The oceans are next to be targeted (Revelation
16:3). The second angel pours out his fiery bowl on the sea.
6. What becomes
of the fish and all ocean creatures? What will likely be the result to sea
travel and increase of disease on Planet Earth?
The oceans will cough up every imaginable creature, and the stench will
no doubt grow unbearable. Ships will be halted from the putrid and poisoning
dangers. Beaches will be lined with decaying carcasses, and as the winds and
waves increase, the contaminate will be poured even further inland. Words
cannot ably describe the oceans of death that will cover the globe, as the once
tame ecological system spirals out of control.
7. How did
Jesus describe the fear and anguish at the roaring and tossing of the sea at THE
END (Luke
21:25-26)?
The Third Angel
Revelation 16:4-7 exposes the work of the third angel of destruction. He
pours out his bowl on the rivers and fresh water sources around the planet.
8. How long can
mankind live with tainted water or without water altogether?
Water is the primary source that sustains life. One can live without
food for an extended time, but water is a necessity. Man's life can be measured
in mere days. Water will be more valuable than gold (James
5:1-9).
9. With water
scarce and survival utmost, what will individual attitudes be towards one
another (Matthew
10:34-36; 24:10)?
There will be fights to death over a few drops of water in those days.
10. The angel
of the waters gives glory to God because He judges mankind righteously. In
light of the terrible devastation upon our planet and mankind, how can God be
justified by His decision to act (v.
6)?
Almighty judges mankind for the martyrdom of His saints and prophets. He
sent His prophets to forewarn and teach through His Word, the messages of
truth. In the last days, many saints will take hold of the testimony of Jesus
and proclaim with a loud voice that God's kingdom is at hand, and the prophetic
warnings will be broadcast with Biblical evidence provided. A "great multitude"
of righteous from all nations will stand firm until the end, even unto death.
Those who will not listen to their counsel must pay for their hatred and
slaughter of God's messengers. They shed the blood of saints and prophets, so
they will then be given blood and only blood to drink.
11. What city
has been foremost in killing God's messengers through the centuries and during
the last days (Matthew
23:34-38), whose desolation is prophesied?
12. In Revelation 6:9-11
the martyrs who gave their lives at the altar of sacrifice cried, "How long…
until You judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?" What are
the martyrs' words upon seeing the work of the third angel (Revelation
16:7)?
The Fourth Angel
13. The fourth
angel will pour his fiery coals upon earth's source of light (Revelation
16:8-9). What is the result?
Earth's temperature will
rise as men and women are scorched from the suffocating heat. Burnt skin will,
without a doubt, welt into painful blisters as the wicked taste of the fiery
demise soon to overtake all of them. In agony, they blaspheme God, but there is
no repentance in their souls. Their hearts have been hardened, unresponsive to
the Son's light and grace.
Jerusalem's desolation is
complete. Darkness pursues it. This pestilence of blackness adds to the pains
and sores as temperatures plummet, but still they remain unrepentant.
The Sixth Angel
The sixth angel dries up the
river Euphrates with his fiery bowl of wrath, so that the kings of the east can
make their way westward. The sixth trumpet also mentions the angels at the
river Euphrates, who will lead millions of soldiers to great battle.
15. What
nations are east of Israel that would likely be part of the last remnant of the
world's governments?
Many Eastern Asian countries
including China, Japan and a host of nations will likely emerge from the east,
marching to combat. Russia, a northeastern country, will also be considered a
part of the masses of armies heading to the Middle East.
16. Why will
they be gathering to Israel, according to Revelation 16:16?
17. How will
Antichrist feel about the menaces from the east and north, which threatens his
newfound royal site in Jerusalem, just before he is slain (Daniel
11:44-45)?
