1. The movie is about retribution, closure, free will, and justice.
2. Six was "the devil" i.e. Lucifer the fallen angel.
3. The wire was stigmata; in a fit of rage triggered by Six's matchstick-snapping chaos magic, he wrapped himself in it and went about thundering passages from the Bible, especially Rapture-related ones, to justify his impending killing spree.
If it's helpful at all, the film adheres to the Christian school of thought that everyone is a sinner and that repentance is the key to salvation. As an example, Caesar had a chance to save himself from being killed and his soul from being collected when Six coaxed him into confessing about the hit and run, but he screwed it up by blaming her at the last second for walking along a country road at night.
There's no reason for anyone to ridicule you. The movie depended on a few nuanced things and cultural barriers, mood during viewing, etc. could definitely influence your interpretation.

I like your interpretation, it makes a lot of sense. However, I think you are giving the filmmakers far more credit than they deserve.

Actually, Leylahanum's description above is spot on. I'm pleased he understood that was the intention.
