They believed in a universe with the Earth at the centre because the scriptures said that. At the start the Earth was the universe, and the sky was only a part of it. They had no reason to disbelieve the geocentric theory until adequate proof came that the Sun is at the centre, after Kepler's work on planetary observations and Newton's theoretical discoveries.
