Another look at the moon landing.

[Strong in Him]

This would be true if they existed, the stars exist but not galaxies and planets

2 Kings 23:5 - KJV

And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.

Anyway, planets were not something that NASA invented -

No - But their fake images of the planets are, as are their images of the whole Uni-verse.
Oh And spiraling galaxies most definitely do not exist.

 

[Apple Sky]

And there is a big difference between reading the Bible, learning what was said in the original language

I quite agree so whats wrong with the word 'Raqia' ?

 

[Strong in Him]

No - But their fake images of the planets are, as are their images of the whole Uni-verse.

Says you - someone who doesn't trust NASA and knows nothing about science.

 

[Strong in Him]

Nothing.

What's wrong is your insistence that this is something solid and, when asked, can only come up with a verse which says that it is the colour of crystal.

What's wrong is that you seem to think that believing the Bible means believing all the ideas they had back then. They didn't have the powerful telescopes and technology that we have now - therefore, there were things that they just didn't know.
But instead of rejoicing, or being in awe that we have been able to discover so much more about God's creation than they could, you dismiss all discoveries after about the time of the Apostles; claiming that scientists, astronomers, astronauts etc are all lying, deluded or trying to fool people.
Reality check: there were no computers in Bible times, so maybe you should stop using one.

And, as usual, you have quoted only part of my post and ignored the rest of it.

 

[David Lamb]

I'll go with the truth which is God's word.

So will I, and God's word uses the Hebrew word which can mean "expanse." It doesn't always mean "a solid dome."

 

[David Lamb]

No - But their fake images of the planets are, as are their images of the whole Uni-verse.
Oh And spiraling galaxies most definitely do not exist.

More statements as if they were fact, with no evidence to support them. What is your evidence that galaxies don't exist, or that the photos taken by NASA of planets are fakes. And what about photos of planets taken by individual astronomers? For example, this one of the moon and Venus, taken by someone in Shropshire, UK:

Amazing.
My attempts to photograph Venus have been disastrous.

 

[David Lamb]

But at least you can see Venus. It's real.

 

[Strong in Him]

But at least you can see Venus. It's real.

Absolutely.

 

[Apple Sky]

I believe in the word of of God.

Venus is a star.

Because if they did we are here.

Really insignificant.

 

[David Lamb]

I believe in the word of of God.


King James Bible
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

I believe in the word of God, too, so does Strong in Him. We also fully believe in the verse you quote. Please don't keep implying that we don't believe in Gods word, or 2 Timothy 3:16 just because we don't agree with your ideas about the shape of the earth, Antarctica, the location of the Garden of Eden, the moon landings, the nature of the firmament, etc.

 

[David Lamb]

Because if they did we are here.

Sorry, but how does that prove that galaxies don't exist?

 

[Apple Sky]

But at least you can see Venus. It's real

It is real but it is a star.

 

[David Lamb]

Venus is a star.

But not like the Pole Star, or Sirius. It is a wandering star, or planet. That's way it seems to move across the sky, and why it does not twinkle like the so called fixed stars.

 

[David Lamb]

It is real but it is a star.

Again, another statement with no evidence. You may get bored with me for keeping on mentioning this. The answer is simple: don't merely make statements with no evidence to back them up.

 

[Apple Sky]

But not like the Pole Star, or Sirius. It is a wandering star, or planet.

I agree, just like Mar's & Saturn etc etc, they are wandering stars.

 

[David Lamb]

I agree, just like Mar's & Saturn etc etc, they are wandering stars.

And "wandering star" is what the word "planet" comes from, two Greek words meaning "wandering" and "star." So now you do believe in planets?
