Welcome to Revelation Warning, a weekly podcast hosted by Pastor Robert Thibodeau as he interviews prophecy experts from around the world as we discuss current events in relation to Bible prophecy.
Pastor Robert Thibodeau:All of this is to give the world a final Revelation Warning.
Pastor Robert Thibodeau:Now here is your host with this week's guest, Pastor Robert Thibodeau.
Pastor Robert Thibodeau:Foreign.
Speaker B:Everywhere.
Speaker B:Pastor Robert Thibodeau here.
Speaker B:Welcome to the Revelation Warning podcast.
Speaker B:We are so blessed that you're joining us here today.
Speaker B:Our guest today coming back on is Dr.
Speaker B:Richard ruling.
Speaker B:And I'm excited every time he comes on.
Speaker B:He's a prophecy expert.
Speaker B:He has insight into scriptures that, that a lot of people I talk to just don't have.
Speaker B:And with his insight, we get a clear, I won't say a complete clearer picture, but the, the, the haze and the fog starts to dissipate, I guess you could say, where we can start seeing exactly what he's talking about in scripture.
Speaker B:With that being said, help me.
Speaker B:Welcome back to the program Dr.
Speaker B:Richard ruling.
Speaker B:Doc, thank you for coming back on, sharing with us today.
Speaker B:I appreciate your time.
Dr. Richard Ruling:God bless you, Bob.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Pastor Robert, I'm so thankful to be with you.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Your enthusiasm and your reach in your ministry, I covet it and you allow me to share with those that you've nurtured over the years.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But here I come as a late comer.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But I got, I think, some good stuff for today anyway.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Thank you.
Speaker B:Amen.
Speaker B:Amen.
Speaker B:Yeah, because you sent out an article and I had to get you on to talk about this where you say this could be our last Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and explain that for us a little bit.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Well, I want to go back to Grant Jeffrey or Jeffrey Grant, I can't remember which, which is his name, but he wrote a book called the Signature of God.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And the mathematical signature of God in one of his chapters is seven, just like God made the world six days.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And the rest of the seventh, you put one.
Dr. Richard Ruling:If you have seven coins, you put one in the center.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And if they are nickels or dimes, they're all the same size.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Six will fit perfectly around one in the center, which is God, you know, in a sense.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And so seven is a very interesting number.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I'm wanting to share with you something about seven days, seven weeks, seven months and seven years today.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I believe that we are looking right now in, in the.
Dr. Richard Ruling:What can I say?
Dr. Richard Ruling:It's about seven weeks since this last weekend that people will be singing Handel's Messiah.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Okay.
Dr. Richard Ruling:For Christmas time, the Christmas season.
Dr. Richard Ruling:I know of a church that I'm Specifically targeting right now.
Dr. Richard Ruling:They're gonna on on Saturday have handels Messiah on the 21st of December.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Well, that's seven weeks from, from this past weekend.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I'm writing to the pastor because I believe this is the last really good Christmas we're going to have based on the other sevens that I haven't told you about yet.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But the idea is that when Christ was asked about the end of the world, he said to understand the book of Daniel.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And in Daniel's seventh chapter, there's a conflict between a ram pushing from the Middle east, it's really a Muslim ram, and a goat that is angry and flies from the west to stop the ram.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And it says in verse 20, verse 17 says the vision is at the time of the end.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Verse 20 says the horns on the ram are the kings of Media and Persia.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Well, those nations are.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Yeah, and Iraq.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And actually I predicted a war with Iraq before 911 based on this.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So Iran is next.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And a year ago, just in this past October 7, Hamas, funded by Iraq, attacked Israel.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And they.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And what Zechariah says Hamas did in miniature in a lower degree, see Zechariah 14:1 says Day of the Lord, which is the end time period of judgment.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Let me just say this.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It's not when he comes in the sky, I don't think, because when God.
Dr. Richard Ruling:First of all, Joel has more references to day of the Lord than any other book.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But no second coming.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So I don't think it's the second coming.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But in Egypt, God said, I will execute judgment.
Dr. Richard Ruling:This is night of the lord in verses 12 and 42.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Okay, so night of the Lord judgment.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I believe day of the Lord will also be judgment for the end time, like Egypt was many thousands of years ago.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And the point is that when God executed judgment, he took Israel to a covenant at Sinai that made them his kingdom.
Dr. Richard Ruling:He said, if you keep my covenant, you'll be a kingdom.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And he also said later, Jeremiah 3:14, I'm married to you.
Dr. Richard Ruling:He was regarding the covenant as a marriage.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And today we think of it as a covenant relationship.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Even so the idea is we can marry Christ if we understand how to get the covenant.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I'm believing that what we were talking about before was Iran.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And Daniel 8, it says in Za, you know, first of all, Iraq was a bad deal.
Dr. Richard Ruling:We left men and equipment over there.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And we're not wanting war with Iran.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It's a bigger deal.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It said the higher horn came up last.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But what makes us angry, Adam, it must be their taking of Jerusalem.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Like Hamas did a year ago.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It says in Zechariah 14, 1 and 2, day of the Lord comes and nations will be gathered against Jerusalem.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Houses rifled, women rifle raped.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Half the city goes into captivity.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Well, yeah, and, and, and because they are our only best ally really in the Middle east, we gotta go, we gotta defend them.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And so that will make the goat angry.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Basically, we've, we've moved our embassy to uh, Jerusalem, et cetera.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So I'm seeing that as impending for next spring in, uh, first Samuel, or maybe.
Dr. Richard Ruling:No, it's two Samuel, I believe it is.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Can't remember first or second, but it's the 11th chapter and the second verse.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And in the spring when kings go forth to battle, it says, well that's, that's historic.
Dr. Richard Ruling:You know, Titus came to Jerusalem at time of Passover in the spring.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I believe that that's when the Muslims will attack.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I believe they will celebrate their mosque which says, allah has no son.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The, the, the Quran has that in it.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And so the son, it's time for him to speak.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Christ is the, the lion of Judah in Revelation 5:5.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And so he, the lion will roar.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The Lord will roar.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It says, this is Joel 3:16.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The Lord shall roar from Jerusalem.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The heavens and earth will shake.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So that's one big earthquake.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And we sing about it at Christmas in Handel's Messiah.
Dr. Richard Ruling:In Haggai 2 it says, the Lord whom you seek.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Let's see, wait a minute.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Once in a little while I'll shake the heavens, the earth, the sea, the dry land, all nations.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And the desire of all nations shall come.
Dr. Richard Ruling:That's what it was.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Haggai 2, 6 and 7.
Dr. Richard Ruling:I believe the desire of all nations is Christ's kingdom.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It will be fair, it'll be wonderful, there'll be no war, et cetera, you know, but it's linked to the shaking of the heavens and earth.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I'm seeing that as a first of all.
Dr. Richard Ruling:This is related to Passover, which is a seven day.
Dr. Richard Ruling:I talked about seven days.
Dr. Richard Ruling:First of all, Passover is a seven day feast.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I believe that if we understand how those seven days can be seven days of unleavened bread.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Remember when Israel left Egypt, they ate unleavened bread for seven days.
Dr. Richard Ruling:That was the main.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Okay.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And Passover is a time of unleavened bread.
Dr. Richard Ruling:They were supposed to get rid of the leaven in their houses.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Well, Christ said, beware the leaven of the Pharisees, meaning their doctrine.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So it's not just about crackers.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It's really about what the leaven represents.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The preachers have a way of making the sermon light.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It's easy to swallow.
Dr. Richard Ruling:You don't even have to chew it.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It just sounds good and so on.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But the, the problem is that we've, we've gotten rid of stuff that takes a little chewing to really understand it.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I'm going to make a reference to some of it a little later.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But I just want to say that there are seven topics I'm seeing that are part of our offer to Christ.
Dr. Richard Ruling:When Abraham gave Abimelech seven new lambs for a water well, he was.
Dr. Richard Ruling:That was the initiative for a covenant for him to have water for his flocks.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But the active, the proactive person had to give 7 of something like the water well or, you know, God.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Seven times he promised Abraham that land over there.
Dr. Richard Ruling:From Genesis 12 to 17.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Seven times I went through there and looked at it and walked through this land.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It's yours, wherever your footsteps and so on until chapter 17.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And God gave Israel seven holy days.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Their annual Sabbaths.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The first and last day of Passover were holy convocations.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The first and last day of the feast of Tabernacles was holy convocations.
Dr. Richard Ruling:There was Rosh Hashanah, Pentecost, Yom Kippur.
Dr. Richard Ruling:They all added up to seven.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Seven annual Sabbaths.
Dr. Richard Ruling: are also called in Leviticus: Dr. Richard Ruling:Will we keep our appointments?
Dr. Richard Ruling:You know, in other words, when Christ comes, he will be looking for those who are looking for him.
Dr. Richard Ruling:God got an ignorant bride at Sinai and he sadly, Israel worshiped a calf.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And we don't want that for Christ.
Dr. Richard Ruling:He deserves an intelligent bride.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So there are topics that have been leavened out of most of Christianity, these appointed times.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But that's how God makes his statement.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And the point is that for this coming year, there is a historically unique time period for Passover.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Let me back up and say that that Passover in the Bible was the first month of spring after the equinox.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But when Christ was talking about the end of the world, he said, no man knows the day or hour.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And another place in Matthew 25 he says, you don't know the day or hour.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It really might have been a euphemism for a.
Dr. Richard Ruling:A different way of saying, you don't understand.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Okay, it's like no man knows the day or hour, but as the days of Noah or you don't understand.
Speaker B:Yeah, I wanted to get to that part.
Speaker B:Yeah, this part I wanted to get to.
Dr. Richard Ruling:All right.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Good.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Okay.
Dr. Richard Ruling: But when he said in Matthew: Dr. Richard Ruling:But, oh, he said in the King James is four, you don't know.
Dr. Richard Ruling:For the kingdom of God is like a man traveling to a far country.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And that travel was also a provision for Passover a month later.
Dr. Richard Ruling:If they took a long trip, couldn't get back in time, they were not excused because Passover meant judgment.
Dr. Richard Ruling:They had to keep it a month later.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And so that's how those who are believers operated.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And actually, there are about five or six parables like that.
Dr. Richard Ruling:After Christ said, no man knows the day or hour, but as the days of Noah, the next parable begins, then shall two be in the field healed.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Then is the same time.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Okay.
Dr. Richard Ruling:One taken, the other left.
Dr. Richard Ruling:We think of that as a rapture since their movie Left behind series.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But really it's.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It's not about a rapture.
Dr. Richard Ruling:God took his people to the wilderness to prove what was in their heart, he said, and it wasn't.
Speaker B:I want to enter.
Speaker B:I want to interrupt you there.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Sure.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Because good, good.
Speaker B:As he said now, no man knows the day or hour, but as the days of Noah and, you know, the.
Speaker B:Then we talk about Methuselah.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Right, right.
Speaker B:Good for the oldest person to ever live.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Yeah.
Speaker B:He was, you know, Noah's father, grandfather, something like that.
Speaker B:And as soon as Methuselah died, there was seven days mourning for, you know, the loss of a loved one.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Actually, then.
Speaker B:Okay, but I'm saying.
Speaker B:And then, yeah, you could say all hell broke loose.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Yes.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Right.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Good for you for bringing that out.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The two provisions for a late Passover were contact with a dead body or morning like that.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And the other was a long travel if you couldn't get back.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And so you keep it later.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I'm seeing that when Muslims take Jerusalem, they'll be attacking at first Passover, but by second Passover time, it will be fit in with the flood coming at that time.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Oh, and now I'm finishing out.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The last day of Passover, which happens to be a holy convocation, falls on a historically important date or sign of Christ's coming in.
Dr. Richard Ruling:If you were to Google Dark day in Joel 2, 2 it says, the day of the Lord is the day of darkness.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Okay.
Dr. Richard Ruling: storically, in New England in: Dr. Richard Ruling:It was so dark.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And it wasn't smoke.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It wasn't you know, they didn't know.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And this.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Anyway, but it repeated 200 years later when Mount St.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Helens erupted and put ash into the sky overnight.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Wind carried it to dark in three states on May 19th again.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So I'm believing, okay, I'm believing that God is marking May 19 twice.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It was a 200th anniversary.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Why is he marking it?
Dr. Richard Ruling:This coming spring, May 19 falls on Passover, time of judgment.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It won't be next year.
Dr. Richard Ruling:I mean, it wasn't this year and it won't be the year after.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But it just.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The way the calendar is, God is wonderful number and he can make it turn out for, you know, centuries in advance.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So anyway, amazing.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Amen.
Speaker B:Amen.
Speaker B:And like I said, we referenced Methuselah, whose name means when he dies, it will come.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Yeah.
Speaker B:And it did.
Speaker B:And it did.
Speaker B:And if the numbers are laying out, you know, if everything is laying out like we're.
Speaker B:We're looking at.
Speaker B:I mean, as you said, this could be our last Merry Christmas.
Dr. Richard Ruling:I believe so.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And let me finish out if Muslims attack the city and we make a covenant at second Passover, also, Passover is the time when you start counting to Pentecost.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It's like from the, you know, Christ died on Friday and then he was in the grave on Saturday and Sunday morning he came out of the grave.
Dr. Richard Ruling:That Sunday morning was also the start to Pentecost.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Fifty days from that Sabbath, it ends up on Sunday, seven weeks later.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So here's seven weeks we talked about seven days of Passover, seven weeks to Pentecost and then seven months from now till July, when that Pentecost is okay for us to understand and get ready.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And then seven years for the last seven years that happened.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But also.
Speaker B:Amen.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But one more that I gotta.
Dr. Richard Ruling:When they sing the Messiah at Christmas time and at Haggai 2, it three times has an odd date that is out of the middle of nowhere.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It mentions in Haggai 2, verse 10, 18 and 20, the 9th month and 24th day.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And how do we get there?
Dr. Richard Ruling:You know, because that's not.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The Jewish feast days are mostly in the first month of Passover, but also seventh month is the Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur and Feast of Tabernacles.
Dr. Richard Ruling:That's really the big heavy time.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But seventh month, how do we get to ninth month?
Dr. Richard Ruling:Well, if you go from Pentecost next July, I'm believing first of all, yeah, we need to understand that when Muslims take Jerusalem, there's going to be destruction in Jerusalem and the Lord roaring From Jerusalem, Joel 3:16.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Heavens and earth shake.
Dr. Richard Ruling:That's the biggest earthquake probably in history.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Jerusalem is going to be destroyed basically by earthquake or Muslims.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And history repeats Proverbs 25:2 says it's the glory of God to conceal a thing, the honor of kings to search out a matter.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And the idea is that he causes things in the past to repeat.
Dr. Richard Ruling:This is Ecclesiastes 3:15.
Dr. Richard Ruling:What has been already.
Dr. Richard Ruling:God summons each event back in his turn.
Speaker B:Amen.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The prophecy that the best known prophecy in the time prophecy in the Bible is, is Daniel 9, 24 and 25, 70 weeks determined upon my people.
Dr. Richard Ruling:69 weeks from a decree to restore and build Jerusalem to Messiah.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So here we need.
Dr. Richard Ruling:We need a decree to restore and build Jerusalem.
Dr. Richard Ruling:For what's going to happen at when.
Dr. Richard Ruling:When the heavens and earth shake and the Muslims attack and everything.
Dr. Richard Ruling:We need a decree.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So 69 weeks go.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Now this is not weeks of years.
Dr. Richard Ruling:This is literal time.
Dr. Richard Ruling:A year and a half till the.
Dr. Richard Ruling: In: Dr. Richard Ruling:Now this is biblical calendar.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Now starting in the spring, it's not starting in January, the 9th month.
Dr. Richard Ruling:This is really November ish.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Okay.
Dr. Richard Ruling:That it ends up on the 9th month and 24th day.
Dr. Richard Ruling:If you use a biblical lunar calendar.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And that takes a little explaining.
Dr. Richard Ruling:How much time do we have?
Dr. Richard Ruling:I don't want to.
Speaker B:About ten minutes.
Speaker B:About ten minutes.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Oh, okay.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Well, about eight minutes.
Speaker B:Eight minutes.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Okay.
Dr. Richard Ruling:There is a website and I'll send you a link that you can put it up.
Dr. Richard Ruling:I think he's a Jewish rabbi guy that accepts the Messiah and he talks about the lunar calendar.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Now he doesn't mention one clue that I found and that is Revelation 12.
Dr. Richard Ruling:1.
Dr. Richard Ruling:There is a woman clothed in the light of the sun.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Well, she is the pure woman.
Dr. Richard Ruling:She represents God's people.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And as the new world order is developing and increasing, I think there's going to be an end of denominations.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And we either go one way or the other, either with the pure woman or the Harlot.
Dr. Richard Ruling:In Revelation 17, which is new world order and control of everybody.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And you know, compelling.
Dr. Richard Ruling:The Bible refers to false worship.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And this is Revelation 13th chapter.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It's the third beast.
Dr. Richard Ruling:There's the first beast.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Historically, early Americans believed that that first beast, which had a mouth like a lion, feet like a bear, looked like a leopard and.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And had the seven horns and ten horns and seven.
Dr. Richard Ruling:I'm sorry, yes, ten horns and seven crowns like the beasts in Daniel 7.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It was an amalgamation of those beasts.
Dr. Richard Ruling:There was a lion, a bear, a leopard, And a dragon.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So here's the first beast that survived all those other countries or nations was the Papacy.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And they believe that this papacy is what they flooded actually for freedom of worship in the new World because they didn't want to be burned to the stake.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And bottom line is that I'm seeing the second beast is a lamb like beast that I believe represents America.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It had two horns like a lamb, gentle, peace loving.
Dr. Richard Ruling:America's been that way historically.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And no crowns on the horns, no king of government, no Pope in the church, Protestant America.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But it speaks like a dragon in its laws as we are coming to now and losing our freedoms.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And basically it causes fire to come down from heaven.
Dr. Richard Ruling:We did that with Hiroshima, Nagasaki.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And it causes the world to make an image or a look alike to the first beast.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I think the United nations is that image beast.
Dr. Richard Ruling:In other words, with so many Catholic countries to our south, we only get one vote.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But all those, each of those nations get a vote.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So we're outvoted.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And it's the Pope that will be in charge of the new world order morally and he'll decide what we we need to do.
Dr. Richard Ruling:He encouraged everybody to get the shot for Covid, which was really a bad shot in retrospect.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But he said do your neighborly duty to help your neighbor.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Got not get the etc.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It basically is about control.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And God doesn't try to control everybody.
Dr. Richard Ruling:He wants Peter to have the freedom of choice.
Dr. Richard Ruling:If he's going to beat us and punish us every time we do wrong, we would be serving God from fear.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And God doesn't want that.
Dr. Richard Ruling:He wants us to serve him from love and appreciation for what he's done.
Dr. Richard Ruling:He is a great God.
Dr. Richard Ruling:He deserved everything we can give him and more.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And that's the attitude that we need to have, I think to be his people and to have the free choices.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So anyway, let me ask you this.
Speaker B:As we get ready to wrap up.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Okay.
Speaker B:How can a believer make it through the times you're talking about?
Dr. Richard Ruling:I believe by when God made a covenant with Israel.
Dr. Richard Ruling:In Exodus 34, verse 10 and 11, he says, Behold, I make a covenant.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It's a terrible thing I'm going to do with you.
Dr. Richard Ruling:I'm going to drive out the Canaanite.
Dr. Richard Ruling:God protected them because of the covenant.
Dr. Richard Ruling:As long as they were faithful to the covenant, there was protection.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I believe we need the covenant to be protected.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Glad you asked.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And I believe that the seven topics that we need to have, just like Abraham gave seven new lambs, we got to Give seven days of unleavened bread as a wedding feast, prenuptial feast for the wedding of topics that Christ wants, like God's name.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Christ was concerned about God's name.
Dr. Richard Ruling:He says, father, glorify your name.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And when the people heard Christ's prayer, they heard thunder from heaven as well.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Thunder is linked to God's name.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And that's the first seal.
Dr. Richard Ruling:In Revelation 6, when John heard thunder, it was one of the four creatures.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And those seven seals represent seven topics that I see are important.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And specifically I have a book called earthquake and seven seals.
Dr. Richard Ruling:It's about the seven ideas or topics from Revelation 6 that we need in order to make the covenant.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So I just might mention the website is called Health, Happiness and Destiny.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And if you go there, you can get a book cheap.
Dr. Richard Ruling:They're not expensive.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Everything is under $10.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Even the audiobooks are under 10.
Dr. Richard Ruling:So.
Dr. Richard Ruling:And the digital how, how it all ends is like $2.95.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Why, that's a bag of popcorn.
Dr. Richard Ruling:You can afford popcorn for your mind, you know.
Speaker B:Amen.
Speaker B:It's a good book too.
Speaker B:It's a good book.
Speaker B:Praise God.
Speaker B:Amen.
Speaker B:So, Dr.
Speaker B:Early, if someone wanted to get in touch with you, how can they do that?
Dr. Richard Ruling:They can email me as best way my name ruling r u h l I n g sevenahoo.com and I'll be glad to respond, especially if you got a book and have a question or whatever.
Dr. Richard Ruling:But if I can help, I'm glad to do it in whatever time I've got.
Dr. Richard Ruling:Thanks.
Speaker B:Amen.
Speaker B:Amen.
Speaker B:And I'll, I'll put the links to all this in the show notes below.
Speaker B:Amen, folks.
Speaker B:Dr.
Speaker B:Ruling has come on many times and every time he comes on, it gets me excited because I can says he's talking.
Speaker B:I can sense the soon return of Jesus is about to happen.
Speaker B:I mean, it's.
Speaker B:Every day I wake up, I'm like, oh man, I'm still here.
