We know that God is love. He is also a consuming fire. Hebrews 12:28-29 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: For our God is a consuming fire.
White fire is a very intense and efficient burn with temperatures exceeding 2,700 degrees. It would be perfect for incinerating hazardous materials and contaminants.
Revelation 1:14-15 Jesus is described: His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
Malachi 3:2-3 But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness.
Speaking of Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration: Mark 9:3 And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them.
2 Corinthians 5:21: For He hath made Him (Jesus) who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.
1 Peter 1:15-16 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
That was a quote from Leviticus 11:44 For I am the Lord your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy:
2 Corinthians 7:1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
1 Thessalonians 3:12-13 And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.
The fierce God David knew and trusted to give the enemy Goliath into his hand is that same God who loved us so that he sent his son Jesus to die in our place for our sins, so we can be THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD in Christ Jesus.
We take his righteousness the same way we took salvation. We believe it. We confess it. When we repent, scripture tells us that we are washed white as snow.
Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
If you have sinned, get over yourself and stop holding on to sin consciousness. Our God the Creator, Almighty God has provided sin exhalation. Repent and take it as your own, rejecting the devil’s reminders of all you’re not.
Psalm 103:11-12 For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
