The Windows of Heaven

In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened.

(Genesis 7:11) ESV

The windows of heaven are described in scripture as physical structures which may be opened or closed. This is possible because the firmament is a sphere of rigid crystal on the edge of space.

The Role of Dark Matter

Indeed My hand has laid the foundation of the earth, And My right hand has stretched out the heavens; When I call to them, They stand up together.

(Isaiah 48:13) NKJV

The first axiom of popular science (SciPop) is there’s a causal relationship between space-time and gravity. It’s embodied in Newton’s law of universal gravitation. It’s wishful thinking, an opportunistic rationalization of circumstantial evidence. Dark matter is the atheist deity assigned to defend this axiom. We need to know why it’s necessary.

The Hawking Effect

O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge—by professing it some have strayed concerning the faith. Grace be with you. Amen.

(1 Timothy 6:20-21) NKJV

One of our favorite books is “A Brief History of Time,” by Stephen Hawking. In this and his other books Hawking expands use of the scientific method as an inductive tool. He opened up the realm of plausibility. In so doing he redefined the term “scientific knowledge.”

One Life to Live

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

(2 Peter 3:9) KJV

God created the Earth’s environment and our physical bodies as a way of giving each soul an opportunity to come to know the truth about God and choose for themselves whether or not they want to have fellowship with him in eternity.

The Story So Far

If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

(James 1:5) KJV

We have taken four scripture-based lines of deductive reasoning to link the concepts of the soul as our consciousness and personality, with the soul as a gravitational singularity.

Rolled Together as a Scroll

And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falleth off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree.

(Isaiah 34:4) KJV

Is the phrase “the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll” flowery poetic language or accurate physics? If the firmament is a rigid sphere of crystal on the edge of space, it’s accurate physics.

Principle VI

The Firmament is on the Edge of Space

Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.

(Psalms 150:1) KJV

We use multiple lines of investigation including scripture, empirical observations, theoretical models, and physical evidence to deduce the presence of a sphere of crystal on the edge of space.
