Introduction the chapter 16

Same pattern as the seven trumpets

1.    First four affecting creation

·       They follow the same pattern as the seven trumpets: four (affecting creation: earth, sea, water, ­and Sun);

·       The first four affect the land, sea, springs of water and sun, i.e. God’s creation as announced by the first of the three angels who commands those who live on the earth to,

Rev 14:7 - Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

·       Because they refuse to worship Him but worship the beast, the first four bowls affect the created order: the land, the sea, the waters and the sun.

2.     Two affecting the beast

3.     The final one in which the cities of the nations collapsed.

4.     Man is judged personally later

2 Thess 1:7-9

⁷And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,

⁸In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:

⁹Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;

Nutshell of six bowel of wrath

Bowl 1 is poured out on the land and it effects the people who had the mark of the beast and worshipped his image.

Bowl 2 is poured out on the sea.

Bowl 3 is poured out on the rivers

Bowl 4 is poured out on the sun

Bowl 5 is poured out over the throne of the beast.

Bowl 6 is poured out over the Euphrates

Bowl 7 is poured out into the air.

Rev 16: 1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.

1.   And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels,

    The voice out of the temple means we can clearly understand this voice belongs to our God Yahuwah. 

2.     God voice from the temple - God Commanding all the 7 angels go out and pour out on the earth.

3.    Go your ways, - This means already the God instructed all the 7 angels what to do?

2 Thess 1:7

⁷And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,

4.   and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. :  Psa 69:24, 79:6,

People

Psa 69:24 - Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.

Kings and Ruler

Psa 79:6 Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known you, and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.

28.1. First bowl (16:2)

16:2 The first angel went and poured out his bowl on the land, and ugly and painful sores broke out on the people who had the mark of the beast and  worshipped his image

·       The bowl is poured out on the land but it affects man directly.

·       The first bowl affects all people who worship the beast and who have therefore given their allegiance to him rather than God.

·       They refuse to worship God and therefore their hour of Judgement has come (14:7).

·       See the similarity with the sixth plague on Egypt, Exo9:9, in which festering boils break out on the men and animals.

Exo 9:9 And it shall become small dust in all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking forth with blains upon man, and upon beast, throughout all the land of Egypt.

·       The land, yet people are affected, contrary to the first trumpet which did not affect

people, Rev 8:7.

Rev 8:7

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.

·      So the followers of the beast are afflicted with painful and ugly sores. In Deu 28:35 painful boils were to be the judgement on those who disobeyed God.

Deu 28:35

³⁵The LORD shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head.

³⁶The LORD shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.
