The Fiery Wrath of God

                            Job 1:16 KJB 

A servant of Job reported to him that God sent a fire from Heaven and burned all of his sheep and killed all of his shepherds. But this servant only assumed that the fire came from God. Job 1:16 (KJB). Probably, lightning started the fire in a closed space, such as a canyon with a narrow entrance, and killed all the sheep and shepherds because they were trapped. This fire had to have come from the Devil because God had already given Satan complete control over the life of Job except that God would not allow the Devil to take Job's life. Job 1:9-12 (KJB). In our day, certain scientists have invented an intricate machine called HAARP. Supposedly, this machine can send powerful waves of energy into the upper atmosphere and cause terrible weather in other parts of the world. It is a weapon that can be used in war to cause continuous rain or snowfall that would greatly hamper an enemy's war effort. If humans can gain a certain amount of power over the weather, then Satan, who is much more intelligent than any human, could do the same. All hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and all other weather disasters, could be caused by the Devil who knows how to exert some kind of force into the atmosphere. 

Satan has his own, evil kingdom in the world, and when he came to talk with God be bragged that he could go anywhere in the world and do whatever he pleased to do. Job 1:6-7 (KJB). God indicated to Satan that He had a perfect servant named Job. God did not mean that Job was absolutely perfect, but that Job adhered to the good nature that God put into him better than any other human. Genesis 1:31 (KJB). God let Satan know that he did not have absolute power in the world. Job 1:6-8 (KJB). Satan claimed that Job did not serve God because he loved God, but he only served God because God gave him everything that he needed. Satan claimed that if God took away all of Job's possessions, then Job would curse God. Job 1:9-11 (KJB). In other words, Satan believed that Job's good nature that God had created could be made to so hate God that Job would become totally evil and lost from God's Love forever. Job 2:5; Job 2:9 (KJB). Satan believes that the powers of evil will eventually prove to be much stronger than the Love of God. The Devil believed that if he could ever prove that and if he ever got the chance, he would be able to murder God and take His place, but Jesus rose from the dead. Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB). 

Satan's encounter with God in the book of Job reveals his intention toward the entire human race. God allowed the Devil to do his worst to Job, and God allows the Devil to do his worst to the entire human race to prove that the power of evil, as strong as it is, can never utterly destroy the good and living nature that God puts into every human that He ever creates. Satan injects spiritual death into every human because all humans' sin. Genesis 2:17; Genesis 3:15; Romans 3:23 (KJB). But Christ judged the Devil on the cross when He suffered and died to take away all of the sins, evil, and spiritual deaths of all of His living humans to prove that His Love is much more powerful than the Devil and all of the forces of evil. Genesis 3:15; John 12:31-32; II Timothy 1:10; I John 2:2; John 5:28-29; I Timothy 4:10 (KJB). Job's faith in God never failed because God made Job realize that he had a Redeemer. Job 19:25-27 (KJB). Just as God would not allow the Devil to take Job's life, God will never allow the Devil to utterly destroy even one of His good and living humans because He sacrificed Himself to save them all. Colossians 1:15-23; Revelation 21:5 (KJB). God knew how to keep Job's faith alive, and God knows exactly how to return every living human that He ever creates to faith in Him as their Redeemer so that He can save them alive. John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). God will save all living humans by His grace who come to believe that He shed His blood to save them, and God will save the rest of humanity because He will cause them all to believe that He can save them by His use of His fiery wrath against evil. Matthew 26:28; John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14; Matthew 13:36-43; I Corinthians 3:11-15; Luke 3:16-17; II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB). 

The Fiery Wrath of God

                            II Chronicles 36:19 KJB

Every human has a good nature inside of them that God creates, but every human also has an evil nature that the Devil plants into them the moment they sin. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:26-27; Genesis 2:17; Genesis 3:15 (KJB). Young children who die before they can ever sin nevertheless inevitably would sin as soon as they become old enough to realize that they have intelligence and free will. Romans 5:12 (KJB). All humans are predestined to sin which makes all humans sinners even if they die before they can sin. Yet, Jesus takes all young children who die before they can sin to Heaven because they are innocent. Humans are responsible for their sins because their good natures allow those sins and will even excuse those sins, but humans are also not responsible for their sins because they inevitably sin. But in either case, God cannot endure sin in His universe because it is destructive and God is wholly pure and creative. But humans are fully responsible for the evil that they do because they must willfully and deliberately decide to practice cruelty and evil. Yet, every sin contains some evil because every sin and evil displays an alliance with the Devil to murder God and become independent of His control. The Devil lies to humans about how they can become little gods who do not need God, but the Devil actually only desires to use humans to attain his own goal to kill God and invent his own evil world. Once the Devil has used humans to achieve his goal, he will torture all humans forever until he turns them all into demons because he hates anything God has created. Job 2:5 (KJB). When the mob cried "crucify Him" to Pilate, and Pilate gave in to them, the voices of the entire human race joined in that shout and in Pilate's weakness. John 19:14-16; Acts 4:23-28 (KJB). 

God still loves all of His good and living humans that He creates in His image. His Love cannot fail, and so He intervenes in human history as many times as it takes to save them all from the Devil's attempts to utterly destroy them, including when He sacrificed Himself on a cross. I Corinthians 13:8; John 12:31-32 (KJB). God will use that same free will that causes all humans to sin to cause all living humans to choose to return to faith in Him as their Savior. John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). Because God's Love and compassion never change, God will save every living human who repents whether they are alive in the flesh or physically dead. Hebrews 13:8; John 11:25-26; John 5:28-29 (KJB). God has proven and will prove that His Love is Almighty, and He can never lose anything He has ever created to the Devil. I Corinthians 13:8; Ecclesiastes 3:14; John 5:28-29; II Timothy 1:10; Luke 20:38; Revelation 1:17-18; I Timothy 4:10; Luke 3:6; Revelation 21:5 (KJB). 

The evil nature of humans is very strong, and from time to time in human history it takes control in the lives of most humans. Most of the people and the rulers of Judah had become so evil that God allowed the evil Babylonians to conquer them and deport many of them to captivity in Babylon. The Babylonians stole all of the treasures in the house of God and burned it with fire. They broke down the wall of Jerusalem and burned the city with fire. II Chronicles 36:15-21 (KJB). The Devil must have rejoiced because he thought he was well on his way to utterly destroy the people of God and leave God with only the poor in the land of Judah. The Devil used his own fiery wrath to mock the fiery wrath of God. But the Devil did not realize that God had used him to destroy the evil that had infected the land by His use of His own fiery wrath. 

God intervened in this dark history. God caused the Persians to conquer Babylon. Although the Persians did not know God, they were a people who could listen to their good natures and try to do the right thing. The entire book of Esther. (KJB). After 70 years in Babylon, God inspired the Persian king Cyrus to issue a decree that all of the Jews who so desired could return to Jerusalem and rebuild the Temple of God. II Chronicles 36:22-23 (KJB). God knew that only those Jews who had been faithful to Him would be those who would return to Jerusalem. All the others would remain in Babylon. God turned the table on the Devil. God used the captivity of Judah to cleanse and purify His people to keep faith in Him alive until Jesus would come to save the human race in another dark time in history. Matthew 1:18-25 (KJB). The good natures of all living humans are God's people. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:26-27; Psalm 82:6; John 10:33-38; Matthew 15:13; Luke 17:20-21; Luke 20:38; Luke 3:6; John 5:28-29; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB).  

Consciousness Must Precede Existence

The atheistic scientists of our day do not like the fact that our universe had a beginning because that implies that someone began it. They have speculated that an infinite number of universes exist which would make it inevitable that one of these universes would be so fine-tuned that it would cause life to come into existence. That universe is our universe. 

But the existence of all those other universes would be completely useless until they brought our universe into existence. Their existences would equal their nonexistence until such a time as the emergence of our universe with its intelligent life. The only purpose of all of those other universes would be to guarantee the existence of our universe with its intelligent life. But that purpose could only exist because of infinity. Infinity exists with a purpose. But if infinity has to exist, then an Intelligent Consciousness also has to exist to cause all of those other universes to guarantee the existence of our universe. 

In addition, time simply cannot exist without consciousness. A universe must have a "now" that flows through space to establish a permanent past by its selection of possibilities which is its future in order for time to exist.  A universe without consciousness never has a "now" in it. All universes without consciousness can only be completely useless. Unless a "now" exists, then time cannot exist, and if time cannot exist, then space cannot exist. All universes without consciousness cannot exist. Even if a universe without consciousness could exist, and it moved toward the development of life, but life never developed, then that universe without consciousness would be completely useless and equal to absolute nothingness. Only if a universe without consciousness developed intelligent life could it then become a useful and real universe. But it would have no time and space to do that. Life and consciousness must precede the creation of a useful and real universe. God must exist, and He would need to create only one universe with intelligent life. Genesis 1:1 (KJB). 

Some may object that they can imagine a universe without consciousness that develops life. But they forget that in order to do that they must use their imagination to establish a "now" in their imaginary universe so that they can make it real. Their universe without consciousness disappears the moment they use their consciousness to imagine it. A universe without consciousness simply cannot be imagined. They must recreate in their imaginations the creation of the universe in order to make it real. Consciousness must always precede existence. An Intelligent Consciousness had to have created our universe in order to make it useful and real. Genesis 1:1 (KJB).    

The Fiery Wrath of God

                          Exodus 12:1-13 KJB

God commanded Moses to instruct His people to sacrifice a lamb without blemish just before He liberated them from slavery in Egypt. They were to make a sin offering and a burnt offering. The symbolism of the sin offering is very clear to all humans who become saved by grace. They were to kill the lamb and put its blood on the two side posts and on the upper door posts of every house where the sacrifice was made. An imaginary line between the two side posts and an imaginary line from the upper door posts to the ground formed a symbolic cross. That night, God sent His Spirit to kill all of the firstborn in every family of the Egyptians. But when He saw the blood on the houses where the sin offering was made, His Spirit passed over that house and spared the lives of those inside. Exodus 12:12-13 (KJB). The people in the houses protected by the blood of the lamb symbolized all humans who would ever become saved by God's grace. Matthew 26:28 (KJB). God's execution of the firstborn in Egypt symbolized that God will annul the spiritual death  inside of every person who ever becomes saved by His grace because they will have been washed clean of all their sins and evil by the blood of Christ. John 5:24; I John 1:7 (KJB). All of this happens to be a very clear symbolic prophecy that God's Son would sacrifice Himself on a cross and shed His blood to wash away the sins and evil of every human who would ever come to faith in Him as their personal Savior. John 3:16 (KJB).

However, the sin offering was not the only sacrifice that God commanded His people to make. God commanded His people to also make a burnt sacrifice. Since the sin offering was clearly symbolic, then surely the burnt offering had to be symbolic as well. God commanded that His people to roast the lamb and eat it during the night. Since the lamb symbolized Christ, then what could the roasted lamb mean? Christ became roasted when He dismissed His Spirit to descend into a burning Hell. Jesus bore all of the sins, evil, and spiritual deaths of all humans on the cross. He became sin for us. He became a nasty "worm." I John 2:2; II Corinthians 5:21; Psalm 22:6 (KJB). Since Christ is One with His Spirit, then without a doubt His Spirit became just as nasty with sin and evil as did His body on the cross. Jesus' Spirit had to be cleansed. Jesus dismissed His Spirit to descend into Hell to leave behind there all of the sins, evil, and spiritual deaths of all humans who fail to become saved by His grace. Hell could not hold Jesus' Spirit because He is just as innocent as is the body of Christ. So, the Spirit rose immaculate from Hell to reanimate the perfect body of Jesus so that He could rise from the dead with a complete and absolute victory over all sins, evil, spiritual death, and the Devil. John 12:31-32; I Peter 3:18; Psalm 16:8-11; Acts 2:25-31; Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB). 

All of the saved people in the houses symbolize the fact that God will save His entire, living human race either by His sin offering or by His burnt offering. God commanded His people to eat the roasted lamb to symbolize that in the end of the world, Christ will visit all of His people "on the earth, and under the earth" who did not become saved by His grace, and He will cause them all to partake of His roasted Spirit by faith because He will cause them to believe that His Spirit has used His fiery wrath against evil to dissolve their beings to separate their repentant, living souls and spirits from their dead and evil natures so that Christ can recreate their saved souls and spirits with new bodies to live forever on His recreated earth, and He will cast their dead and evil natures into the eternal lake of fire. Revelation 5:11-14; II Timothy 1:10; Revelation 21:1-5; Revelation 20:11-15 (KJB). God had them to eat bitter herbs to symbolize that their former sinful lifestyles on the earth will now taste bitter to them, and so they will repent of them. God had them to eat unleavened bread because unleavened bread symbolizes purity, and God will use His fiery wrath to separate His people from their sins and evil and spiritual deaths to sanctify them, and He will recreate them to be pure and holy. Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB). 

God's people were to eat the roasted lamb in the night to symbolize that the night of sin and evil will continue for the human race until Christ's final judgment in the end of the world. ..."Weeping may endure for the night, but joy cometh in the morning." Psalm 30:5 (KJB). In the morning, God saved all of His people from spiritual death. Exodus 12:11 (KJB). God ordered that all that was left of the lamb should be burned in the morning. All that will be left from Christ after His final judgment will be all of the sins, evil, spiritual deaths, and the Devil that Jesus bore on the cross and that His Spirit purged with the fires of Hell. God will burn and purge all sins, evil, spiritual deaths, and the Devil from His entire creation so that He can reconcile all that He created to Himself forever, including all of His living humans that He created in His image. John 12:31-32; John 5:28-29; II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 20:10-15; Colossians 1:15-20; Romans 8:18-25; Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:26-27; Genesis 3:20-21; Genesis 8:20-21; Revelation 4:11; Revelation 21:1-5. (KJB). "Behold, I make all things new." Revelation 21:5 (KJB). 

The Fiery Wrath of God

                          II Chronicles 35:13 KJB

King Josiah came to the throne of Judah after many years that a dark evil had pervaded the land. The Temple of God had fallen into disrepair, and God's Word, written by Moses, had been hidden in some dark corner of the Temple. King Josiah ordered that the people should return to the worship of God, and he appropriated money to pay workmen to cleanse and repair the Temple of God. While this was happening, a priest named Hilkiah found the Book of the Law where it had been hidden. Hilkiah gave the book to a scribe named Shaphan who read it to the king. King Josiah became distressed because the people of God had not obeyed God's Word for a long time. King Josiah gathered the people, and he read the Law to them, and he commanded that all people who were under his control should serve God and obey His Law. II Chronicles 34:1-33 (KJB). 

This pattern happened many times in God's Word, especially when Jesus came into the world. Every time, just when it seemed that the darkness of evil had almost put out the light of God's Word forever, God would recover His Word, have His people to hear it and experience it, and He would cause His faith to return to His people. In this way, God proves again and again that His Word and His Love can never be destroyed. Psalm 111:7-8; Matthew 24:35; Romans 5:20 (KJB). All of the persecutions of the Jews and Christians by the pagans, atheists, and materialists over the centuries can never put out the light of God's Word. Matthew 16:17-18 (KJB). 

King Josiah had the Passover restored which had been neglected for many years. When the animals were sacrificed, the sin offering was mentioned, but the burnt offering was more emphasized. II Chronicles 35:11-13 (KJB). God commanded Moses to have every family of the Israelites to offer a lamb without blemish for a sin offering which was the shedding of its blood. Then they were to roast the lamb and eat it during the night, and then they were to completely burn up the rest of it in the morning. Exodus 12:1-11 (KJB). The fact that God would forgive the sins of a person who made a burnt offering just as He would for a sin offering can only mean that the burnt offering was just as important to God as was the sin offering. Leviticus 5:6-10 (KJB). God emphasized the burnt offering more during Josiah's Passover because the people needed it more than the sin offering at that time. II Chronicles 35:10-19 (KJB). 

This is the symbolism of the sin and burnt offerings. Jesus sacrificed Himself on a cross just before the night of sin and evil fell onto the world to put out the light of God's Love forever. Sin and evil still plague the human race to this day. Jesus shed His blood and water on the cross to save all humans who would believe in Him while still alive in the flesh, just as He did when He shed the blood of an animal to symbolize the eternal salvation of Adam and Eve. Genesis 3:15; Genesis 3:20-21 (KJB). Jesus turned the light back on after darkness had engulfed His cross and the world to symbolize that He had accomplished salvation by His grace. It was still light when Jesus was buried, but He endured the darkness of the grave for three days until He turned the light back on when He rose from the dead with a complete and absolute victory over all sins, evil, spiritual death, and the Devil in order to save the entire human race from eternal death. Hebrews 2:9-18; II Timothy 1:10; I John 3:8; Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB). When Jesus died on the cross, He dismissed His Spirit to descend into Hell to leave behind there all of the sins and evil of the rest of humanity that Jesus bore on the cross. Luke 23:46; I John 2:2 (KJB). This happens to be the burnt offering that God Himself made. And God forgives sins because of the burnt offering. Leviticus 5:10 (KJB). In the end of the world, while the rest of humanity remains engulfed in the night of sin and evil, Jesus will visit all of His living humans that He still loves confined within the regions of death and on the earth, and He will cause them all to partake of His Spirit by faith, like eating roasted flesh in the night, and He will return them all to faith in Him as their Savior, that He put into them when He created them, so that He can use His fiery wrath against evil to dissolve their beings to separate their saved lives from their dead natures so that He can recreate their saved lives with new bodies to live forever on His recreated earth, and He will cast their dead natures into the eternal lake of fire. Revelation 5:11-14; Matthew 13:36-43; I Corinthians 3:11-15; Luke 3:16-17; Luke 3:6 (KJB). After God has used His sin offering and His burnt offering to save the entire human race from all sins and evil and eternal death, He will thoroughly burn up and purge all sins, evil, spiritual death, and the Devil from His entire creation so that He can recreate it all to be righteous, like completely burning the rest of the lamb in the morning. Exodus 12:10; Genesis 8:20-21; II Peter 3:9-13; I John 3:8; Romans 8:18-25; Revelation 21:5 (KJB).  

The Fiery Wrath of God

                           II Chronicles 33:6 KJB

King Manasseh of Judah sunk himself into the lowest depths of evil. His father, king Hezekiah, had been a Godly man. So, what happened to king Manasseh? The Devil has not changed any of his lies since he tempted Eve. The Devil's message to Eve and to all humans to this day is that you don't really need God. Humans can have power and wealth and pleasures that are independent of God's care. Humans can be little gods on their own. Genesis 3:1-6 (KJB). Humans simply have a choice. They can try to be little gods independent of God's Love, or they can serve God and become whatever God creates them to be. 

Evidently, king Manasseh looked around him, and he saw that many of the pagan nations that worshipped false gods had become very prosperous and powerful. So, king Manasseh decided to become even more evil than they were. He made his children to pass through the fires of the idols, and he used witchcraft and all the demonic, occult practices. He even put idols in the house of God. King Manasseh saw that the Devil had his own kingdom in the world, and king Manasseh wanted his own little kingdom of evil. II Chronicles 33:1-10 (KJB). To this day, demonic, occult practices often work to give its practitioner power over others and wealth and sinful pleasures because the Devil desires to reward his own. But evil practices can also lead to very bloody acts of murder and mayhem because the Devil hates humans. 

Two curious phrases occur in this account about king Manasseh. Two verses state that king Manasseh worshipped and made altars for "all the host of heaven." II Chronicles 33:3; II Chronicles 33:5 (KJB). These phrases seem to indicate that king Manasseh worshipped actual beings who formerly were in Heaven. All of the idols of the pagans could have represented fallen angels whom God allowed to roam the universe and force lesser beings to worship them. These fallen angels were not those who rebelled with Lucifer because God cast all of them into Hell except for a few whom He chained in the river Euphrates. Revelation 9:1-15 (KJB). God probably cast these fallen angels out of Heaven because they remained neutral in God's war with Lucifer. 

God creates every human in His image to be good and creative. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:26-27 (KJB). Most humans choose to try to live good lives because they desire to adhere to their good natures and obey God even if they do not know Him or any of His commandments. Nevertheless, because of a weakness in their free will, all humans will inevitably sin. Romans 3:23 (KJB). When that happens, the Devil injects spiritual death into the inner beings of all humans who sin with the hope that sin and evil will so thoroughly sully and mar the righteous natures of humans that they will become totally evil and demonic to the extent that God will have to reject them, and they will be forever dead and lost from God's Love forever. Genesis 2:17; Genesis 3:15; Job 2:5 (KJB). God creates life. He never causes permanent death. Genesis 2:17 (KJB). The "seed" of the Devil can only be a planted spiritual death. Genesis 3:15 (KJB). But the Devil did not count on God's Love being so great that He would suffer the spiritual deaths of all humans, and the sins and evil that causes it, and bear it all Himself on a cruel cross, and He would rise from the dead to give His own spiritual life to all humans whom He would save by His grace, and He will use His fiery wrath against evil to burn up the evil natures of the rest of humanity so that He can recover and recreate their repentant, good natures to live forever on His recreated earth. John 3:3; John 5:24; Psalm 16:9-11; Acts 2:25-31; Revelation 5:11-14; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5; II Peter 3:9-13 (KJB). 

God spoke to king Manasseh and to all who followed him to try to get them to return to faith in Him, but they all refused. II Chronicles 33:10 (KJB). So, God decided to punish king Manasseh by having the evil ruler of Assyria to capture him and put him in prison in Babylon. When king Manasseh experienced the horrors of being separated from feeling God's care, he repented and returned to faith in God. God then forgave him and rescued him from prison and returned him to His kingship in Jerusalem. II Chronicles 33:11-13 (KJB). In the end of the world, God will do the same for all humans who did not become saved by His grace. Christ will visit all of His living humans whom He had to consign to the regions of death and those who remain on the earth because they failed to become saved by grace, and when they see His tremendous majesty and love for them, and they have experienced the horrors of being separated from feeling His love and care, they will all repent and return to the faith that He put into them when He created them. Christ will then use His fiery wrath to dissolve their beings to separate their repentant, good and living natures from their dead and evil natures so that He can recreate their good natures with new bodies to live forever on His recreated earth, and He will cast their dead and evil natures into the eternal lake of fire. II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 5:11-14; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 20:11-15; Revelation 21:1-5; Revelation 22:11-12 (KJB).   

The Fiery Wrath of God

                          II Chronicles 28:3 KJB

Everyone is a sinner. Romans 3:23 (KJB). God has given the Holy Spirit to believers saved by grace, and His presence in their inner beings causes them to hate sin because they recognize that it is slow poison, and He causes them to love purity and godliness which are always creative. Galatians 5:22-26 (KJB). Yet even believers saved by grace will sometimes sin because their flesh is weak and temptations can be strong. Romans 7:18-19 (KJB). But if a believer ever commits a gross sin, such as adultery or thievery, they will become overwhelmed by grief and shame. But if they repent, God will forgive them. I John 1:9 (KJB). Nevertheless, God will often punish believers for their gross sins to remind them that the practice of sin results in pain and destruction, but His Love for them is corrective. Hebrews 12:5-13 (KJB). The Holy Spirit will often just rebuke a minor sin such as telling a white lie. But if a believer defies God and persists in the practice of a minor or major sin, and fails to repent, God may severely punish that believer to remind them that they need to humble themselves to Him. God hates pride above all sins and evil. Pride is a defiance of God's authority. Proverbs 6:16-17 (KJB). God knows that all humans need Him to be saved from eternal death, and therefore, all humans should recognize that God should be in control. 

The ordinary sinner who is not saved by grace may be an atheist, but usually they just try to ignore God because they desire a life of excitement and pleasure. (The atheist may hate the idea of God, but they never ignore Him.) The ordinary sinner does not care if the slow poison of sin causes them to have an early death. God does not punish these unbelievers in this life because He knows that their sins will punish them enough. God desires that they should hear the gospel that Jesus can save them from their sins and evil which will cause their eternal deaths. Romans 6:23 (KJB). When they hear or read the gospel, the Holy Spirit convinces them that they need to repent of their sins and evil and become washed clean in the blood of Christ so that God can give them the righteousness of Christ Himself so that they can lead Godly lives, and God can accept them to live with Him in Heaven forever. II Corinthians 5:21 (KJB). But sadly, most of them will reject the gospel when they hear it either because they wrongly believe that they are too bad to be saved, or their pride makes them unwilling to humble themselves to God and give up their sinful lifestyles. These unbelievers do not realize that when they suffer physical death, Christ will consign their souls and spirits to one of the three regions of death so that they will learn the terrible horrors to which the Devil has brought them. Revelation 20:13; Hebrews 9:27 (KJB). 

All evil is sinful, but all sins are not necessarily fully evil. Humans sin because their free will causes a weakness in their flesh and souls and spirits. Genesis 3:6-7 (KJB). God understands that. But when a person willfully decides to practice evil, that person deliberately allies himself with the Devil in his desire to murder God and get rid of Him. A person who practices evil must deliberately and willfully rebel against God, give their lives over to their evil nature, and become cruel and heartless. Some of them will believe the lies of the Devil that cruelty can be necessary to bring about a better world, but deep in their hearts they will know that that is just a lie. The Devil will even convince them that they can have better lives if they murder their unborn children. 

In the Old Testament, the Devil would often cause people to become so evil that they would throw their babies alive into fires that were before idols because of the lie that that would give them a better life. The Devil knows that God uses His fiery wrath to destroy evil. So, the Devil uses his own fiery wrath to destroy the innocent as a mockery of God. II Chronicles 28:3 (KJB). 

God creates all humans in His image to be good. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:26-27 (KJB). The good and living natures of all humans can never be destroyed because God will never allow anything He has ever created to be destroyed. Ecclesiastes 3:14 (KJB). Every sin contains an element of evil because disobedience of God demonstrates a desire to become separate from God's protective control. Genesis 3:5-6 (KJB). For this reason, all of the sins, evil, and spiritual deaths of all humans nailed Jesus to the cross. I John 2:2 (KJB). God sacrificed Himself to save all of humanity from eternal death because He is determined to save all that He loves from the Devil's destruction. Christ gained a complete and absolute victory over the Devil and all sins and evil. Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB). He has saved by His grace, and He has abolished death itself to save the rest of humanity. II Timothy 1:10 (KJB). Every human is alive in His sight, and since He abolished only death, then He must save the lives of every human whom He loves. Luke 20:38 (KJB). God will resurrect to life all of His living humans confined to the regions of death because He will cause them all to repent and return to the faith that He put into them when He created them that He is their Savior. Revelation 5:11-14; Revelation 20:5 (KJB). Christ will absolutely crush the head of the Devil to save all of His living humans from eternal death. Genesis 3:15 (KJB).
