| Welcome to this lesson! Let's pray: |
| Father, As we go on with the study of the seven bowls, please continue to give us a message which fills us with confidence and hope in Your promises, just as You have so far. We thank You in advance, in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Amen. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 2 |
Revelation 15:1; 16:1 |
Comments |
| Then I saw another sign in
heaven, great and marvelous: seven angels having the seven last plagues, for in them the
wrath of God is complete. (...) Then I heard a loud voice from the temple saying to the seven angels, «Go and pour out the bowls of the wrath of God on the earth.» |
After the close of probation, the wrath of God will
show itself through the pouring out of seven bowls, containing seven plagues which will
strike unrepentant men. In this lesson, we will study the third bowl. |

Revelation 16:4 |
Comments |
| Then the third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood. | After turning the sea into blood and greatly
paralyzing the economic activities of this world, the wrath of God will turn the rivers
and springs of water into blood. This plague will pose a very short-term threat to the survival of every living being on earth. |

Revelation 8:10,11 |
Comments |
| Then the third angel sounded. And a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. And the name of the star is Wormwood; and a third of the waters became wormwood; and many men died from the water, because it was made bitter. |
The correlation between the judgments of the trumpets
and those of the seven bowls is still present here. The third trumpet and the third bowl both strike the rivers and springs of water, making them undrinkable. |

Revelation 8:10,11 |
Comments |
| And a great star fell from
heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of
water. And the name of the star is Wormwood; and a third of the waters became wormwood. |
Here again, the impact of the bowl is far
greater than that of the trumpet. In fact, whereas the trumpet struck only «a third of the rivers» and «a third of the waters», the third bowl strikes «the rivers and springs of water». |
Revelation 16:4 |
|
| Then the third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 6 |
Revelation 15:2,3 |
Comments |
| And I saw something like a sea
of glass mingled with fire, and those who have the victory over the beast, over his image
and over his mark and over the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having
harps of God. And they sing the song of Moses, the servant of God. |
As we have seen in our last lessons, the seven bowls
remind us of the plagues which struck Egypt, in the time of Moses. This link between the two series of divine punishments was already announced in the scene introducing the seven bowls. In fact, this scene presents the redeemed singing the song of Moses, to praise God for having saved them from the enemy. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 7 |
| Exodus 7:19-24 : The river and springs of water also turned into blood. |
| Then the Lord spoke to Moses,
«Say to Aaron, "Take your rod and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt,
over their streams, over their rivers, over their ponds, and over all their pools of
water, that they may become blood. And there shall be blood throughout all the land of
Egypt, both in vessels of wood and vessels of stone."» And Moses and Aaron did so, just as the Lord commanded. So he lifted up the rod and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants. And all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood. The fish that were in the river died, the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink the water of the river. So there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt. (...) And Pharaoh's heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, as the Lord had said. (...) So all the Egyptians dug all around the river for water to drink, because they could not drink the water of the river. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 8 |
Revelation 15:1; 16:2-4 |
Comments |
| Then I saw another sign in
heaven, great and marvelous: seven angels having the seven last plagues. (...) So the first went and poured out his bowl upon the earth (...). Then the second angel poured out his bowl on the sea (...). Then the third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water. |
From the scene introducing the seven bowls, to the
third bowl, the action has moved from one place to another, following this itinerary: - heaven; - earth; - the sea; - the springs of water. This sequence is not the result of coincidence. Its purpose is to remind us of two important messages... |
If I Were Told the Future |
|
The Springs of Water Turned to Blood |
Lesson 84 |
Screen 9 |
Exodus 20:8-11 |
Comments |
| Remember the Sabbath day, to
keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work (...). For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it. |
First, the sequence «heaven, earth, sea, and springs of water» invites us to return to our Creator, and to keep holy His day of rest, the Sabbath. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 10 |
Revelation 14:6,7 |
Comments |
| Then I saw another angel flying
in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the
earth - to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people - saying with a loud voice, «Fear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.» |
Second, the sequence «heaven,
earth, sea, and springs of water» reminds us that it is all the more important to
return to God our Creator since the hour of His judgment has come. Now, let's note what follows... |
If I Were Told the Future |
|
The Springs of Water Turned to Blood |
Lesson 84 |
Screen 11 |
Revelation 16:4-7 |
Comments |
| Then the third angel poured out
his bowl on the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood. And I heard the angel
of the waters saying: «You are righteous, O Lord, the One who is and who was and who is to be, because You have judged these things. For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink. For it is their just due.» And I heard another from the altar saying, «Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are Your judgments.» |
Indeed, the message of the sequence «heaven, earth, sea, and springs of water» is immediately confirmed by the third bowl, proclaiming the carrying out of God's judgment! |
If I Were Told the Future |
|
The Springs of Water Turned to Blood |
Lesson 84 |
Screen 12 |
| The true and righteous judgment punishes the oppressor of God's people: |
| «For they have shed the blood
of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink. For it is their just due.
(...) Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are Your judgments.» (REVELATION
16:6,7) «True and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her.» (REVELATION 19:2) «Your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that you endure, (...) [are] manifest evidence of the righteous judgment of God, (...) since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you, (...) when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.» (2 THESSALONIANS 1:4-8) |
If I Were Told the Future |
|
The Springs of Water Turned to Blood |
Lesson 84 |
Screen 13 |
Revelation 13:15,17 |
Comments |
| (...) that the image of the
beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to
be killed. And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark. |
In the lesson «The
Time of Jacob's Trouble», we have seen that, after the pouring out of the first two
bowls, Satan will lead men to believe that God's people are the cause of these calamities,
since they refuse to observe Sunday as day of rest. A death decree will then be issued against these believers who remain faithful to God and His commandments. |
If I Were Told the Future |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 14 |
Revelation 16:4-6 |
Comments |
| Then the third angel poured out
his bowl on the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood. And I heard the angel of the waters saying: «You are righteous, O Lord, the One who is and who was and who is to be, because You have judged these things. For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink. For it is their just due.» |
Since God will protect His people during the plagues,
this death decree won't have any effect. However, this additional effort to annihilate the faithful believers will really fill the «bowl» of God's wrath to the brim, and this is why the judgment of the third bowl is pronounced with such power. |

The Springs of Water Turned to Blood |
Lesson 84 |
Screen 15 |
Revelation 13:10 |
Comments |
| He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. | So, the seven bowls of the wrath of God
are judgments carried out on the basis of reciprocity: unrepentant men are treated just as
they have treated God's people. The third bowl is the most eloquent example of this reciprocity. |
Matthew 7:2 |
|
| For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same measure you use, it will be measured back to you. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 16 |
Revelation 17:5,6 |
Comments |
| And on her forehead a name was
written: «Mystery, Babylon the great, the mother of harlots and of the abominations of
the earth.» And I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. |
In fact, Babylon was found guilty of shedding the blood of the prophets of God, the saints, and the martyrs of Jesus... |
Revelation 18:21,24 |
|
| Thus with violence the great city
Babylon shall be thrown down, and shall not be found anymore. (...) And in her was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who were slain on the earth. |

| Then the third angel poured out
his bowl on the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood. And I heard the angel of the waters saying: «You are righteous, O Lord, the One who is and who was and who is to be, because You have judged these things. For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink. For it is their just due.» |
... and, consequently, the judgment of the third bowl, based on the principle of reciprocity, gives Babylon and all those who support her blood to drink. |
If I Were Told the Future |
|
The Springs of Water Turned to Blood |
Lesson 84 |
Screen 18 |
| The reciprocity of the third bowl's judgment is also described elsewhere: |
| «Rejoice over her, O heaven,
and you holy apostles and prophets, for God has avenged you on [Babylon]! (...) And in her
was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who were slain on the earth.»
(REVELATION 18:20,24) «The nations were angry, and Your wrath has come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that You should reward Your servants the prophets and the saints, and those who fear Your name, small and great, and should destroy those who destroy the earth.» (REVELATION 11:18) «Therefore, indeed, I send you prophets, wise men, and scribes: some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute from city to city, that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth.» (MATTHEW 23:34,35) |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 19 |
Revelation 6:9,10 |
Comments |
| When He opened the fifth seal, I
saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the
testimony which they held. And they cried with a loud voice, saying, «How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?» |
The righteous judgment of the holy and true Lord, at the time of the third bowl, will also answer the request of the martyrs in the fifth seal, as we have seen in the lesson «The Souls Under the Altar». |
Revelation 16:5-7 |
|
| You are righteous, O Lord, the One who is and who was and who is to be, because You have judged these things. For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink. (...) True and righteous are Your judgments. |

Screen 20 |
Revelation 21:6 |
Comments |
| I am the Alpha and the Omega, the
Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. |
The third bowl, like the previous ones,
also bears a symbolic message. In fact, before the period of probation comes to an end, each of us is invited to accept Jesus Christ's living water which leads to eternal life. |
John 7:37 |
|
| Jesus stood and cried out,
saying, «If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.» |

Screen 21 |
John 4:14 |
Comments |
| Whoever drinks of the water that
I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life. |
This living water, which Jesus offers us
today, symbolizes a life revived through the work of the Holy Spirit within us. This water, «springing up into everlasting life», will completely quench our spiritual thirst. |
John 6:35 |
|
| And Jesus said to them, «(...) He who believes in Me shall never thirst.» |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 22 |
Jeremiah 2:13 |
Comments |
| They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters, and hewn themselves cisterns - broken cisterns that can hold no water. | Unfortunately, men reject the living water that God offers them, preferring to follow their own way, which will inevitably lead them to death and loss. |
Proverbs 14:12 |
|
| There is a way which seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 23 |
Revelation 17:1,2 |
Comments |
| Then one of the seven angels who
had the seven bowls came and talked with me, saying to me, «Come, I will show you the judgment of the great harlot. (...) The inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication.» |
As a spiritual beverage, men choose the wine of Babylon, that is, an intoxicating mixture made up of seductive but deceitful doctrines. |
Revelation 18:2,3 |
|
| Babylon the great is fallen, is
fallen! (...) For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. |
If I Were Told the Future |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 24 |
Revelation 14:9,10 |
Comments |
| If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. | Having rejected God's living water, and preferred the wine of Babylon, men will soon have to drink the wine of the wrath of God, contained in the seven bowls of His anger. |
If I Were Told the Future |
|
The Springs of Water Turned to Blood |
Lesson 84 |
Screen 25 |
Amos 8:11-13 |
Comments |
| «Behold, the days are coming,»
says the Lord, «that I will send a famine on the land, not a famine of bread, nor a
thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord. They shall wander from sea to sea, and from north to east; they shall run to and fro, seeking the word of the Lord, but shall not find it. In that day the fair virgins and strong young men shall faint from thirst.» |
So the bowls will cause not only a physical, but also
a spiritual thirst. It will no longer be possible to quench this thirst, since God's Spirit will have withdrawn from the earth. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 26 |
Isaiah 65:11-14 |
Comments |
| «But you are those who forsake
the Lord (...). When I spoke, you did not hear, but did evil before My eyes, and chose
that in which I do not delight.» Therefore thus says the Lord God: «Behold, My servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; behold, My servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; behold, My servants shall rejoice, but you shall be ashamed; behold, My servants shall sing for joy of heart, but you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and wail for grief of spirit.» |
Whereas the third bowl deprives unrepentant men of springs of drinkable water, God's people will be protected and supplied with pure water. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 27 |
Judges 15:18,19 |
Comments |
| Then [Samson] became very
thirsty; so he cried out to the Lord and said, «You have given this great deliverance by the hand of Your servant; and now shall I die of thirst and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?» So God split the hollow place that is in Lehi, and water came out, and he drank; and his spirit returned, and he revived. |
The Word of God gives us other examples of people
miraculously supplied with drinking water. Samson was one of them. And we can find another very interesting example of this, earlier in biblical history. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 28 |
Exodus 17:3,5,6 |
Comments |
| And the people thirsted there
for water, and the people complained against Moses, and said, «Why is it you have brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst?» (...) And the Lord said to Moses, «Go on before the people, and take with you some of the elders of Israel. Also take in your hand your rod with which you struck the river, and go. Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock in Horeb; and you shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, that the people may drink.» |
After the deliverance of the Red Sea, which reminds us of the second bowl, God miraculously supplied His people with drinking water, making it come out of a rock, which now reminds us of the third bowl. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 29 |
Nehemiah 9:15 |
Comments |
| [You] brought them water out of the rock for their thirst, and told them to go in to possess the land which You had sworn to give them. | Before entering the Promised Land, we will
go through the desert during the pouring out of the seven bowls. But water, both physical and spiritual, will be supplied. |
1 Corinthians 10:1,4 |
|
| I do not want you to be unaware
that all our fathers were under the cloud, all passed through the sea, (...) and all drank
the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 30 |
Isaiah 48:20-22 |
Comments |
| Go forth from Babylon! Flee from
the Chaldees! With a voice of singing, declare, proclaim this, utter it even to the end of
the earth; say, «The Lord has redeemed His servant Jacob!» And they did not thirst when He led them through the deserts; He caused the waters to flow from the rock for them; He also split the rock, and the waters gushed out. «There is no peace,» says the Lord, «for the wicked.» |
So, the same deliverance which was granted to the Hebrew people who came out of Egypt will be granted to spiritual Israel - God's people -, at the fall of Babylon. |
If I Were Told the Future |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 31 |
| God will deliver His people from the thirst caused by the third bowl: |
| «These are the ones who come
out of the great tribulation, and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of
the Lamb. (...) And He who sits on the throne will dwell among them. They shall neither
hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; (...) for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne
will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters.» (REVELATION 7:14-17) «They shall neither hunger nor thirst, neither heat nor sun shall strike them; for He who has mercy on them will lead them, even by the springs of water He will guide them.» (ISAIAH 49:10) «Do not seek what you should eat or what you should drink, nor have an anxious mind. For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you need these things. But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.» (LUKE 12:29-31) |

Isaiah 33:14-16 |
Comments |
| The sinners in Zion are afraid;
fearfulness has seized the hypocrites: «Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?» He who walks righteously and speaks uprightly (...): he will dwell on high; his place of defense will be the fortress of rocks; bread will be given him, his water will be sure. |
Let's persevere in Jesus Christ. If we cling to God and His will, He will cover us and protect us. The third bowl, just like the other six, won't affect us, for God will guarantee drinking water to each one of us. |

Lesson 84 |
Screen 33 |
| Let's pray before closing this lesson: |
| Lord, Your Word says: «The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" And let him who thirsts come. And whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.» (Revelation 22:17) This wonderful invitation is still given to us today, and we sincerely thank You for it. Please help us to always choose Your living water, rather than the poisoned wine of Babylon, so that we may inherit eternal life. In Jesus Christ we pray. Amen. |
