A biblical omen has been discovered among the devastating aftermath of Hurricane Helene in North Carolina.
A man walking through the wreckage uncovered a Bible attached to a metal post in the yard of a home that had been destroyed.
The pages were opened to the Book of Revelation, chapters 14 and 15, which discusses how people will be punished and perish through a series of great disasters and destruction.
Although Revelation doesn’t explain the manner of the destruction, it says the land will be destroyed to make way for a new order of Heaven and Earth.
In a TikTok video, a man in the background is heard saying: ‘Of all the things destroyed, [the Bible] was left open and it’s sitting there, and we’re not touching it.’
Hurricane Helene tore through 16 eastern US states on September 26, downing power lines, destroying homes and leaving entire towns completely flooded.
Stories of divine intervention are also cropping up in the aftermath of the storm, with one Georgia woman saying she was saved by a Biblical voice.
Cindy Cole, 62, reported that the voice woke her up as the tumult of Helene surrounded the area and told her to leave her bedroom just before a tree crashed through the wall.
Despite the severe damage, she said her Bible was the only thing still left fully intact.

In the video posted by Benjamin Fuller, two men explained that the Bible was found after the floodwaters from Hurricane Helene left the area.
‘This house was buried and flooded all the way to the roof originally,’ Fuller, who owns a beard oil company called The Millstone Store, said in the video.
‘The man who lives here had to be rescued off of the roof by a raft and they’re just demoing the entire house.
‘And this Bible was found on a pole open to Revelation.’
The Book of Revelation is part of the New Testament and has led some to believe the apocalyptic clock is ticking as it discusses other future events that could decimate the population.
A section from the Book of Revelation 14:2 says: ‘I heard a sound from Heaven. It was like the roar of rushing waters and loud thunder.’
This is synonymous with the aftermath of Hurricane Helene which claimed the lives of more than 230 people who were found amid the wreckage, in people’s backyards and in the floodwaters that reached 15 feet high in some areas.
Chapter 15 sets the stage for the final seven plagues people would experience on Earth before they could enter the Lord’s temple including devastation in the water, extreme heat that will set men on fire and an earthquake that will destroy islands and mountains.

Revelation 15:8 says: ‘The sanctuary was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power, and no one could enter the sanctuary until the seven plagues of the seven angels were finished.’
People responded to the video, with one person saying: ‘I just went to that scripture and wow. It spoke about exactly everything that’s happening and getting ready to happen. That’s a warning light right there.’
Meanwhile, others reported that their family members experienced a similar omen.
‘My cousin’s house recently burned down,’ one person commented. ‘She lost everything, but the Bible was still intact.’

Her entire bedroom was destroyed during the crash, but the Bible was the only thing that was left untouched
In a separate account, Cole shared her experience when her Bible survived Hurricane Helene after a tree landed on the bed where she had lain only moments before.
When she returned to her bedroom, she said she found it had been completely destroyed but her Bible remained untouched.
‘When I first saw the Bible, I’m like, ‘Oh look! I cannot believe that the Bible’s still standing,’ Cindy Cole told SWNS.
‘You cannot touch the word of the Lord. You cannot touch it,’ she said.
People up and down the East Coast are still recovering from the impact of Hurricane Helene which has so far resulted in nearly $13.4 billion in damages.
The storm intensified from a tropical storm to a dangerous hurricane in less than 20 hours, leaving many people unprepared and stranded without the means to evacuate.
Experts have warned that recovery efforts from the Category 4 hurricane could cost upwards of $47 billion in losses for property owners.
