THE 7 ELEMENTS - FIRE

in Steem Geography3 years ago (edited)

Hello steemians,
I love this contest because of the context and idea about the epistemology of universal elements it expound. Jean Jacques Rousseau idea of education attested that nature is the best teacher. The Greek language for the word "nature" are: phusis, phusikos and phusikôs meaning being or presence. The being or presence means that there is life presence in nature or the components part of nature are made of living things. Metaphysicly, there are spirits controlling the segmental aspect of nature. The law of correspondence states that everything that exist in the physical realm has already exist in the extemporal world. According to horoscopy study of nature, every human being takes their source from these seven elements(earth, fire, space, water, wood, iron, )

I will discuss about fire in two perspective view

  • Science perspective

  • Theology perspective

SCIENCE PERSPECTIVE

Fire according to English Oxford dictionary,
A (usually self-sustaining) chemical reaction involving the bonding of oxygen with carbon or other fuel, with the production of heat and the presence of flame or smouldering.

it is the chemical combination of oxgyen, heat and fuel. As oxygen support life so it support fire. This means whatever is capable of facilitating life is also capable of causing death or destruction is carelessly handle. Heat is needed for the yeast in bread to rise, also capable of causing illness or alteration in nature if in excess. Example is global warming. sources of fossil fuel are wood, petroleum, coal, charcoal etc. They are all useful to mankind.

They are produce of nature and natural blessing for mankind. Fire being the combination of heat, oxygen and fuel. Is an integral application of natural produce. Gold is refined in fire, some metal origin existence in combine state happens through chemical combustion where fire makes major impact. The flare gas release during extraction of crude oil is fire accomplishment. People who have there source from fire, are tough, sturdy, firm in their opinion, and highly discipline individual.

THEOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE

A study of Bible cosmology review that God made the universe with fire and water. Ancient Greek philosophers had several arguments about thing and nature. Some said the nature is made water, some said air etc it is endless arguments. However, from theology perspective, the word fire appears 510times in the Bible, the meaning is same in all but symbolically used for specific purpose. And its used in diversified forms. Some of the uses are:

  • God's righteousness Judgment(Psa. 11:6)
  • God's Majesty display (Exo.24:17)
  • God's acceptance of worship (2Chron.7:1)
  • God's divine power by His Word (Jer.23:29)
  • God's divine glory (Dan.10:6)
  • God's purifying of His loved earthly people(Zec.13:9)
  • God's divine Kingdom wealth transfer (Rev.3:18)
  • God's divine testing of faith (1Peter 1:7)

In Ezekiel 28, God made Lucifer by speaking to fire and God made him to walk on coal of fire. Fire here means holiness, so the devil profaned himself through pride and became the devil and Satan-the deceiver.
