Hi Anthony,

Here are a few Scripture that show how God indeed is "a consumingn fire."

Deu 4:24  For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.

Heb 12:29  For our God is a consuming fire.

Exo 13:21  And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:

Exo 3:2  And the Angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.

Deu 4:12  And the LORD spoke unto you out of the midst of the fire:

Rev 1:14  His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire;
v. 15  His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters;
v. 16  He had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength.

In Acts you will see hoe the Holy Spirit is also "as a fire."

Acts 2:1 When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
v. 2  And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
v. 3  Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire[/u], and one sat upon each of them.
v.4  And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

And here in Jeremiah the God says "My words" spoken are like fire.
 
Jer 5:14  Wherefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make My words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.

mercy, peace and love

As far as I can see, the "born of WATER" simply means born from the womb, which IS indeed "of water" (which breaks just before actual birth). This is the FIRST birth. The "born AGAIN" part is being born of God's Spirit (the SECOND birth).

I find this interesting when thinking of the first and second DEATH! 2 Births and 2 Deaths.
