    I agree with Mr Faulkner on most things though I am a little concerned with his interpretation of Paul’s usage of ‘third heaven’ as being a concession to the secular cosmologies of its time. Firstly Paul was writing to Christians. Secondly it’s in the New Testament so The Holy Spirit inspired the usage of this distinctive phrase. Moreover this is the same kind of argument that is currently popular with Christian anti-Creationists who dismiss the creation narrative as scientifically inaccurate and written in concession to the incorrect secular cosmology of its first readers

    Job 38:14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal; its features stand out like those of a garment.
    How do you get a spinning ball in outer space out of this verse? When you press clay down as a seal, how does it form a ball or globe??
    Also, when Joshua commanded the Sun and Moon to stand still for a day, how did he get the extra Sun if the Earth was still spinning?
    Job 38:6 What holds up the pillars that support the earth? Who laid the cornerstone of the world? How many NASA photos of Earth from 'space' show pillars attached?

If people don't believe what is said about creation how would they believe anything else written in the word... I believe the word above any so called science. If the word says the sun moon and stars are INSIDE the firmament and they move not the earth, then it's true. Trying to disprove these facts is despicable.

      "Like clay under a seal" does not mean flat but rather it has bumps that have been molded. Like a garment, the final shape is not given, it may be flat, cylindrical or globe-ish. Could the maker of the whole universe have A) a second bright light in the sky or B) move the Sun as we know it or C) stop the Earth spinning without causing a huge disaster? Yes. Which did He use.... I don't know, maybe something I haven't thought of. Pillars? or support? Did the word pillars get inserted because of the "science" of the time? What words exactly were the original text? What do pilings look like? From the original pilings to today's? And what "earth" are they supporting? The earth they are supporting is the surface, not the globe. So these supports would be inside the globe not "under" it. I am not sure which translation you used for 1 Chronicles 16:30, (which is poetry BTW) but anything I read uses "the world" rather than "the earth", Considering the parts of the verse you did not quote, it would seem to be talking about the political world of the time. Referring to the David's power base that God had given him. This is common usage meaning all the people someone knew about. (all the Earth, All the world). Very hard to take any one English translation and extrapolate some grand theory from it. The speaker in the video is pretty careful to call what he says a theory and is saying that so far it makes sense with both scripture and what we can see physically. The main message of Job was that we as people do not really understand the "whole thing". Most honest scientists will generally agree that "the more you know, the more you know you don't know."

And nowhere can you find in the Bible Earth is spinning, moving, wobbling. Joshua commanded the Sun, Moon to stand still, why not command Earth to stand still? Seems to me this is pretty clear that everything above is moving around, a stationary Earth plane, and how would Joshua get that extra" sunlight" to fight the battle if he had commanded the Sun n Moon to stand still yet "Earth" was still spinning?

    [Wow, this comment section is more of a mess than usual for this channel.]
    I'm fairly happy with the scriptural interpretation to end up with "waters above" meaning there's water beyond the edge of the universe. I'm just not sure that the expected absorption/emission artifacts from that water actually show up in the CMB. Everywhere I look, the claim is that the CMB is a perfectly smooth black-body spectrum. Although, there is a _strong_ incentive/assumption that it is so. I wouldn't be surprised that the cleanup process washes out any features as anomalies. Dr. Faulkner also claims that it might be in a part of the spectrum we haven't probed yet. As I can't even _find_ anything other than a perfectly smooth illustration of the spectrum, I have no clue where the actual limits of the sampling are, or whether there could be emission/absorption artifacts that get smoothed out in the usual processing.
    If this theory is true (or at least closer to the truth), then the Hubble relation combined with the upper and lower bounds of liquid water temperature should give us an estimate of the distance to the edge of the universe, no? And any variation of the redshift and water features of the spectrum could tell us how far we are from the edge in certain directions, allowing us to find the "center". It's a fascinating conjecture, I'm just a bit skeptical about the necessary predictions as they seem rather outrageous given the current data.
    Anybody know someplace I can find raw (or mostly unprocessed?) CMB data? I'd like to investigate this.

    Amazing lecture. Some points:
    1. One time the speaker critics the greek formation of Paul, other time he argues that the Bible says or not something about pre-flood rain. Once the Epistles are in the Bible, so Paul and Moses were guided by the Holy Spirit. Or you embrace everything or not.
    2. I'm tired to see evangelic brothers blame the greeks for everything. Once Pythagoras had most of his instructions with the Hebrews, the Cosmology of Plato, Aristotle, etc. is the same that we have nowadays, at least in the core.

    OK, I have been enjoying this lecture, but I have one major beef; when he said the Bible didn't really say it had not rained before the flood. Wrong; it's right there in Chapter 2, verses 5 & 6. From verse 5; for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. (6) But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
    It plainly states it right there. I don't know how he could make such a statement. I really hope he corrects it (at 30 mark right now), if he does I'll post a correction.

    • @timh.6872
      @timh.6872 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I was somewhat confused by that assertion as well. The only way I can make sense of it is that the passage doesn't explicitly prohibit rain _after_ the creation of man. The claims that God had not sent rain and that the ground was watered by mist are a parenthetical phrase: "When no bush of the field was yet in the land and no small plant of the field had yet sprung up -- [above note about rain and mist] -- then the Lord God formed the man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature". The comment about the lack of rain is a sidenote, seemingly in order to explain the lack of crops when man was created. Given that the next verse is God planting the garden of Eden, and a few verses later the garden is explicitly watered by a massive river, the crucial role of irrigation of some type to produce the edible plants is emphasized.
      As it's a parenthetical clause, giving reason for the state of the world on day 6, perhaps it's a bit of a stretch to insist that it describes the state of Earth for the 1500 or so years until the flood?
      Also, how long would it take for the water cycle to produce rain after day 2? God just separated the waters below from the waters above. To get rain, we need to start getting water back into the near side of the expanse as vapor, condensing to produce clouds, and enough cloud and dust buildup to trigger precipitation over the land. That could take a few days, so God might have been keeping the day 3 plants happy and healthy with a daily mist until the atmosphere He designed started operating at full capacity and took care of worldwide irrigation. It's speculation, and it'd take some work to confirm, but on the face it doesn't seem unreasonable to me, though I'm no meteorolgist.

Both have their reflections in the Hebrew text, and I've not yet heard a good reason that we must choose between the two concepts. The atmosphere of earth would bound the micro-expanse---the limits of the known universe which contain the heavenly bodies would bound the macro-expanse. QED.

    The beginning is before the first day, so by the first day all the celestial bodies existed. The darkness was on rhe sea floor not the sea surface. In the first three days a smooth with water covering it transformed into an earth with continents and ocean basins causing dry land to appear.
    As the ocean basins were opening up the elevated place of the continents were in the midst of the water. Then finally after dry land appeared the continents divided the fresh water from the salt water.
    The then there was light was when the oceans which covered the continents became shallow enough for the preexisting sun to break through. Sometimes things that are lists are interpreted as sequences.
    The fourth day is a day that the purpose and authorship of the celestial bodies was announced, not the day they were created and placed. And it was so is not and then it became so. Therfore the Bible cannot run up against any time periods established by isotope ratios or the time required for light to come from the edge of the universe.

    I think this is tenth time I have watched this, or something like that.
    KJV - "Gen 1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."
    First God calls there to be light. (light is matter/energy ) and then God divides light from darkness ( darkness is the absence of matter / energy ). Light is day and darkness is night ( he starts time on the first day with the evening and morning )
    At this point light and darkness are in the midst of the waters. God divides the waters to create a firmament called Heaven ( an expanse or space ) This is the space needed for the universe to begin along with the medium and the rules for creation, in my opinion.
    We find balance in the God's creation. For a universe to be built, building blocks need to be made, light. I can only assume what the dividing is but it seems to follow Newton's wonderful observation in that for every action there is an equal and or opposite reaction. God seems to be setting the pattern of the physical relationships that we observe at every level in this moment. ( Yin and Yang - seems the most descript ) God creates time with the division and sets the pattern.
    I do not truly understand the importance of water to the Lord. It is the power of the Blood, and it surrounds everything. It was divided at the beginning to create Heaven. Water is so vastly important and I know there is no way for me to properly describe this but in so many ways we are all connected in water right now. Why is that and what does it mean? I don't know yet and maybe I am not supposed to know. It just feels important.
    I find it so hard to try and fit the world's ideas in the God's words. This explanation makes the most sense to me and fortunately it appears to follow scripture, maybe.

    Flavius Josephus aka Matityahu Ben Yosef the Jewish historian says that the firmament was comparable to crystal. No doubt the ancients believed in a geocentric system.
    Also interesting point is that the word in Hebrew for water is mayeem. It is also a plural with no singular form and the word for heaven came from the word water. Mayeem: waters, water. Shamayeem: heavens, heaven.
    Nasa is a sketchy organization to say the least but even man must do his own research. We must never laugh at geocentric believers because we never know, someday in the future we may find out that we have been mislead.
    Water always takes the path of least resistance and always finds its level. Hence sea level. It's interesting to go against the grain and see how people are holding onto spheres.
    Isaiah says in chapter 40 that the earth he saw in his vision was a hhug: circle..later in chapter he uses the Hebrew word for globe,
    durr: Sphere.
    Modern day Jews call it Kadurah which literally means: as a sphere, ball. This is a modern adaption of terminology.
    There are lots of this in the bible that don't line up with the copernican model. It's very suspect that everything copernicus theorized, nasa confirmed. I think I will stay very open minded on this topic and not be dogmatic because one day we may be finding new facts the just happen to be old.
    Deducing from the word of God is missing the point of its purpose.

      Heliocentrism is a complete fraud; the same goes for it's first faked proof: Bradley's explanation for the star's aberration; it cannot be the yearly motion of the Earth around the Sun because it is 3 months late and the small axis dissipears at the ecliptic. It proves that it is a (solar) yearly motion of the universe around the Earth and that the light from the stars comes to Earth in 3 months ... not millions of years.
      But worse, if the Earth was orbiting the Sun with an axis of about 23.4 degrees, it would be impossible for two observers on the same longitudinal meridian to observe simultaneously the passage of the Sun at the same time every day of the year. For example, an observer at Gdansk, Poland can observe the passage of the Sun almost simultaneously with an observer at the Cap, South Africa, everyday of the year.

Please feel free to verify that fact at your leisure. Furthermore, a study of Isaiah in the Greek manuscripts also shows that Isaiah was not describing a ball shaped earth. While we're on this subject, the scriptures state multiple times that the earth is "fixed and immovable". Does spinning and hurtling through space sound remotely as "fixed and immovable" to you?
      Or how about Job where it says "the earth takes shape as clay to the seal", go look at some clay or wax seals and see if any of them look anything like a globe. (spoiler alert - they don't).

      False, the light we observe from stars is only 3 months old, not millions or billions years old. This can be verified by the true geocentric explanation of the aberration of stars. The yearly motions of the stars describing an almost circle at the north star, becoming an ellipse with its smaller axis going smaller and smaller when the star is closer to the ecliptic and the small axis is nul when the star is on the ecliptic. And the full yearly motion of the eclipse reaches Earth in about 3 months, no matter which star you pick.

    Genesis states that God created "the stars" during "creation week". But it doesnt really delve any deeper than that on the matter. There are many times when the Bible states things that can be easily misconstrued and/or uses expressions to illustrate a point, I believe this may be one of those circumstances. WHY could the description of God creating "the stars" not simply be a reference to the other planets in OUR solar system???? They ARE in fact stars to us! And if that is the case, it immediately solves the mystery of how stars can exist many millions of light years away. Personally I think it is the epitome of arrogance to think that WE are the center of the Universe. Besides, if it took God a week to create our world, wouldn't it stand to reason that the rest of the entire UNIVERSE may take him just a little longer than a single day?? We are clearly insects in the grand scheme of things. I don't know about 13.8 billion years, although I do know that secularists are often wrong about many things. But I do NOT have a problem with considering that God himself has been around far longer than OUR world has. Yes the Bible indicates that OUR WORLD is roughly 6000 years old. Im fine with that. But give God a little more credit, I am convinced that HE has been around creating worlds far longer than that. And the stars in the sky testify to it.
