What I think on these questions proposed in some comments above and below: "quicksilver" can refer to the etymological part: it changes shape quickly. Besides, quicksilver can be used as a modifier to depict a person who is quick thinking, now, he is definitely quick, although here there was a jump from one homonym to the other homonym, so it is interesting but dubious. Besides, if you look at these: "it is quick", and "is a gift" notice that there is equivalency at first, and a reference at second just as inside the word quicksilver.

It is only the matter of circumstance whether mercury is liquid or solid hereby referring to the variable nature of it. Furthermore: it is possible that the emphasis is actually not put on the word "solid" here, but much more on "liquid", referencing to the material itself in its most common form, while "solid" refers to the solids (constant shape or 3d) named after the material. Other things are also possible.

It is
Silver
We gift silver . Silver kills vampires. It is measure in rank . It is solid .After melting it is liquid. We all know quick silver . And a silver car. I think Glass house means Silver Jewellery for show in jewellery shops.

"It is solid .After melting it is liquid." That's about the least specific fit to those words possible. Basically everything (there's a few exceptions like dry ice) melts from a solid to a liquid.

I think it is
Mercury.
IT IS DIVINE
Mercury is the Roman god of war, also known as Hermes in Greek mythology.
IT’S A KILLER
Mercury is extremely poisonous to humans.
IT’S A GIFT
Does this refer to Mercury Gift cards? I'm not sure about this one...
IT’S A MEASURE
mmHg stands for millimeter of mercury, which is a unit of measure used in the mathematics behind a mercury thermometer. An inch of mercury is also a unit of measure.
IT’S A SOLID
The planet Mercury is a solid object.
IT’S A LIQUID
The element is liquid at room temperature.
IT’S QUICK
Another name for Mercury is quicksilver, due to its liquid nature at room temperature despite being a metal.
IT’S A CAR
Lincoln Mercury is a type of car. (Well, now I don't think it's called that anymore, but it used to be.)
IT’S HERE IN A GLASS HOUSE
Mercury used to be what was placed in the glass of a thermometer to measure the temperature. Not anymore though, due to its dangerous nature.
IT’S VERY VERY FAR
The planet Mercury is very very far.

While it isn't 'against the rules' as such, it's recommended that you check existing answers first, then only post a separate answer if it hasn't already been done. You can always upvote other people's answers if you think they have it right, or comment on them if you think they nearly have it right and may have missed something. This community thrives both on new insights and on friendly collaboration. If everybody posted what they thought was the right answer and it already existed the site would be swamped in identical answers! By all means solve yourself first but only share if it's new!

"It is solid .After melting it is liquid." That's about the least specific fit to those words possible. Basically everything (there's a few exceptions like dry ice) melts from a solid to a liquid.

I think it is
Mercury.
IT IS DIVINE
Mercury is the Roman god of war, also known as Hermes in Greek mythology.
IT’S A KILLER
Mercury is extremely poisonous to humans.
IT’S A GIFT
Does this refer to Mercury Gift cards? I'm not sure about this one...
IT’S A MEASURE
mmHg stands for millimeter of mercury, which is a unit of measure used in the mathematics behind a mercury thermometer. An inch of mercury is also a unit of measure.
IT’S A SOLID
The planet Mercury is a solid object.
IT’S A LIQUID
The element is liquid at room temperature.
IT’S QUICK
Another name for Mercury is quicksilver, due to its liquid nature at room temperature despite being a metal.
IT’S A CAR
Lincoln Mercury is a type of car. (Well, now I don't think it's called that anymore, but it used to be.)
IT’S HERE IN A GLASS HOUSE
Mercury used to be what was placed in the glass of a thermometer to measure the temperature. Not anymore though, due to its dangerous nature.
IT’S VERY VERY FAR
The planet Mercury is very very far.

While it isn't 'against the rules' as such, it's recommended that you check existing answers first, then only post a separate answer if it hasn't already been done. You can always upvote other people's answers if you think they have it right, or comment on them if you think they nearly have it right and may have missed something. This community thrives both on new insights and on friendly collaboration. If everybody posted what they thought was the right answer and it already existed the site would be swamped in identical answers! By all means solve yourself first but only share if it's new!
