Flat Earth Theory

[CrowCross]

Your statement says all that i needed to know about your biblical understanding.

I'm sure it does.

 

[RandyDawson]

Born into a Christian family and a believer/saved for a very long time and continuing on a never ending learning curve.

Based on what you believe the Bible teaches regarding a flat earth can you explain why :-
The equator regions have equal 12 hr days/nights every day of the year
YET
The Artic/Antarctica regions have weeks of continuous night/day druing Jun/Jul & Dec/Jan

Ps If not gravity then what causes an item to fall to the ground ?

Dude you are wasting your time. These flat earth no gravity people are reprobate!

Hey Randy, I agree that there is very little chance that a flat earther will WHILE IN THE FLESH believe the earth is a sphere yet fortunately for everyone correct earth shape belief is not a Heaven entry condition

That belief does reveal the lack of the operation of the Holy Spirit in a person's life.

Only those led by the the Holy Spirit are the sons of God and we know the Holy Spirit is not leading anybody to go out and share "the good news the earth if flat and gravity is fake" to the masses.

Jesus and the apostles never said "go teach them the earth is flat and gravity is a figment of their imagination"
When I first found out people believed this garbage I thought they were punking everyone. Turns out they are the ones being punked by satan.

Neither do I see flat earth in the bIble

Are you aware of any verses that teach a flat earther can not enter Heaven even if they trust only in the death, burial, resurrection of Christ for forgiveness of their sins ?

I've heard stories of people who have had near death experiences...went to heaven....and on the way saw a globe earth.

Way to try and legitimize being bat poo crazy!
Enjoy this foolishness while you can because this sort of thing won't be found in the Lord's Kingdom.

I believe the earth is a ball but I haven't seen any verses that teach a flat earther will be kept out of Heaven simply because they believe the earth is flat

Indeed. I can't think of anywhere in the Bible where sinners are told that what they believe about things like the shape of the earth and gravity determine whether or not they are saved.

Yet according to you and @RandyDawson and @Dryhn, True Earthers are:
"reprobate"
"their mind is IN THE FLESH"
"stupid"

Thank GOD for His WORD which never lies = Genesis

FYI - JESUS always points us back to Genesis for the Answers!!!

You're trying to be cute and beating around the bush.....For some reason you elect not to mention Jesus.
You appear very cult like.

Take note of how selective your mind is, @CrowCross. You have a veil over your mind that prevents you from retaining truth. You accuse @David in NJ of not mentioning Jesus in relation to salvation, when he has mentioned Jesus Christ over and over. So you take one single post and make your accusation? Take all of his posts and you'll have context.

Born into a RCC family = taught about Christ thru traditional catholic school, Christmas & Easter

BORN AGAIN at the age of 23 by the Spirit of GOD when i Truly Heard the Gospel and asked the LORD Jesus Christ for Forgiveness and to be SAVED by His BLOOD.

Immediately began reading, eating, praying and growing from the Holy Spirit thru the Holy Scriptures.
Directed by the Holy Spirit to attend different churches to be in fellowship and to learn & compare what the churches taught to what GOD Says in His Word.

My heart prayer was & is to only believe what is Truth according to My Heavenly FATHER's Word = 40yr Glorious Quest Continues

The Artic/Antartic Regions, created by God, are governed by the God Commanded Course of the sun over the earth.

Then God said, “Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years; 15and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth”; and it was so. 16Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. 17God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, 18and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19So the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

Your next is to is to bring everything you believe to be true/truth to the Feet of the LORD Jesus Christ.

Who, in the Bible, did just that whereby his mind was Renewed?

The FIRST Step towards Salvation is this:

"For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness."

Obviously, in context, David's last comment is saying that we MUST believe God in order to be saved. Jesus IS God. He is the Son, the Word that was sent out from God and made flesh. He is the spotless Lamb whose blood was shed for our sins. Abraham was shown this, and He believed God. We are the children of Abraham by faith in Jesus Christ.

Of course, believing God expands into everything He has said in His Word. We should always believe God over man.

He didn't mention Jesus in his means of salvation.

Perhaps you would tell us how to get saved? Wanna give it a try? Save the globers?

I have never called anybody "reprobate", or "stupid" or said that their mind is in the flesh. I think you must have me confused with another poster.

IF you give a 'thumbs up' to their mocking & condemning, then you are in agreement with that which God does not approve.

Consider the words of Christ:
Woe to you when all(majority) of men speak well of you,
For so did their fathers to the false prophets.
and
Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake.
Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

 

[TLHKAJ]

He didn't mention Jesus in his means of salvation.

YES, he most certainly did. Read his posts which I quoted and put in bold the places he mentions "the Lord Jesus Christ." Where is your head at???

 

[TLHKAJ]

I've shared my testimony in many places on this forum. This is one post where I shared my salvation testimony.

The date I came to Christ was January 12, 1986. I was 13 years old.

Limited atonement is a false gospel

I would ask you, what is Spirit saying to you in this relationship? The great truth is that the Spirit doesn't have to inform you of what He is going to do in this situation. He will just go about God's business and get it done. This we can be sure of. I will answer for me, the Holy Spirit is...

With all due respect..I asked him twice....and ext response didn't include Jesus.

One has to wonder why.

In that case, I do apologise. I hadn't realised that reacting with a thumbs-up emoji meant that I agreed with everything in the post. Maybe that was naive of me. I will try to be more careful in future with this matter. I would just assure you that though I may disagree with some other posters, I would never knowingly call them names, suggest they were not saved, or anything of that nature. Sorry for giving you that impression by using the thumbs-up.

What are your thoughts on the idea the earth isn't a globe, but instead more of a flat plane?

My dad is a pilot. He's literally flown East all the way around the world. It's not flat. Any "theory" that the earth isn't round(ish) is demonstrably, objectively false and shouldn't be even considered by any thinking person.

 

[RandyDawson]

Thank GOD for His WORD which never lies = Genesis

Takes scripture twisting to try and make it appear as though the Lord said the earth is flat in the Book of Genesis
Takes lots and lots of stretching.

And in what Book of the Bible did the Lord allegedly say gravity is just a figment of people's imagination?
