II Kings 23:10-11 KJB
King Josiah came to power in Judah after two evil kings had ruled. King Josiah dedicated himself to the service of God. King Josiah thoroughly cleansed all of Judah of all idols, burned everything that had been used in the service of the false gods, and he had all of their priests killed. He also outlawed the terrible practice of the sacrifice of children to these false gods by having them burned in fire. II Kings 23:1-20 (KJB). In ancient Judah, the Devil would often cause evil rulers to take control of the land in their attempts to completely put out the light of God's truth. But when darkness covered the land, God would light it up again by raising up rulers of His people who would revolt against evil and cleanse the land. Romans 5:20 (KJB).
The Devil knows that God has given an inner light to every human He creates. John 1:9 (KJB). God creates every human in His image to be innocent and good. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:26-27 (KJB). Part of human goodness is faith in God which the Devil has subdued by his injection of spiritual death into every human the moment they sin. Genesis 2:17 (KJB). Adam's sin was the first example of this fact. Romans 5:12 (KJB).
Most children tend to be innocent and good, although they also can sin. The fact that the Devil enjoys having children sacrificed reveals his intention toward the whole human race. The Devil knows that child sacrifice hardens people's hearts because it gives them the idea that if they can just put out God's light in themselves, then they can gain a better life without that hindrance, when, in fact, they will only gain eternal slavery to the Devil. In that day and in this day, child sacrifice reveals the fact that the Devil desires to completely put out the light that God puts into every human, bring absolute darkness into the world, and utterly destroy a part of God's creation, and thereby, prove that God's Love can fail. II Kings 23:10-11 (KJB).
The Devil will have children burned in a fire or burn them with a saline solution and have them aborted, but God has a fiery wrath of His own. God cannot lose anything He has ever created, and His Love cannot fail. Ecclesiastes 3:14; I Corinthians 13:8 (KJB). Christ sacrificed Himself on a cross and shed His blood and water to save all humans whom He would save by His grace, but when He died, He sent His Spirit to Hell to accomplish the salvation of the rest of humanity. I Timothy 4:10 (KJB). Jesus' Spirit left behind in Hell all of the sins and evil of the rest of humanity that Jesus bore on the cross so that He could rise immaculate from Hell to reanimate the perfect body of Jesus so that He could rise from the dead having obtained an absolute victory over all sins, evil, the Devil, and spiritual death. John 5:24; I Peter 3:18; Psalm 16:9-11; Acts 2:25-31; I John 3:8; Revelation 1:17-18; I John 2:2 (KJB). Genesis 8:20-21 symbolizes this fiery salvation that Christ has provided for all humans who do not become saved by His grace. In the end of the world, Christ will visit all of these living humans, 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 that He created from their dead and evil natures. He will recreate their repentant, good and living 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. Revelation 5:11-14; Psalm 75:3; Matthew 13:36-43; I Corinthians 3:11-15; Luke 3:16-17; Luke 3:6; Revelation 20:11-15; Revelation 21:1-5; II Peter 3:9-13 (KJB).
King Josiah symbolized God Himself when he burned all that was evil, and he saved the lives of the innocent. II Kings 23:10-11 (KJB).
