tsunami.

The quake struck at 1.02am (1302 Monday GMT) around 550 kilometres east of Auckland, USGS said, with an epicentre 90 kilometres below the surface.
USGS had earlier placed the magnitude at 6.4.
New Zealand's second largest city Christchurch was devastated by a 6.3-magnitude quake in February, which claimed 181 lives and followed a more powerful but less destructive 7.1 quake last September.

PUT YOUR TRUST IN YAHSHUA/JESUS

Hosea 4:6-9 (New King James Version)
6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your Elohim/God, I also will forget your children. 7 “ The more they increased, The more they sinned against Me; I will change[a] their glory[b] into shame. 8 They eat up the sin of My people; They set their heart on their iniquity. 9 And it shall be: like people, like priest. So I will punish them for their ways, And reward them for their deeds. Hosea 6:1-3 (New King James Version)
A Call to Repentance 1 Come, and let us return to Yahweh/the LORD; For He has torn, but He will heal us; He has stricken, but He will bind us up. 2 After two days He will revive us; On the third day He will raise us up, That we may live in His sight. 3 Let us know, Let us pursue the knowledge of Yahweh/the LORD. His going forth is established as the morning; He will come to us like the rain, Like the latter and former rain to the earth.
