Amazing Science book, Bible (Gen 2:10-14)
10 Now a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it parted and became four riverheads. 11 The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one which skirts the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold. 12 And the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and the onyx stone are there. 13 The name of the second river is Gihon; it is the one which goes around the whole land of Cush. 14 The name of the third river is Hiddekel;[b] it is the one which goes toward the east of Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates.
Bible is not science book, but it has more amazing book. There are contents that no human can record. Especially, most of The Old testament was made 2,500 years ago, and Pentateuch was made 3400 years ago. (Like this Bible has such history that even science can back it up.)
Body)
A) Mystery of the universe and the earth that The Old Testament bible
1. I will share Mystery of the universe and the earth first.
Earth is circular. People believed earth had flat surface, and end of earth was where sea falls and end of it was terrifying cliff. People were afraid of sailing far due to that reason.
In western country in B.C.532 Genius scholar Pythagoras claimed that earth is a sphere, but fact was proved in 15th centuries by Columbus and Magellan’s Adventure.
In year of 1543 Poland’s Astronomer and priest Nicolous Co-pernicus were afraid of Catholic’s persecution he could not announce that earth is sphere and it’s spinning. This was found after his death in his journal.
However, in book of Isaiah 40:22 in B.C 700 it already recorded that earth is in sphere.
22 It is He who sits above the sphere of the earth,
And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers,
Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain,
And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.
In here it says “It is He who sits above the sphere of the earth” this means God who sits on sphere of the earth.
B) Fact that earth is located in bottom of north space.
In the past people thought earth was on
something, but in B.C 600 in book of Job 26:7 says 7 He stretches out the
north over empty space;
He hangs the earth on nothing.
In book of Job early part it says
. |
He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing. This means space in north. |
In Chemical and Engineering News year of 1981 they discovered that there was galaxy that has empty space could fill anything in.
C) Live layer that protects earth.
In bible verse
Isaiah 40:22 says Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain,’
Psalm
19:4: Their line[a] has gone out through all the earth,
And their words to the end of the world.
Psalm
104:2: Who cover Yourself with light as with a garment,
Who stretch out the heavens like a curtain.
We also know that scientists discovered that there is Ozone layer protects earth from sun’s UV light. Isn’t this amazing? Psalm was written in B.C 1000.
D) There is fire inside of the land.
Job 28:5)= 5 As for the earth, from it comes bread,
But underneath it is turned up as by fire;
B.C 600 Job already said underneath of this land there is fire.
This fact was proven in year of 1953 by scientist Lehman and the structure of earth is in 4 stages of Rock layer and mantle layer, outer core, inner core.
Earth curst is surrounding external earth it has thickness of 30km. Earth curst is light in weight, but hard rock layer and the temperature consist in 4,000∼5,000 ℃.
Approximately 2,600 years ago, when there was no knowledge or tools to figure structure of earth is definitely not human’s ability.
E) Persian’s secret of Oil –Eden fall into underground.
2600 years ago there was record of Ezekiel 31:15-18 says 15 “Thus says the Lord God: ‘In the day when it went down to hell, I caused mourning. I covered the deep because of it. I restrained its rivers, and the great waters were held back. I caused Lebanon to mourn for it, and all the trees of the field wilted because of it. 16 I made the nations shake at the sound of its fall, when I cast it down to hell together with those who descend into the Pit; and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, were comforted in the depths of the earth. 17 They also went down to hell with it, with those slain by the sword; and those who were its strong arm dwelt in its shadows among the nations.
18 ‘To which of the trees in Eden will you then be likened in glory and greatness? Yet you shall be brought down with the trees of Eden to the depths of the earth; you shall lie in the midst of the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude,’ says the Lord God.”
This means God in old days put Eden in deep sea and underground.
Today’s 70% of oil is extracting from Persian and Saudi area, and oil creates from dead creature needs to process through high temperature and pressure over time.
F) Discovery of rivers that were in Eden
Genesis 2:8 8 The Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed. Genesis 2:10-14 says, 10 Now a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it parted and became four riverheads. 11 The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one which skirts the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold. 12 And the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and the onyx stone are there. 13 The name of the second river is Gihon; it is the one which goes around the whole land of Cush. 14 The name of the third river is Hiddekel;[b] it is the one which goes toward the east of Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates.
However, today river Hiddekel and Euphrates are exist in Iraq’s map, but two other river Pishon and Gavilah were gone, so there are people saying Eden is just mystery. However in U.S discovered Giant River that was covered underground and the age of it is approximately 6000 years old.
There was research for underground’s structure and underneath Sahara desert they have found river and it was leading to Saudi Arabia east and west. This is Pishon River.
There is theory that Persia gulf’s north region was filled with mountains, but after earthquake and volcano action land has gone down and river started to flow back award. First human civilization Sumerian civilization was in Persia gulf, so things quite make sense.
Conclusion)
I’d like to close this sermon by showing some maps and news. I hope we all achieve victory with faith of God.
