  • 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.

I think I covered that in previous posts.

Yes - But you can't be 100% sure facts are accurate. Philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche said, 'There are no facts, only interpretations. ' And memories are flexible, fallible, and sometimes wrong. You literally reconstruct them every time.

But there are facts. Fire burns, water is wet and freezes at a certain temperature. Historical characters - Julius Caesar, Herod, Pontius Pilate, Henry VIII lived. You can't interpret those things.

And facts that can be proven are not memories.

The problem with Nietzsche is that he states his statement “There is no facts, only interpretations” as a fact to prove that facts do not exist. :doh:

Space is not Heaven. Space is part of God’s creation that includes the planets and the stars. Heaven is where God has lived for eternity so Heaven is eternal.

That seems to be taking bible verses out of their context. When Jesus is referred to as the chief cornerstone, it is in the context o His church, not the earth:

“19 Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief [cornerstone], 21 in whom the whole building, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, 22 in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.” (Eph 2:19-22 NKJV)

Nothing is said about the church or the earth being a flat plane.

The foundation of the Gospel, church and Christian faith - NOT the earth.
Nobody has ever been in "space."

Space is not heaven.
You are calling all the eyewitnesses "liars", even the born again Christians. Yet when comments have been made about Dean Odel and the creator of that "200 verses" chart, your response has been, "rubbish, they are born again Christians."

It seems you will only believe born again Christians if they believe the same as you.
That means, for you, the beliefs that the earth is flat and the moon landings didn't happen are far more important than the fact that someone believes in Jesus and has received him as their Saviour.

The whole earth is visible from
singular high altitude perspectives,
without refraction.

Job 28:24 For he looketh to the ends of the earth,
and seeth under the whole heaven.
Joh 12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will
draw all men unto me.
Dan 4:11 The tree grew, and was strong, and the
height thereof reached unto heaven, and the sight
thereof to the end of all the earth.
Dan 4:20 The tree that thou sawest, which grew,
and was strong, whose height reached unto the
heaven, and the sight thereof to all the earth.
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.
Luk 4:5 And the devil, taking him up into an high
mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the
world in a moment of time.
Rev 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every
eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him:
and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of
him. Even so, Amen.
Isa 40:5 And the glory of the LORD shall be
revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the
mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.

The dimensions of the earth are
unknown.


Job 38:18 Hast thou perceived the breadth of the
earth? Declare if thou knowest it all.
Pro 25:3 The heaven for height, and the earth for
depth, and the heart of kings is unsearchable.
Job 38:5 Who fixed its dimensions? Certainly you
know! Who stretched a measuring line across it?
Jer 31:37 Thus saith the LORD; If heaven above can
be measured, and the foundations of the earth
searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed
of Israel for all that they have done, saith the LORD.

The earth is circular in shape, like a
compass.


Pro 8:27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there:
when he set a compass upon the face of the depth.
Setting a compass on the face of the deep doesn't mean that the earth is circular.
Isa 40:22 It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the
earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers;
that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain.
For the umpteenth time you quote this verse as though it said, "It is he that sitteth upon the
earth, and the earth is a circle." The verse does not say that. It says that the Lord sits on the circle, compass or circuit of the earth, so the earth has a circle. Spheres have circles. The earth's equator is one. "The circle of the earth" does not mean the same thing as "The earth is a circle." If somebody visited you at home, they could say, "I visited the home of Apple Sky." Nobody would think he or she meant, "Apple Sky is a home," would they? So why do you twist Isaiah's words, "The circle of the earth" to make them mean, "The earth is a circle?"
Job 38:14 The earth is changed as clay is by a seal; its
hills stand out like the folds of a garment.
Once again, you have missed the context, which is the coming of the dawn, whose light causes the features of the earth to be clearly seen.
Job 26:10 He hath compassed the waters with
bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
True, but that says nothing about the earth's shape.
Psa 88:17 They came round about me daily like
water; they compassed me about together.

Again, nothing about the earth's shape.
Isa 44:13 The carpenter stretcheth out his rule; he
marketh it out with a line; he fitteth it with planes,
and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh
it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty
of a man; that it may remain in the house.
Once more, nothing about the earth's shape.
The Earth has borders. Antarctica is
an ice wall surrounding us.


Gen 1:10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the
gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and
God saw that it was good.
Psa 33:7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together
as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.
Pro 8:27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there:
when he set a compass upon the face of the depth.
Isa 40:22 It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the
earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers;
that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and
spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in.
Job 26:10 He hath compassed the waters with
bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
Job 38:8 Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it
brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?
Job 38:11 And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but
no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?
Psa 74:17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth:
thou hast made summer and winter.
Psa 104:9 Thou hast set a bound that they may not
pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.
Act 17:26 And hath made of one blood all nations of
men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and
None of those verses even mention an ice wall that surrounds the earth, or Antarctica. Indeed neither of those things is even mentioned in the bible.

Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. Job 38:4
How does that verse answer my post? I wrote that when Jesus is called the Chief Cornerstone, the context shows that He is the Cornerstone of His church. You answer with a verse from Job, not about the church, or Jesus, but about the earth.
