That is your words that you read into the Scripture.                     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.                     > Sometimes       > you need to get the rafter out of your eye, before getting a hair out       > of someone else.                     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.              > Enough of all the buffoonery, we need to stick to the Scriptures which       > is why we are mainly here.

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).              https://christrose.news/salvation              To automatically receive daily Bible teaching updates with colorful       images and website formatting, subscribe to my feed in a client like       Thunderbird:              https://www.christrose.news/feeds/posts/default              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
