Discuss the Bible~

[vern]

The old testament is a bunch of Jewish myths. The new testament is a bunch of best-sellers from ancient times compiled by the ancient Christian church.

Hardly the work of God.

The Bible Reveals that the Earth is Round
The Scriptures tell us that the earth is round: "It is he that sits upon the circle of the earth" (Isaiah 40:22). The word translated "circle" here is the Hebrew word chuwg, which is also translated "circuit" or "compass" (depending on the context). That is, it indicates something spherical, rounded, or arched -- not something that is flat or square. The book of Isaiah was written sometime between 740 and 680 B.C. This is at least 300 years before Aristotle suggested, in his book On the Heavens, that the earth might be a sphere. It was another 2,000 years later (at a time when science believed that the earth was flat) that the Scriptures inspired Christopher Columbus to sail around the world.

wa ko ka gets bro dah! di ba gud bro if you are on an open field and when you look around you, mura ka ug naa sa circle and you are at its center?

was he the only one sitting when he said it?
hmmm...he must on a high position, on a tower perhaps, sitting on his chair or throne and gazing on his territorial domain. Then he realized it was like a circle...hehehe

Earth during this time should not be interpreted as the planet earth...it is land/soil/territory.

The Bible is the only book on earth that tells us things that will happen before they happen, many centuries ahead.

(Isaiah 42:9) “Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.”

so can you tell us what will happen on the year 2008?

The Bible and Earth's Free-float in Space
At a time when it was believed that the earth sat on a large animal or a giant (1500 B.C.), the Bible spoke of the earth's free float in space: "He . . . hangs the earth upon nothing" (Job 26:7). Science didn't discover that the earth hangs upon nothing until 1650.

hang? di ba gud if you hang something you need a rope, string to hold it?
the word is hang not float, di ba?

Earth during this time is referring to land, not the planet earth.

The Scriptures Speak of an Invisible Structure
Only in recent years has science discovered that everything we see is composed of things that we cannot see -- invisible atoms. In Hebrews 11:3, written 2,000 years ago, Scripture tells us that the "things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."

he is describing a fortress that looks weak but very difficult to overcome.
In short, know your enemies first before you attack.

The Bible and Radio Waves
God asked Job a very strange question in 1500 B.C. He asked, "Can you send lightnings, that they may go, and say to you, Here we are?" (Job 38:35). This appears to be a scientifically ludicrous statement -- that light can be sent, and then manifest itself in speech. But did you know that all electromagnetic radiation - from radio waves to x-rays - travels at the speed of light? This is why you can have instantaneous wireless communication with someone on the other side of the earth. The fact that light could be sent and then manifest itself in speech wasn?t discovered by science until 1864 (3,300 years later), when "British scientist James Clerk Maxwell suggested that electricity and light waves were two forms of the same thing" (Modern Century Illustrated Encyclopedia).

the word is lightning bro. LIGHTNING.
Lightning is already around during that time.
...and say to you here we are?....Lightning is followed by SOUND.

do not associate lightning with electromagnetic waves, x-rays...lahi ra na sila bro.
aw, well, sa mga ilaronon, parehas ra tingali na para nila.

I'm not a prophet.

Peace!
