HEAVEN

WATER FIRE
The gospel has always been to the Jew first, then to the Gentile / Greek [the unstable one]:
Romans 1
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God
….to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first
...and also for the Greek [the unstable; the miry one].
17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written,
…."The just shall live by faith."
John the Baptist came preaching to Jews - REPENT, the KINGDOM OF HEAVEN is at hand. He declares the 'message of heaven': water, Holy Spirit, and fire.
Matthew 3
1 In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea,
2 and saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!"
8 Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance,
9 and do not think to say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our father.'
..For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.
10 And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees.
....Therefore every tree which does not beargood fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
......Romans 1
....18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and
…......unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
....19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them,
…......for God has shown it to them.
....20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen,
…......being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead,
…......so that they are without excuse,
....21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful,
…......but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
....22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,
....23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man
…......and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
Revelation 19:6
And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, "Alleluia! For the Lord God Omnipotent reigns!
Genesis and Revelation are 'ALEF ) and TAV t' books, the 'first and last, alpha and omega'. QUF q [19] is the letter of 'false imitations of the world versus holiness. Here in Revelation 19, the voice of a great multitude is heard in triumph of holiness, 'our God reigns'.
FIRE, #), is first seen in Genesis, chapter 15 [Samek s / the wedding ring] when God cuts covenant with Abram by 'fire', but the second mention again relates to QUF, Genesis 19, showing the 'false imitations of the world', and heavens effect on Sodom [burning] and Gommorah [submersion].
Genesis 19
23 The sun had risen upon the earth when Lot entered Zoar [insignificance;
... to be made little, brought low]
24 Then the LORD rained brimstone and fire on
... Sodom [burning] and Gomorrah [submersion], from the LORD out of the heavens.
25 So He overthrew those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities,
... and what grew on the ground.
The last mention of 'fire' is aptly related in Revelation 21 #, SHIN FIRE, particularly 'fire and brimstone'.
Revelation 21
6 And He said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End.
..I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts.
7 He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son.
8 But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers,
..idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone,
..which is the second death."
....24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts,
.......to dishonor their bodies among themselves,
....25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature
.......rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
....26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions.
.......For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.
....27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman,
.......burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful,
.......and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
John the Baptist in the spirit of Elijah preached:
Matthew 3
11 I indeed baptize you with WATER UNTO REPENTANCE, but He who is coming after me is
....mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry.
....HE WILL BAPTIZE YOU WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT and FIRE.
WATER UNTO REPENTANCE
....Hebrews 6
....1 Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ,
.......let us go on to perfection,
.......not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works
.......and of faith toward God,
....2 of the doctrine of baptisms,
.......of laying on of hands,
.......of resurrection of the dead,
.......and of eternal judgment.
....3 And this we will do if God permits.
HOLY SPIRIT
.....4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened,.......and have tasted the heavenly gift,
......and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit,
....5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come,
....6 if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance,
........since they crucify again for themselves
.......the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.
....7 For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it,
.......and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated,
.......receives blessing from God;
Matthew 3
11 His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor,
....and gather His wheat into the barn;....but HE WILL BURN UP THE CHAFF WITH
... UNQUENCHABLE FIRE.
...5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old,
.....and the earth standing out of water and in the water,
...6 by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water.
...7 But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word,
.....are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
...8 But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as
.....a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
...9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness,
.....but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish
.....but that all should come to repentance.
.......Romans 1
.......28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge,
...........God gave them over to a debased mind,to do those things which are not fitting;
.......29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness,
...........maliciousness; full of envy, murder,strife, deceit, evil-mindedness...
.......30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things,
.......... disobedient to parents,
.......31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;
.......32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God,
...........that those who practice such things are deserving of death...
...10. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night,
........in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise,
........and the elements will melt with fervent heat;
........both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.
...11.Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons
.......ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness,
...12.looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens
.......will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?
...13.Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which ....righteousness dwells.
...14.Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace,
.......without spot and blameless;
...15.and consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation as also our beloved brother Paul,
.......according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you,
...16.as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things,
.......in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people
.......twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures.
...17.You therefore, beloved, since you know this beforehand, beware lest you
.......also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the error of the wicked;
...18. but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
.......To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.
Revelation 21
..9 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls
.....filled with the seven last plagues came to me and talked with me, saying,
.... saying, "Come, I will show you the bride, the Lamb's wife.
10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me
.....the great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God
12 ...twelve angels at the gates, and names written on them,
....which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
14 twelve foundations,
....and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
