Biblical Concept: God’s Democide*

Prologue: God’s curse of / on humanity for volitional rebellion has caused the physical death of every human. (Enoch, Elijah, and Rapture Generation Christians exempted.  It is noted that the beast and false prophet of Revelation 19:20 will have this special death: . . . these two were thrown alive into the lake of fire which burns with brimstone.”)

Human history is an account of premature death:

Genesis 6:5-7  5 Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.  6 And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.  7 And the LORD said, "I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the land, from man to animals to creeping things and to birds of the sky; for I am sorry that I have made them." (Man had multiplied on earth in a near perfect environment / Genesis 6:1 / post fall / pre flood.) (God eliminated all but eight persons in the flood—a huge number.)

Exodus 11:4-6  4 And Moses said, "Thus says the LORD, 'About midnight I am going out into the midst of Egypt,  5 and all the first-born in the land of Egypt shall die, from the first-born of the Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the first-born of the slave girl who is behind the millstones; all the first-born of the cattle as well.  6 'Moreover, there shall be a great cry in all the land of Egypt, such as there has not been before and such as shall never be again.  

2 Kings 19:35   35 Then it happened that night that the angel of the LORD went out, and struck 185,000 in the camp of the Assyrians; and when men rose early in the morning, behold, all of them were dead.

Large sections of the Biblical Major and Minor Prophets describe a Divine destruction of Israel. 

The whole Biblical book of Nahum describes a coming Divine destruction of Nineveh (Assyrians).

Matthew 10:28  28 "And do not fear those who kill the body, but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. 

The sixth trumpet judgment of the Great Tribulation will kill one third of humanity. (Revelation 9;18-21) (But remember God is love and desires the death of no man.)

Epilogue: Humans are God’s tool for resolving the Angelic Conflict.  Recall the Biblical Concept: Fear God.
