Job 26:7- speaks of in the northern heavens there is a vast space in which the most powerful telescopes have been unable to locate any celestial bodies. in every other direction stars can be found but not there. it also says he hangs the earth upon nothing, which is it speaking of the fact that the earth is floating in space not supported by anything.
Isaiah 40:22- says the earth is round and that the universe is expanding. he "streatches the heavens."
Luke 17:24-36- Jesus speaks of his second coming. He points out that for some His return would be during the day and for others it would be at night. this establishes that the earth is round and there is day on one side of the earth and night on the other.
Rap outfit the Coup designed a CD cover that depicted the twin towers being blown to bits only days before September 11th, 2001. Wold you say that is so stunningly (and painfully) accurate, therefore they must be Gods?
