Firmament 9.20.2020
Firmament. The world might not want to admit that there is a strong, solid firmament that houses the sun, moon and stars. Yet, it is what is written.
As it is written, Hast thou with him spread out the sky, strong, as a molten looking glass? Job 37:18. A molten looking glass sounds pretty solid to me and the scripture does mention that it is strong.
There is another scripture to look at, as it is written, And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature was as the colour of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above. Ezekiel 1:22. So the firmament is stretched forth above our heads and the scripture mentions it is as the color of terrible crystal. Well is crystal solid? Yes it is solid.
There is another scripture to look at, as it is written, And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: Genesis 1:14. So the lights are in the firmament. The lights are in the firmament that is strong, as a molten looking glass, as the color of the terrible crystal.
There is another scripture to look at, as it is written, And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: the stars also. Genesis 1:16. The greater light is the sun, the lesser light is the moon and both of these lights are great lights. The stars are also included in the firmament.
Yet, the world will tell you that the moonlight is the reflection of the sunlight. How can that be? Did you know that those two great lights act opposite of each other? Yes, the sunlight is warmer in its light than in its shade. That can be measured. Also the light of the moon is cooler in its light than in its shade. That can also be measured.
If I reflect the light of the sun, it is still warmer in its light than in its shade. So the scripture is right that the sun and the moon are two different lights and they act differently from each other.
Also did you ever notice that we only see one side of the moon? Yet, the world will teach you that the moon is a sphere and it turns. Well, if it is a sphere and it turns, no one has seen that happen. With all of our fancy cameras, no one has made a video of the moon turning so that we can see the dark side of the moon?
The world will teach you that outside of our atmosphere is a vacuum in outer space. Yet how can that be? Would not the vacuum tear our atmosphere apart? I mean can they recreate that in a lab? No, they can not.
You see the firmament also vaults our atmosphere. Outside of the firmament is water. As it is written, Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens. Psalm 148:4. This goes with another scripture, as it is written, And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. Genesis 1:6.
You see there is water below the firmament and there is water above the firmament. As it is written, And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which under the firmament from the waters which above the firmament: and it was so. Genesis 1:7.
Remember the great flood of Noah's time? Where did all that extra water come from to cover every mountain on the flat earth? Remember it was the waters from the fountains of the broken up deep and the openings of the windows of heaven. What was the opening of the windows of heaven? That would be the openings made in the firmament, so that the waters which were above the firmament can join with the waters that were below the firmament along with the fountains of the broken up deep. That is where all the extra waters came from.
This will let you know how strong the firmament is. It is strong enough to hold back enough extra water along with the fountains of the broken up deep to cover every mountain on the flat earth. Can any dam made by man hold back that much water? No. That is why the firmament is strong, as a molten looking glass and is of the color of terrible crystal.
Let's end with a scripture, as it is written, Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down. Isaiah 38:8.
