Question
when the world was destroyed the first time, God used water. the bible talks about the world will be destroyed again. i think it also says that it will be destroyed by something different, like the oppostite. so, my question is: how should the world be destroyed the 2nd time? In the new testiments: Matthew chapter 1 through 3, it talks about jesus being a Jew. so, if we believe in jesus and or god, would we be not jewish???
i know that there are the people in the church that have a higher purpose than others. what are all the types of people ( priests, pope, minister, pastor... ) and what is there purpose. i am new to this stuff and have gone to a church before, but there is some things i just don't understand. if you know anything about this, let me know...     thanks

Answer
1. The world will be destroyed by fire after the battle of Gog and Magog (Re.20:9).

2. Jesus was born Hebrew but BECAME the chief cornerstone of His living body (the church - 1 Cor.10:32), at His baptism (Eph.2:20).  There is neither Jew nor Gentile in Christ Jesus; we are all one.

3. God calls each of us to our vocation (Eph.4:11).
