So if God tells us the Earth is fixed, then in some way it is. It may not have a nail through the center into a board, and it may not have glue smeared on the bottom, but in some way that God wanted us to realize, it's fixed.
Yep, it's "fixed" in the sense that it's a crooked game, not suitable for betting, similar to professional wrestling or major league baseball.
Example 1:
Exodus 7:3-5 writes:
And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
But Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you, that I may lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth mine armies, [and] my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.
And the Egyptians shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.
Example 2:
John 13:26,27 writes:
Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped [it]. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave [it] to Judas Iscariot, [the son] of Simon.
And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.
Whose body and blood was that, then? You don't know, because Rule #3 prohibits telling you. But God breaks all his own rules at least once.
Example 3a:
Second Samuel 24:1 writes:
And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah.
Example 3b:
First Chronicles 21:1 writes:
And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.
