   ...Which alludes to the fact that the Bible repeatedly shows the lost   
   are not God's children, but rather the children of the devil (John 8:44;   
   1 John 3:8-10). James tries to equate people burning their children in   
   the fire with God burning His children in the fire. He doesn't burn His   
   children in the fire. He burns the Christ rejecting sons of the devil.   
      
   --   
   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).
