Whether or not it was a miracle that the Church buildings were unaffected by the fire, and whether or not "God wasn't merciful enough to save the other properties but chose to save church buildings", I feel the main message this passes across to the world is that salvation is only found in the cross of Jesus Christ.

Just like in the days of Noah when those who were in the Ark were not affected by the flood. The Ark typifies Christ in whom there is no condemnation for those who are in Him.

You can see that the Church buidling spared from the fire all had the cross signs on them. And the cross of Jesus Christ means there has been a death, therefore another death cannot be exerted where there has been a death. The Angel of death could not exert death on the Israelites on the night of the passover, because the shedded blood of the passover lamb was applied on the doorposts and on the lintels, which formed a cross sign. And Christ is the true Passover Lamb!

I believe that what God is passing across to us is that the saved church building typifies/foreshadows that all those who put their trust in the cross of Jesus Christ would be saved from the "wrath to come" as the Bible puts it (see 1.Thess 1:10).

It is a message that is suppose to cause a change of mind to believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ, the only way unto salvation.

God is already merciful enough to have provided salvation for all mankind through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and only those who receive this gift of salvation by believing on the Lord Jesus Christ would be saved.


Acts 16:30-31 KJV:
And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

JESUS is Lord.

Mosques too.

Like I said it's my take, I'm not forcing you to believe.


Meanwhile, can you show the top view of the building? I want to check something.

If you want to check the top view of the building, perhaps go there and look with your own eyes instead of asking me to show you. The book does after all say seek with all your own heart and soul and mind, and not with the heart and soul and mind of others who might deceive you into believing.

You can't force me to believe and neither can I force you to believe.
