Age of the Universe - Science moves to a Young Earth

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

James Ussher (4 January 1581 – 21 March 1656) was the Church of Ireland Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland between 1625 and 1656 - thus during the reighn of King James VI himself.

In the book inspired by God and the Bible, "Annalium pars posterior", Ussher calculated the date of the Creation to have been nightfall on 22 October 4004 BC. The universe is currently 6024 years old.

Scientist accepted this until the so-called "Enlightenment" in which Satan power was at its greatest. At this point they started to be misled by atheists. However, with Trump in charge we seem to be moving away from godless "enlightenment" to an era of religious truth. I have no idea how he is doing this - it is a miracle.

And what causes this optimism?

The two reports in "Science Daily":

"New research of oldest light confirms age of the universe" Date: July 15, 2020 Source: Stony Brook University

Summary: New research suggest the universe is about 13.8 billion years old, according to researchers using observations from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) in Chile.

"New approach refines the Hubble's constant and age of universe" Date: July 27, 2020 Source: University of Oregon

Using known distances of 50 galaxies from Earth to refine calculations in Hubble's constant, astronomers estimates the age of the universe at 12.6 billion years.

There is a time when even atheists have to accept God's Truth. It is not easy for them, and so they do it gradually. You will see that in the course of 12 days in July, the age of the universe, according to scientists, has reduced by 1.2 billion years. Yes... you see what they did there? They are reducing the age of the universe by 100,000,000 years per day. Every 10 days, it goes down by 1 billion years.

Today is August 1st, and my calculations show that scientists, as of today believe that the earth is only 12.1 billion years old.

From this we can see that in 121 days from now, Scientists will have found some way to "agree with God without actually saying as much Thus, on Saturday November 30th, there will be a report agreeing with God on the age of the Earth.

In my calculations, that is the same day Covid19 will magically dissapear. Coincidence?

Scientists peering up at the firmament with big telescopes are no more accurate in their predictions than scientists in the days of Fred Flintstone finding scientific information in the entrails of a goat. I never believe anything they say unless I see it myself.

I think that must be the day that True Christians™ will be raptured out, because the age of the Universe will go negative on day 122. Anyone who's left behind is going to have much bigger problems than the China virus.

Pastor Bathfire, as always you are on fire for Jesus. In a short time there will be no disagreement about the age of the earth nor the end times we will experience.

A short message to atheists who might be reading this, you're done.

Re: Age of the Universe - Science moves to a Young Earth

In the book inspired by God and the Bible, "Annalium pars posterior", Ussher calculated the date of the Creation

How often have we heard that Creation as described in Genesis cannot be true unless meanings for days and the types of animals created are altered to agree with some other source having merely human authority? First I was told that "day" simply meant "period of time" which could be anything up to several-hundred-millions- or even billions-of-years in which case (I thought) why not say so? And I'm sure you've heard the responses: O well God was explaining things in terms which His audience already understood.

Really? If the Divinity is only going to explain things everyone already understands, what's the point of the communication? This comes up so often when people are trying to explain away God's perspective that addressing the point immediately on page one of Genesis becomes critical. To do that, an appreciation of what God has explained at other times is helpful, especially considering the types of diminished intellect involved. They will say that God DID in fact explain MANY things His audience couldn't understand.

I Samuel 8:4-21 The elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah and said unto him … make us a king to judge us like all the nations … And Samuel prayed unto the LORD. And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them. According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee. Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.

Here is a prime example of God explaining something the people did not understand. In fact it's even better than that: He is explaining something running counter to all their observations of others living nearby and their analysis of their own experience!

10-18 And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king. And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots. And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots. And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers. And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants. And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants. And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work. He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants. And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.

Quite a lot of stuff there the people not only did not but COULD not understand. They'd never had a king before. And not only couldn't they understand WHAT the king (any king) would do, they had NO WAY of knowing what that meant. Did God therefore explain something completely erroneous to them which they "understood" even though it was wrong? Did He apply special secret meanings to words utterly different from current usage of that word? Did He use a code with the key to be revealed in a thousand years? or two? or three? or require advanced degrees in theology and ancient (in their case future) languages? No. How did the people respond?

19-21 Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us; that we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles. And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the LORD.

Re: Age of the Universe - Science moves to a Young Earth

The Bible has many examples of God explaining things to people which they didn't understand

. . .

Combinations of fabric, which children to kill, creatures suited to agricultural work and in which combinations, whether to work every day of the week and what to do when someone failed to comply, how to react when family members invited you to explore different philosophies and beliefs about the world. But for those suggesting "day-age" interpretations of Genesis or proposing novel meanings for words like "sun" and "fruit tree" or even "water" (which they say never existed before the stars generating oxygen had run through their cycles and exploded) point out that God does indeed explain things people don't understand. And ask them, why should He make an exception for Genesis?

Now back to the date of Creation. It was very easy for me to read The Bible and see who begat whom. In many cases we're even given their ages! It was even possible to make a time line showing who was alive when pivotal events occurred in Genesis 4 - musical instruments, smelting, agriculture, tents. But if the times are out by so gigantic an error (a factor of 5,035,594,059,743 according to the day-age brigade) how could any of it be reliable at all? If Adam was alive when Jabal, Juba and Tubalcain were inventing tents, agriculture, music and smelting he would need to be at least 3,000,000. Was he still alive when Noah was born? Easy to look up and count the generations.

And now even science agrees. If Genesis is false, what's the point of Jesus?

Science wants to make the earth younger because it is obsessed with youth. All of its products are about making people look younger so that they can have sex for a longer period of time.

Science is perverted.

Pastor Bathfire, pardon me for mentioning it, but my children have been brushing up on their Latin so as to improve their Catsick-rebuking skills and want to know. Was this Irishman some sort of homosexualist?

He most certainly was not!

Three points arise:

1. It is a dangerous waste of time teaching any child "Latin" - it opens up the Vatican pornographic archives to the innocent mind of a child.

2. If anyone has anything worth saying, he will say it in American. (In any case, the Catlick "church" spoke Latin precisely so that nobody would understand and Catlicks are invariably unintelligent.)

3. Although the temptation is to rebuke Catlicks, they have already been judged and their punishment is foretold.

Re: Age of the Universe - Science moves to a Young Earth

It just struck me that while astrologists (or whatever they call themselves now) are reducing the age of the universe, over in Rome they're moving in the opposite direction. Next they'll be saying there was no Jesus!
