       Now, these final two Bowl Judgments are the worst. The sixth Bowl Judgment is this: “The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east. And I saw, coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs. For they are demonic spirits, performing signs, who go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty” (Revelation 16:12-14, ESV). So, the sixth Bowl Judgment has two parts. First, the angel of the Lord pours out his bowl on the Euphrates River, which John here calls the “great river Euphrates.” Remember, the Euphrates River is the most significant river in the middle east. It is the longest for one, and also established the eastern boarder for the land that God gave to Israel in the Old Testament. Regardless, the river is dried up by the angel in order that the kings from the east could cross over it.
