• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Absolute proof.. can't deny.. the earth is flat

And here we have it, a simple fact, although God tells us the opposite.
Bible was not dictated by God. Therefore your dilemma "God tells us the opposite" does not exist.

Do you want a proof?

Psalm 104:5 He set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved.
This is the same Psalm that says the wind has wings and the clouds are God's chariot
1 Chronicles 16:30: "He has fixed the earth firm, immovable."
Same verses talk of the earth "fearing" God and the trees rejoicing. It is a hymn full of poetry
Psalm 93:1: "Thou hast fixed the earth immovable and firm ..."
The word translated here as "earth" actually means "inhabited world" and became synonymous with the empire
Psalm 96:10: "He has fixed the earth firm, immovable ..."
Same word as Psalm 93. The NAS translates both the above verses as "Indeed, the world is firmly established"
Isaiah 45:18: "...who made the earth and fashioned it, and himself fixed it fast..."
What translation says that? I've looked at dozens of translations and none of them say "He fixed it fast"

If you understand English properly, you can see its not God saying it, but a human author saying it - "He did xyz", not "I did xyz".

These are obviously human views, interpretations, poetry.

Call it poetry, call it what you like but it still doesn't distract from the Bible the truth, that the earth is fixed & unmovable.

Let Gods word be true & every man a liar.

So why does Paul write this.

Romans 3:4
God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.

King James Bible

I do not want to decipher the translation, provide me with a modern English one.

Tell me then what you think it means and what you think it has to do with the topic. Or, you have no idea and hope I will somehow figure it out for you?

All's I want to know is why Paul said this.......

Romans 3:4
God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.

You don't know do you ?

OK, this leads nowhere.

Back to the point - no citations you provided is God saying the Earth is flat. All the citations were of men. If you are trying to say they lied (because you are still repeating the verse every man is a liar), I do not know what you want to arrive at.

How ironic that you prove the latter part of that verse by adding your own "word" to the verse you quoted. So why should we expect you, who unfaithfully adds to the Scriptures, to faithfully interpret other Scriptures?
