The Fiery Wrath of God

                            II Kings 8:12 KJB 

God is patient and longsuffering with evil humans, but when His patience runs out, He will use war and fire to destroy evil humans. Exodus 15:3 (KJB). The Devil also uses fire in his wars against God's people. But the Devil will use fire indiscriminately to kill evil people as well as good ones. The Devil hates the goodness that God puts into every human He creates. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:26-27 (KJB). The Devil hates God and anything God creates. 

God revealed to Elisha that a servant of the king of Syria, named Hazael, would become the king of Syria and that he would commit some terrible atrocities against women and children. At first, Hazael did not believe Elisha, but when he returned to Syria, he evidently decided to give in to the evil nature inside of him, and so he murdered the king of Syria and became the king. He then fulfilled the prophecy of Elisha. II Kings 13:3 (KJB). 

Hazael actually also destroyed many evil humans because many of the people of Israel at that time worshipped idols. In all wars, good and evil humans are both destroyed. God allows evil armies to destroy other evil armies because that diminishes evil in the world and that causes less suffering for the human race in the long run. Romans 9:28 (KJB). God also allows good people to be killed in wars to prove that no matter how brutal and cruel the Devil can be, he can never utterly destroy anything that God has created and loves. Ecclesiastes 3:14; I Corinthians 13:8 (KJB). God will recover and recreate absolutely everything He creates. Romans 11:36; Revelation 21:5 (KJB). The Devil knows that when he kills evil people, he also kills their good natures as well and that is what he seeks to permanently destroy. 

God has a good reason to allow good people and evil people to be killed. God has determined that He will sort it all out, and He will make His final judgment in the end of the world. John 12:47-48 (KJB). When He was on the earth, Christ did not judge the world because He creates every good and living human in the history of mankind. Revelation 4:11 (KJB). Christ judged only the Devil and all evil on His cross. John 12:31-32 (KJB). Christ gained a complete victory over all sin, evil, spiritual death, and the Devil in His death, burial, and resurrection. I Timothy 1:10; Revelation 1:17-18; I John 3:8 (KJB). Therefore, Christ must forever save all of His living humans that He creates and loves, some by His grace, and all others in His final judgment in the end of the world. John 5:24; II Timothy 4:1 (KJB). Every human who has given their lives to the service of evil also has a good and living nature created by God. God intends to save that good and living nature from eternal death.  In the end of the world, Christ will appear to all of His living humans "on the earth, and under the earth," and He will cause them all to repent and believe in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior so that He can use His fiery wrath against evil to dissolve their beings to separate their repentant, good and living natures for Him to recreate 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 Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5; Revelation 22:11-12; Revelation 20:11-15 (KJB). II Peter 3:9 relates that God is "not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." This verse can only mean that Christ must forever save all of His living humans because His Will cannot be thwarted. I Timothy 2:4 (KJB). 

The Fiery Wrath of God

                            II Kings 6:17 (KJB)

The king of Syria invaded Israel with his army and sought to conquer Israel. Apparently, his army happened to be much larger than the Israeli army because he tried several times to trap the Israeli army and overwhelm it and defeat it. But the prophet Elisha received messages from God, and he informed the king of Israel who was able to move his army in ways that avoided being trapped. The king of Syria thought that someone in his army was a traitor, but his officers informed him that Elisha told the king of Israel every move that the Syrian army would make and every word that the Syrian king would speak. II Kings 6:8-12 (KJB). 

The Syrian king knew that his army might just wander around in Israel and be slowly worn down by the hit and run tactics of the Israeli army, and that the only way he would ever conquer Israel would be to force the Israeli army into a direct battle. So, the Syrian king decided that he would find Elisha and kill him. The Syrian king's informants had found out that Elisha was in a city called Dothan, and so he came with his army and surrounded Dothan. A young man who was a servant of Elisha woke up early in the morning, and when he saw that a huge army surrounded the city, he became very afraid, and he pleaded with Elisha as to what they would do. Elisha comforted this young man by telling him that his army was greater than the army that surrounded them. Elisha then prayed and asked God to open the eyes of the young man, and he saw that God's army was around Dothan in chariots of fire and with horses of fire. Clearly, God opened more than just the eyes of this young man. God opened his mind as well. God's fiery army symbolized the fact that God uses His fiery wrath against evil to destroy His and His people's enemies. II Kings 6:13-17; II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 21:5 (KJB)

Apparently, the Syrians sent a band of soldiers with an officer to arrest Elisha because they thought that the leaders of the city would give up Elisha rather than having their city destroyed. But Elisha prayed that God would blind these men, and He did. The ordinary response of any person who was blinded by another person would be to try to get away from that person, but God had blinded more than just the eyes of these men. God is able to control the minds of humans. Jesus simply walked through a mob who intended to throw Him off a cliff because He made them forget what they were doing. Luke 4:28-30 (KJB). Elisha led these men out of Dothan and all the way to Samaria because God had control of their minds, and they did not know what they were doing. When they got to Samaria, Elisha prayed that God would open their eyes, and then they understood what had happened to them and where they were. The king of Israel, who lived in Samaria, asked Elisha if he should kill them. As a man of God, Elisha replied with compassion that prisoners of war should be fed and given water. Matthew 5:44 (KJB). The king of Israel fed these soldiers and then sent them back to the Syrian army. This particular war ended in victory for Israel because of God's fiery wrath against evil and because of His compassion that He demonstrated through His prophet Elisha. II Kings 6:18-23 (KJB).   

The Fiery Wrath of God

                        II Kings 2:11 KJB

No human can go to Heaven unless God thoroughly cleanses that person of all sins, and evil, and annuls their spiritual deaths that the Devil has injected into them. The Bible records that God translated Enoch, Elijah, and the Apostle John to Heaven before their physical deaths. Genesis 5:24; II Kings 2:11; Revelation 4:1 (KJB). The Bible prophesies that God will translate His Church to Heaven from their graves along with those who are alive on the earth. I Thessalonians 4:14-18 (KJB). God translated Enoch to Heaven which meant that God changed him from one type of being to another type of being. Hebrews 11:5 (KJB). 

God is absolutely Pure and Holy which means that God can only accept persons to live with Him in Heaven who are absolutely perfect, just as His Son is absolutely perfect. Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8; John 17:23-24 (KJB). At present, Heaven is still slightly tainted with the smell of impurity because of Lucifer's rebellion. Ezekiel 28:18 (KJB). But God used His fiery wrath against evil to cleanse His Heaven of Lucifer's evil, and God cast him to earth as an empty and evil consciousness called Satan. Ezekiel 28:18-19 (KJB). But a day will come when God uses His fiery wrath against evil to thoroughly burn and purge Heaven and earth of all sin, evil, spiritual death, and the Devil so that He can recreate it all to be absolutely righteous. II Peter 3:9-13 (KJB). 

But a difference exists between heavenly righteousness, which is the absolute perfection of God Himself, and earthly perfection which is a creation of God given to every human that God creates. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:26-27 (KJB). God said that Job was perfect, and the Apostle James wrote that a Christian can be perfect. Job 1:1; James 3:2 (KJB). But earthly perfection simply means that a believer can be as righteous as it is possible for a sinful person to be. God created Adam and Eve, and all humans in His image with earthly righteousness, but also with the weakness of free will which He knew will cause all humans to eventually sin. Romans 3:23; Romans 5:12 (KJB). But that was all a part of God's plan to prove that while the weakness of free will will cause all humans to sin, the Devil will never be able to use sin and evil to ever utterly destroy living humans because Christ has sacrificed Himself to save all of His living humans from utter destruction. Genesis 3:15; Genesis 3:20; Luke 20:38; I Timothy 4:10 (KJB). Since God made Eve the mother of all living and all humans are alive in His sight, then He certainly means to save all of His living humans from eternal death. II Timothy 1:10; I Corinthians 15:20-26 (KJB). Eventually, God will cause all of His living humans to use their free will to return to faith in Him as their Savior so that He can save them all from eternal death. John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14; Revelation 21:5 (KJB)

God translated Enoch because he "walked with God." Genesis 5:24 (KJB). There can be no condemnation for Christians because they "walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Romans 8:1 (KJB) A person cannot "walk with God" unless that person has been cleansed of all sin and evil by the blood of Jesus. Matthew 26:28 (KJB). Enoch could only become acceptable to God in Heaven because God had washed him thoroughly clean with the blood of Jesus. 

Being washed in the blood of Jesus ensures that God will accept that believer into Heaven because God gives that believer the absolute perfect righteousness of Christ. II Corinthians 5:21; John 17:23-24 (KJB). But some believers backslide on God and return to a life of sin and even evil. Nevertheless, God knows exactly how to return every backslider to repentance and faith before He Raptures His Church. Christ will thoroughly cleanse His Church with "the washing of water by the Word." Christ will wash every believer of their unrepentant sins and evil and return them to absolute purity with the water He shed on the cross. Christ will make His entire Church acceptable to His Father in Heaven. John 13:1-10; John 17:17; John 17:23; Ephesians 5:25-27; I John 5:4-8 (KJB). 

God uses His fiery wrath to utterly destroy all of His enemies, but He also uses it to cleanse all of His living humans, not already saved by His grace, of all of their sins, evil, and spiritual deaths when He causes them all to return to faith in Him as their Savior from eternal death. Revelation 5:11-14; II Peter 3:9-13; Matthew 13:36-43; I Corinthians 3:11-15; Luke 3:16-17; Luke 3:6 (KJB). All of God's living humans whom He creates and loves can never be His enemies. 

God translated Elijah to Heaven in a fiery chariot with fiery horses in a tornado. The tornado symbolized the power of God, and the fire of God represented that God had thoroughly cleansed Elijah of all of his sins, evil, spiritual death in order to make him absolutely perfect so that God could accept him into Heaven. II Kings 2:11 (KJB). 

The Fiery Wrath of God

                           II Kings 1:10-14

The son of Ahab, king Ahaziah, had been badly injured in an accidental fall. He sent messengers to inquire of the god Baal-zebub whether or not he would recover. God sent Elijah to meet those messengers as they went, and he rebuked them for going to a false god for answers when they had a true God of Israel. Elijah also prophesied that king Ahaziah would die of his injuries. These messengers turned back from their mission and told king Ahaziah the prophecy of Elijah. II Kings 1:1-8 (KJB). 

The king then sent an officer with fifty men to arrest Elijah. Being an enemy of his father and himself, the king probably desired to have Elijah put to death. I Kings 21:20 (KJB). Elijah called for God to send down fire from Heaven and burn this captain and his fifty men, and God did that. The king sent another captain of fifty men, and at the request of Elijah, God consumed them with fire. The third captain of fifty, being very afraid and very wise, fell on his knees before Elijah and begged him to spare the lives of himself and his fifty men. An angel of God told Elijah to go with them, and he came to the king. Apparently, the king had also become very afraid of Elijah because he did not order him to be killed. Elijah repeated his prophecy that because the king had inquired of a false god instead of the true God of Israel, he would die in his bed, and he did. II Kings 1:9-18 (KJB). 

The atheists criticize God for this story because they claim that God had innocent men killed. God creates humans in His image to be good and creative. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:26-27 (KJB). Most people are basically good because they try to adhere to the good nature that God has put into them. But all humans are also sinners because the Devil injects spiritual death into their inner beings which causes them to sin. Sin causes spiritual death and spiritual death, in turn, causes sin. Genesis 2:17; Genesis 3:15; Romans 5:12 (KJB). God gives all humans free will, and so some humans choose to deliberately practice heartless cruelty toward their fellow humans. They become evil, and the smart ones can sometimes gain power over others by terrorizing them or confusing them with lies and propaganda. Most of the people over whom evil rulers gain power are basically good people, but because of the weakness that their sins cause, they follow and obey their evil rulers. This fact makes good people who obey evil rulers also responsible for evil. 

The Bible records that God has no problem with killing evil humans and the good people who follow them because the weakness of the good people assists the evil rulers to gain more power over other people. Therefore, God had no problem killing the two fifties with their captains because they were obeying an evil king. 

Most countries where the people rule usually have good rulers because they will not obey evil rulers. Nevertheless, all humans are sinners. Romans 3:23 (KJB). When free countries sometimes have to go to war against evil countries, some people in the free countries claim to be so good that they can be conscientious objectors. If most people were conscientious objectors, evil would rule the world. Conscientious objectors actually assist evil in gaining power in the world. God expects good people, even though they are also sinners, to fight against evil just as He taught in the Old Testament. Any fight against evil requires self-sacrifice. One becomes willing to sacrifice one's life, limb, or even mental health. One becomes willing to become extremely depressed if one has to kill the good people who follow the evil rulers. One becomes willing to become self-sacrificial in whatever way is needed in order to defeat evil. The only valid conscientious objector is a good person who refuses to follow or obey an evil ruler. 

Christ sacrificed Himself to save all of humanity from sin, evil, and spiritual death. Humans have no power whatsoever to overcome their sins, evil, and spiritual deaths which will become eternal death. Romans 5:6 (KJB). Humans cannot even begin to imagine the tremendous suffering that the sins, evil, and spiritual deaths of all humans caused Christ on that cross. I John 2:2 (KJB). Christ shed His blood on the cross to save those humans whom He would save by His grace, but He dismissed His Spirit to descend into Hell to leave behind there all of the sins and evil of the rest of humanity so that He could save them as well. Matthew 26:28; Luke 23:46; John 5:24; Psalm 16:9-11; Acts 2:25-31; I John 2:2; I Timothy 4:10 (KJB). Christ's Spirit rose immaculate from Hell to reanimate the perfect body of Jesus so that He could rise from the dead with complete victory over all sins, evil, spiritual death, and the Devil. I Peter 3:18; Hebrews 2:9-18; Revelation 1:17-18; I John 3:8 (KJB). Christ has liberated all sinful humans from eternal death because in His resurrection He changed eternal death to only a temporary death. II Timothy 1:10; I Corinthians 15:20-26 (KJB). In the end of the world, Christ will visit all of His living humans "on the earth, and under the earth," and He will cause them all to repent and return to faith in Him as their Savior so that He can use His fiery wrath against evil to purge them all of their sins, evil, and spiritual deaths for Him to cast into the lake of fire, and He will recreate their repentant, good and living natures with new bodies to live forever on His recreated earth. Revelation 5:11-14; Matthew 13:36-43; I Corinthians 3:11-15; II Peter 3:9-13; John 5:28-29; Revelation 20:11-15; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB). Christ, being Almighty God and Almighty Love that cannot fail, cannot fail to win a complete and absolute victory over the Devil and all of his evil works. I Corinthians 13:8; I John 3:8; I Timothy 4:10 (KJB).   

The Fiery Wrath of God

                             I Kings 19:12-13 KJB

Apparently, when Elijah prayed to God on Mount Carmel, and God sent fire from Heaven to completely burn the burnt sacrifice that Elijah had prepared, and all of the people who had formerly worshipped Baal fell on their faces and began to worship God, and Elijah had had the 450 prophets of Baal killed, then Elijah evidently thought that a great change would take place. From what Elijah later said to God, one can surmise that Elijah had thought that after God had shown Himself to be the only true God, that the majority of the people of Israel would turn to the worship of God, and king Ahab and his evil wife Jezebel would no longer be able to murder God's prophets and control the people of God by terrorizing them. I Kings 18:17-46 (KJB).  

But Elijah soon discovered that not much had really changed. When the evil queen Jezebel threatened to kill him, apparently no one stood with Elijah and promised to protect him. Jezebel actually demonstrated that she was afraid of Elijah, because if she had been serious, she would have just sent an assassin to kill him without warning him instead of just threatening him. Nevertheless, Elijah panicked and ran for is life. I Kings 19:1-3 (KJB). 

Elijah fell into a state of despair and wanted to die, but God was not angry with him. God displayed His compassion for him, and He sent an angel to cook food for him and give him water because God knew that Elijah was taking a long journey to Mount Horeb. Apparently, Elijah wanted to die on the mountain of God where He had given Moses the Ten Commandments. Elijah came to the mountain and hid in a cave there, but God asked him why he was there. Elijah replied that he believed that the forces of evil had won in Israel and that he alone was left to serve God. God told him to come out of the cave and stand on the top of the mountain. God then displayed to Elijah some of His destructive forces. God sent the powerful forces of wind, an earthquake, and a fire, but God was not in any of them because God wanted Elijah to know that His destructive forces were not directed toward Elijah. God wanted Elijah to know that where evil was concerned, God still had destructive control over it. God then spoke to Elijah in "a still small voice;" that is, a voice of love and compassion. God asked Elijah again why he was there, and Elijah again replied that he thought that he alone was left in Israel to serve God. I Kings 19:4-14 (KJB). 

God's remedy for Elijah's despair and depression was that God simply told him to get back to work. God had kings for him to anoint, and a prophet for him to anoint to take his place when God called him home. As for Elijah's self-pity, God informed him that He had seven thousand in Israel who still served Him and not Baal. God's message to Elijah was clear. God still had Almighty Power over evil, and although God's people would always be in the minority in the earth, they would still win out over evil in the end. I Kings 19:15-18 (KJB). 

One of the destructive forces that God demonstrated to Elijah was a fire that God was not in. I Kings 19:12 (KJB). But God is in His fiery wrath that He uses to utterly destroy evil. Hebrews 12:29 (KJB). The lake of fire is a part of God's nature that He uses to so preoccupy with pain all death and evil to the extent that it, and the Devil, can never influence His creation again. Revelation 20:11-15; Revelation 20:10 (KJB). God's fiery wrath is actually creative because it causes God to be able to recreate Heaven and earth to be righteous after He has cleansed them with His fiery wrath including all of His repentant, living humans whom He created in His image to be good. II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 21:1-5; Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:26-27 (KJB). God promised in Revelation 21:5, "Behold, I make all things new." Since His living humans must be a part of the "all things" that God has created, then God must know a way to cause all of His living humans to repent and return to faith in Christ their Savior so that He can either save them by His grace or by a lesser form of salvation in the end of the world. Revelation 4:11; Revelation 5:11-14; John 5:24; John 5:28-29 (KJB).   

The Fiery Wrath of God

                              I Kings 18:23-25,38

At times when the darkness of sin and evil threaten to overwhelm the earth, and the light of God's Word seems about to be put out, then God moves in miraculous ways to strengthen His people. In Elijah's day, most of the people of Israel had turned to the worship of the god Baal, so God sent His prophet Elijah to do a miracle that would show that He was the real God. King Ahab and his wife Jezebel had murdered many of God's prophets to the extent that his governor, Obadiah, who was a secret servant of God, had hid 100 of God's prophets in a cave to protect them. I Kings 18:3-4 (KJB). Elijah's first miracle was that when he confronted king Ahab, Ahab did not order him to be killed because God had put a great fear of Elijah into king Ahab. Ahab even obeyed Elijah's command that he gather the people of Israel and the prophets of Baal to Mount Carmel for a reason that Elijah did not tell Ahab. I Kings 18:17-20 (KJB). 

When the king and the people and 450 prophets of Baal were gathered to the top of Mount Carmel, Elijah proposed a contest between their god and his true and living God. Elijah instructed that two altars of stone be built, and two bullocks cut up and their pieces laid on both altars, but they should put no fire under them. Elijah then challenged the people, and they agreed, that they should pray to their gods for fire to fall on their altar, and Elijah would pray to God for fire to fall on his altar, and the God that answered would be the true God. The people prayed to their gods and cut themselves with knives from morning until evening, but no fire fell on Baal's altar. Elijah was brave enough to mock their gods. Elijah then told the people to gather close to him. He then repaired an altar of God that evidently was already there, and he added twelve stones to it, and he ordered a trench to be dug around it, and he put the pieces of the bullock on the wood on the altar, and he had four barrels of water poured three times on the altar so that the water filled the trench. Elijah then made a short prayer to God that He would show the people that He is the only true God and fire fell from God and consumed the bullock, the wood, and even the stones and dust, and evaporated all of the water in the trench. And the Lord said that it was a "burnt sacrifice." Then all the people, who had been worshippers of Baal, fell on their faces and worshipped God except for the 450 prophets of Baal. Elijah had those 450 prophets of Baal executed. I Kings 18:21-40 (KJB). 

God gave the burnt offering to Noah and the Israelites for a specific purpose. God promised Noah, and all who read the Bible, that He would never again "smite;" that is, kill all of His living humans whom He creates in His image, and whom He loves, as He had done with the worldwide flood. God often kills people who allow evil to dominate their lives, but He never permanently kills their subdued good natures that He has created in His image. Genesis 8:20-21 (KJB). God knows exactly how to cause all of the good natures of all humans to repent and return to faith in Him of their own free will. John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). 

God caused Elijah to use a burnt sacrifice to divide the people between the believers and the unbelievers. God will do the same with His fiery wrath against evil and unbelief in the end of the world. Christ will appear to all living humans "on the earth, and under the earth," and He will cause them all to repent and return to faith in Him as their Savior so that He can use His fiery wrath against evil to dissolve their beings to separate their good and living natures from their dead and unbelieving natures. God will then recreate their believing natures with new bodies to live forever on His recreated earth, and He will cast their dead and unbelieving natures into the eternal lake of fire. Revelation 5:11-14; II Peter 3:9-13; Matthew 13:36-43; Luke 3:16-17; Revelation 20:11-15; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB). 

Jesus promised that He would not judge believers and unbelievers until the end of the world. John 12:46-48; II Timothy 4:1 (KJB). Every human is a believer and an unbeliever in their inner beings. God will reawaken the faith of all of His living humans so that He can save them from eternal death. He will be able to do that because of His death, burial, and resurrection. John 12:31-32 (KJB). Unbelief is totally evil and can never repent. So, God will utterly destroy the dead and evil natures of all humans. Revelation 20:11-15 (KJB). 

The people who returned to faith in God because of Elijah's burnt sacrifice represent the entire, living human race that God will save. I Timothy 4:10 (KJB). Baal's 450 prophets that Elijah had killed represent the evil unbelief of all dead humans that God will cast into the eternal lake of fire. Revelation 20:11-15; Matthew 12:31-32 (KJB). 

The Fiery Wrath of God

                               II Samuel 23:1-7 KJB

As usual, God gave king David very poetic language as he spoke his last words. God inspired king David to say that whoever rules over humans must be a just ruler who fears God. King David admitted that he had not always been a just ruler, but he remembered that God had made a covenant with him that his throne would last forever, and it would be "ordered in all things" which meant it would have a perfect ruler. King David further prophesied that that perfect ruler would be the source of his salvation. King David prophesied about the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. 

King David then turned his prophecy to the final judgment that this perfect ruler would make. David said that evil humans would be "as thorns thrust away" which meant they would be separated from humans so they could no longer touch humans and influence and injure their lives. Jesus said that "tares" would be separated from the "wheat." Matthew 13:30 (KJB). John the Baptist said that Jesus would separate the "wheat" from the "chaff," and He would burn the "chaff." Luke 3:16-17 (KJB). Jesus taught that, "Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up." Matthew 15:13 (KJB). God told Adam that "thorns also and thistles" would plague his life. Genesis 3:17-18 (KJB). The Bible often relates that evil is like worthless but injurious stuff that will be burned. Jesus was crowned with thorns which symbolized that He was taking all of the evil and sins of the human race on Himself. Matthew 27:29 (KJB). 

God creates all of His living humans to be good, and He can never lose anything He has ever created. Genesis 1:31; Ecclesiastes 3:14; Luke 20:38 (KJB). Therefore, God will make a way to return all of His living humans to the faith that He put into them when He created them so that He can save them all, and He will either annul their spiritual deaths for all living humans that He saves by His grace, or He will separate their repentant, good and living natures from their evil and worthless natures that, like thorns, He will burn in an everlasting fire. Habakkuk 2:4; John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14; Matthew 13:36-43 (KJB). Sin, evil, and spiritual death inside of every human would have eventually caused eternal death, but Jesus took all sins, evil, and eternal death on Himself on a cross and died in the place of all living humans so that He could rise from the dead having turned eternal death into only a temporary death for the sake of the salvation of all living humans. Hebrews 2:9-18; I Timothy 4:10 (KJB). Hebrews 2:9-13 relates about God's salvation by His grace, but Hebrews 2:14-18 relates about God's salvation of the rest of humanity. All humans are God's children. Psalm 82:6 (KJB). Jesus judged only the Devil and all evil as He suffered on the cross. John 12:31; John 16:11 (KJB). But Christ will not judge His living humans until the end of the world. John 12:46-47; II Timothy 4:1 (KJB).   

King David further prophesied that this perfect ruler will be able to touch the "thorns" because He will possess a perfect defense against them, and He will have a "spear" which means He will be able to force the "thorns" into the fire. All of these "thorns" will be "utterly burned with fire in the same place." This prophecy can only mean that God will purge with His fiery wrath all of the sins, evil, spiritual deaths, and the Devil from the lives of all of His living humans not already saved by grace in the end of the world. Then He will recreate His entire creation to be righteous. II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB).
