Re: Why did God create other planets?

Here at Landover Baptist Church, we only use the one TRUE Bible, the Holy KJV1611 Authorized Version. The "scripture" that you have quoted in your signature is of a false version, which angers God. Kindly remove it, and replace it with the correct version:

Matthew 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. 7:2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

Also please keep in mind that the signature space is allocated for posting Scripture, not demonic messages. There is only one truth(tm), and that is God's Truth(tm).

If you are at all confused about how to tell with certainty which Bible is the TRUE Word of God, please see my sermon on the subject HERE.

And like some people say (including myself), the moon reflects the rays of the sun.

Now would be the time for you to back it up with scripture.

Re: Why did God create other planets?

Sorry for the big image, I didn't realise it was that big

Anyway, the moon is also ALWAYS facing the same part of the moon to the earth. So we should be able to see the same part of the moon where ever we are.

Re: Why did God create other planets?

Ok, how can the moonshine be a reflection of the sun? When it's midnight and the moon is full and shining down on us, do you see a sun around? No. The sun is on the other side of the earth. How can the moon be illuminated by the sun when the earth is blocking it? Think about it.

The moon shines because it is so white. Everything around it is pure black of outer space so it really stands out and that is what causes the glow.

I guess the image is pretty self explainable.

The moon is not really white though, it's more kinda grey-ish (although it seems white ) And like some people say (including myself), the moon reflects the rays of the sun.

Re: Why did God create other planets?

Wrong: The moon has very distinctive features. Can you point out the Sea of Tranquility? the Oceanus Procellarum? Copernicus Crater? Thought not.

No, I can't point them out...and neither can you...since the craters all look the same.

"Sea of Tranquility"? Now I know you're just pulling my leg. There are no seas on the moon! Get back to me when you come up with some real science.

Re: Why did God create other planets?

Then how come you can look at a landmark on the moon's surface, such as a crater, which is fully in light one night, then half-obscured the next? I don't think you've thought this out too well.

Have you thought this out?

The moon's surfaces all look the same. It's just a bunch of craters. How do you even know you are looking at the same crater when they all look alike?

Think of a golf ball: It is peppered with dimples all over the surface. Rotate the golf ball any number of degrees and it still looks the same.

As for my spelling, I just happen to like Received Standard English.

Re: Why did God create other planets?

Good gods. There is no colour without light. What do you think is happening during the moon's phases? Or a new moon? Or a lunar eclipse?

What's an American like you perverting English with that inferior British spelling? What are you some kind of language traitor?

There's a simple explanation for your questions. Now, you have heard of the "dark side of the moon", yes? That Satanist rock group Pink Floyd put out an album called just that, so certainly someone like you is familiar then. Now, there are two sides of the moon: light and dark side. The light side of the moon is all white, the dark side is black.

The phases of the moon are explained by the moon rotating so you can see both the light and dark sides of the moon at the same time. A full moon is when you see all of the light side; a new moon when you see only the dark side. Waxing, waning, gibbous, crescent, those are just intermediary stages of the rotation.

That is science, kid.

[Pastor Billy-Reuben]

Re: Why did God create other planets?

The Bible only talks about the happenings on this planet, Earth. So, why did he make all the other planets? This is a question that I have had on my mind for some time.

Other planets? Do you actually buy into the science fiction notion that those small lights in the sky that God gave us for signs, seasons, days, and years (Gen 1:14) are whole other worlds millions of miles away?

I think you've watched a few too many episodes of Star Wars, friend. Beam me up!

And you disagree? If so, what makes the moon 'shine'?

Re: Why did God create other planets?

I don't know and I don't care. God said it is a light.

And you know that how?

almost 400 years of Landover history and we've never found a church that is anywhere near to teaching the complete Word of God, as Landover does. All the others are just social gathering places where they create gods from selected verses of the Bible to suit the ignorant and gullible.

[Greyhund]

Re: Why did God create other planets?

Atheists and agno-stix, moan that the Moon is not a light in itself but merely reflects the sun.

And you disagree? If so, what makes the moon 'shine'?

Landover Church is the ONLY Church, that accepts and follows the entire Word of God.

And you know that how?

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

Re: Why did God create other planets?

Who said that this was "God's favorite forum"? I don't think that God put that into the Bible.

Landover Church is the ONLY Church, that accepts and follows the entire Word of God. This is what He wanted. What else would you call the revelation of True Christianity?

We know also that we are blessed daily with riches and joys from The Lord.

VERY TRUE!

Besides, the bible is talking about 'lights'. It was never talking about planets, because people didn't know that there were any other planets...

Also; Why are (some) christians getting mad when a scientist says that the moon is reflecting the sun's rays?

This is because of

Ge:1:16: And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

Atheists and agno-stix, moan that the Moon is not a light in itself but merely reflects the sun.
