Revelation 8:6-8 King James Version

6 And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.

7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

It says hail and fire, so where's the fire mingled with blood? You're just highlighting the part of that stupid Middle-Eastern bronze-age prophecy that suits you.

where's the fire mingled with blood?

Did you hear the first trumpet yet? When the angel sounds, then will the prophecy be fulfilled.

The book of Revelation is not stupid, but those that try to discern it without the spirit of God will not understand it. It is a warning to repent so that you may be saved. And it is old: about 2,000 years old as given to John, making it even more remarkable that as the prophecies are fulfilled, the world may believe that Jesus does know how the world ends, and that he is also able to save all who call on his name.
