THE MESSIANIC KINGDOM IS NEAR
The third bowl of God’s wrath
The third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood. (Revelation 16:4) The Third bowl of God’s wrath caused all rivers and fresh streams of water turned into blood. This time not every living thing died like in the case of the sea. This bawl of God’s anger is similar to the first plague that God inflicted to the land of Egypt. The Nile River changed into blood.
Thus says the Lord God: By this you shall know that I am the Lord. Behold, with the staff that is in my hand I will strike the water that is in the Nile, and it shall turn into blood. Moses and Aaron did as God commanded. In the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants he lifted up the staff and struck the water in the Nile, and all the water in the Nile turned into blood. And the fish in the Nile died, and the Nile stank, so that the Egyptians could not drink water from the Nile. There was blood throughout all the land of Egypt. (Exodus 7:17,20,21) Now the Egyptians must either drink blood, or die for thirst. Egypt was a lovely land, but the dead fish and blood now made it unlovely. It was a justifiable plague, and fairly sent upon the Egyptians; considering the Nile River of Egypt was their admiration. That lifesaver which we admire, God rightly takes from us, or makes sour to us. It was a significant plague; Egypt had considerable reliance upon their river so that in staining the river with blood is very dangerous. That is a clear warning of what ahead if Egypt continues to disobey God’s order to let his people go to worship him in the wilderness. The plague of Egypt turned the Nile River into blood didn't spread to other nations. It was only a demonstration to show the power of God to Pharaoh the king of Egypt. It was terrible because the Egyptians could not find water to drink. Then all the Egyptians dug along the riverbank to find drinking water, for they couldn’t drink the water from the Nile. Seven days passed from the time the Lord struck the Nile. Exodus 7:24-25
Very soon the bowl of the anger of God will cause humankind to suffer the consequences of their evil ways. The blood will contaminate all rivers and all fresh streams of water of the earth that will cause unthinkable hardship and suffering. There will be no water to drink; no clean water to wash the infecting sores caused by the first bowl of God’s wrath no water to bring cooling relief from a summer heat that remains specially two consecutive days of 90 degrees Fahrenheit or greater. The scene is so unimaginably horrible that people will wonder how a God of love, compassion, mercy, and grace could send such a punishment. These plagues of God’s wrath had been written in the bible for almost 2000 years. Christians throughout history have been preaching that before the return of Jesus Christ to start the Messianic Kingdom of God the Almighty, all prophecies must be fulfilled in the last days of the end of the age.
The worst of all is that nobody knows how long the rivers the springs of water will remain bloody. In the case of Egypt the Nile River was temporarily bloody for a very short period of time. When all rivers and springs of water become blood in the whole wide world, let Science Community know that the only imaginable explanation is to say, this is the wrath of God. For it has been predicted for almost 2000 years. (Revelation 16:4-7) What are we going to drink? God is the Almighty. He can make his servants live without feeling of thirst or hunger for the period of time the rivers and the springs of water turn into blood. In one occasion Moses was in the Mount Sinai with God for forty days and forty nights without eating bread, and drinking water. (Exodus 34: 28) Note Revelation 16: 4 said The third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood. (?). Repent! The time is very near. The Messianic Kingdom of God the Creator will establish very soon. It will be a thousand years in peace and security with the Messiah (Jesus Christ). Take notice this is only for people who worship God the Almighty ceaselessly that will have the opportunity to survive the great tribulation and enter the Messianic Kingdom of God. Even if some worshipers of God the Creator in the course of time have died they will come back to life at the last day. This is the first resurrection. (John 11:23-25, Revelation 20:4-5) The Lord God the Almighty wants everybody to have eternal life. Turn to God to receive forgiveness of sins. It is free because of the blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God. The Lord God the Creator made this invitation to all sinners: "Come now, let us settle the matter," says the LORD. "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool." (Isaiah 1:18) Apostle John continued to reveal what was happening in heaven. And I heard the angel in charge of the waters say, “Just are you, O Holy One, who is and who was, for you brought these judgments. For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and you have given them blood to drink. It is what they deserve!” And I heard the altar saying, “Yes, God the Almighty, true and just are your judgments!” (Revelation 16:5-7)
These heavenly beings: elders, living creatures, and angels are ceaselessly reminding us that the deeds of God are holy and just. God is also consistent with his qualities. The wild beast, Babylon the Great, the people who have the mark of the beast and worship its image shed so much blood of Christians on the earth. They have been found guilty of murder before the throne of God the Almighty. Revelation (13:1,2 and 14:9-11) The truth is one day just like today people all over the world will listen or read the news that all rivers and springs of water turn into blood. It will be the most horrific day in history of humankind. There will be blood in every country in the world. That will cause an unprecedented panic throughout the world. A lot of pastors, ecclesiastics have not even read the book of Revelation of the Bible or they don't like to read it at all. Some religious leaders say openly they don’t like to read the book of Revelation because it is too metaphorical and very difficult to understand. And they are in charge to educate people of all the prophecies containing in this particular book. Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near. (Revelation 1:3) This is the time for sinners to repent and look for help for God is love and merciful. The apostle Paul said Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. Hebrew 4:16
This bowl of God’s anger is literal because the angel in charge of the waters said so. There is nothing figurative in it. As it occurred in the land of Egypt it will happen the same way. When the third angel poured out his bowl literally all the rivers, springs of waters in the whole wide world will turn into blood. Let everyone on earth be careful about the next statement. There are six things that the LORD hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community. (Proverbs 6:16-19) God the Almighty hates hands that shed innocent blood. This was one of the reasons God the Creator sent the Great Flood to destroy the world of Noah's time. Now the earth was corrupt in God’s sight, and the earth was filled with violence. God saw how corrupt the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways. (Genesis 6:11-12) There is no difference between Noah's time and the Twenty First Century in term of violence. According to some observers there is more violence and corruption today because technology and science created more sophisticated lethal weaponry then any time in the past history of humankind. Too much blood has been shed on earth throughout history of mankind. God is angry because bloodshed pollutes the earth. Do not pollute the land where you are. Bloodshed pollutes the land, and atonement cannot be made for the land on which blood has been shed, except by the blood of the one who shed it. (Numbers 35:33).
David was the king of Israel and he was a very faithful servant of God the Almighty. So God loved him and gave him the kingdom of Israel and to his offspring forever. He wanted to build a house for God. Despite his loyalty God refused him to do so, because he was a faithful soldier of God the Almighty but shed too much blood. David said: But this word of the LORD came to me 'You have shed much blood and have fought many wars. You are not to build a house for my Name, because you have shed much blood on the earth in my sight. But you will have a son who will be a man of peace and rest, and I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side. His name will be Solomon, and I will grant Israel peace and quiet during his reign. He is the one who will build a house for my Name. (1 Chronicle 22: 8-10) It was in the name of God that David fought all wars. God has loved him for carrying out his wars faithfully. Those wars were necessary to keep the nation of Israel safe and the name of God holy. But God still hates bloodshed. Repent now before it is too late to do so and search forgiveness of sins, stop killing one another. God said, "You shall not murder." (Exodus 20:13) For down the line we are all brothers and sisters. From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. (Acts 17:26) Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. (1 Pierre 4:8) Jesus said: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments." Matthew 22:37-40
