You are Leigh Johnston. Not Flibble.

Leigh Johnston, I bet you won't read the article. Too much truth
for you to handle.

You always say, "And Satan invented fossils, yes?" like a parroting
child. Well here's a potential answer to your skepticism. But I bet
you won't read it because you don't seek the truth. Do you?

Cluck cluck cluck cluck.

It's complete fiction which is complete insanity if anybody were to believe it.

That is definitely one possibility. The scenario answers many questions. It asserts God's design. It asserts our need for a Savior. It aligns with faith, and with what we see, just without the enemy's false narrative, for that enemy has purposes on Earth which are of deception and harm: to steal, kill, destroy.

You can trust in God. You cannot trust in that enemy. He lies. God does not lie.

Consider these things, Juha. Seek the truth and test the things you know against the narrative. See how many things we've observed with questions today are answered in this scenario.

Remember, the Bible describes that in the beginning God created everything in seven literal days. But even the things He created were not designed for a one-off use. Everything was designed to be part of a system which moves forward from that point forward.

Apple trees were created and they were designed to have seeds within themselves to produce the next generation of trees, and to provide food for the people that would be born.

It's not a stretch to recognize that God initially created everything as the Bible describes, and then there is this cycle which goes on after. It even states in Revelation that John saw a new Heaven and a new Earth, for the first Earth had past away, which is a hint of this scenario.

Revelation 21

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation%2021&version=NIV;KJV

1 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,”for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea.
2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.
3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.
4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”

6 He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life.
7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children.
8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”

The NIV translates it as "sulfur" but the original Greek language uses more words to describe it, which are translated as fire and brimstone:

https://biblehub.com/text/revelation/21-8.htm

Peter talked about the elements being melted with fervent heat:

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2+Peter+3%3A10&version=NIV;kjv

10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in
the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and
the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and
the works that are therein shall be burned up.

I contacted someone who is a Christian and a PhD astrophysicist to get their input on this idea, and they would not respond to me after the initial outreach. I don't know why. Even if they concluded it was as errant as you suggest, Juha, I would've expected a "Go away. You're insane" type response. But nothing.

So, I post it for people to consider.
