Revelation – Ringing the Bell

The Doomsday Clock

It’s time for me to get back to writing this blog and it is time for the Church to get really, really serious about waking up and spreading the Word. What finally got me motivated to start writing again was last Sunday’s sermon by Pastor Rob on the letter to the church at Sardis RevContinue reading “The Doomsday Clock”

POP UP Prophecy – Machine Insects

“And out of the smoke locusts came down on the earth and were given power like that of the scorpions of the earth…not to harm the grass…but only those people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads.” (Rev 9:3-4) As we read the Book of Revelation we have to constantly keepContinue reading “POP UP Prophecy – Machine Insects”

Kings of the East

The Book of Revelation says that the kings of the east will field two hundred million mounted troops, “twice ten thousand times ten thousand…I heard their number.” (9:14-16) According to John Walvoord, one of the great Twentieth Century prophecy scholars, in a Time magazine, May 21, 1965 article China boasted of having this many militaryContinue reading “Kings of the East”

A New Beginning

Sorry for the pause but I felt it was necessary to rethink and refocus. I should have started my blog by talking about how we are to understand and interpret Scripture, so we are going to do that now. We are going to approach Hermeneutics (the rules for understanding scripture) by using a specific passage,Continue reading “A New Beginning”

UnPause

Thanks for coming back after my recent pause in posting to the Ringing the Bell blog. I sincerely pray that you are getting worthwhile information and insight from it. Since I don’t look at my blog – it’s managed by someone else and all I do is the writing – I was blown away whenContinue reading “UnPause”

Alive and Well

He’s Here… The antichrist is alive and well on planet Earth. Today. Right now. As we speak. Got your attention? The question you may be asking is, “What makes me say that?” The first reason is that Jesus said, “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in Heaven, norContinue reading “Alive and Well”

Jerusalem in the End Times

“In that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her I will make Jerusalem an immoveable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves.” (Zech 12:3) Jerusalem is called The City of God, The Holy city, The Throne of God. It is claimed as aContinue reading “Jerusalem in the End Times”

Flyover-level Zoom Towards the Second Coming Pt 1

Since we are still here and not Raptured (is that a word?) out of here, the only option we are left with is the road through the end times; that road goes through the Tribulation and comes to an abrupt end with Jesus’ Second Coming. Here’s what seems to happen during the final seven years,Continue reading “Flyover-level Zoom Towards the Second Coming Pt 1”
