Flat Earth Theory.

[Apple Sky]

Did I say that? No I did not. You are deliberately lying about me now.

No I'm not, this is what you said.

That is YOUR interpretation of the Bible. God has no part in that.

 

[Phil G]

No I'm not, this is what you said.

I did not say that God did not create the world. I said that God has no part in YOUR interpretation of the Bible. And YOUR interpretation of the Bible is that God created a flat earth. You have now lied twice about me. I have NEVER in my life said that God did not create the world.

 

[Apple Sky]

I did not say that God did not create the world. I said that God has no part in YOUR interpretation of the Bible.

My interpretation of the Bible was, 'God created the earth with a dome over it, to which, God set two great lights & all the stars within, that rotate on a daily basis.'Genisis 1
Plus God has said that the earth is unmovable for ever.

And you claimed that God has no part in.

 

[Phil G]

My interpretation of the Bible was, 'God created the earth with a dome over it, to which, God set two great lights & all the stars within, that rotate on a daily basis.'
Plus God has said that the earth is unmovable for ever.

And you claimed that God has no part in.

God has no part in that! He created the world, but not like that! There is no dome. Immovable is immovable from His decrees, not immovable at all.

God has no part in that! He created the world, but not like that!

Sorry to disappoint you but he did

There you again, making your interpretation God's words. You have absolutely no evidence that that is the reality. And you are claiming to speak for God in persisting with it when all the evidence, including eyewitness accounts from anyone who seriously studies the night sky, points against it. All you do is parrot claims and that's it. You have no substance behind them and no understanding of them.

 

[Apple Sky]

There you again, making your interpretation God's words. That's claiming to speak for God.

I'm not interpreting God's words, it is God's words in Genesis 1 & I certainly do not to speak for God.

King James Bible
And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
King James Bible
And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
King James Bible
And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth

I'm not interpreting God's words, it is God's words in Genesis 1 & I certainly do not to speak for God.

King James Bible

Where is the dome? I have said before that the word translated as firmament is not necessarily solid in the original Hebrew. You won't accept that because you are ignorant of Hebrew. That's why you are so gullible. How can the sun and moon be 'in' the 'firmament' when it is supposedly solid? And how do they move at different speeds to themselves and the stars while 'in' the supposedly solid 'firmament'? And how does the moon move in front of the sun during a solar eclipse when they are 'in' the supposedly solid 'firmament'? They have to be at different distances from the earth to do that, never mind moving in something 'solid'.

All of how you interpret those words are just your interpretation. They do not match the evidence of the real world. If the evidence doesn't match your interpretation (and it doesn't by a long long way) then your interpretation is not what God says. You are therefore misrepresenting God all the way, claiming your own words to be His.

 

[trophy33]

it is God's words in Genesis 1

Oh mine, the error again. Cannot you even see that the Genesis 1 is written in the third person? "God did..." not "I did". So the text cannot be God's words, even just grammatically.

 

[Strong in Him]

Sorry to disappoint you but he did

Oh I'm sorry. All this time and I didn't realise that you were there.

 

[Apple Sky]

Nobody has to be there to believe in God's word.

 

[Phil G]

Nobody has to be there to believe in God's word.

The real Word of God, not your version of God's word, which is full of wrong interpretation. Do you actually believe the Gospel? Do you even know what the Gospel is? You seem to be one of the most confused of people I have come across regarding Scripture.

 

[Strong in Him]

Oh mine, the error again. Cannot you even see that the Genesis 1 is written in the third person? "God did..." not "I did". So the text cannot be God's words, even just grammatically.

Yes, that's quite true.
Genesis does not say, "then I, the Lord, said, 'let there be light'." Or "then I divided the waters .... and I did it in this way."
If God HAD been dictating, he would not have written about himself in the 3rd person.

 

[Apple Sky]

You are therefore misrepresenting God all the way, claiming your own words to be His.

Well I didn't write Genesis, I can't help whats written, I am just the reader.

 

[Phil G]

No you can't help what's written, but you can help how you interpret what's written.

Firmament: A Word No More — Cultish

Too often, Christians think in terms of surface, rather than substance. If we could move beyond the surface to the real thing, the real issue underneath, then our discussions would be much more fruitful, and we wouldn’t talk past each other so much. When you say something enough times, and you hear

No you can't help what's written, but you can help how you interpret what's written.

And you can help by not editing what's written.

Sorry if my editing of my own comments annoys you. I'll try not to do it in future!

But I don't edit God's word, only provide a different view to yours.

Satan also quoted God's word as it was written.

Here on this forum, about 98% believe in a globe earth, even though The Bible describes a different creation than what science states. So much for faith in God's word about creation.

Yeah, but those who hold to an Ancient Near East (ANE) perspective don't have to be liberal scholars. Dr. Michael Heiser was a conservative scholar I believe and besides if you hold to a non concordist view of creation, then it's poetry, not meant to be taken literally. I'm not sure the Bible really speaks scientifically on the shape of entire earth.

Where ?
