I state my position that i believe, Gods creation is not what science says. and I use the Bible along with photos i have taken. But even though i have ask question in the past about of things science says i do not approach this from a scientific angle. Will not post experiments i have conducted, etc.. (i do not, don't care to, conduct experiments).
I see the sun moving in the sky (raqia, 1st heaven) most everyday along with the moon and stars. I see a moon which is a lesser light as the Bible states.
I am not a scientist, i am a visual artist, any photography i do would come under art. I simply photographed/recorded stars God created did not do any science experiments .
And i do not believe i said anything about anybody else posting photos or not to post photos. I just believe photos (if that is what they are) showing a globe earth are not real.
Compass Directions East & West and Psalm 103:12.
I am thankful for CF poster "Brad B" for this discovery. He said, I quote:
"...God said He would remember our sins no more that they would be taken away as far as the East is to the West. Notice He didn't say North is to South because each of those positions would have an ending on a globe. However the directions of East and West have no ends on a globe." ~ Quote by: Brad B.
This is from Psalms 103, and it says,
"As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us." (Psalms 103:12).
It is true there are no points for an East or West. However, there are points for a North and South. They are called the North and South poles for a reason on our spherical Earth. But on a Flat Earth, South is outward in all directions on a Flat disk. On a Flat Earth: The South is an infinite circle (sort of like a pizza crust) and it does not have any one ending point exactly. Granted, while God's Word is not a Science book, we should see it line up with Scientific truths because God created the Science of our universe. So when the Bible talks about Scientific things like North, South, East, and West, we would expect to see the truth of God's Word support the physical real world we live on in light of the truth of God's Word; And in this case, Psalms 103:12 makes more sense with a spherical Earth than a Flat Earth.
Side Note:
Oh, and I am also not intending Psalms 103:12 to be the one and only verse that refutes a Flat Earth. I believe it is merely one link in a Scriptural chain of evidences (of which I hope glorifies Jesus Christ).
