Another look at the moon landing.

[Apple Sky]

Oh dear!!!!

So you are a Christian who denies God's sovereignty over His creation because....why???

Would it be too difficult for Him to do such a thing??????????

I think you need to seriously reflect on what you are saying here.

Would God do such a thing as to put all his creation at risk ?

 

[Strong in Him]

The moon landing along with other events in this age are just shadows of events to come.​

The 1969 moon landing was 56 years ago.
That's one long shadow.

The moon landing would be tied into the deception foreshadowing.

Why would it be?
Scripture?

Like the coming deception's in Revelation 13 dealing with the image of the beast. A statue who after being constructed will be able to speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.​

So how many people have been killed because they refused to worship, or acknowledge, the moon landings?

This just shows people are and will be deceived who dwell on the earth.

It shows that conspiracy theorists are out to deceive people, yes.

In this age even believers are deceived about God's creation, which is really adding fuel for satan's coming deceptions.​

i) deceived in what way?
ii) the shape of the earth has nothing to do with salvation.
iii) Those who belong to God; his children, Jesus' sheep, can never be snatched out of God's hand. And incidentally, two of God's children have walked on the moon.

I can't believe that, instead of rejoicing that two of the first things that men did when they reached the moon was a) read from Genesis 1 and b) take communion. Millions of people watched this historic event and saw these men given glory to God for his creation and the death of his Son. Who knows what effect that may have had on them? Who knows whether or not they came to faith through hearing Christian witness being broadcast from the moon?
And all some Christians can say in response is, "well it didn't happen." Sad.

At risk from what?
It was a miracle. There was never any risk to anyone; the God of the universe knew what he was doing.

I don’t know where you’re getting these mad ideas from!

Since when does God put anything at risk…by doing something as the Creator????

He’s not a human that makes mistakes, nor does He not know the outcome of anything!

How could anything be “at risk” by His hand???

There is nothing….absolutely nothing…that would be “at risk” if God is in control…and He is in control of everything!!

Conspiracy theories have your mind completely addled with irrationality!

I agree.

There is nothing….absolutely nothing…that would be “at risk” if God is in control…and He is in control of everything!!

Absolutely. - This is why God created an unmovable earth & the sun and the moon too circuit the skies on a daily basis, it couldn't be more simpler.

No, our minds are full of the truth from God.

 

[Phil G]

What???

It doesn't matter what God created, His creation would never be at risk by His hand!!!

If God created a rotating globe earth, and He stops that rotating globe earth by overruling His created laws of nature, absolutely nothing would be "at risk"....nothing!!

Otherwise you are essentially claiming that God would be subject to His creation…which would be utter rubbish.

It couldn't be more simple to understand!

No, our minds are full of the truth from God.

"Our"???

I'm talking about you, not the Borg collective!

To identify yourself like that (“we are the only ones who have the truth” type of remark) with a sub-group is very cult-like

A fake trip and a reading on a fake birthday of Jesus.
They stopped before, where Genesis states the sun, moon and stars were placed in the raqia to give light to the earth.

But that's not what happened. God didn't stop the earth he stopped the sun.

 

[Phil G]

But that's not what happened. God didn't stop the earth he stopped the sun.

That’s just making a statement again. Stop avoiding the ridiculousness of your posts.

You’ve effectively said that God couldn’t control His creation if He created a rotating globe earth, implying that He is weak, unless He created the type of earth that you claim He created.

You’re going around in circles with your posts, making unsubstantiated statements, then making ridiculous claims, and then circling back to your unsubstantiated statements again.

And not forgetting that you only take the Bible literally when it suits you…when you can use a phrase to promote a flat earth. But when a phrase contradicts a flat earth, that’s not literal. Again you are being inconsistent and hypocritical with these posts.

And you ignore the evidence you have witnessed with your own eyes…the sun looks bigger at sunrise than it does at noon, which falsifies flat earth.

And you refuse to acknowledge the inevitable implication of your posts…that you consider a Christian astronaut, who has given eyewitness testimony, not just of the shape of the earth (and other Christian astronauts too), but also of going to the moon and walking on it, as a liar.

You have sunk very low indeed.

This all, still doesn't change the fact that God stopped the sun & not the earth.

 

[Phil G]

You’re just repeating a statement.

The sun also goes down according to Scripture…but you don’t believe that one. Are you going to correct God and tell Him that “it travels further away silly”?

 

[Apple Sky]

No, as the sun does go down, it sets in the west & rises in the east.

 

[Phil G]

No, as the sun does go down, it sets in the west & rises in the east.

But according to you it doesn’t go down, it only “appears to”.

 

[prodromos]

No, as the sun does go down, it sets in the west & rises in the east.

Which can't work on a flat earth.

 

[Apple Sky]

Which can't work on a flat earth.

And please enlighten me, why ever not ?

That's correct.

A fake trip

Why would anyone go to the trouble, and vast expense, of faking a trip to the moon - or several trips, I should say.

List of missions to the Moon - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

In total, 12 men have walked on the moon.

and a reading on a fake birthday of Jesus.

Where did I say that this took place on Christmas day.
A fake trip and a reading on a fake birthday of Jesus.

They stopped before, where Genesis states the sun, moon and stars were placed in the raqia to give light to the earth.

So? They couldn't read all of Genesis 1.
The only people to make something out of that are conspiracy theorists who are focusing on what was not read and not on what was.

Think about it for even a minute.
The space launch is successful and men step onto the moon - I know you say it was fake but just put that aside for a moment. Those men could have stood there and said, "well, we're making history; WE did this." They could have said "long live communism" or "this is man's highest achievement; there is no God."
Instead, millions of people heard them reading from the Bible and saw, or were told, that they took Holy Communion. They were honouring God and celebrating Jesus.

This should be a cause for celebration among Christians - at least one astronaut became a believer afterwards.
Instead of which you, Apple sky and maybe others here are casting aspersions or simply flat out denying the moon landings, just because you read Scripture in a certain way.

I know which witness I prefer.

 

[Phil G]

That's correct.

Then why does Scripture tell us it goes down?

“And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.” Genesis 15:12 KJV

 

[Strong in Him]

No, as the sun does go down, it sets in the west & rises in the east.

That's correct.

So either the sun goes down or it appears to go down - it can't be both.

Never mind about contradicting scientists; you contradict yourself.

 

[Phil G]

And please enlighten me, why ever not ?

You’ve been enlightened many, many times in these threads. You just ignore it all, contradict yourself, and repeat statements, parroting other flat earthers without understanding anything you say.
