   Stupid liar:   
      
         • Exodus 3:2 – The bush burned with fire but was not consumed.   
      
         • 2 Kings 2:11 – Elijah was taken up by a whirlwind with chariots   
           and horses of fire—heavenly, not earthly fire.   
      
         • Ezekiel 1:4–13 – The living creatures and the throne vision   
           were surrounded by fire that flashed like lightning and moved   
           like living energy.   
      
         • Daniel 7:9–10 – God’s throne was fiery flames with wheels of   
           burning fire, and a river of fire flowed before Him.   
      
         • Isaiah 6:6–7 – A seraph took a live coal from the heavenly   
           altar—supernatural fire used for purification   
      
         • Revelation 15:2 – The sea of glass “mingled with fire” before   
           God’s throne, a heavenly reality.

   You just sat there and claimed the Scripture says "nothing about a   
   non-earthly fire". Yet the Bible is filled with references to fire that   
   is not earthly but yet exists in the spirit realm.

   The Stupid liar is the one who has no Scripture to support his claims.   
   He PRETENDS that if something doesn't operate by earth physics as he   
   knows it, then it can't be "literal". Yet God the Father Himself is   
   spirit, not bound by earth-physics, and yes a "LITERAL" Being.   
      
   --   
   Have you heard the good news Christ died for our sins (†), and God   
   raised Him from the dead?   
      
   That Christ died for our sins shows we're sinners who deserve the death   
   penalty. That God raised Him from the dead shows Christ's death   
   satisfied God's righteous demands against our sin (Romans 3:25; 1 John   
   2:1-2). This means God can now remain just, while forgiving you of your   
   sins, and saving you from eternal damnation.   
      
   On the basis of Christ's death and resurrection for our sins, call on   
   the name of the Lord to save you: "For 'everyone who calls on the name   
   of the Lord will be saved'" (Romans 10:13, ESV).
