Monday Creation Science – Flat Earth

Oh boy, just typing that title made me a little frustrated. Unfortunately, dear ones, this is a topic we need to address. No one does a better job than Astrophysicist Dr. Jason Lisle. I linked his video below, I strongly encourage everyone to watch it more than once. This isn’t the most important issue we’ve ever discussed on Monday, however it does carry with it some disheartening consequences. Obviously we know, as history has pointedly shown, the church did not come up with the idea of a flat earth. The myth still consistently repeated by atheists is that the church created and forced flat earth on science. It’s simply not true, however today there are some professing believers who are perpetuating this falsehood. This does two things, one it calls brothers and sisters in Christ who have been to space liars. And second, it casts shades of doubt on the Gospel. Why? Mostly because those who believe in a flat earth are far more concerned about creating converts to their belief rather than to Christ. They’re using twisted scriptures to do so.

There’s not much more I can add to the remarkable job Dr. Lisle does below, so this will be a short and sweet post. I hope this video is edifying to you all, beloved brethren. Deal gently with those who hold to this opinion, remember our goal is ever to give God glory, and to enjoy Him forever. Be patient, and kind, when explaining this to others, as in such a way we shine Gods light and love on the lost. As always, my dear friends, be good Berean’s and study to show yourselves approved.

      1. Thank you, brother, I’m very glad to hear it! I love the deBunked clips, but for some reason they were removed from YouTube in the format that I had used in the Noah’s Ark series so I was updating that and got it all mixed up. I honestly hated to even post about Flat Earthism but figured it needed to at least be addressed. It’s like a little annoyance that won’t go away.

      2. I had no idea that there was anyone trying to suggest the planets revolves around the earth! That’s fascinating! I’m going to have to go and read his reasoning. It does seem to have the same flavor as the flat earth idea. There are some wild conspiracies on the internet!

    1. They are very passionate, and aggressive, for sure! Not just online, but in person too which is pretty unique. I think there are some ‘christians’ who get caught up in it due to the push back against science. Rather then taking the Creationist approach they just call all science evil. From there you can make scientists the bad guys lying about the shape of the earth. It’s nearly ten percent of our population these days that believe in Flat Earthism! That’s a lot of confusion.

      1. I remember my first year in college going to the philosophy club and one time they invited the flat earth society to make their case. They are passionate! Its crazy how they become popular
