(What will be the condition of the world, the antichrist, and his kingdom, by the time of the 6th vial?

At this point, the antichrist’s kingdom will be broken, like Egypt was, by all the plagues:)

 

Revelation 16:10c And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,

  11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.

 

(the sea:)

 

Revelation 8:8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood;

  9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.

 

Revelation 16:3 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.

 

(the rivers and fountains of water:)

 

Revelation 8:10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;

  11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.

 

Revelation 16:4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood.

  5 And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus.

  6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.

  7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.

 

(darkness:)

 

Revelation 8:12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.

 

Revelation 16:10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,

 

(fire:)

 

Revelation 9:18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.

 

Revelation 16:8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.

 

(vegetation destroyed:)

 

Revelation 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.

 

(torment:)

 

Revelation 9:5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.

  6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

 

Revelation 16:2 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.

  10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,

 

(Is this possibly why the antichrist wants to bring the kings and their armies from nations that are not yet broken like his kingdom?

Why do those kings need unclean spirits working miracles to bring them to Armageddon?

Possibly, because they, like many Egyptians in Exodus, must have seen Pharaoh at some point,

start seeing the antichrist as someone who cannot stop or prevent the plagues,

and that his kingdom is the hardest hit by all the plagues,

that they are probably beginning to see that he is not a god like he had been presenting himself.

Israel had probably been initially deceived by the antichrist, by his miracles, by his false prophet,

that may have initially seemed to be Elijah to many of them,

and by the antichrist allowing them to rebuild their temple and have sacrifices again.

Then Israel saw him go into the temple, to sit, possibly, on the mercy seat, declare himself to be God,

to have an image of him placed in the temple by the false prophet, and by his stopping the sacrifices.

Won’t Israel suddenly realize that he is the complete opposite of what they thought, that he is the most wicked,

and won’t many of them turn from him, refusing to worship him?

Then he turns on them with all the infamy of Haman & Hitler combined, to set out to kill them all.

Many flee, as Jesus warned, with many protected in Bozrah, in Edom, near Petra.

Others remain, but are persecuted, and eventually he, with the kings of the earth and their armies, invade Israel.

First, they gather at Armageddon, then launch into multiple battles around Israel, also around Bozrah, and against Jerusalem.

Terrible things are done to the Jews as they begin to take Judah, and half of Jerusalem.

To the world, and to many in Israel, it looks like this is the end of the Jews.

But there is one more vial of wrath coming!)
