The Fiery Wrath of God

                                 Leviticus 6:8-13 KJB

The trespass offering was a type of sin offering that pertained more to the offense committed by a person against his neighbor than it did to an offense against God, although an offense against one's neighbor is also a sin against God. Leviticus 6:1-7 (KJB).

The priests had to perform the burnt offering that followed the trespass offering in exact ways. The priests were never to allow the wood of the burnt offering on the altar to ever go out. Leviticus 6:12-13 (KJB). This requirement symbolized the eternal lake of fire which God created to utterly destroy forever all sins, evil, spiritual death, the Devil, and Hell itself in the end of the world. Deuteronomy 32:22; Matthew 25:41; II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 20:14-15; Psalm 75:3 (KJB). The fact that God prepared the everlasting fire "for the Devil and his angels" means that God will never use it to ever burn any of His living humans that He creates and loves. In the beginning of mankind, God cursed only the Devil and all evil, not His living humans whom He creates in His image. Genesis 3:14-20; Genesis 1:26-27 (KJB). God can also never lose anything He has ever created, certainly not to the Devil. Ecclesiastes 3:14; Psalm 111: 7-8 (KJB). In the parable of Matthew 25:31-46, Christ will cast only the "cursed" into the lake of fire in the end of the world. These cursed happens to be the dead and evil natures that the Devil has planted into the inner nature of all humans Genesis 2:17 (KJB). The Devil planted the curse, not God. Christ will use His fiery wrath against evil to separate His living and righteous humans from their deaths so that He can forever save them from eternal death that the Devil desires. The "sheep" and the "goats" of this parable are inside every human. Matthew 13:36-43; Revelation 5:11-14; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5; Revelation 22:11-12 (KJB).

The priests had to put on a "linen garment" and separate the ashes from the burnt offering and "put them beside the altar." Leviticus 6:10 (KJB). This act of the priest symbolized that God will use His fiery wrath against evil to separate the good and living natures of humans from their dead and evil natures. Matthew 13:36-43 (KJB).

The priest then had to take off his garment and put on other garments. This act of the priest symbolized that in the end of the world, God will separate the good and living natures of all humans, not already saved by grace, from them, and He will recreate them by clothing them in a new nature. This has to be true because the burnt offering itself symbolized that God will never utterly destroy any of His creations, but He will purge all evil from His creations by the use of His fiery wrath against evil. Genesis 8:20-21; II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 21:5 (KJB).

The priest then had to carry the ashes outside of the camp and leave them in a "clean place." This act of the priest symbolized that Christ will appear to all of His living humans "on the earth, and under the earth" in the end of the world, and He will cause them all to repent and return to faith in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior so that He can use His fiery wrath against evil to purge all sins, evil, and spiritual deaths from them and cleanse His living humans so that He can recreate them to be righteous and worthy to inherit an eternal life on His recreated earth. II Peter 3:9-13; Matthew 13:36-43; I Corinthians 3:11-15 (KJB).

The wood that the priests used to keep the fire ever burning symbolized the fuel that God will use to keep the lake of fire burning forever which would not be anything He has ever created, but instead will be His eternal fiery wrath against evil which naturally issues forever from His Holy nature. Deuteronomy 32:22 (KJB).
