  • Before discrediting Biblical Cosmology, consider the following. As Christians, we believe the Bible is the inerrant Word of God (2 Tim 3:16, 2 Peter 1:20-21). As a result, we believe people like Adam and Methuselah lived nearly a millennium (Gen 5:5, Gen 5:27), fallen angels procreated with human women and produced a race of demonic superhuman giants (Gen 6:1-5), a catastrophic flood subsequently engulfed the earth (Gen 7:17-24), and ancient Babylonians built a tower nearly reaching Heaven (Gen 11:1-9).
    Contrary to modern claims that Genesis is a poetic rendering of fables, the Messiah Jesus, the Apostle Peter, and Jude affirmed the stories as valid historical events (Matt 24:37-39, 2 Peter 2:4-6, Jude 1:4-16). Moses also testified that he “wrote down everything the LORD had said” (Ex 24:4) and again Jesus confirms this is true (John 5:46).
    In light of these supernatural beliefs, and many more-Christ’s healings & resurrection, Resurrection of Believers, Millennial Kingdom, New Heaven & Earth-is believing we live on a stationary (1 Chron 16:30) circular (Isa 40:22, Job 38:13-14) landmass covered by a molten glass (Job 37:18) dome (Eze 1:26) known as the “firmament” (Gen 1:6-7) really that big of a stretch? God made us a terrarium, and its existence points us to His existence (Rom 1:20). In fact, the Bible presents us with the Firmament (Gen 1:6) before it introduces us to the promised Messiah (Gen 3:15).
    If we believe the Bible, we believe the earth was created before the sun (Gen 1:10), the sun was set inside the firmament and not 93 million miles away (Gen 1:14-18), the sun geocentrically circuits the earth within the firmament (Ps 19:4-6), and the sun-not earth-stood still in Joshua during the war with the Amorites (Josh 10:13). Moreover, observable science testifies to a small close sun due to the existence of Crepuscular Rays.
    If there is a firmament with waters above it, what are the stars? Job indicates they are angels singing (Job 38:4-7). Before concluding this to be another laughable archaic “poetic” rendering of the cosmos instead of literal scientific fact, look into Sonoluminescence-the emission of light from imploding bubbles in a liquid when excited by sound-popularly named “Star in a Jar.” Sound in water makes stars.
    There’s many other flat earth evidences witnessed by genuine scientific experiments-observable, testable, repeatable, and falsifiable-such as bouancy, density, and mass accounting for everything “gravity” accomplishes, the lack of curvature in geological surveys when earth ought to be curving 8in per mile squared (m² * 8), water always finding level, the unmoving Polaris known as the “North Star”, atmospheric lensing distorting objects at extended distances, and more.
    Which brings me to my primary question in this post, why did God intervene at the Tower of Babel? If wicked men were building a tower into the vacuum of space, where they would simply suffocate and die, why confuse their language and halt the project?
    At Babel, Nimrod and mankind as a whole intended to enter Heaven itself (Gen 11:4)-this Hebrew word “šāmayim” in this verse is the same “Gate of Heaven” in Gen 28:17 and the same “God in Heaven above” in Deut 4:39. God considered their plan to enter Heaven through the Firmament to be possible and took action (Gen 11:6-7). Man continues this nonsense to this day-we’ve launched nuclear weapons at the firmament during Operation Fishbowl (Operation Dominic I, 1962), just to see what would happen, of course.
    The Book of Jasher 9:20-39 affirms this intent to make war in Heaven and sheds light on additional surrounding events. Before discrediting the book, you ought to know that the Book of Enoch is referenced or quoted in Jude 1:4, 1:6, 1:13, 1:14-15, 2 Peter 2:4, 3:13, and John 7:38. Likewise, the Book of Jasher is referenced or quoted in Josh 10:13, 2 Sam 1:18, & 2 Tim 3:8. The Biblical Canon is it’s own discussion we’ll table for now.
    What are we to do with the Tower of Babel built to enter Heaven narrative? A fable or historical event? As for me and my house,
    It’s a historical fact.
    CORRECTION: In the opening statement, I accidentally said "sun made before earth" in Genesis 1, I meant to affirm the earth is made (Gen 1:9-13) before the sun (Gen 1:14-19).

      I believe Isaiah 22 and surrounding prophesies are for now . Verse 15 + Yahuah goes to Shebna to confound his puffed up wisdom , Yah rolls him up , spins him round and hurls him like a ball from a sling into the wide , open plain . Doesn't that sound like Babel , Yahuah came down to Shinar , confounded , babelled their words and understandings and scattered them across the plain .
      Our words are now all confused . That's one of the first things you notice is that people get confused on the definition of things , like a circle . All the definitions of Genesis 1 have been mashed up . Suns can now be stars , stars can be planets , planets can be earths ? . Ups not up , or down , down ? . lefts not left and right is wrong ! ? . They don't know what a straight , level , true path means ! . The leaven of accommodating compromise is so working in to our culture .
      And that is what I got from checking Isa . 22 and Gen . 11 . Like a ripple , bubbling up , we are the generation that is seeing the climax of that babbling confusion . It was Yah that gave them a delusion because they worshiped the sun ,moon and stars . It's total nonsense . Any child can see . It's like the Emperors New Clothes . This current cosmological picture that they hold has only come about in our generation thanks to Hollywood and NASA and the public education system * . SAtAN has been plyed to my mind . Yah has given us the ground if we will but stand on His solid , level , unmoved Word ! . Those that hunger for and love the Truth and come and humble themselves as little children and simply as ask , He will show you ! . It worked for me !
      * Actually I agree with Nietzche in his " Parable Of The Mad Man " it is really the Church that let this in but this another story .
      authority . Let's get the leaven of the Scribes and the Pharisees out of the Body of Messiah . Let;s not drink mixed waters

      Thank you so much Pastor Rich! Wow, such a sermon 👏. Glory to God and thank you for your faithful teaching of Truth. I was wondering about the South Pole and had no clue that common people aren't allowed to go and travel as they wish in Antarctica .I am still trying to visualise how the time zones exist (day in one part of the world and the night in the other) and how the seasons change, but it doesn't matter anymore. I watched your short video a few days ago, thank you for answering my questions. But last two mornings when I still had a lot of confusion regarding this topic the thought that the earth wasn't moving but standing firmly gave so much comfort, all this hype now and when people say that the world is spinning like crazy makes me anxious sometimes cause I find it hard to be still then. But after your short video this idea that the earth is standing in one place, that it is not spinning gives such a comfort to my soul and helps me to be still in His presence
      And another lie of the enemy is uncovered by his servants. This time about bread. I went gluten free just because I had some strange issues eating wheat bread. Gluten free helped a lot.. and there was no gluten bread in Ireland to buy in the shops when I went gluten free. so I stopped eating bread altogether plus there were movements against grains and bread so I thought that actually it was a bad idea to eat bread. But reading the Bible I could see so much written about wheat about bread, Jesus Himself calling Himself the bread of Life. I knew that the Bible was true but every time I tried to go back and eat wheat bread I wouldn't feel great. But about a month ago I listened to one podcast which led me to watch one video on CZcams by bread Becker's called bread the staff of life, it's a long video but very informative etc, it was such a revelation....I understood how the enemy deceived us when the industry started to mill the grains and process them for long shelf life, when all the nutrition was lost. To keep the story short I experimented, milled a bit of wheat and made pancakes from freshly milled flour and I haven't had any bad symptoms. I'm doing it for more than a week and I'm fine.....after years and years being gluten free.
      I'm thanking and praising our God for all the faithful servants who dig for the truth in His Word.

      @@tjjones621 most people use Google Maps or Apple Maps to know what roads to take and beyond that any travel people just get on a plane, train or ship. I recommend you get the book 16 Emergency Landings That Prove Flat Earth. Look at the flight paths of those flights and where they stopped for the emergency and compare it between a Gleason flat earth map and a Mercator projection and see which one makes sense. I have personal experience with a flight from Quatar to the US and the flight went over Greenland. I compared it with the two maps and the Gleason was a straight path and with the Mercator Projection map Greenland was way out of the flight path.

    Isnt it beautiful that all things are centered around the earth and not the sun? Around His creation and His children? The place where His kingdom will reign? That we arent just some ball hurling through space at the mercy of the sun but rather fixed in place and held by His hand, underneath His dome of shelter? ❤ its beautiful

      Amen, very comforting!!
      Psalm 19:4-6
      [4] Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun. [5] It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course. [6] It rises at one end of the heavens and makes its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.

    I was so confused for years because of the heliocentric lies we were taught in school. The Holy Spirit taught me about our biblical earth in 2017, and it changed my life forever, and it strengthened my personal relationship with God. This is what the enemy fears because our biblical earth leads to our creator. Thank you for teaching the truth about our biblical earth 🙏

      @richtidwell I have another testimony I want to share with you. I share it everywhere I can; at church, online, yt channels, podcasts, and even radio shows at times. I share it with believers, and I especially share it with non-believers.
      In 2003, on March 5th, I was in a real bad car crash, and I slammed on into a big tree. When the paramedics got there, they told me I did not have a heartbeat and no vital signs. They said they had to cut to the door off of the car I was in, and the whole time, I did not have any vital signs. The paramedic told me that after they got me out of the car, they put me on a gurney, and they tried to resuscitate me, but nothing worked. So, they put me in the ambulance and headed to the hospital, and they tried to bring me back with CPR, oxygen, and shocking my heart, but nothing worked. They pronounce me DOA on the way to the hospital. They told me that when they got to the hospital, I started breathing, but I never regain consciousness, but I was in a coma for 6 days in the ICU. On the morning of the 6th day, a loud voice woke me up from this coma, and it was Jesus. Jesus told me that he was not ready for me yet and had things for me to do. My parents and family were in the waiting room next to the ICU I was in, and they heard jesus and I having a conversation when I was supposed to be in a coma. My body was also mangled with broken bones, but I healed over time. When I was in the presence of Jesus, I felt an overwhelming presence of love that is undescribable and was not from this earth. I wish everyone in the world knew how much He loves us. Jesus gave me another chance at life, and I am very grateful to Him.

The bible clearly says the earth has corners and ends. Read your bible and stop debating

      ​@@tjjones621His map is the same as yours. Your phones GPS is using the same dataset that the Gleason equidistant azimuthal Polar projection map uses since it's the same data as the Mercator map that Google uses today. The only difference is the mathematical projection using the north pole as it reference.
      If Google decided to use the Polar map for its dataset, your location would still be exactly where it is now. Only the size and shape of the land masses stretch or shrink as they are drawn on a flat map since all data is based on an assumed spherical image of the earth. Your physical location however would be exactly the same on Gleasons Polar projection as it is with Googles Mercator projection.
      Your map IS mathematically and scientifically the same as Gleason's Polar projection flat earth map.
      You put a spotlight on how little you understand how maps work and how Google uses Mercator projection maps to this day for GPS.
      "Google Maps use a Spherical Normal (equatorial) variant of the Mercator projection for its map images. The Mercator map was developed in 1569 by Gerardus Mercator as a navigation tool based on a rectangular grid with parallel lines of latitude and longitude. The Mercator map was designed as an aid to navigators since straight lines on the Mercator projection are loxodromes or rhumb lines - representing lines of constant compass bearing - perfect for 'true' direction." -setcompass

      ​@@tjjones621​​​ No matter how many times I explain this topic to you, you remain confused and repeat yourself so that you can stay in your Cognitive error loop and not have to apply the new information I've given you to resolve the solution.
      I have explained to you many, many times over now exactly what those words from Gleason meant. Perhaps you weren't able to understand the words I wrote? Gleason, just as I am doing now, admitted that ALL authorized published projection maps include the same exact data. They have to or they won't be authorized and published. All of them are based off of the same assumed spherical globe shape of the earth. There are always poles on a globe, so every authorized published projection map will also have to factor in that data as well.
      Whatever errors one of the projection maps have, they all will have and so will the globe since it's where they are all projected from. Trying to correct for certain distortions in one map, will lead to distortions in other areas that weren't distorted before because they ALL have the same data set with only their points of reference and projection being different.
      Meridians and parallels can be curved or straighted, it doesn't matter as long as the data is mathematically balanced out. Longitude and latitude lines will pin point your exact location and show you your position in regards to whatever projection map you are using, because they are ALL mathematically and scientifically equivalent with ONLY their points of projection being changed.
      All authorized published projection maps are as accurate as any other in terms of pinpointing correct longitude and latitude on their projection.

      All glory to God! 🙌 Did you know “planet” has a Biblical Greek root?
      The Greek word “Planáō” is used in Scripture and means “to cause to wander”. Its usage is “I lead astray, deceive, cause to wander”. Planáō is the root of the English term, planet. (src: biblehub.com/str/greek/4105.htm)
      The Greek word "Planétés" is used in Scipture and means “a wanderer”. “(properly), a wandering star… ; (figuratively) a false teacher, operating without moral compass and exploiting other aimless people - i.e. prompting them to also stray from God's circle of safety (sound doctrine).” (src: biblehub.com/str/greek/4107.htm)

      I was raised in a Baptist congregation and believed all the lies they told me... In my teenage years, I turned away from God extremely... When I turned back to Him, I went back to those original beliefs... Then, one day, I saw a video that would forever change my understanding and humble me... This guy said the earth was flat, and the Word of God backed this up... I was angry and set out to pour into scripture to debunk all this guy had said... Only one problem, it turned out that everything this guy had said was true... It was because of this that I started to pour into the scriptures more to see what else I was taught might not be true... I found out that God law was still relevant, as well as the Biblical feast... That keeping the traditional pagan holidays is an offense against Him... As well as many other things... In fact, I'm still learning how I have been deceived by the unbiblical doctrines of men... I thank the Father for opening my eyes and continuing to do so...

    Pastor Rich, I wrote one comment yesterday and today I thought about how did enemy succeeded to deceive not just the world but the church as well in so many very important areas. And this thought came to my mind: church started to live as if this world was our true home, so we became an easy target to the enemy. We must repent ☘️

      How does it make more sense? Nothing works. Not one thing. Not even sunrise and sunset make any sense on any flat Earth model. Counter-rotating stars in the north and south, by themselves, disproves the flat Earth. Believing in a spherical Earth does not prevent you from being a good Christian. Indeed the vast majority of Christians do. If it was actually crucial to believe this it would say so in the bible. It does not.

      @@jonnyweber3311 True, the Earth is not flat and also true that the bible does not _SAY_ that the Earth is flat, but it is definitely written from that point of view. For example when Daniel has his dream he sees a tree growing "in the center of the Earth" that "all can see". This does not make any sense on a globe but fits a flat cosmology fine. Plus stars "falling to Earth" in Revelation shows that there is a misunderstanding of how large the stars are in comparison to Earth. It also says in multiple places that the Earth is "fixed" and/or "immovable". I cut those ancient writers a lot of slack though, because from their human-sensing point of view the Earth LOOKS flat and FEELS motionless. And not having the necessary tools to confirm those things that's what they accepted as truth. But if it was actually important to believe that the Earth was flat, it would say so.

    Absolutely loved the video, Rich! Well done! I've been into this topic for quite a while now, but you managed to teach me even more in this video. In many parts it was like I heard myself talking hahaha. At one point you mentioned that flat earth brings people to Jesus, and I am one of them. I got into flat earth before I became Christian, and the first thing that came to mind, as soon as I realised that the earth is flat, was: so the Bible is true! One of the reasons I didn't believe in Jesus as a teenager was space, dinosaurs and evolution.

      ​@@tjjones621​ You do realize that all the maps we have are equivalent but can be manipulated with different reference points of projection correct? The map that most people are familiar with is The Mercator map. This projection was created by Gerardus Mercator in 1594. It showed meridians as equally spaced lines. The projection is often used for navigational plotting of ship routes.
      The Robinson projection map is also very popular as it was designed with the intent of visualizing the entire world easily. It was created by Arthur H. Robinson in 1963.
      There's also the Gall-Peters Projection, Miller Cylindrical Projection, Mollweide Projection, Goode's Homolosine Equal-area Projection, Sinusoidal Equal-Area Projection and more.
      The Gleason map that is commonly referred to as the flat earth map is mathematically equivalent to the Mercator map, but with a different point of projection. Alexander Gleason's map was created in 1892 and is an equidistant azimuthal Polar projection. It is primarily used to show the north polar region of the Arctic to show the true areas and shapes of countries
      and continents, with very little distortion. This is why the UN can accurately use the image in their logo.
      World Maps are drawn flat but were decided long ago to be depicted as a spherical shape with lines of longitude and latitude used to divide and mark the earth into sections. The fact that Gleasons map is equivalent to mercators map simply by changing the reference point of projection proves it's validity. One could even argue that Gleason's map is the true projection and the other projections were used to manipulate the image into distortions away from God's biblical image.
      The Globe is the image chosen by man, while the Circular polar projection is the image that most closely resembles the image given by God in the Bible. Both are equivalent depending on point of projection. It's not surprising that man would choose the image that doesn't match up with Gods word, even when there is an accurate equivalent. Just as pseudoscience has done with the movement sun.
      Einstein himself admitted that the movement of the earth would never be detected by the scientific method or any experiment. Instead, he chose a belief system based on imagination and called it science. Yet we are taught that the earth is hurling through space as if it were a verified proven fact. It is not. He admits it's just a simple matter of which coordinate sytem you choose.
      "The two sentences, 'the sun is at rest and the Earth moves', or 'the sun moves and the Earth is at rest', would simply mean two different conventions concerning two different Coordinate Systems."
      Albert Einstein(1938). The Evolution of Physics 1942 ed. New York: Simon & Schuster. page 243.
      At every turn, men such as yourself have purposefully chosen coordinate systems, map projections, and various other pseudoscientific ideas that point away from God, even when they are mathematically identical. Hebrew cosmology was no secret to the scholars of the past and there have always been those involved that would be interested in getting as far away from God's word as possible.
      I would recommend you stop trying to pass yourself off as a follower of Christ. Your actions, beliefs, words, and labor are all proofs that you are of His opposite.

    • @moogle_k
      @moogle_k Před 5 měsíci +2

      ​@@tjjones621You are not understanding this topic. Of course you're not going to see the polar projection when you zoom out. It's not the reference projection that google used. I said IF Google decided to base their reference point as the polar projection instead of Mercators, then your physical location right now would be exactly where you are now only represented on Gleasons Polar projection map. Mathematically and scientifically the data is all the same, just the continents sizes and orientation change to account for the reference point.
      The sphere shape of the earth was the assumed shape applied by men such as Mercator who made his money by selling Globes. This assumed shape was then converted to various flat images called projections. He was also able to sell his flat maps as well. Not a bad business model when you're the one cornering the market for both.
      All projection maps have some distortions and lose some data. Depending on the projection used, some continents shrink drastically like Greenland, while others like Africa stay relatively the same size. Mercator focused mostly on the main land continents for navigational purposes.
      You keep bringing up poles, but they weren't that important for most navigation, so he favored depicting continents instead, even if it made some look bigger than they are. Interestingly enough he did also make a map of the magnetic North pole mountain called mount meru or Rupes Nigra aka Black Rock which matches up with the description of the four rivers mentioned in Genesis regarding the Garden of Eden. The Greeks called this area Hyperbora and talked of a species of man that had 1,000 year life spans in a beautiful Garden. Mercator drew this map based on a 14th century navigator who recorded his expedition there for King Edward the 3rd in a book called Inventio Fortunata. Of course Mercator created this map separately and never combined the two.
      As far as the south pole not being present, I'm fine with that because there is no south pole. Just as the northern polar projection accurately depicts, the Bible foretold and Captain Cook recorded. There is only a massive boundary wall that creates the shoreline container for our ocean's.
      You are misunderstanding my comment in regards to physical location where I talk about latitude and longitude differences being insignificant between projections. You seem to be thinking I'm referring to actual continents. I am not. The data points of longitude and latitude will mark the same physical location on every projection map, no matter how different the images themselves all look in regards to continent size between projections.
      For example; latitude 34°03′00.00″ North, and longitude 118°15′00.00″ West will always land on Los Angeles California in the USA. It doesn't matter if the Map Projection used was Mercators, The polar projection, or any other projection, they are mathematically equivalent to each other. I dont care how many times you zoom in and out of your phone, Google in fact uses data from Mercators map for GPS purposes. I've quoted you word for word their statement. The fact that you can't accept it is only a proof of your dishonest nature.
      Since all flat projection maps have different distortions, NONE of them show all the continents as their true size. This is because the forced assumed spherical image of the earth is used BEFORE they are mathematically projected into flat maps.
      It's not a coincidence that when the reference point is placed at the Center of the earth, the image begins to take on the shape of the earth the Bible describes. It's not exact, because its still a projection tied to the forced data points of an asumed man made sphere. All maps are to this day because theu have to be. No map can be published unless they contain this data.
      The real circular earth image encompassed with bounds was known first and it was mathematically altered by forcing the round circle of the earth into a man made sphere. This was done so that when it was projected out into flat maps and given to the common man, no one would recognize Gods biblical description of His creation due to all the distortions.
      Distortions caused by the forced and assumed spherical image of earth would see to it that man could navigate Gods creation, but His handiwork and description of it in His word would be hidden from them.

      ​@@tjjones621​​​ No matter how many times I explain this topic to you, you remain confused and repeat yourself so that you can stay in your Cognitive error loop and not have to apply the new information I've given you to resolve the solution.
      I have explained to you many, many times over now exactly what those words from Gleason meant. Perhaps you weren't able to understand the words I wrote? Gleason, just as I am doing now, admitted that ALL authorized published projection maps include the same exact data. They have to or they won't be authorized and published. All of them are based off of the same assumed spherical globe shape of the earth.
      Whatever errors one of the projection maps have, they all will have and so will the globe since it's where they are all projected from. Trying to correct for certain distortions in one map, will lead to distortions in other areas that weren't distorted before because they ALL have the same data set with only their points of reference and projection being different.
      Meridians and parallels can be curved or straighted, it doesn't matter as long as the data is mathematically balanced out. Longitude and latitude lines will pin point your exact location and show you your position in regards to whatever projection map you are using, because they are ALL mathematically and scientifically equivalent with ONLY their points of projection being changed.
      All authorized published projection maps are as accurate as any other in terms of pinpointing correct longitude and latitude on their projection.

    Thanks Rich. I learned a few things today and enjoyed your sharing. Great to see Christian pastors waking up and actually having the guts to speak out. Also, much esteem to Rob Skiba for his ground-breaking work in this field.
    Just a few points for your consideration:
    1. The stars are in the same place as the sun and moon.
    Gen 1:16 And Elohim made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night, AND THE STARS.
    Gen 1:17 And Elohim set them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth,
    Gen 1:18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And Elohim saw that it was good.
    Unless I have missed a Scriptures, I believe no were does are the stars described as being separate from the other luminaries, within the firmament.
    2. a) The MODERN book of Enoch contradicts the Scriptures. Some examples
    i) The author is taken to the 'hollow's where the souls of the dead are held until judgment (1 Enoch 22)
    The Scriptures tells us that when we die, we sleep, go back to the dust where we await judgment. And that our spirits go back to YHWH.
    YHWH determines where we will go when we are called up before the judgment seat, not before. (1 Thess 4:13-18; Heb 9:27; Ecc 12:7)
    ii) 1 Enoch 39:4-5 speaks again about the resting place of the righteous, but adds that righteous angels intercede and pray for the children of men and alludes that righteousness flows from the angels to the children of men...
    Romans 3:10 tells us that not one is righteous, and if we are to judge the angels (1 Cor 6:3), we can guarantee they are not righteous.
    We are also told that Yahusha (the Son) intercedes on our behalf (Rom 8:34). Angels are never described as praying.
    2. b) The MODERN book of Yasher names France (Franza) and Lombardy (Lumbardi) before the era that they were established. So who 'translated'/wrote them and when?
    Jasher claims that there were 15 plagues in Egypt - not 10 (Jasher 80:2-51 vs Exodus 7-12)
    Jasher claims that the Red Sea was divided into 12 parts, not two (Jasher 81:38 vs Exodus 14:22)
    Bless you brother. May YHWH continue to lead and guide us all.
    Again, thank you. I really enjoyed your word.

    As a realist, I recognize that the ancient writers of the bible wrote what they knew at the time, so if they got some of the details wrong I certainly understand that. After all, when one looks out over the world it LOOKS flat, as it should considering the immense size of the Earth and our close proximity to it surface, so they wrote from that perspective. And it FEELS like it's motionless, again as it should considering that speed cannot be felt: Only acceleration/deceleration can which is why walking around inside an airplane going 500mph is easily done. Nowhere in the bible does it say that the Earth is flat, though it is certainly written from that point of view. But the danger here is that biblical flat Earthers are actually calling attention to this fact and every other method we have to determine - with science and the scientific method we have at our disposal (which did not exist back then) - the shape and characteristics of the Earth point to the fact that it's a rotating oblate spheroid, orbiting the sun at about 93 million miles with a moon orbiting us at around 230,000 miles. In order to accept that the Earth is actually flat and motionless, we have to ignore all the things we have learned with experience and knowledge.
    Also, what is more worthy of God's power? A universe containing hundreds of billions of galaxies, with each galaxy containing hundreds of billions of stars and so VAST that it takes *LIGHT* billions of years to cross it.... Or, a universe so small that light can cross it in a fraction of a second?

    Many years ago when I taught high school sciences including physics I rejected the notion that the earth had a motion that was spinning and orbiting due to it conflicting with the law of centrifugal force. In a home based bible class I did loose some students because of that view. It wasn't until 2015 that I was introduced to the concept of the flat earth via Rob Sciba as I had assumed that the earth was a globe. I truly appreciated your arguments concerning relevance to salvation. I've been hit with that argument more than once and had to sort of tap dance around it. I also totally loved your use of the Terrarium symbology as I always hated the concept of a "flat" earth because it has mts. plains and valleys. It seemed rather stupid to use such an obviously disprovable title to preface the logic of the argument. I said all that to say, that watching this presentation was the best "Father's" day gift I've ever received . Its as if from the Father of Lights Himself. Thank You

      Because your Globe sphere model is a intentional deception. It was the assumed shape assigned by men to hide God's biblical narrative of creation. They mathematically manipulated the circular round earth into spherical ball. When maps were then made for navigational purposes and put back into a flattend form, the original image of the real earth is lost as the distortions hide Gods creation as He described it. That is, until you simply place the frame of reference back at the north pole. God's biblical creation once again starts to take shape from the years of intentional distortions.
      If we undid the mathematical deception of the sphere, there would be no need to have distorted continent projections because the earth is not a globe. All the maps however from Gleason, Mercator, to Google are mathematically and scientifically identical and unfortunately tied to the assumed and forced image of a sphere.

Sadly, last week I was exchanging some messages with him and he told me that he believes that the God of the Bible YHWH is a demon! That is insane and blasphemous! He believes in the Creator but he says that the Creator has not revealed himself to us yet. He believes in re-encarnation. And yet, he says that he celebrates Christmas, but not santa. I told him I don't celebrate santa either but for him, 12/25 is saturnalia, so I asked him if he considers himself a pagan then, since celebrating Christmas means that he either celebrates that Jesus was born, or he celebrates saturnalia. Of course he did not like those questions and did not answer. He says he will not apologize to Christians what he has said about Jesus and YHWH. It is so sad, Jeran is so smart, and yet, he is so blind about the Creator.

There many Believers round him and they too are growing . This is why Rich is so refreshing right now after that debate with Odle and Locke . The Scriptural importance of FE has come to the forefront . Witzit has expressed it so well when he said about what should be the agenda of Truthers . It should apply to all areas of life and that we go where it takes us .
      Jeran has proved he can change and is open to change . We must all keep that attitude while we are still in the flesh . That is the sad thing of so many Christians that just will not change even when Scripture is so clear on somethings . Check " Pharisees " by Rich .

    I have a theory on how they were able to build a tower so high to go into heaven.
    You have to research Giant Trees , petrified and cut, like devil's tower or even bigger like geographical structures like plateaus .
    They had already a giant tree that carved in and just had to build a little more to rich the top.
    This tree is described in the Bible being the tallest of them all . Also a connection to Lucifer.
    ‭‭Ezekiel‬ ‭31:3‭-‬9‬ ‭KJV‬‬
    [3] Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with a shadowing shroud, and of an high stature; and his top was among the thick boughs. [4] The waters made him great, the deep set him up on high with her rivers running round about his plants, and sent out her little rivers unto all the trees of the field. [5] Therefore his height was exalted above all the trees of the field, and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long because of the multitude of waters, when he shot forth. [6] All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under his shadow..... dwelt all great nations. .....[7] Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by great waters. [8] The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chesnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty. [9] I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him.
    So it's fair to say that this giant tree was used by Satan to transform into a giant tower , like a giant skyscraper to reach to heaven Dome\ firmament. It's quite genius actually. People had been coordinated by the devil to do this hard project to reach the firmament.
    Today Satan has a different project that needs a lot of people to do , to build a perfect Robot(Satan's version of Man), and A.I. (satanic version of God) . And people are doing this without question, sadly.

      The Holy Spirit teaches us all things, thank you Lord!

      [26] But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.
      May the Lord Jesus bless you 🙏

    Why do so many pastors ignore the waters above.? I just don’t understand why most gloss through it

    Good thoughts. I was just reflecting on the provision of manna for the Israelites in the wilderness, and the "terrarium" imagery (preferable to snow globe) does induce me to conceive of God causing the sprinkling down of a bread-like substance to feed them daily. Jesus must have known His hearers would recall this explicitly when He taught them to pray for "our daily bread". We are not promised tomorrow's graces today. The extra allotment to be rationed out on the seventh day is the stewardship and discipline he desired them to exercise lest they become complacent and gluttonous and consume it all and go hungry that day when the manna was withheld. The pot of manna reserved is I feel a strong typology pointing towards "True Bread" that comes down and the Virgin mother who would contain that within herself and be the means God would use to take upon himself human nature and become flesh and dwell among us. I am no longer protestant but I was for many years and do appreciate your serious study of scripture regarding cosmology.

    Your sermon has made me think of a couple new “what if’s” regarding the end times. We know God said if they reached into heaven at the Tower of Babel, nothing they imagined would be impossible. Matt 24:15 speaks of the abomination of desolation and Jesus specifically says it was spoken of by Daniel and He emphasizes “let the reader understand”. Daniel says he will seat himself in the temple of God, declaring himself to be God. Yet any temple built is no longer holy to God. In my mind, the temple he is referring to had to be the temple of our bodies, but WHAT IF he attempts to break thru the firmament again and seat himself in the heavenly temple? (Some biblical cosmologists believe the entrance to the throne of God is at the North Pole, but that’s another story).
    When you mentioned the arrows they shot, and the blood that rained down, this mirrors the first trumpet! I never understood why the blood, mixed with the hail at the first trumpet, but if it’s a repeat attempt to strike at God, now it makes sense.
    I believe we’re going to face the tribulation, Satan’s wrath, and he will kill/behead most saints, but those who remain alive will be sheltered from God’s wrath (trumpets and bowls). Much like Noah was sheltered for a year (we endure 6yrs trib, “rest” the 7th year-God’s prophetic pattern), and the Israelites were protected from the plagues when they escaped Egypt, so too will God’s people be protected, those still alive. We will be the only ones left who understand what’s happening, and also understand the celestial/earthly events bc we know we live inside God’s firmament.
    I’d love to see a full sermon on all the events in Revelation that can’t be explained away by most prewrath or posttrib pastors, -even my favorite one Nelson Walters still buys the globe lie.
    Blessing to you and your family sir! Thank you for an excellent presentation!

    Thanks for doing this, greatly appreciate it very wise words.
    I do have a question if you do not mind. Is the firmament now ice or is it still water? I see many have different opinions and i wanted to ask you what you thought. Thank you
    I kind of lean towards the ice dome because in revelation it never speaks of another great flood. Because if it was water the whole earth would be flooded once God breaks the firmament
    I would appreciate your input thank you

      Thanks for asking! We know the firmament is hard like molten glass (Job 37:18). As for its material makeup, I don’t know. One decent theory is frozen liquid oxygen!

    Two things. The fountains mentioned in Genesis 7:11 are what NASA tells us are meteor craters. Rapture means the opposite of what Darby pushed. Instead of Christ silently rescuing believers, he arrives by trumpet of God and those that are taken up are those being judged, and those that are left behind will rule with Jesus forever…

    Rich Tidwell, My question about this theory though very factual is this. Why would The Creator put us in a terrarium world? Reading Genesis,when creating Mankind with this theory sounds as if The Creator put us in a prison or a lab experiment.... Be nice to see you explore this theory also.
