Of course the Bible doesn't match up with science. It's not a text book of any stripe. It's a book written by ancient Bronze Age Jews, especially regarding the parts you and your ilk unduly focus on. Unless of course you want God to be deceptive, which is the only way to square things away at all.

Cop out answer on the latter. You saying that "science will be brought down along with Satan" is very unambiguous and written in plain English.

I am so glad that your ilk is confined to the US.

Brought down is referring to the deceptions, they will eventually be exposed.

Well do not worry there is absolutely no reason to go over to Europe concerning any Biblical related reason.

But there are no deceptions, only your claims that make out God to be deceptive.

Doubling down on your beliefs does not make you right.
You live in a very small world, and that's just sad to see.

I am not condemning any scientist to hell. i just state what they say does not match up with what is written in The Bible.
Scientist are only reporting what God's Creation, as Created by God, is showing them. As I stated in an earlier post, the cosmology in the Bible is more in line with the ancient middle-eastern worldview, but not modern astrophysics.

The way I look at it, to deny what God's own Creation, as Created by God and what God is showing us thru His Creation..it's that denial of what God Created is where the deception lies.

When, in my youth, I was a Christian I had no difficulty reconciling scripture with the findings of science, for there was nothing to reconcile. Science seemed to me then to be discovering the wonders of a God created universe and its workings via the intelligence, curiosity and skills of scientists. Now I see scientists discovering the wonders of a universe, its origin yet a mystery, via intelligence, curiosity and skills for whose origin we have reasonbaly good explanations. Either perspective seems to me pretty awesome.

When I see denial of evidence, refusal to use ones curiosity and intellect, whether God given or natural I am saddened. I don't know what combination of upbringing, life experience and chance brings someone to that position. I suspect that arguing against it, as you are explicitly and I am implicitly, likely entrenches the denial. It is frustrating.

I am still waiting on your apology the astroimages I have posted on this site over the years are the work of the fraudster.
Since outer space "will be exposed as deceptive", explain how I obtained this image.

Do you think the image is a painting on a canvas as outer space is "deceptive" what ever that is supposed to mean?

And there are only preachers who are preaching a works salvation message. Whatever is being stated as truth, if the message does not line up with The Bible, I do not believe it.

What are all those stars doing there, since they are invisible to the naked eye? What purpose did they serve until scientists invented the telescope and sensitive cameras? Seems a rather pointless exercise when they could only be viewed for around 2% of history. (150/6000 approx.) If these times are so filled with sin as you assert, how come God would reserve such awesome views for now?

God has, in fact, written two books, not just one. Of course, we are all familiar with the first book he wrote, namely Scripture. But he has written a second book called creation.

You didn't answer the question, the objects in the image are in 'outer space' just like my image of Jupiter which you implied was fraudulent and therefore an act of deception.

Your simple minded binary approach of labelling scientists and individuals in general as being deceptive because they don't conform to your view of the Bible, says more about your own character than the reputations of those you are smearing.

I do not see a difference, as The Bible states God place the created lights in the raqia (dome, sky, expanse, vault).

Which is where they are seen. This photo of the moon, the moon is in the sky and not 200,000+ miles away in an outer space.

Like i wrote, they are in the upper part of sky/raqia (dome, expanse, vault, firmament) exactly where The Bible states God placed them. When God created these lights along with the other two great lights sun and moon.
They are residing in a space that is diving two large bodies of water one above the expanse and one below.

So by what higher authority than God are you claiming that the creation account in Genesis 1 is not a truthful witness of God's creation. Which is described in Genesis. 1.

Then God said, “Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years; and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth”; and it was so. Then 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. God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. So the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
