22:1And he showed me a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne of God and of the Lamb,

2 in the middle of its street. And on either side of the river was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations

1Then he brought me back to the door of the house; and behold, water was flowing from under the threshold of the house toward the east, for the house faced east. And the water was flowing down from under, from the right side of the house, from south of the altar.2And he brought me out by way of the north gate and led me around on the outside to the outer gate by way of the gate that faces east. And behold, water was trickling from the south side.

7 Now when I had returned, behold, on the bank of the river there were very many trees on the one side and on the other.

8 Then he said to me, “These waters go out toward the eastern region and go down into the Arabah; then they go toward the sea, being made to flow into the sea, and the waters of the sea become fresh.

9 “And it will come about that every living creature which swarms in every place where the river goes, will live. And there will be very many fish, for these waters go there, and the others become fresh; so everything will live where the river goes.

11 But its swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they will be left for salt.

12 And by the river on its bank, on one side and on the other, will grow all kinds of trees for food. Their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. They will bear every month because their water flows from the sanctuary, and their fruit will be for food and their leaves for healing.

• Primarily multiple salts• 2 parts Sodium Chloride (table salt)• 4 parts Magnesium Chloride• One part Calcium Chloride

• Total saltiness 5 to 10 times that of the oceans

Page 21: A River of Water of Life
Page 22: A River of Water of Life

• Constant increase of salinity

• Water level dropping 1 meter per year

• No significant water left by 2050

• Old and New ideas on saving the Dead Sea• Theodore Herzl • Proposed it in Bro. Russell’s day• Mediterranean Sea as water source with

electrical power generation (Altneuland, 1902)

• Walter Lowdrmilk (1950’s)• Again proposed as diversion of Jordan

ramps up• Current Dead-Med & Dead-Red proposals• So much diversion in place (by Israel &

Jordan) it is forecast to be completely gone by 2050

14:1 Behold, a day is coming for the LORD when the spoil taken from you will be divided among you. 2 For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city will be captured, the houses plundered, the women ravished, and half of the city exiled, but the rest of the people will not be cut off from the city. 3 Then the LORD will go forth and fight against those nations, as when He fights on a day of battle.

4 And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which is in front of Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in its middle from east to west by a very large valley, so that half of the mountain will move toward the north and the other half toward the south.

5 And you will flee by the valley of My mountains, for the valley of the mountains will reach to Azel; yes, you will flee just as you fled before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD, my God, will come, and all the holy ones with Him!

6 And it will come about in that day that there will be no light; the luminaries will dwindle.7 For it will be a unique day which is known to the LORD, neither day nor night, but it will come about that at evening time there will be light8 And it will come about in that day that living waters will flow out of Jerusalem, half of them toward the eastern sea and the other half toward the western sea; it will be in summer as well as in winter. 9 And the LORD will be king over all the earth; in that day the LORD Will be the only one, and His name the only one

They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain, For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD As the waters cover the sea.

And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is among men, and He shall dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be among them,

Page 39: A River of Water of Life

…and He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there shall no longer be any death; there shall no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away
