The saints are compatible with God's fire; they glorify in it; they uplift his self sacrificing character; they have been rebornAt this moment, in this time, the "church" as a whole, is NOT "Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat". 2 Peter 3:12.
Most are asleep with their "religion".
In flaming fire taking vengeance ON THEM...ALL the unsaved (Rom. 8:9) in "that day"!!
2Thes. 1:7-10.
Luke 17:28-30**.
**It will be a simultaneous event.
The saints are changed in a twinkling of an eye, to meet the Lord in the Air, but on the earth all the wicked will be burned up and destroyed.
The wicked are not compatible with God's fire; self focus is the priority; 'religious' rightness resists the self sacrificing nature of God and it consumes them. Being consumed is a consequence of an incompatible principle, it is not an arbitrary punishment. Judas resisted the love/ compassion /mercy ie, God's fire and it consumed him.
Satan, the head of incompatibility with a self sacrificing God will eventually implode.
Ezekiel 28:18
'So I made fire come from within you, and it consumed you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the sight of everyone watching you....'
