Rivers turn to blood
The pouring out of the third bowl of God's wrath, like the third trumpet blast, has an effect on the freshwater springs. "And the third poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water. And they became blood. And I heard the angel of the waters say, You, the One who is and who was, you Loyal One, are righteous because you have made these decisions, for they have shed the blood of saints and of prophets, and you have given them blood to drink. They deserve it. And I heard the altar say, Yes, God Almighty, true and righteous are your judgments." (Revelation 16:4-7)
If there was still some hope that the rivers would bring fresh water to the sea and that the sea could live again as a result, this hope is dashed by the third angel. These "rivers and the fountains of waters" represent the supposedly refreshing sources of guidance and wisdom that the world recognizes, for example, the political, medical, commercial, scientific, educational, social and religious philosophies by which people's actions and decisions are determined. Instead of looking up to Jehovah, the fountain of life, for life-giving truth, they have hewn out broken cisterns and drunk in great draughts the wisdom of this world, which is foolishness with God. (Jeremiah 2:13; 1 Corinthians 1:19; 2:6; 3:19; Psalm 36:9) This polluted “water“ has led to people incurring bloodguilt, for example, being encouraged to shed blood on an immeasurable scale in the wars of the last century, in which over a hundred million people lost their lives. Especially in Christendom, where the two world wars broke out, people were "in a hurry to shed innocent blood", including the blood of God's own people. (Isaiah 59:7; Jeremiah 2:34) Through the misuse of blood, mankind has incurred bloodguilt by transgressing Jehovah's righteous law and using large amounts of blood for transfusions. (Genesis 9:3-5; 17:14; Acts 15:28,29) She has already felt the effects of this, as blood transfusions have spread diseases such as AIDS, hepatitis and others, causing much suffering. We don't even want to talk about blood-drinking Satanists and the blood-altering poison vaccination of Babylon at this point. But all those who have brought blood guilt upon themselves will soon be punished by suffering the death penalty and being crushed in the “great winepress of God's wrath.“ (Revelation 14:19,2
In the days of Moses, when the waters of the Nile turned to blood, the Egyptians were able to stay alive by seeking other sources of water. (Exodus 7:24) But today, when a spiritual plague has come upon Satan's world, there is no life-giving water to be found anywhere. The pouring out of the third bowl results in the announcement that "the rivers and the fountains of waters" of the world have become blood and that all who drink of it will die spiritually.
