Flat or round earth -The final experiment.

[David Lamb]

God.

But God hasn't said that. He said

“The likeness of the firmament above the heads of the living creatures was like the color of an awesome crystal, stretched out over their heads.” (Eze 1:22 NKJV)

(That's about its colour, not its solidity.)

 

[Strong in Him]

You can laugh all you want but it doesn't make it any less true.

Ditto your reactions to earth turning on its own axis or revolving around the sun.
Your answer to such statements have been, "well I can't feel/see it". Your senses tell you that something isn't happening, therefore it isn't - that is not logical.

Not only that but the Bible states that earth is unmovable.

The earth is unmovale, let it sink home,

 

[Strong in Him]

The Bible is not a science textbook and God did not write it to teach the technical details of the universe that he made - let THAT sink in.

God.

Do you want some proofs that the verbal plenary inspiration view is wrong?

When you read something in the Bible, it does not mean God is saying that. Unless God is frequently contradicting Himself, has fallible memory and does all kinds of small errors in speech and writing like humans do. Which would be an absurd belief, of course.

 

[Phil G]

The earth is unmovale, let it sink home,

If the earth is flat, the sun would appear as a point of light at sunrise. It would then get visually bigger as it approaches noon. You have said you observed that the sun is bigger at sunrise than it is at noon.

Now let that sink home…

And now answer as to why your own observation contradicts flat earth..and explain it logically.

Logically.... she will rather answer with some AI generated meme

Or she’ll just divert away from answering because she knows full well she doesn’t have an answer, after supplying an important piece of evidence for the globe earth all by herself!!!

This was not said by God, either. It is a description of Ezekiel. As written down by some anonymous author.

I know you don't believe that the bible's ultimate Author is God Himself, but I and many others here do.

No, really, read the text. It is not ascribed to God, but it is a description by Ezekiel.

When, for example, disciples, Pharisees or Pilate say something in gospels, we also do not say "God said...".

You have misunderstood what I said. Many of us here believe that while the immediate authors of the bible were human beings, God enabled them to write His truth, and so He is the ultimate Author. 2 Timothy 3 indicates this:

“16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (2Ti 3:16-17 NKJV)

I think I understand your view of inspiration, but even with that view, not everything said in the Bible is said by God.

For example:
And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away...
Mt 14:15

If we said "God said: this is a desert place, and the time is now past..." we would misrepresent the text. According to the text, the disciples said that.

Sorry - but he did.

Come on! What is being recorded in Matthew 14:15 is the fact that the disciples said the words, "This is a desert place," etc.) What is recorded in Ezekiel 1 is a vision given to Ezekiel by God:

“1 ¶ Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I [was] among the captives by the River Chebar, that the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God. 2 On the fifth day of the month, which was in the fifth year of King Jehoiachin’s captivity, 3 the word of the LORD came expressly to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the River Chebar; and the hand of the LORD was upon him there.” (Eze 1:1-3 NKJV)

The vision(s) are described as being the word of the Lord to Ezekiel.

No He didn’t. Now answer the question I have asked instead if avoiding it…as usual.

Sorry -What was the question agian ? I've forgotten with all the commotion going on.

I’ve repeated it several times, is your memory really that bad??? It’s even on the this same page. And the only reason for the “commotion” is because you keep avoiding answering anything logically!

But here it is again!!!!

If the earth is flat, the sun would appear as a point of light at sunrise. It would then get visually bigger as it approaches noon. You have said you observed that the sun is bigger at sunrise than it is at noon.

Now let that sink home…

And now answer as to why your own observation contradicts flat earth..and explain it logically.
