If you knew anything, you would know that the natural realm parallels the spiritual realm for example.
what occurs during childbirth? First the water breaks then comes the blood then the spirit
How is someone born again? repents and is baptized (water,) remission of sin (through the blood of Jesus) receives the holy spirit (ie. the fire at Pentecost)
the Bible says that there will be a new Earth, it has to be reborn the same as everything else. It was flooded (baptized), cleansed of sin (By Jesus spilling his blood on it) then it will be purged by fire (spirit)
2 Peter 3:12
Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
