Blood for the blood god. Seems reasonable to me.

How about instantaneously changing the sinners blood into molten iron ??

Give 'em a taste of what's in store for them in HELL !!!

You guys are missing one thing.
The thing seen is a vision.
Visions can be totally symbolic or a view of an event as seen on earth.

One time, I had an open vision where I saw a metal building on fire.  My wife was with me and didn't see any flames.
I walked down to where it was and there was nothing burned.  It was symbolic.
The book of Revelation has a huge amount of symbolism.
Just make sure your aren't down there in that Valley outside Jerusalem where the real thing will unfold.
What happens to the Muslims who march on Israel (upcoming)  will be a portent of what will happen in the valley of Megiddo
(Armageddon).
 God takes no pleasure in the destruction of the wicked.
He would that all come to repentance, the two groups mentioned above will have refused over and over- until time runs out for them.

That was a visual hallucination and a certain sign of mental illness unless you were high.

See someone.

God's followers seem generally unrestrained in the glee for mishaps befalling the unSaved.

I'd think that might be a guilty pleasure for the top guy in the organization, too.

Jesus' blood has to come from somewhere. Each Sunday, a lot of Christians world-wide take communion. God's just keeping up with the demand.

Now, why he doesn't have Jesus just multiply it like he did with the fish and the bread is beyond me, but hey, mysterious ways, right?

You all are way off, try at least 5 times the highest guess.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Trust us to underestimate god's hatred of his own creation!

Kill them all aaaaargh they smell and I hate them!

When I feel like that I just load up grand theft auto. But whatever, God.
