Pilgrim: (There appears to be both a "departing" TO "eternal fire" and not just a departing FROM God)<br><br>seya: "Our [very] God is a consuming fire." ! Heb 12:29 <br>Think of the burning bush that was not consumed. <br>Of Peter who wrote ep 1,v 1 "That the trial of your faith, [being much more precious than of gold that is perishable,] though it be tried with FIRE, might be found unto praise and honor and glory, at the appearing of Jesus Christ." Spiritual things indeed are spiritually discerned.<br>
