You either don't understand what I'm saying or are inadvertently misrepresenting what I said. No matter. Answer my question. Here, I'll offer it again:

God Himself is a consuming fire (Deuteronomy 4:24, 9:3; Hebrews 12:29). So is God literally fire? Assuming you are aware of John 4:24 and know that God is a Spirit and not literally a fire, then what does it mean that He is a consuming fire?

Grace and peace to you.

The scripture clearly teaches in context that God will literally be a consuming fire, as the context states God "Literally" shook the earth, and will in the future literally shake the heavens and earth, only the eternal kingdom will be left, that cant be shaken

Hebrews 12:25-29KJV
25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29 For our God is a consuming fire.

Psalm 50:3KJV
3 Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.

Psalm 68:2KJV
2 As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.

Nahum 1:5KJV
5 The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.

Luke 21:25-28KJV
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Revelation 6:12-17KJV
12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

Revelation 11:v.15and18 ;
15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
18 And the nations will be angry., and GOD's wrath is come,...


Revelation 5:v.10 - And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we will reign on the earth.

Matthew 5:v. 5 - Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

On the other hand, out side of GOD's kingdom there will be the hell's fire, a furnace of fire. And they will shout, saying: Lord, Lord, we have prophesied in thy name; in thy name we have cast out devils; in thy name we have done many wonderful works. Lord, Lord, open to us. I never knew you that work iniquity. They will cry/wail and will gnash of teeth.

Thank you for those citations, Oseas.

Not sure if I understand exactly what you're saying here about those who are sent away at the Judgment. It is interesting that you bring up the idea of a furnace of fire. A word search turns up a lot of Scriptural references, as I'm sure you would imagine. I would offer these verses from the ESV) and ask how you would reconcile them. Perhaps you will agree with what I say here. I think these citations should speak to Truth7t7, too.

Nebuchadnezzar's furnace (and the fire therein) was very literal, a literal furnace, with literal fire:

  • "And whoever does not fall down and worship shall immediately be cast into a burning fiery furnace... And whoever does not fall down and worship shall be cast into a burning fiery furnace... Now if you are ready when you hear the sound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music, to fall down and worship the image that I have made, well and good. But if you do not worship, you shall immediately be cast into a burning fiery furnace. And who is the god who will deliver you out of my hands? ... If this be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king... Then Nebuchadnezzar was filled with fury, and the expression of his face was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He ordered the furnace heated seven times more than it was usually heated. And he ordered some of the mighty men of his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace. Then these men were bound in their cloaks, their tunics, their hats, and their other garments, and they were thrown into the burning fiery furnace. Because the king's order was urgent and the furnace overheated, the flame of the fire killed those men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell bound into the burning fiery furnace... Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the door of the burning fiery furnace; he declared, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, come out, and come here!” Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out from the fire." (Daniel 3:6-26)

But God's "furnace" (His "fire") is very different. It is most certainly not woodenly literal, but rather figurative, and symbolic of a greater reality:

  • "...the LORD has taken you and brought you out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be a people of his own inheritance, as you are this day." (Deuteronomy 4:20)
  • "...for they are your people, and your heritage, which you brought out of Egypt, from the midst of the iron furnace." (1 Kings 8:51)
  • "The words of the LORD are pure words, like silver refined in a furnace on the ground, purified seven times." (Psalm 12:6)
  • "For my days pass away like smoke, and my bones burn like a furnace." (Psalm 102:3)
  • "The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold, and the LORD tests hearts." (Proverbs 17:3)
  • "The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold, and a man is tested by his praise." (Proverbs 27:21)
  • "His rock shall pass away in terror, and his officers desert the standard in panic,” declares the LORD, whose fire is in Zion, and whose furnace is in Jerusalem." (Isaiah 31:9)
  • "Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver; I have tried you in the furnace of affliction." (Isaiah 48:10)
  • "...that I commanded your fathers when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, Listen to my voice, and do all that I command you. So shall you be my people, and I will be your God..." (Jeremiah 11:4)
  • "As one gathers silver and bronze and iron and lead and tin into a furnace, to blow the fire on it in order to melt it, so I will gather you in my anger and in my wrath, and I will put you in and melt you." (Ezekiel 22:20)
  • "As silver is melted in a furnace, so you shall be melted in the midst of it, and you shall know that I am the LORD; I have poured out my wrath upon you.” (Ezekiel 22:22)
  • "...and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." (Matthew 13:42)
  • "and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." (Matthew 13:50)
Grace and peace to you.

Just as Sodom and Gomorrah were "Literally" destroyed by fire and brimstone from God out of heaven, the same will take place at the second coming, as clearly seen below

Luke 17:29-30KJV
29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

Genesis 19:23-25KJV

23 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
24 Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven;
25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.

Jesus Christ Returns In Fire And Final Judgement, Dissolving This Existing Earth By Fire, Immediately After The Tribulation

This Existing Heaven And Earth Will Be (Replaced) By The New Heaven, Earth, Jerusalem, A New Creation, At The Return Of Jesus Christ

(Behold, I Make All Things New)


2 Peter 3:10-13KJV
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 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?
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

Revelation 21:1-5KJV
1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

Matthew 24:29-30KJV
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

1 Corinthians 3:13KJV
13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.

Luke 17:29-30KJV
29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.


2 Thessalonians 1:7-9KJV
7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
8 In flaming fire taking vengeance
on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;

Malachi 3:2KJV
2 But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap:

Psalm 46:6KJV
6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.

Psalm 50:3KJV
3 Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.

Psalm 97:5KJV
5 The hills melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

Isaiah 66:15KJV
15 For, behold, the Lord will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.

Zechariah 14:12KJV
12 And this shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.

Nahum 1:5-6KJV
5 The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.
6 Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him.

Revelation 20:9KJV
9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.

Nope. Jesus Christ executes the final Judgment, which IS the "fire" that He comes in. You actually say that here, even in your refutation of it. God's final judgment is also the "fire" in the "lake" where the unrepentant will dwell in eternity.

This Existing Heaven And Earth Will Be (Replaced) By The New Heaven, Earth, Jerusalem, A New Creation, At The Return Of Jesus Christ (Behold, I Make All Things New)
Nope. You even cite Revelation 21:5 here, which I have previously. God is making all things new. He is not making all new things.

You still have not attempted to answer my question. Again, since God the Father is a Spirit (John 4:24), what does it mean to you that He is "a consuming/devouring fire" (Deuteronomy 4:24, Deuteronomy 9:3, Hebrews 12:29)?

Grace and peace to you.

We Disagree

Thanks for the conversation Pin, we have run around the bush a few times, our beliefs have been presented

My Belief:

Jesus Christ returns in fire and final judgement, dissolving the heavens and earth by his fire (The End)

The New Heaven, Earth, Jerusalem, will be revealed in the twinkling of an eye at the second coming, judgement complete, eternity begins

Jesus Is The Lord

Revelation gives us the correct sequence of events:
The next prophesied event is the Sixth Seal, when fire will be involved and the world changed preparatory to all the end time events. Revelation 6:12 to 19:10
Then Jesus will Return and commence His Millennium reign. There is no fire at that time. Revelation 19:11 to 20:10

After the Millennium comes the GWT Judgment and the old earth will be burned up and the new heavens and earth will come. Revelation 20:11 to 22:21

I strongly disagree, the sixth seal Revelation 6:12-17 takes place towards the end of the future 3.5 year tribulation

The Antichrist will be revealed in Jerusalem, the 3.5 tribulation starts

The Two Witnesses of Revelation 11:3-18 stand before the Antichrist for this entire time of 3.5 years bringing the plagues seen in Revelation

The two Witnesses are physically killed in Jerusalem, lay in the street of Jerusalem for 3.5 days, they are raised to heaven in the sight of the world watching

The 2nd woe takes place in the great earthquake, as the 3rd woe follows quickly in the 7th angel sounding in the second coming and end of this world

Revelation 11:18 is the "Final Judgement" (The End)

Not sure if I understand exactly what you're saying here about those who are sent away at the Judgment. It is interesting that you bring up the idea of a furnace of fire. A word search turns up a lot of Scriptural references, as I'm sure you would imagine. I would offer these verses from the ESV) and ask how you would reconcile them.Perhaps you will agree with what I say here.

First thanks for your reply.
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. 2 Tim.3:v.16-17
In my understanding, the material things are figures of spiritual things. The parables of our Lord JESUS are good examples.

Quote: You said: "Nebuchadnezzar's furnace (and the fire therein) was very literal, a literal furnace, with literal fire:"
What does the Holy Spirit teach us about that scenario? Firstly he shows us there was a great challenge.

The challenge that was made to GOD
Satan made a great challenge through Nebuchadnezar to GOD. Would GOD had power and would be able to save His servants from the burning fiery furnace of the idolater Nebuchadnezzar, and of Satan?

The challenge made to the servants of GOD
Satan through Nebuchadnezzar said to the three servants of GOD if they were ready to fall down and worship the image that he had made, if so, it would be well and good, said the Devil.

The hour of the test of GOD's servants
Satan prepared a variety of instruments and sounds to test the servants of GOD: horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music. The servants of GOD would hear that mess of sounds, and should fall down and worship the image
. What do these instruments and distincts sounds mean for us today? They signify the proliferation of denominations and devilish sects, and pseudo-Christians movements called gospel, and satanic religions, and all kind of doctrines and teachings, even doctrines of demons, and a flood of apostasies, among others devilish things.

Satan challenges, and will challeng us saying:
Now if you hear the sounds I have prepared, and fall down and worship the image that I will still make, well and good, the contrary all will be killed - Revelation 13 - , and who is the god who will deliver you out of my hands? ... If this be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us out of your hand, O Satan.

THE DELIEVER OF GOD'S PEOPLE IN THE CURRENT TIME
Daniel 12:v.1-3 and 11-12
1 At that time shall Michael stand up -Revelation 12:v.7-17 and 1 Thes. 4:v.16-, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time-Matthew 24:v.15-25- : and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.



Quote: You said: >>>But God's "furnace" (His "fire") is very different. It is most certainly not woodenly literal, but rather figurative, and symbolic of a greater reality:<<<

I cannot imagine how will be not only the despair, but also the torment that they will suffer in the outer darkness and fiery furnace, them which rejected the Truth of GOD, and will be separated and cast out of God's kingdom that will be established from now on, day after day.

Until now the grace, goodness, and love of God has been manifested to all creatures or all humanity in these last 2,000 years, this is the image of God revealed by His Word, but they do not know nor imagine the image of God such as a devouring or consuming fire. They will know from now on.
Much was preached about eternal punishment, but no one ever understood at what time or when it would begin. Now, now, the eternal punishment has already begun but the people have not realized it yet, knowing that a time has been preordained to begin. But the people did not take into account yet, that the current punishments that are being poured on the nations it will NEVER end, it will be forever, because there is no more, nor will there be sacrifices for salvation beyond those made, at last the sacrifice of JESUS.

We are living in the last decade of the Devil's world, and the last week or the 7 years of the week 70th are within this last decade. THE END of all things arrived.

Isaiah 33:v. 10-14
10 Now will I rise, saith the Lord; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.

11 Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, as fire, shall devour you.

12 And the people shall be as the burnings of lime: as thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.

13 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge my might.

14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?

God Bless

This constitutes a shuffling and replacing of the Words of Revelation. You have read the consequences of doing that?
Consequences for truth, only glory in the Eternal kingdom in reward, can't wait!

The question is, where will Kiwi B Keraz B?
In Love, Jesus Is The Lord
