God: Love And An All Consuming Fire

God is Love. (1 John 4:8) 
God is a consuming fire. (Deuteronomy 4:24, Hebrews 12:29) 
These two attributes of God are part of His Awesomeness and Majesty. 
These two attributes of God work perfectly together. 
God is Holy and hates sin; Love hates sin. His Kingdom is the absence of sin.
Sin brings death as holiness brings LIFE. 
There is no LIFE with sin and no sin in LIFE. 
In His Kingdom, in His Presence, in His Fire, no sin can exist. 
Love is a consuming fire of holiness, that brings LIFE. 

Soon, God will do away with sin as He did in the day of Noah.
He will abolish the kingdom of this world; Satan's kingdom. 
He will establish His Kingdom on earth for a thousand years.
The only people who will survive this purging of sin 
Will be The Bride of Christ.

Isaiah saw the Lord:
In the year that King Uzziah died, 
I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted, 
And the train of His robe filled the temple.
Above Him were seraphs, each with six wings:
With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet,
And with two they were flying.
And they were calling to one another:


'Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord Almighty;
The whole earth is full of His Glory.


At the sound of their voices the doorposts and the thresholds shook 
And the Temple was filled with smoke.

'Woe to me!' I cried. 'I am ruined!
For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips,
And my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty. (Isaiah 6:1-5)

So, when God Almighty returns, unrepentant mankind will be ruined.
All of their “gods,” all they exalted above the God of Creation, will be ruined.
All their cities, their Babylons, the symbols of their pride, will be ruined.

Yet, those who are holy, the pure in heart, will see the face of God. 
(Matthew 5:8)
Those who came to Christ Jesus as a child, will see their Savior;
Those who are poor in spirit, who mourn over the sin they see around them;
The meek; Those who hunger and thirst for righteousness; The merciful;
The peacemakers; Those persecuted for righteousness. (Matthew 5:1-12)

These God finds worthy of Heaven and His Kingdom;
Those with the heart of His Christ, Jesus; those gently and humble in heart;
Those who purify themselves in the All Consuming Fire of God Almighty,
Which is the Heart of Christ Jesus, Who is Love.

As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
