A Bizarre Thought of Mine...

This is totally not Eschatology but as I was praying for the GOD of the Bible to intervene in the oil spill issue in the Gulf of Mexico, a bizarre thought suddenly crosses my mind with this passage found in 2 Peter 3:3-10:

First of all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They will say, "Where is this 'coming' he promised? Ever since our fathers died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation." But they deliberately forget that long ago by God's word the heavens existed and the earth was formed out of water and by water. By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the Day of Judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare.

I really wonder this, “Is God going to use all this oil which has been spilled to set His Holy fire for the Day of Judgment and destruction of ungodly men?”
