Is the Earth at the center of the Universe?

Modern science advances many theories concerning the universe. One theory is that there is no center of the universe. Why should we be concerned about this. Because thinking such as this is in conflict with God’s word the bible.

The bible makes clear a different reality of the universe that refutes modern science. We read at Amos 9:4,

He who is building in the heavens his stairs, and his structure over the earth that he founded; he who is calling for the waters of the sea, that he may pour them out upon the surface of the earth—Jehovah is his name.”

Yes, Jehovah created a structure over the earth identified as stairs out of the waters of the sea. God didn’t build a structure of the earth but over the earth. That equates to the center to me. So the earth is at the center of the universe.

Need more confirmation? Job 38:4-6 reads:

Where did you happen to be when I founded the earth? Tell [me], if you do know understanding.  Who set its measurements, in case you know, Or who stretched out upon it the measuring line?  Into what have its socket pedestals been sunk down, Or who laid its cornerstone,

Even more? Reading Isaiah 48:13:

Moreover, my own hand laid the foundation of the earth, and my own right hand extended out the heavens. I am calling to them, that they may keep standing together”,

and Isaiah 51:13, “And that you should forget Jehovah your Maker, the One stretching out the heavens and laying the foundation of the earth, so that you were in dread constantly the whole day long on account of the rage of the one hemming [you] in, as though he was all set to bring [you] to ruin? And where is the rage of the one hemming [you] in?”,

and Isaiah 51:16, “And I shall put my words in your mouth, and with the shadow of my hand I shall certainly cover you, in order to plant the heavens and lay the foundation of the earth and say to Zion, ‘You are my people.”

We also have Zechariah 12:1:

A pronouncement: “The word of Jehovah concerning Israel,” is the utterance of Jehovah, the One who is stretching out [the] heavens and laying the foundation of [the] earth and forming the spirit of man inside him”, and Psalm 104:5, “He has founded the earth upon its established places; It will not be made to totter to time indefinite, or forever.”

The earth has a foundation but the heavens are stretched out over the earth as a cover without any foundation!!
