"The Secret of GOD," as revealed by John in the Revelation of Christ, chapter 16:1, with a renewed mind and our victory as foretold.

We are now by way of reminder looking into what some Bible translators labeled the wrath of GOD and the seven bowls of that wrath. In our enlighten position as a redeemed human we see it as the Passion of GOD continued from chapter 15. That said lets get into it shall we?

Revelation 16:1, 2, 3 "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.
And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.
And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea." (KJV)

Revelation 16:1, 2, 3 "Then I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, "Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God."
So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and harmful and painful sores came upon the people who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.
The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became like the blood of a corpse, and every living thing died that was in the sea." (ESV)

Revelation 16:1, 2, 3 "Then I heard the sound of a loud voice coming out of the inner shrine, commanding the seven Shepherd-Messengers to pour out upon the earth the weight of the passion of GOD which had been loaded onto the golden fire-pans they received from the brazen altar of sacrifice. (A golden "fire-pan" was for the purpose of carrying fire, in order to burn incense on the day of Atonement once a year in the ultimate place of worship. Rev. 8:3, This was a preparation peculiar to the day of expiation. "On other days it was the custom of the priests to take fire from the brazen altar in a silver censer, but on the great Day of Atonement the high priest took the fire from the great altar in a golden censer; And when he was come down from the great altar, he took incense from one of the priests, who brought it to him, and went with it to the golden altar; And while he offered the incese the people prayed without in silence." Quoted from Sir Isaac Newton's writings.

The source of every reference to fire in the Book of Revelation would always be from the Brazen Altar of sacrifice, symbolizing the Cross where the Lamb of GOD died humanity's death. (See the extended notes on the Brazen Altar of Sacrifice at the end of this chapter.)

And the first one departed and poured the contents of his golden fire-pan upon the earth and it broke out in terrible and grievous sores upon all those who worshiped the image and bore its mark. (Reminding of the sixth Egyptian plague. The broken distorted body - Jesus was wounded by our transgressions.)

And the third did the same to the rivers and fountains which all became like blood. (Every single water source will give testimony to the covenant sealed in the shed blood of the Lamb.)"

With our next visit we shall continue on with verse 4, the LORD willing. Until then may He remove the veal of delusion and unbelief from the eyes of all peoples of the earth in their time of need.
