Bible Prophecy by Rick Lange

HOW CAN WE KNOW IF WE HAVE THE RIGHT SPIRIT?                 A friend recently challenged me saying that speaking in an unknown tongue is of the devil. Well, his warnings are valid considering that the wrong spirit is having a hay day in the church today and thousands are being led astray by these false spirits who masquerade as Christ. Yeshua warned us of this when He talked about the last days saying: “See to it that no one misleads you. For many will come in MY name saying, ‘I am Christ and will mislead many.” Mt. 24:4, 5. And again in Mt. 24:24 He said: “For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect.”                 So I decided to review the differences between the right Spirit and the wrong spirit so that all of us can gain some insight i...

REALITY CHECK… WILL ALL OF THIS JUST BLOW OVER AS LIFE RETURNS TO NORMAL?                 “Behold, I am coming quickly and My reward is with Me, to render to every man according to what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end. Blessed are those who wash their robes that they may have the right to the tree of life and may enter by the gates into the city.” Rev. 22:12-14                 I know that many people who hear the prophets and the watchmen these days are thinking that maybe the events that are happening right now are being hyped up. After all, we can look back on a long list of big disappointments, where people sold the farm and then Jesus didn’t come back after all. So maybe this is just another one of those unusual seasons that will just blow over in time and everythin...

ANOTHER LOOK AT THE SIGNS                 I believe Scotty Clark was the first one to discover the sign of Revelation 12 in the constellation Virgo, or at least he was the first one to make it popular.   He believes in a pre-tribulation rapture and so he saw the man child as the church (which is the body of Christ) being caught up to God while the woman that gave birth to the church (Israel) flees into the wilderness being pursued by the Dragon (Satan).                 Now, let me say that Scotty is a sincere and deep student of the word who has literally awakened the church around the world with his message and we should respect him. He is not setting dates, He is simply interpreting the signs the best he knows how and his interpretation is a plausible one.           ...

THE GREAT APOSTASY                 “And a fifth angel sounded and I saw a star from heaven which had fallen to the earth; and the key of the bottomless pit was given to him. And he opened the bottomless pit; and smoke went out of the pit like the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit. And out of the smoke came forth locusts upon the earth; and power was given them as the scorpions of the earth have power. And they were told that they should not hurt the grass of the earth nor any green thing, nor any tree, but only the men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads.” Rev. 9:1-4                 On further down the chapter in verse 11, we learn that the leader of this demon horde is Abaddon or in Greek Apollyon. Rev 9:11.         ...

GOOD MORNING LORD                 Today is the eve of Rosh Hashanah. Tomorrow and the next day are the two days that determine the new moon. These are the two days of which it is said, “No one knows the day or the hour.” Someday You will come to take us home on one of these two days. May it be soon Lord! May it be this year!                 We are in the midst of a great convergence of signs. You woke us up with the blood moons. You warned us with a total eclipse of the sun. You said that nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom and there will be great earthquakes and in various places plagues and famines; and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven. You said that Jerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. Has the time of the Gentiles been fulfil...

THE DAY OF THE LORD                 Throughout scripture the phrase “The day of the Lord” is used many times. And though it is used to describe historical times of war, persecution, and captivity brought on by Israel’s disobedience; it most often spoke of one particular event. It spoke of the Day of the Lord at the end of the age.                 The day of the Lord, as far as I can understand, contains the following elements, listed in the order of their progression: 1.        Tribulation 2.        Rapture (Rev 14: 14-16) the sickle harvest. 3.        Wrath (Begins with chapter 14:18-20.) Note that chapter 15 shows the raptured saints on the sea of glass while chapter 16 shows the wrath of God being poured out in the form of vial j...

THE POPE OF ROME, (is he the antichrist or the false prophet?)                   In saying that all roads lead to Rome, I mean to say that all of these churches that are falling away from the faith are, whether they know it yet or not, falling for the global religion that will is being led by Pope Francis. As we know, apostate Protestants in America will be the first in line to rejoin the Papacy in its global religion and when they do, they will persecute true Christians. We see these events coming together at a rapid pace. Randy challenged me on my position that the pope is the False Prophet, so let’s look at it. I recognize the pope's potential to rule the whole world and I also know that the Vatican is much more powerful than most people can comprehend. In other words, they literally rule the world behind the scenes even now. They (the Vatican) rule over the kings of the earth and even America and ...
