"Will the tribulation and the second advent of Jesus be accompanied with fire and burning?"


Will the tribulation and the second advent of Jesus be accompanied with fire and burning?

Malachi 4:1 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

others wrote of it in the old testament, like the psalmist:

Isaiah:
