Graves and Pits

O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

(Psalms 30:3) KJV

We are discussing the repercussions of the fall of man on the physical system of creation. One of the repercussions was the start of radioactive decay. This in turn is the beginning of hell, since the explosive rate of decay, concentrated at the core of the earth, caused the core to melt. This is the beginning of hell. We have now put this in the context of the rest of history with a leisurely stroll through the history of the expansion of hell over the last week or so.

We have built a very strong case for the existence of hell in the center of the earth by relating it to the major physical events in the history of the earth. This has been driven by scripture that describes these events. We start with the creation of gravity on the second day as the foundation of the earth which becomes hell. Scripture provides many clues about the changes to the earth over its history and up to the present day.

Let’s take a look at some of the scripture that describes hell and where it is as a way of confirming what is becoming a highly elaborate hypothesis for the cause of global warming. In its historical context the book of Job is the oldest book of the Bible. Genesis records for us an account of the creation, but it was written by Moses, who was many generations after the life of Job. Job was probably a contemporary of Abraham. It is clear that the people of this time had a clear concept of souls and what happens to them after the death of the body: they go to sheol. So what and where is sheol? The context of the verses below is that God has the power to keep the soul from going to sheol.

He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.

(Job 33:18) KJV

In this passage we are told that the soul can go to “the pit,” and the word in the passage translated as “sword,” is elsewhere rendered as sheol. Essentially this is speaking about the pit of sheol. Pits are holes in the ground, so we are talking about someplace deep in the earth where souls go.

Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.

(Job 33:22) KJV

This time the word “grave,” is a translation of the Hebrew sheol. Graves are holes in the ground, like pits, so once again we are placing sheol deep within the earth.

Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.

(Job 33:24) KJV

Once again a statement of God’s power to save the soul of an individual from going into sheol.

He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.

(Job 33:28) KJV

Here the outcome of the soul going into the pit of sheol is connected with light and darkness. Sheol is darkness.

To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.

(Job 33:30) KJV

Here we see a statement that the Lord is able to bring back a soul from the pit of sheol. There is clearly some nuance of meaning here that may be obscured by the various references to the pit, sword, and grave which are all translations of sheol. It should be obvious that sheol is a dark pit where souls go, but some are saved from it and others are not. Not only that, but it is not always a permanent outcome since souls can be brought back from it. As confusing as this may be it is completely compatible with the Matty’s Paradigm model of the interior of the earth. There is a sheol that you can’t come back from (the pit or molten core), and there is one that you can come back from (the grave or bosom of Abraham). The difference is whether or not you are reconciled to God. If you are saved from the pit you go to the grave.

The Bottomless Pit

Cutaway of planet Earth showing the crust, mantle, great gulf and hell.

And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.

(Revelation 9:1-2) KJV

A gravitational singularity at the center of the Earth stopped time. If time slows down the closer we get to it, then we’ll never get there. It’s a relativistic conundrum, and the center of the Earth has an event horizon.

The Lowest Hell

For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.

(Psalms 86:13) KJV

I am making the case that hell is real but I am also attempting to show that this is the result of natural processes. This means by necessity knowing the end from the beginning and the beginning from the end. The only way to know what the earth may have looked like in the past is by what we can see here in the present. This should be pretty obvious but it seems appropriate to point it out. Yesterday I described the current structure of the earth and related it to scripture, however, technically, this month we are looking at what the Bible says happened immediately after the fall of man. There are actually some steps involved in going from the earth as it was at the fall of man to the earth as it is today, so I will give you a brief synopsis.

I’m trying not to get ahead of myself, but on the other hand It’s probably a good idea to have a grasp of the context. I’m also trying to make my posts shorter than they have been getting, so rather than try to cover the whole sequence in one post, we’ll split it up over the next week of posts.

  1. The 2nd Day
  2. Before the Fall (you are here)
  3. The Cursed Earth
  4. Before Noah’s flood
  5. Noah’s flood
  6. Enduring Noah’s flood
  7. Pangaea
  8. The Time of Peleg
  9. Present day

Today’s image shows a proposed internal structure for the earth at the time when creation is completed and before the fall of man. For each physical feature on the diagram I have links to the posts which discuss how the explanation was deduced.

As you can see from the diagram, there is no hell. Hell was not part of the original created earth.

Out of Course?

How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.
Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.
Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.

(Psalms 82:2-5) KJV

Mainstream science (SciPop) requires you to believe that the Earth orbits the sun and the sun is traveling through space. The Psalmist is warning us that those who want you to believe this are wicked oppressors.

The Lowest Hell

For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.

(Deuteronomy 32:22) KJV

Deuteronomy 32:22 begins the doctrine of the expansion of hell. The foundations of the world is the Earth’s mantle. It’s been set on fire by the heat from hell below, and this is the cause of tectonic activity.

The Pit of Corruption

Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back. For the grave cannot praise thee, death can not celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth.

(Isaiah 38:17-18) King James Version

The lower mantle is a point of no return. There’s a great gulf (outer core) of open space between the mantle and the core. The molten core of the Earth (inner core), referred to as the pit of corruption, is hell.

The Sides of the Pit

Asshur is there and all her company: his graves are about him: all of them slain, fallen by the sword: Whose graves are set in the sides of the pit, and her company is round about her grave: all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which caused terror in the land of the living.

(Ezekiel 32:22-23) KJV

Yesterday we concluded that after death all souls go to the grave. This is one of the ways in which the word sheol is translated. We’ve found that after that there are two possible outcomes:

  1. Those who knew the Lord during their life remain in the mantle,
  2. Those who rejected the Lord descend into the core.

The Lower Parts of the Earth

(Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)

(Ephesians 4:9-10) KJV

After the crucifixion Jesus descended into the lower parts of the Earth. He went there to gather the souls of the Old Testament saints who were awaiting his coming.

The Angel of the Bottomless Pit

And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.

One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.

(Revelation 9:3-12) KJV

Something that doesn’t get discussed very often is this terrifying description of horse-sized armor-plated locusts with scorpion tails that are going to emerge from within the earth when the impact of Wormwood splits the crust open.
