Shall we duplicate that experiment?But also: Isaiah 11:12 And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. (Is the earth a circle or does it have corners?)The Bible Foreshadows Scientific Discoveries
What is the Shape of the Earth?
Today we take the shape of the earth for granted, but remember that primitive man had no way to actually know that the earth is spherical. In fact, without access to exploration and distant observation, the world most certainly seemed flat, and that is exactly how primitive men and cultures described it. But the Bible describes it differently:
Isaiah 40:22
He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like a tent to live in.
Proverbs 8:27
When He prepared the heavens, I was there: when He set a compass upon the face of the depth
MAT 4:8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; (which is not possible with a round earth).
A circle is not a sphere, but beyond that, where is any evidence that the Jews, based solely on the scriptures, believed the earth to be spherical?
But also from Job: Job 9:6 "Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble."
Job 38:4-6 "Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.
Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?
Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof; "
And Psalm 75:3 "The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah."
It also apparently has doors: Job 38:8-11 "Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?
When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,
And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,
And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed? "
But apparently it also has storehouses of weather:
Job 38:22-23
Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail,
Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war"
Foundations? I thought the Bible made it clear the earth hung on nothing?Psalm 102:22-26
In the beginning you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. Like clothing you will change them and they will be discarded
Hebrews 1:10-11
In the beginning, O Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment.
And you forgot to mention the Bible's take on Genetics:
Gen 30:38-39
"And he set the rods which he had pilled before the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs when the flocks came to drink, that they should conceive when they came to drink.
And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ringstraked, speckled, and spotted."
Oh, and don't forget talking serpents (which eat dust) and talking donkeys. Yep, loads of scientific accuracy there.
And of course the geocentric model of the solar system:
Joshua 10:13 13
"And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day."
2 Kings 20:11
"And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz. "
How do those work again?
In short, as has already been pointed out, all the "scientific discoveries" were not actually known prior to the real scientific discoveries, but have only been retro-fitted explanations.
Just for you pinqy,several videos for you.
11-Big Bang or Big Dud?
13-Science Refutes Neo-Darwinism
18-Old Earth Brainwashing
28-Dinosaurs and Man
29-Fire Breathing Dragons?
30-Pre-Historic or Pre-Flood?
So you're pointing out things from the bible that takes faith to believe but it also takes faith to believe in creation and even takes faith for you to believe that man made theory of evolution.
I would explain why the serpent was talking but you really are not interested unless you see it for yourself ,but let me recommend a movie so you get the point.Anthony hopkins is in this movie called " The Rite" you should understand the talking serpent after viewing this movie.
So you are just gonna reject the things written in the bible that have been confirmed by science. So are you really looking for truth or do you have an agenda ?[/QUOTE]
I was wondering when you were going to introduce the tour guide.
Heres some videos Id like you to watch, since I did watch a number of yours. parts 2-23 are linked under the first video-
