1. Rob had a way of explaining things that made it easy to understand . He always used scripture to confirm things. I can only imagine if Rob had stayed here in this flesh and bones temple A little longer and he would have been overwhelmed by the followers he would have continued gaining . I wish I knew if the seed project will still be fulfilled .

2. If the world is flat why haven’t the edges ever been discovered? In all these years no one has ever walked, driven or sailed off of any edge of the world. Explain that about your ignorant flathead theory? If we’re all living in a flat terrarium explain satellites orbiting the earth? Explain the space station orbiting earth?

   Actual grown men going on and pushing forward this absolute ignorance is shameful and pathetic. Get a life.

3. ***In order to answer the question, "How and when did we come to have a Bible with only 66 books?", the story goes like this…

   1. About 400 AD, is when they first began removing Enoch. This was the time of Augustine and Jerome. Augustine and the clergy decided that the Book of Enoch was not to be trusted because it had angels committing carnal sins and bearing children who were giant. This was decided to be mythology (despite the fact that Genesis and Jude ALSO say this), and the Book of Enoch should no longer to be read in churches. Jubilees, which also corroborates Enoch's book would have been discarded about that time too.

   2. That was also the time when Jerome decided the Bible needed a total revamp into Latin. Jerome believed the Greek Septuagint, which had been the Old Testament of the Christians for 300 plus years should no longer be the standard for the Old Testament. The Jewish Hebrew Scriptures were to be used instead, but since the Scriptures of Judaism did not contain certain books which were in the Greek Septuagint (the books which are sometimes called "The Apocrypha", in our day), those Greek books were to be removed. However, the bishop of Rome told him he had to leave those books in. Jerome reluctantly included just 7 of the books and some of the others he included in an appendix at the back.

   3. In the 1530's Martin Luther decided ALL the books of the "Apocrypha" (the 7 Jerome included within the Latin Old Testament, and the rest that were in the appendix) were "valuable for edification", but were not inspired Scripture and should all be placed in an appendix to the Old Testament before the New Testament. (By this time, the Apocrypha had already been without Enoch for more than 1,000 years).

   4. In 1611, the KJV Bible was published following Luther's pattern. The books of the Apocrypha were not removed from the Bible, but they were placed in an appendix to the Old Testament before the New Testament.

   5. In the early 1800's, just when the Protestant Missionary Movement was exploding, the British Bible Society made the decision to remove the Apocrypha altogether since they were no longer being considered as inspired Scripture anyway. This would create a cheaper and lighter Bible too. Thus, for the first time a "66-book-only Bible" began to become the normal Bible for almost all Protestants in the West, and going forward in their missionary outreaches around the world.

   6. Throughout history, the Church in the East, in its various Orthodox expressions, (Greek, Armenian, Syrian, and Ethiopian) has not followed most of the innovations introduced by Jerome, Luther and the later Protestant movement, (though most but not all had already removed Enoch and Jubilees). Western Christianity, has been characterized by a willingness to innovate and change the Bible, but in the East a more conservative approach has been taken. As such, the Orthodox communions of Christianity taken as a whole preserve a more true picture of the Bible as it was from the earliest times. ~ RI Burns***

   Ethiopia never removed Enoch from the biblical canon. Ethiopia is the only Christian country that was never colonized.

   The number 66 is a Masonic seal that represents their corruption of the Bible. The question is, what is the other 6?

   The Book of Enoch contains more messianic prophecy than the entire Old Testament combined. Why would something so blatantly pointing towards Jesus Christ be removed?

   Here are some things that coincided with the removal of Enoch and other books from the Bible:

   1. COLONIZATION, WHICH IS THE SPREAD OF FREEMASONRY
   2. The development of HELIOCENTRISM

   The book of Enoch contains an entire section called The Astronomical Book which explains the heavens according to Biblical cosmology.

   Here is a passage from Enoch 80:

   5. [And in those days the sun shall be seen and he shall journey in the evening on the extremity of the great chariot in the west] And shall shine more brightly than accords with the order of light.

   6. And many chiefs of the stars shall transgress the order (prescribed). And these shall alter their orbits and tasks, And not appear at the seasons prescribed to them.

   7. And the whole order of the stars shall be concealed from the sinners, And the thoughts of those on the earth shall err concerning them, [And they shall be altered from all their ways], Yea, they shall err and take them to be gods.
   (Deuteronomy 17:3), (Wisdom 13:1-3), (Jeremiah 8:2), (Romans 1:25)

   8. And evil shall be multiplied upon them, And punishment shall come upon them So as to destroy all.’

5. I am not against the flat earth theory. But I now will require the science behind how that all works. How does time differ from place to place? The only thing my mind comes up with is that everything orbits around us.

   I need some kind of explanation. God has always made science consistent to say that it is true, so I need to know, based upon what we know, scientifically, how that all works….
