Does God find arson to be a "necessary" evil?

Question

Does he always find it "necessary" to threaten people with fire, when he doesn't get his own way? A fire-god, throwing a temper tantrum?

Deuteronomy 32:22 - "For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains."

"...I'll be back to set the planet on fire, when you least expect it.... You just wait and see what I'M gonna do..."

This "fire god" of yours sounds nothing more than an angry kid, with gasoline and matches.

Answer 1

OH YES, the religious fanatics love the purifying feel of the flames - oh how they must have loved in the times of the inquisition!!

Answer 2

You will expect that God, would be opposed to set anything on fire, if Fire is for most the foundation of all evil?, although Fire is simply an element, from which the energies (eating energie), will emanate. Although there is dry Ice, as well that Ice which a different estate of other of the four elements use to produce the foundation of should we say Life, Creation, and not just an existence, because such elements where and in the emptiness of space with not time all ready, in existence. despite that is very easy for man, consider man (physicality), material existence, to fell that, we can sense as fire, hatred, jealousy, Love?, anger?, To which the so call element that can and will consume, for sure matter's and substances?, We wouldn't be able to continue calling it, Fire????, though as such fire will be (is), flame?, To which the perspective of all good cause will become a lost. just to remind you that although, with four burners! To which, hatred, jealousy, Love and anger?, can only be perceived as flames, of the same fire!....., and then there is a light, that becomes from fire, and that light is what we should be allow to see! You may ask, "Is this guy on fire", To which what can I say, Not, I'm not, but I'am, burning this time by a diferent kinf of fire, which is you can't perceived it, and respected, and guive me 10 points???????, wow, my friend see it, you just light-up, my fire, and God has pay me, to show you, that what I said is true, and because there is not an end to anithing whitout a new beginning, I got to go, and I hope I can covert this fire I can't materialize for you, in a flame of Love, and Not just fire?<< FOR A FIRE IS KINDLED?, in my anger as weell?????, "Kibbles and bit I'm going to give me, some more kibbles and bit's" <<<<>>>.I beg you please!!!!!!!!

Answer 3

Is Government a necessary evil?
Is Capitalism a necessary evil?
Is Technology a necessary evil?

Has these not brought upon man by man a form of fire?
How many wars has not used fire?
Without Government Laws to create (money) Capitalism for Technology there would be no military to enforce an idea.

So who does man imitate, perhaps the "fire god" as you say.

Answer 4

Let me ask you a question: Do you honestly believe that all those tyrants who killed millions will never be held responsible for their crimes? Do you honestly believe that child abusers and drug dealers and those who oppress the poor, and all the others who bring misery and death to our world, will never be held responsible for their crimes? I hope not.

And would it shock you to discover that no one in the Bible spoke more about judgment and Hell than Jesus? I suspect it would—and yet it's true. He warned that someday God will say to all those who have ignored His laws, "Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels" (Matthew 25:41). God is holy and just, and someday all the evils and injustices of this world will be judged.

But this isn't the whole story! God also is kind and merciful and loving (as you say), and He yearns for us to know Him and be with Him in heaven forever. That is why He sent His only Son into the world. Jesus Christ came for one reason: to save us from our sins. He did this by taking upon Himself the judgment and punishment we deserve.

The Bible says, "God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8). Don't turn your back on Christ, but by faith open your heart to Him and trust Him alone for your salvation.

Answer 5

Dude, he didn't use fire cuz he thougt it was cool. It was used as a metaphor for purging or cleansing. When he brought down fire it was to show his disgust with the sin at the time.

Arson? You're not serious. Are you?

Answer 6

You neglect to mention the sins in the preceding verses. I think Rebellion, Devil worship, Idolatry, False Gods,Vanities, etc, are quite worthy of Judgment.

Answer 7

Yea, and you're nothing more than a stinking bigot with his head up his azz.
