That is exactly what it looks like to anybody who can read, which is me claiming that the Bible does not say that the Earth is flat. Giving me verses to read and telling me to learn Hebrew won't help your case because the Bible still won't say the Earth is flat.

so you are not just admitting that you purposefully subvert the TOS, but you are actually boasting of it?

clear troll.
i doubt you even believe any of the nonsense you're posting.

Yeah, they keep pretending the Bible says things it does not. Oh, well. Perhaps @Oncefallen can sort it out again...

So once again, you're providing an opinion and zero scripture to support this topic! Did you even read the verses that were provided to you? That's the whole point of this discussion.

For the fifth time, I am not saying it is flat. Quit putting words into this discussion topic that only you're mentioning. Give me one verse that supports your heliocentric theory then?

Hey folks, just another beautiful day in the foothills of South Carolina and I was reading an article concerning new theories concerning the universe.

Studies by very, very great scientific minds have concluded that the universe is expanding outward. Can we theoretically reverse the expansion process on paper and bring it all back in to the place where it must have started if it is expanding. That, of course, depends on my very limited knowledge or ability to even discern knowledge on the matter. But it would seem that, much like the rings of a ripple when you drop a pebble in a body of water, if you could stop and theoretically reverse the travel of the ripple, you would find yourself at the place where the pebble went into the water.

If this theory is true, then where might any of you believe that following the expansion of the universe back to where, and even when, it began its expansion process, would leave us?

How Science Suggests God May Have Created the Universe (msn.com)

I think it's about the 9th panel in the article that discusses the expanding universe worked out by Georges Lemaître. That Einstein chastised himself for holding to the static universe theory for which he had created a constant. Pretty amazing stuff when you read of supposed scientific theories that could support the story that God has told us. And they print it right out in the open for everyone to read. God can do the impossible my brothers and sisters.

God bless,
Ted

Does the earth have to the center of the universe?

We may never know how vast the universe is and it would be futile to even speculate.

Perhaps you could get honest and admit that I never said you claim the Earth was flat and you could also get honest about the fact that I haven't said anything about a heliocentric system either. Why do you want me to read those verses if they don't claim the Earth is flat?? You should make up your mind.

I already screen shot this once but here goes a second time.

The scripture I proved disproves the initial topic of this discussion. That's the whole point here but you would rather make assumptions and provide nothing biblical to this discussion.
