Orientation Under and Above

And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. (Daniel 12:3)

And God said, “Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.” And God made the expanse and separated the waters that were under the expanse from the waters that were above the expanse. And it was so. And God called the expanse Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day.

(Genesis 1:6-8) ESV

The second clue to deducing the creation of gravity is from Genesis 1:6-8. Now for the first time creation has an orientation. This theme continues throughout scripture. Under and above are synonyms for up and down.

Hypothesis 26

Life Began in Zero-G

The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

(Genesis 1:2) ESV

Something really odd happened during the development of what we call mainstream theology. Somewhere along the line the words formless and void have been taken to mean that there was nothing.

The ISS isn’t Zero-G

The heavens were established when the point of a metaphorical compass was set as the place where a gravitational singularity was created. The circle is the location of the firmament.

(Proverbs 8:27) Paraphrased

If Earth is the center of gravity of the observable universe, then the observable universe is in the gravitational field of Earth. The strength of the field is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from Earth.

Deducing Gravity

And God made the expanse and separated the waters that were under the expanse from the waters that were above the expanse. And it was so.

(Genesis 1:7) ESV

Gravity is fundamental to the working out of God’s plan for creation. So how on earth did we manage to deduce that gravity was created on the second day? There are three steps to this logic.

  1. Formless > Formed
  2. Orientation Under and Above
  3. Compass: Focus and Circumference

Combining Scripture With Physics

The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

(Genesis 1:2) ESV

There are three things in Genesis 1:2, besides the the deep, which describe the state of the universe before God said “let light be.” We (that’s me and the Holy spirit) use this to deduce that it was a zero-G environment.
