What if back then things were different?
Flat earth with sun evolving [sic] around it?
This could also explain sun standing still!
For mark; it isnt written that it looked like sun standing still.
It is written that sun indeed stood still!
And as you yourself said; Bible god is not supposed to lie.
Pardon your embarrassment, but... uh... you
can't be serious.
But in case this isn't offered as a joke...
The mass of the Earth and therefore it's gravity + surface tension* precludes it being anything but an almost perfect sphere. Since the Sun has a mass about 330,000 times that of Earth its gigantic gravity results in it being impossible, ever, for the Earth to have been the center of the solar system.

Meant in context to christian religion, this was no more meant to be a joke than gap creationists are joking with gap creationism.

What I find embarassing is the implication that an omnipotent god cant change the solar system and his laws at whim, or cant create an for todays phisic science impossible solar system.
I get it that you think: "Sounds embarassing to me. And surely bible god would never do something that sounds embarassing to me!"
And I think for the same reason christians dont think of this obvious god plot.
But
exactly that is not reasonable.
Let me try to explain again.
1) Christians say: Bible gets everythimg right.
2) But christians have all hands full to rape flat earth and geocentric earth out of bible.
3) Christians try to somehow save face for such lesser problems like sun standing still.
4) But all miracles of the bible and Jesus resurrection and his flying to space is to be believed.
5) There is no reason (other than the fact that people illogically laugh at that) to exclude the possibility that omnipotent god or other mighty magicdoers of bible universe didnt alter the solar system.
6) I cant in think of another way to have a perfect bible that tells the truth
and accept todays solar system.
7) Further: My 5 cents are not on bible god altering solar system, but rather on Satan.
It reeks of Satan to alter a beautyful flat earth with a revolving sun into todays kopernikus hogwash universe.
Then when did Satan do this, you will ask.
We know from Jesus crucifying that the sun stood still, which guaratees geocentrism of course.
According to famous christian artist Jack Chick, Satan was furious about Jesus Sacrifice.
So how much more must Satan have been enraged about the resurrection, the ascension - And Christs flying on a cloud to the Nephites might have been the last straw.
So Satan altered the Solar system while Christ preached to the Nephites.
He altered it, so that humans would distrust the bi le!
