Bound in Heaven

And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

(Matthew 16:17-19) KJV

I have used part of this passage, verses 17-18, before as the basis for my post Who Wants to Attack Hell With Me? but today I want to focus on verse 19, about binding and loosing.

Principle IX – Gravity is the Law

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

(John 3:16) KJV

This verse takes a significance of cosmic proportions when we consider the role of gravity in creation. It’s not merely referring to the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ on the cross at Calvary. It’s referring to the decision to create the universe.

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.

Axiom IV – The Internal Structure of Earth and Size of the Cosmos are Unknowable

Thus saith the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the LORD.

(Jeremiah 31:37) KJV

Most people think that popular science (SciPop) has measured the cosmos, and that Earth’s internal structure is well known. They also think that it’s all been measured by spacecraft, like Star Trek.

Corollary VI

Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation

Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight, or in measure. Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have: I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt.

(Levitivus 19:35-36) KJV

Earth isn’t just the center of the observable universe, it’s also the gravitational center of the universe. However, we realize that most people are going to have problems with these statements.

Corollary V – Kepler’s Laws

Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The secret which the king hath demanded cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, shew unto the king; But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days.

(Daniel 2:27-28a) KJV

Kepler’s Laws are the weakest point of the theoretical foundation of popular science (SciPop). The weakness is that Kepler’s laws are derived empirically, but they’re applied theoretically.

Axiom III

Earth is the Center of the Observable Universe

The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear.

(Habakkuk 3:11 ) KJV

The fact that Earth is at the center of the observable universe is empirical. The problem is, does anyone know what empirical means? Here are some definitions.

Can Math Prove There’s no Hell?

He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD’S, and he hath set the world upon them.

(1 Samuel 2:8) KJV

If you use circular reasoning to induce a rationalization of the premise that there’s no hell, but there is a hell, and then you code your rationale as math, does hell disappear?

Corollary III – Gravity of Earth

Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?
Tell me, if you have understanding.
Who determined its measurements—surely you know!
Or who stretched the line upon it?
On what were its bases sunk,
or who laid its cornerstone,
when the morning stars sang together
and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

(Job 38:4-7) ESV

Gravity is measured by dropping things. If we accurately time how quickly an object falls to the ground we can get a measure of its acceleration due to gravity. This is denoted by the symbol g.
