Theodore of Mopsuestia, on Heb 12:28

“Therefore receiving an immoveable kingdom, we have grace; whereby let us serve, pleasing God, with fear and reverence.”

“The apostle did not think it possible to describe God's judgment sufficiently in any other way than through an analogy from our experience, and for this reason he did not hesitate to call God "fire."”
