Cause of Sunrise and Sunset

Posted on December 18, 2020 by revealed4you

sun earth distance  ALTHOUGH the sun is at all times above the earth’s surface, it appears in the morning to ascend from the north-east to the noonday position, and thence to descend and disappear, or set, in the north-west. This phenomenon arises from the operation of a simple and everywhere visible law of perspective. A flock of birds, when passing over a flat or marshy country, always appears to descend is it recedes; and if the flock is extensive, the first bird appears lower or nearer to the horizon than the last, although they are at the same actual altitude above the earth immediately beneath them. When a balloon sails away from an observer, without increasing or decreasing its altitude, it appears to gradually approach the horizon. In a long row of lamps, the second–supposing the observer to stand at the beginning of the series—will appear lower than the first; the third lower than the .second; and so on to the end of the row; the farthest away always appearing the lowest, although each one has the same altitude; and if such a straight line of lamps could be continued far enough, the lights would at length descend, apparently, to the horizon, or to a level with the eye of the observer, as shown in the following diagram, fig. 63.

cause-of-sunrise-1

FIG. 63.

Let A, B, represent the altitude throughout of a long row of lamps, standing on the horizontal ground E, D; and C, H, the line of sight of an observer at C. The ordinary principles of perspective will cause an apparent rising of the ground E, D, to the eye-line C, H, meeting it at H; and an apparent descent of each subsequent lamp, from A, to H, towards the same eye-line, also meeting at H. The point H, is the horizon, or the true “vanishing point,” at which the last visible lamp, although it has really the altitude D, B, will disappear.

Bearing in mind the above phenomena it will easily be seen how the sun, although always above and parallel to the earth’s surface, must appear to ascend from the morning horizon to the noonday or meridian position; and thence to descend to the evening horizon.

In the diagram, fig. 64, let the line E, D, represent the

cause-of-sunrise-2

FIG. 64.

surface of the earth; H, H, the morning and evening horizon; and A, S, B, a portion of the true path of the sun. An observer at 0, looking to the east, will first see the sun in the morning, not at A, its true position, but in its apparent position, H, just emerging from the “vanishing point,” or the morning horizon. At nine o’clock, the sun will have the apparent position, 1, gradually appearing to ascend the line H, 1, S; the point S, being the meridian or noonday position. From S, the sun will be seen to gradually descend the line S, 2, H, until he reaches the horizon, H, and entering the “vanishing point,” disappears, to an observer in England, in the west, beyond the continent of North America, as in the morning he is seen to rise from the direction of Northern Asia. An excellent illustration of this “rising” and “setting” of the sun may be seen in a long tunnel, as shown in diagram, fig. 65. The top of the tunnel,

cause-of-sunrise-3

FIG. 65.

1, 2, and, the bottom, 3, 4, although really equi-distant throughout the whole length, would, to an observer in the centre, C, appear to approach each other, and converge at the points, H, H; and a lamp, or light of any kind, brought in, and carried along the top, close to the upper surface 1, 2, would, when really going along the line, 1, S, 2, appear to ascend the inclined plane H, S, to the centre, S, and after passing the centre, to descend the plane S, H; and if the tunnel were sufficiently long, the phenomena of sunrise and of sunset would be perfectly imitated.

A very striking illustration of the convergence of the top and bottom, as well as the sides, of a long tunnel, has been observed in that of Mont Cenis. M. de Porville, when in the centre of the tunnel, noticed that the entrance had apparently become so small that the daylight beyond it seemed like a bright star. “Before us, at an apparently prodigious distance, we beheld a small star at the entrance of the gallery. Its vivid light contrasted strangely with the red glare of the lamps. Its brightness increased as the horses dashed on the way. In a short time its proportions were more clearly defined, and its volume increased. The illusion was quickly dispelled as we got over some kilometres. This soft white light is the extremity of the gallery.” 1

We have seen that “sunrise” and “sunset” are phenomena dependent entirely upon the fact that horizontal lines, parallel to each other, appear to approach or converge in the distance. The surface of the earth being horizontal, and the line of sight of the observer and the sun’s path being over and parallel with it, the rising and setting of the moving sun over the immovable earth are simply phenomena arising necessarily from the laws of perspective.

The Enemy Is Prepared for Everything – Including Flat Earthers

Posted on December 14, 2020 by revealed4you

carry-their-liesThe enemy is prepared in all case scenarios in their plans lying to the people. When it comes to the flat earth, they have their plans. They know that one day people will wake up and know the truth, so they have their plans for when this happens. To better know how the enemies of Christ react, you’ve got to think like them. I know, it’s a terrible thought but just do some imagination; pretend you are in a film and your role is to play the bad guy – what will you do?

I thought about playing this role, for, in order to know what to expect, you’ve got to know what your enemy probably will do. So, what will they do when it comes to the flat earth believers?

We already know much what they do, such as:

  • being ignored
  • being ridiculed
  • actually be censored in some way
  • defamation of character, etc.

These are the common things that we have all seen and, some of us have experienced. But is there a more clever design that the enemies of truth is using; that is slipping under our collective radar? I believe there is.

We have all heard of The Flat Earth Society and it is not the bastion of truth as it was back in the 1980s and 90s, when the leader of it passed away. Now, they do advocate the flat earth and one great thing they do have on their site are the old flat earth books. To this, we give them credit. However, in some of their posts or in their interviews, they claim that ‘gravity’ is the result of the earth ‘travelling 3 metres a second upward’ that gives us gravity. This is deliberate misleading. There are other such things that they do or say that would make anyone turn away and think they are loonies. This is exactly what the government wants – to have people react this way.

More Insidious Method of Discrediting

Believe it or not, there is a more insidious method of discrediting flat earthers, or to get people ‘turned off’ by the idea that the earth is flat and stationary. Now, without mentioning names (you can figure that out for yourself), there are others that are true flat earth believers and they have put out good articles and videos. The videos are professionally made and better than I can do. But it is PART of their message that it totally wrong. That is ridiculing Christians and making blasphemy statements against Christ.

Now, think of this attack Christians and the teachings of Christ; what this would have on Christians who are learning about the flat earth for the first time. A Christian would come to a flat earth site, starts thinking about it, then he/she comes across an article where they read a blasphemy attack on Christ. What would they do? What would you do? They would get turned off, go back to their other reading and be left with the thought that all flat earthers are non-Christians and simply plain kook’s. When someone else approaches him that is a Christian and believes in the flat earth, they won’t even listen to them. I know if I came across such an attack on Christians, and it was my second or third article that I read on a flat earth site, I know that I wouldn’t have been back to read more. But, by the grace of God that was not the case. In fact, the site I was first on to learn about this was Eric Dubay’s site – a person known for having nothing to do with Christianity. But it was many articles later before I read of anything negative about Christianity.

People in NASA, people who call themselves astronomers, astrophysics or what have you are part of this cover up. They are, for the most part, atheists or agnostics. So, they are quite happy to have people turned off the the flat earth news after being on a website that is suppose to enlighten them.

This technique of mixing lies with truth is effective. You can see videos of conservative Christians, good people, who came across the flat earth news, thought it was rubbish and made a short comment to their congregation.

There are a few flat earth sites, like this one, that shows the harmony of God’s word with the flat earth. It’s time that we get in the forefront of the flat earth believers. Unfortunately, those who are not Christian and mixes lies in with the truth are getting all the followers and support. You wonder how many of these follows have adopted the flat earth truth but dropped their Christian beliefs? What a trade off; what a loss? They know about the true shape of the earth but they’ve lost their Creator, and thus, living in Christ’s Kingdom.

First, and foremost, keep your belief in Christ and the Bible truths along with the flat earth truth, too. After all, the flat earth truth was first mentioned in the Holy Bible.

High Priests of “Science”

Ask Questions to Make Debunkers Think (If That is Possible)

flat earth handoutsWe all know the mass of people who are addicted to the religion of scientism is overwhelming. Those people usually subscribe to all those “science channels” on youtube and worship people like Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye (which I think is the absolute worst of them all), Michio Kaku, Richard Dawkins and so on.

People like that (and probably most people anyway) will not listen to any legitimate flat earth scientific proofs. So before you can actually engage them in any kind of debate they are long gone (and probably think you are some kind of a prankster who was attempting to steal their time). This means that even mentioning flat earth will turn them away immediately and they will never question their whole “scientific”world view.

So why not disrupt their science religion and giving them a headache by asking simple questions that they have never really thought of and make them at least go….hm? The key here is to come off really interested in their opinion and make them believe that they might be able to really help you understand their ludicrous ball-earth “science.”

Just hit them with one question at a time and make sure you don’t show your support for the flat earth (because if you do that in any way – conversation probably is over).

Here are some examples:

Begin like this: “Hey ______, I really like your ___work/youtube science channel/blabla/whatever_____. I have question that I hope you could answer me: ……”

1) ….How is it that there are no tides in lakes, ponds, rivers, etc. (not even in a glass of water) and why is it that the moon’s gravity doesn’t seem to have any effect on the gases in our atmosphere?

Are there some kind of winds that follow the moon’s path over the earth? (and people on the side of the low tide might be gasping for air, lol…just kidding)

2) …Can you please explain me how it is possible to see a blood moon (lunar eclipse) at daytime?

also: lunar eclipse at sunrise

3) …I would like to know how is it that the durations of twilight are shorter in the southern hemisphere and longer in the northern hemisphere?

For example look at the duration of civil twilight:

http://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/australia/sydney (southern hemisphere)

vs.

http://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/sweden/stockholm (northern hemisphere)

vs.

http://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/ecuador/quito (near the equator)

Never could get my head around that. Please someone explain in a simple way so that I understand. Maybe I’m too dumb, but simply turning my toy globe doesn’t help me find the solution. So, please help 😉

4) ….Why does the atmosphere rotate with the earth? I mean the mass below it stays the same no matter of the location, so therefore I just don’t get the “Because of gravity”-answer. In other words, why does the cloud care whether Africa, New Zealand or Antarctica is below it, when there is always the mass of the whole world below it? So why is the atmosphere so “glued to the ground”? How does this work? Could you please explain?

5) ….I noticed that the continents on the globe of google earth (which claims to have a mathematically correct model of the earth) do not match up with the NASA photos of earth from space.

just one example

How can google be so wrong? What kind of mistakes are those guys making? I mean, I know that there are all kind of different projections of earth for 2D-maps where the sizes of the continents are all wrong and so on, but with the globe itself this cannot happen, right? *confused*

6) ….Shining light on a spherical object always creates a hot spot, right? So why do we not see such a hot spot on the moon or on any NASA picture from the earth or the other planets?

7) ….When airplanes fly straight, the earth underneath them curves, right? So to keep a constant altitude, do they actually have to descent all the time? I mean, otherwise they would end up higher and higher and eventually leave the atmosphere just by flying straight, right? How much do they have to descent?

8) ….Where exactly is the barrier between the atmosphere and the vacuum of space? How does it work and why is the vacuum of space not powerful enough to suck the atmosphere from the earth?

Has somebody ever tried to build for example a high cylinder where the inside is under vacuum and there is a valve (as an air-inlet) at the bottom? The goal of course would be to measure the pressure on top vs. on the bottom of the cylinder with different amounts of air put into the cylinder via the inlet at the bottom.

Hopefully this will at least get them to try to think for themselves a little bit.

As I don’t have a youtube account (and I do not want to have one), I will not contact those YT channels. But I will try to do it via e-mail to some science websites.

So if you like this idea, please join me.

Some more questions:

To continue my approach of hitting all those science experts with questions that will lead them to at least think a little bit for themselves, here are some more questions. I hope you guys will come up with new ones as well.

Here we go….

9) …in my everyday experience I feel that there is a big difference between sunrise and sunset. Sunrise to me looks more bright, golden and energetic, whereas sunset feels more quiet and reddish. So they look and feel completely different, although they should be the same right? (Like a film that you play backwards looks the same.)

So what are the factors that play into this perception? Has it to do with temperature? Is it more a psychological thing (hard to imagine, because if you just look at google images you will see the difference there as well)? What’s the reason exactly?

10) ….as we all know, we cannot see a new moon from the earth. At night that’s totally logical of course, but what about daytime? The moon is between the sun and the earth. You can only see it when it’s directly aligned with the sun during a solar eclipse. However you can often see the complete moon at daytime when it is crescent. You mostly see the illuminated part, but you can also see the rest (faint but still visible). Any picture that tells you it is a depiction of a new moon at daylight always has one side brighter than the other – therefore it can only be a crescent moon not a (full) new moon.

Why isn’t it possible to see a faint (full) new moon at daytime (like holding any object between my eyes and any bright enough light source, I can always make out its shape)?

In other words, shouldn’t the light-scattering of the atmosphere not obscure the (bigger) faint part of a crescent moon like it does with a new moon? By the way, you can also see the faint part of a crescent moon at night time. Can someone please explain?

more questions regarding the global warming hoax:

11) ….as we all know the density of CO2 is higher than that of the normal atmosphere (air). Otherwise CO2 fire extinguishers won’t work and if you throw dry ice into water the “steam” would just rise and not fall over the edge of the glass, right?.

So if the concentration of CO2 in the surface area is about 400 ppm of the atmosphere, then how much is it let’s say in 20 km height?

And if this height is the place where most of the heating up of the atmosphere is happening (global warming – reflection of heat back to earth) and the little amount of CO2 up there (should be way way less than 400 ppm) is so potent to heat up the entire planet as it does, then why don’t we just use CO2 to isolate our homes? For example make double glass windows and fill them with pure 100% CO2. Shouldn’t that have a super strong effect in reflecting the heat back into your home? Am I missing something or shouldn’t this work just like it does in the upper atmosphere? ?????

12)…I have learned that heat always flows from hot to cold, never the opposite way. Can somebody please explain why this seems to be different in all those explanations for global warming? How can the heat be reflected at 20 km height where the temperature is much colder than on the relatively hot surface of earth? If it is just because of the reflection of infra-red radiation, then why is the layer of CO2 in the atmosphere not reflecting all the incoming infra-red radiation from the sun back to into space, so it doesn’t get to earth in the first place? In other words, shouldn’t CO2 have a cooling effect instead of heating? Or at least shouldn’t the reflected IR rays from the earth and the sun just cancel each other out?

THE IMPORTANCE OF A CORRECT COSMOGONY

telescope-1A false cosmogony is leading thousands to infidelity and to death. The infidel says: –

“As we are whirled upon our spinning and glowing planet through the unfathomable spaces, where myriads of suns, like golden bees, gleam through the awful mystery of the vast void night, what are the phantom gods to us?”-Clarion, April 24, 1903.

If we, by the mercy of God, have escaped this “vast void of night,” shall we leave others to perish in it? We Zetetics know that the world is not “a planet,” but a plane; and the plane-earth truth knocks the bottom out of the Evolution theory, with its dark and hopeless godlessness. Let us therefore do all we can to save others from unconsciously imbibing the fatal poison of this evolutionary science, a “science falsely so-called.”

Let us warn our children as they go to school. Let us try to aid others by voice or by pen; and by scattering literature, or pamphlets, upon the Plane truth. God, through His servant Moses, began the Bible revelation with a formal account of the Creation of the World. We should begin there. We must come back to this Divine Cosmogony. He instituted the Sabbath as its weekly memorial; but both, alas! have alike been forgotten. We must come back to first principles. The world ere long will be divided into two camps, and we shall have to take our place in one or the other. Zetetics, or Planists, will be last to give up their faith in the Divine inspiration of the Holy Bible. True Zetetics will never give it up. But the last battle of Inspiration will have to be fought on these lines. Real Facts will help us; Nature will help us; and God will help us. The down-grade critics, the scientists, the infidels, and the devil will oppose. They all attack the Cosmogony of Genesis, and only the Christian Zetetic can stand intelligently to it. Let us therefore buckle on our armour, and quit ourselves like men and Christians; and so we shall save ourselves, and our children, from this apostate and untoward generation. “If God be for us, who can be against us”? Remember: –

“When our Lord Jesus Christ shall be revealed from heaven, with His mighty angels, in flaming fire, taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, who shall be punished with everlasting destruction;”……….then “He shall come to be glorified in His saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was belied) IN THAT DAY.” Paul.

“Amen, even so, come Lord Jesus.”

Proofs from Scripture That The Earth is Flat, part 2

Posted on December 5, 2020 by revealed4you

(Note: spelling and grammar is as in the original text.)

53 – Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said, Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth, declare if thou hast understanding. – Job 38:1,4. Our modern astronomers would here contend there are none, only an imaginary axis. What folly to be wiser than God – and think they could teach God something.

100-proofs-bible-2

54 – Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? Or who laid the corner stone thereof? Whereupon where the sockets made to sink. – Job 38:6. Job did not know, and God did not then reveal it.

55 – They know not, neither will they understand: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course. – Psalms 82:5; see also Isa. 27:11; Psalms 82:5

56 – He laid the foundations of the earth; that it never should move at any time. – Psalms 106:5. Prayer book version and margin Heb. He hath founded the earth upon her bases, not axis. General Drayson quoted this text in argument with the writer, E.B., and promptly admitted that according to Pslams, it was a fixed earth; and “if you put scripture above geometry, then I cannot argue with you, for it is a fixed earth.” To which we replied, “that we certainly should, as we did not believe the Creator would give the wrong impress on of His own works.”

57 – And it shall come to pass (at the second advent)…the foundations of the earth do shake. – Isa 24:18

58 – Hast thou not understood from the foundations of the earth. – Isa 40:21. Every solid building rests on a solid foundation.

59 – And forgetest the Jehovah, thy Maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth. – Isa.

60 – That I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth; and say unto Zion, Thou art My people. – Isa. 51:16

61 – Thus, said the Lord; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the Jehovah. – Jer 31:37. Here the Lord stakes the salvation of Israel upon the challenge, if heaven above cam be measured. He knew it to be impossible, or would not have mad the challenge.

62 – Hear ye, O mountains, the Lord’s controversy, and ye strong foundations of the earth; or, “ye enduring foundations of the earth.” – Micah 6:2 (R.V.)

63 – The Sun is always declared the perpetual traveller – never the Earth – by the mighty Creator Himself, and the wisest man that ever lived, Solomon. The sun also ariseth and the sun goeth down and hasteth to his place where he arose – Eccl. 1:5 (R.V.) Is there a wiser man than Solomon among modern astronomers?

64 – And God said let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, to divide between day and night, so as to shine upon the earth. – Gen. 1:14. The heavenly bodies ae then entirely subservient to the earth, and the perpetual servants of the earth. Who would think of making the servant 1230 times larger than the master; or the sailor boy 1230 times more important than the admiral? As the astronomers make Jupiter 1230 times bigger than the earth. What insanity!

65 – And let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years – Gen. 1:14. Not let it, the earth, be for seasons, by useless revolving around the sun; but let them. The earth is entirely passive as regards the seasons, as passive as a drum; it has no more to do with their regulation than the Queen has to do with regulating the affairs of the Court of Russia. Everything in the economy of nature is based upon the plan of philosophical necessity, and there is not the slightest necessity for the earth’s pathway to regulate seasons, since the sun’s path through the twelve signs of the Zodiac does it all. This is acknowledge by God Himself to Job.

66 – Therefore, we read of the precious fruits brought forth by the sun – not by the earth, which is entirely helpless in the matter – no sun, no fruit – Deut. 33:14

67 – Joshua kenw that the sun was the traveller as well as Moon therefore on a specially important occasion, for the service of Jehovah, he commands the sun to stand still: “Sun, stand still upon Gideon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon.” And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. – Joshua 10:12 The perpetual controversies there has been in Christendom on this one event is truly appalling. Simply because the fixed laws of nature have been misrepresented by modern astronomy, some going so far as to say, in the Portsmouth Town Hall, that the light was continued without the sun. Who ever heard of the light of a whole day being supplied without the presence of the sun? What subterfuges do the difficulties of unbelief leave people to adopt. The difficulties of unbelief are always greater than those of faith. Dr. Adam Clark regretted that he had commenced his commentary, and puzzled his brain for a whole fortnight over it’ but Dr. Gill, a great predecessor of the Rev. Charles Spurgeon, took a wiser course for his inimitable commentary, and wrote: “It was a most wonderful and surprising phenomena to see both luminaries standing still in the midst of heaven. How this is to be reconciled with the Copernican system, or that with this, I shall not enquire.” Quite right, Dr. Gill. Lux himself, would stand on firmer ground if he followed Dr. Gill, and believed Joshua before the astronomers.

68 – David was a bright astronomer, with the mind, inclination, and opportunity for studying the heavenly bodies, while watching over his flocks by night, and his 19th Psalm gives results – “The heaven declares the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handy work. There is no speech, nor language; their voice cannot be heard. In them hath he set a tabernacle, a tent for the sun. which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run his course. His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof” Then David compares it to the infallible Word of the Lord. – Psalms 19 (R.V.)

69 – Deborah, the prophetess, prayed with the same understanding: “So let all thine enemies perish, O Jehovah: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might. – Judges 5:31

70 – “To him that made the sun to rule the day; for his mercy endureth for ever.” – Pslams136:7,8. Not the earth t rule the day, which makes no interference with the sun in any way whatever!

71 – David held his views of astronomy to the end of his lfe, and on his dying bed declared, “The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me: one that ruleth o’er men righteously, that ruleth in the fear of God, he shall be as the light of the morning when the sun riseth. A morning without clouds, e.e., in the times of the restoration of all things which God hath spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began.” – Acts 3:21. 2 Samuel 23:3,4.

72 – So Isaiah prophesies that when the nations of the earth which are saved, are in their triumphant state in the new creation, when the new Jerusalem shall be a praise on the earth, the old Jerusalem being now done with for ever; They sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the Jehovah shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended. They people also shall be all righteous; they shall inherit the earth for ever. The Jehovah will hasten it in Christ’s time.” Isaiah 60:20

73 – God declared by Amos that He would cause the sun to go down at noon, and so darken the earth in the clear day. – Amos 8:9.

74 – Habakuk in prophesying concerning the end of all things, says: “The sun and moon stood still in their habitation.” – Hab 3

75 – Christ Himself declared the sun to be the traveller, in His sermon on the mount – who dares to contradict Him, at their cost – “That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.” – Matt. 5:45.

Proofs from Scripture That The Earth is Flat, part 1

Posted on December 4, 2020 by revealed4you

It was some time ago that I posted the first part of 100 Proofs from Scripture That The Earth is Flat. This is a continuation of an old booklet that was written in the late 19th Century. I hope you enjoy this.

(Note: Spelling, italics and grammar is as in the original text.)

100-proofs-bible

26 – The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall and not rise again. – Isa 24:20 That is, at the second advent, but not till then will it reel and shake.

27 – Thus saith the Jehovah, the heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool. – Isa 66:1 Who ever heard of a footstool always rolling away. The earth will be christ’s everlasting footstool. Praise His name.

28 – At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard among the nations – Jer. 50:46 and 49:21. Moved at the end; but not till then. Through Rome shall come the end of the times.

29 – They are the eyes of the Lord, which run to and fro through the whole earth. – Zech 4:10. Not round and underneath it, but through it at one time.

30 – And they answered the angel of the Lord that stood among the myrtle trees, and said, “We have walked to and fro through the earth, and behold all the earth sitteth still, and is at rest. – Zech 1:11. A wonder they never saw it revolve on its axis.

31 – The earth and the works that are therein shall be discovered; as the mos ancient manuscripts read. II Peter 3:10. The foundations among them.

32 – And I saw a great white throne, and Him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away, and there was found no place for them. – Rev. 20:11 But according to modern astronomy it is always fleeing away, no one knows where.

33 – And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, as the rebuking of the Lord, at the blast of the breath of His nostrils; He sent from above, He took me; He drew me to Himself out of many waters. – II Sam. 22:16,17. To be fulfilled at the advent, see also Pslam 18:15,16

34 – Thou wentest forth for the salvation of They People; for the salvation of Thine annointed. Thou woundest the head out of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. – Heb. 3:13. Driving out satan as the god of this world, and preparing everything for Himself, in the inhabited earth to come.

35 – Fear before Him, all the earth; the world also shall be stable that it be not moved. – I Chron. 16:30. A stable earth, not moved, is very different to the wobbling merry-go-round of the astronomers.

36 – The world also is established that it cannot be moved. They throne is established of old, Thou art from everlasting. – Psalm 43:1,2. Cannot be moved is a strong statement. Who is to cancel it? See also Psalm 45:10, which refers to the future.

Telling My Step-granddaughter About the Flat Earth

Posted on November 29, 2020 by revealed4you

Teaching the flat earth via mathematics

umbrella-1My step-daughter and her daughter came over for a visit. My step-granddaughter is 13 years old and it was 9 years since I had last seen her. Since I like to teach I thought I’d have a little lesson for her. Isabel told me that she likes math, so I thought it would be good to introduce the formula that astronomers use to determine the declination of the earth. You all know the formula – 8 inches times the distance squared.

As I wrote this down and explained it to her, I asked her if she knows how to square the distance. She did. I had her do some multiplication and division. I gave her her first math problem – which she got right. Then I went on to say that we are told that you cannot see anyone that is 6 miles away. Yet, in reality we can see someone 6 miles away – even though you have to use a telescope. I explained that the formula is right and this is what globe earth believers tell us.

I like to stir curiosity into my teaching; as humans we are strongly motivated to learn more when this is done. I told to her, “Isabel, would like to know a math problem that the teacher will not be able to solve?”

“Yes,” was her response.

I built up the curiosity more by saying, “How would you like to be able to solve this problem that your teacher would not be able to? And, how would you like to look like a hero?”

Again, Isabel said, “Yes!”

After showing the math and explaining to her that it would be impossible to see a person 6 miles away because of the curve in the earth. Yet, we are able to do so. She could not figure this out. Later, she thought it was because the person is too small and the earth too big to do this.

I said, “The only answer can be is that the earth is not a globe?

She didn’t believe this, so I continued by asking her a couple of questions. “Can you put water on a ball?”

She said, “No.”

“Can you put water on the side of anything and have it remain there?”

Again, Isabel said, “No.”

“So, how can we expect water to stay on a huge ball – the earth – if the earth is round?”

She thought about this for a moment and said, “It’s gravity,” thinking she had the answer.

I said, “If it’s gravity, why doesn’t it keep water on a ball? Why doesn’t it keep water on a big ball. Why doesn’t it keep water on a heavy ball?”

At this point, she had to think about this.

So, I bought up other questions that she might ask later on; then I answered those questions. I brought up the sun and we see it round and it moves and the moon – the same thing. I then explained how it was the sun and moon that was moving and not the earth.

Then Isabel brought up the boat and how it goes over the curve. I said that if you watch it ‘disappear’ you can see it again with a telescope and that we all know that a telescope cannot see though things. So, this proves that the earth is flat.

Slowly but surely she learned of the flat earth. Well, since the time I told her this, we had a party going in the house – sort of a family reunion – where there were 12 people.

All of this took place Wednesday, 27 April, 2016. (Yesterday, at the time of this Post.)

After our little lesson, she took the paper that I was writing on, upstairs. Then she came down, went out side all excited to tell her mother, “Mum, do you know that the earth is flat?!” she exclaimed in her little voice. Her uncle was there, heard it and laughed. It was about a minute later when I came out and Isabel was still talking to him when Steve said to me, “So, you think the earth is flat?” I said, “I just wanted to show her that the maths point this out.” This stop his laughing and he just thought that is was some kind of game I played.

A minute later when we were away from the naysayers, I said to Isabel, “I had no idea that you were going to tell others. You have to keep this to yourself as most people do not believe this.”

teaching-flat-earthI had not thought about this when I was teaching Isabel the math and should have said something at that time. Well, no harm done, as her mother and uncle thought this was a parlour trick. My wife knows that the earth is flat, so there IS agreement between her and me.

I had to inform my little step-granddaughter that she has to learn more about this before she brings it up; just give people a link to a good video and let them decided. At her young and tender age she should not bring this up in school, as the kids would laugh as well as the teacher. They will not take the time to study it and, quite frankly, people are too brainwashed. People, young and old, want to be part of a crowd and don’t want to be booted out because of their beliefs.

Some may say, “You should not have said anything to a 13 year old; maybe if she was older, OK.” I disagree with that. That is like saying, “You should not tell your child about Jesus Christ and the Old Testament stories as they would be laughed at. We all know that most people are not Christians at school and Christians seem to be keeping silent now. Yet, we Christians know that we should tell our children about the Bible. We know that they will get flack for their beliefs but we tell them anyway. Many children laugh at others about the Christian beliefs but that is just the chance they have to take. Naturally, we prepare them and say if they don’t want to listen, then don’t force it on them. The verbal attacks and snickers eventually stop and the kids play together again.

I hope that the above will give you some ideas of how to introduce the flat earth children. Children have a natural curiosity and they want to learn. So, we should introduce that to our teaching. When they learn the truth about this, they will – hopefully – learn other Bible truths. Thus, they are better prepared for life ahead. Truth helps people in life: they know what is right and wrong, who to trust, how to act, and how to live a good life.

Happy Thanksgiving Day 2020

I know, you’ll probably thinking what you could be happy about now, but read on…

If someone calls you a conspiracy theorists because you believe in the flat earth or whatever, respond by telling them, “It’s better than being a complicity theorist,” and quote the following so they know what you’re talking about.

Complicity Theorist (noun)

A person who accepts the political narrative of the day unquestionably; consumes mainstream media like it was in 1980; and is prone to submissiveness, outbursts of irrational fear, and public shaming of free-thinkers.

Law to Keep Police in Check

Not saying that this will guarantee it will work but many have done this. They carry with them a copy of Title 18, Section 242.

The government has no right to close your business or keep you in prison in your own home, per this US Code.

Title 18 – Crimes and Criminal Procedure
Part I – Crimes
Chapter 13 – Civil Rights
Sec. 242 – Deprivation of rights under color of law

Eyes to See, Body That Feels and Brain to Think, part 3

Posted on November 26, 2020 by revealed4you

THE ENLIGHTENMENT OF THE WORLD

by Mr. John G. Abizaid

Note: This booklet was originally printed in 1910; this came from the 2rd addition in 1912. The grammar and the punctuational is the same as in the original.

Chapter 3

The Sun, Moon and Stars

In this chapter you will find proofs to show that the sun, moon and stars are always in motion.

I have proved in Chapter 1 and 2 that the earth is flat and stationary.

As long as the earth is flat and stationary it will prove that the sun is in motion over the earth, and traveling in a circle, lighting up all the countries that it shines upon. It cannot light up all the world at once, because the earth is larger than the sun.

People think the sun is large because they see it through a spy-glass. The spy-glass, you know, makes everything seen through it look large, even when it is not large, and you can see the sun round and move, circling above the earth; you will know that without any proof.

Do you believe that the sun is stationary and larger than the earth? For it cannot be larger than the earth. (See illustration of sun rising and sunbeams.)

If the sun is larger than the earth, it would light up all the world at once.

Think this over and you will find that what I say is correct and the proofs are correct also.

If you are in a room with windows towards the rising sun, you will find that the sun always throws its rays down near the floor and not the ceiling.

I am sure that the rays of the sun will never touch the ceiling either morning or evening. It makes no difference if you have your room on a high mountain, the sun will be higher. Its own light proves that for itself.

This will prove that the sun is high, but if you see the sunlight on the ceiling, that will mean that the sun is rising from a low place, or that the earth is round and in motion. But if you cannot see the sunlight on the level ceiling, that will prove that the sun is always high, and the earth flat and stationary.

The sun is always height and turning in a circle above the earth.

In winter the sun goes far from us, which makes the days short and cold, but in summer when it comes back near us, it makes the days long and warm.

You will know when the sun is near you and when it is far from you, from its light; also you can tell which way it is turning in a circle above the earth from its rising and from its light, and also you know that by observation. And if you examine the sunlight you will find the sun is traveling in a circle.

Some people say that if they start from a certain place and go around the earth, that they would pass under the earth and come back at the same place they started from. They think that the earth is round like an orange; also that they have passed under the earth. The earth cannot be round, for I have given a great many proofs to show that it is flat and level.

They follow the compass, and the compass always points to the middle of the earth which we call north. They travel in a circle on a level place near the equator and they think they are going around the earth in a circle, but they are really traveling on flat and level ways. It cannot be any other way. If they started on a steamer and went south without a compass, they would get lost and find nothing but water, ice and darkness.

Here is another good sign that shows that the sun is very high and smaller than the earth: –

When the sun is rising in the United States of America, it will look as though it is rising from a low place, but the people in Europe will see the sun very high over their heads about noon time, also the people in Asia Minor will see the sun very low in the afternoon.

Do you think that there is a hollow between Asia Minor and the United States because the sun looks low to the people in Asia and to us (U.S.A.), but high to the people in Europe? No! No! There is no hollow, but it is all level, for the great distance from here to the sun shows you that.

Explanation of the chart

The meaning of A, B, C, D and E on the lines of the sunbeams in the illustration of the position of the sun.

The first line of the sunbeam, A, means when you first see the sun in the morning. It seems to you the sun is rising from a low place. If you examine any shadow or your own shadow, you will see the shadows long when the sun is coming from a great distance; but when the sun comes near you, your shadow will be short. Examine the sunbeams and your own shadow; you will soon know that the sun is round, high and in motion, smaller than the earth and moving in a circle above it.

shadow-1

.

shadow-noon

B means in the A.M., when the sun has come nearer to you, and is shining more directly over you and you feel it warmer. Your shadow is shorter and is passing by you. You will see that this is correct if you will take time and watch it.

C means midday. At that time the sun is nearest to you. You will see it above your head, and you will feel warmer and your shadow will be shorter than at any other time.

D means in the P.M. You will see that your shadow is growing longer because the sun is moving from over you.

E means that the sun is going to a great distance from you. You feel cooler, and your shadow is growing longer and turning in a circle. If you measure the sunbeams and your shadow before sunset, you will see that the sun is always high and in motion, passing in a circle above the earth from one country to another, and also you will see the moon and stars before sunset and after.

In the illustration of the sun rising and the sunbeams, you will see that the sun is round and smaller than the earth. Also that it is moving in a circle, above every place reached by its light. When the sun leaves a place it changes from day to night, and in the place where it was night it will be day. The illustration shows this.

Pay attention to these proofs: the fist shows that the sun is very high; the second shows that the sun is smaller than the earth, for if it is larger than the earth the people in Europe would see the sun above their heads, wile the people in America would see it above their heads, and both at the same time; the third show that the earth is flat and level.

This is another proof to show you that the sun is going around in circles above the earth: –

When the sun is rising you will never see it coming straight to you, but going in a circle always to the right above your head. You will find that from the shadow of your house, or the sunlight when it shines into your room, etc.

I know that the sun is smaller than the earth and in motion high in a circle above the earth. You will know that by looking at the sunbeams.

Here is a good proof about the sun that everybody can try at home:

Place your lamp on the table and place your hand at the side of the lamp, and you will see the shadow of your hand on the wall, and if you place your hand over the lamp you will see the shadow of your hand on the ceiling, and if you place your hand below the lamp you will see the shadow of your hand on the floor, if you watch the sun beams you will know that the sun is smaller than the earth and always in motion in a circle high above the earth.

And after all, if you want to know which moves, – the earth or the sun, – you must take time to stop a while and watch them both.

Here is another proof to show you that the earth is flat and stationary, and the sun in motion: –

If you can see or feel the earth turning down on one side and up on the other, then you are right, and the earth is in motion and the sun stationary; but if you cannot see or feel this, then the earth is stationary and the sun is in motion; and if the earth is always level on every side of you, it means that the earth is flat.

If you will take time to think you will find out the truth for yourself, – when I have shown you the way. I do not want you to believe it because I say so, but I want to show you how things are and if you will pay attention you will know what is right as well as I do.

If the sun is stationary, we would feel the earth turning, from many different things.

First the houses and posts would lean to one side with the land, and we would see one direction low and the other direction high. If you see the land low on one side and high on the other side, then the sun is stationary, but if it is not, then the sun is in motion. If you cannot see or feel the earth turning, then it is stationary, and the sun is turning. You will know from the water of the ocean that the sun is moving above it, for if the earth is turning upside down, there would be no water in the ocean.

They say that the sun is bigger than the earth. But I found out from the sunbeams that the sun is smaller than the earth, and the people that live in Asia, the people that live in Europe, the people that live in Africa and in America would see the sun above their heads at the same time. There will be noontime all over, it will make no difference. Suppose there were ten people under one umbrella, the same size as one we use now, do you suppose they would all see the umbrella over their heads? No; they cannot see it above their heads because the umbrella is too small to cover all ten people and all would see it above their heads. If there were an umbrella as big as a town it would cover all the people that live in a town, and all the people who live in the town would see it over their heads. And that is the way with the sun. If the sun were bigger than the earth it would shine on the whole earth, and all the people in the whole earth would see it over their heads at the same time. This is a good proof from the sunbeams and the umbrella, and you will find it a good proof that the sun is smaller than the earth and in motion, and the moon and stars are also smaller and in motion. The earth is flat and stationary, as I have proven it before.

The sun we can compare with a parasol – if the parasol was large enough it could cover the whole world – just so the sun. it is not large enough to throw light over the whole world at one time.

The Indian is looking at the proof of the parasol. He compares the sun with the parasol by saying that if the parasol were large enough, “I could see it here over my head, too.” Also the same with the sun – if it were large enough it could cover the earth; and the people, no matter where they were located, cold see it at the same time above their heads.

parasal

They used to say about 500 years ago that the earth was flat and stationary and the sun was in motion. But they had no proof like those I have in my book. This is the reason they changed their minds. But now you must wake up and judge the truth for yourself.

Read everything I say in this book and you will find it just right. There is no guess-work in my book as in the geographies. You do not have to believe what I say in this book, because you have eyes to see with, bodies to feel with and brains to think with.

The geography says that the earth is turning, but no one has ever seen it turn, or felt it, but they can see the earth flat and stationary; the geography also says that the sun is stationary, but no one has ever seen it standing on anything at all.

There is no use believing such foolish talk as we read in the geographies. The geography has no good proofs, but only guesswork, which amounts to nothing at all. There is no sense believing professors, because they made a big mistake by telling the people that the earth is round and in motion and the sun stationary.

We do not blame them for this mistake, because everyone makes mistakes.

This book is called “The Enlightenment of the World,” because it will wake every one up, and correct this mistake.

The sun does not RISE from a low place, as it appears to do.

Examine your own shadow, or any shadow, in the morning, and again in the afternoon, and you will find the sun always is higher than you, just as the sky is above you. The earth and sky do not meet, as they seem to do. It is only the distance that makes it appear so. Anything at a distance from you seems low, anything near seems high. This is a proof that the earth and sky do not meet. If you stand in a field on a foggy day, you will see that near at hand the fog is higher than you are, but a little further off it looks low and touches the ground.

No matter where you stand the fog appears in the same way, and the earth and sky do not seem to meet, and that is just like the fog around you. Examine it and you will find that what I say is correct.

I started from Boston in a steamer going to New York City.

Long bridge

As I neared the city, I happened to see two bridge ahead of me. Just as I was passing under the first bridge, I found that it was very high, then I looked at the other bridge and I found that it looked very low, almost touching the water.

But when we reached the second bridge I found it as high as the other bridge, so I looked back at the first bridge we passed under and I found that it looked very low, almost touching the water.

Then I knew that both of the bridges were high, but that it was the distance that made them seem low.

It is the same if you go on land. For instance, suppose there is a long, clear road, with telegraph poles the same distance from each other. You look at the one nearest to you, and you will find it high, but the next one looks lower and the next one still lower, and so they seem to be growing shorter and shorter until you cannot see them at all.

But it is not true that the poles are lower, as they look; it is only the distance that makes them seen so just like masts of the ship on the water. This may also apply to the sky.

The sun is the same way.

When the sun is rising and setting it looks as though it were very low. It is not low, but high always, and it is the distance that makes it seem low. When the sun is over our heads it looks very high because it is near us.

The sun, being of a limited capacity, can throw its rays only on a certain portion of the earth at one time. It is similar to an umbrella with a limited capacity to cover a certain number of persons. Of course, you can make an umbrella to cover hundreds of people, if needed, but the sun remains a certain size always, and can neither be made large or small, for it is the work of God, whereas the umbrella is the work of human beings.

The earth has been, and will always be, flat, and there are several proofs and those proofs I claim.

You will find in this chapter that I have given some proofs about the sun.

Pay attention to every word you read in this book. You must not believe anyone who says the earth is round, for you are not crazy, nor a child. Do not believe without a correct proof. Children may believe stories, but now that you are old enough, wake up! You cannot make water nor anything else stay on a round ball. It is the same way with the earth. You cannot make the ocean stay on a round earth without falling off, no matter what people may tell you. There is more water than dry land on the earth, and the water being liquid, cannot be anything else, as I proved in Chapter 1.

Do not let anybody fool you by telling you that the earth is round. As long as there is no proof that the earth is round, you must believe that it is flat and stationary. If you have a good mind why don’t you try to get the best knowledge and follow it? If you are smart, why don’t you wake up and have the best for yourself? If I were you I would not allow anybody to fool me. Don’t be afraid to change your mind when you find that you have been mistaken by following the wrong way. If you wish to know whether the earth is flat or round, read this work carefully, and you will find proofs that the earth is flat and nothing else.

If you wish to buy books and maps of the flat earth, send me word and I can supply them.

In this book we have given you facts that show that the water, the wind, the land, and the sun itself give you their own proofs. Use your own body to feel with, your own eyes and brains to see and understand these proofs.

If anyone should wish to have a further explanation of my ideas, I will answer this questions, provided I am paid for my trouble.

THE END

Dear Friends, –

I should like to say this to you.

If you should like to read my Book, kindly read it two or three times carefully, and think over every sentence and proofs, and you will find that I am right.

Don’t agree without your being positive.

I don’t want you to believe the earth is flat just because I am saying so in my book; but I want you to think over the proofs and try them and find out the truth for yourself.

Now, I would like to ask for some testimony on the subject. I wish the names and addresses of those who agree with me so that I could help in stopping them teaching the small children that the earth is round, and such foolish things as the sun being stationary, and etc.

I like the truth. I also wish the people to like the truth, and for that reason I wrote my book to explain the flat earth subject and so forth. I have proofs and I have some testimonials from educated people, and I desire some more testimonials or some good poetry on the subject from any one who agrees with me. I should be glad to have their names to print in the third edition of my book; also if anyone, having other good proofs on the flat earth subject, et cetera, will send same to me, I will print it and their name also. If I die my children will build upon the same foundation.

That’s the reason I am interested to get your opinion.

Yours truly,

JOHN G. ABIZAID

Greeting:

Your book “The Enlightenment of the World,” is before me. Using the flat of the United States of America is a good plan.

Proper words in proper places may lead us right. Water of the ocean is straight at its surface in long distances. Water flows from high to lower grades.

May you go ahead and win great success in helping to overthrow one of the great delusions made by men of education.

The sun is less size than the earth; were it not so the rays of the sun would shine vertical upon all parts of the earth on the side of the earth toward the sun.

During a number of years I have known of the globe-earth delusion being a failure. Prove it over and over again to increase the great army in favor of the flat earth facts.

Hones doubters need education in Flat Earthism until they are wise and know that they know. Prove it in the most easy ways, to reach as many as you can of the thinking and knowing wise people.

Respectfully,

Dear Sir:

I have read with the utmost attention your “The Enlightenment of the World” and find it is a book of great importance, and which deserves the most attention of the great men of scientific work.

It shows plainly what you state and I firmly believe the whole of it to be true and interesting.

I admire greatly your “The Enlightenment of the World,” and I shall speak to al my friends to get a copy of the same.

Respectfully yours, LEWIS PENNINI

Dear Sir:

I think your efforts to prove that the earth is flat are commendable.

W.W. RICH, Printer.

Dear Sir:

That the earth is flat and stationary was believed for centuries and has not as yet been absolutely proved to be otherwise. I do not believe the earth is round and the fallacious theory should be exploited.

Yours truly,

Mr. John G. Abizaid,

Dear Sir:

Have read your book on position of the earth and see nothing but simple facts. The Bible is the oldest and best book in the world. It is as explicit on the question of the world as on any other subject: Gen. 1:9 God said, let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear, and it was so. Shall we want any other proof than that? Here is is; 14th Verse. And God said, let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night: And let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years, Gen. 1:14,15. the 15th Verse you will please read, for it is important. Read the 16th and 17th and 18th. Do you need any more proof? Here it is; when Moses led the children of Israel out of Egypt two thousand five hundred and thirteen years from creation at Mount Sinai Jesus gave the Ten Commandments. The second Commandment places it just where Gen. 1:9 when He spake and it was done. You may go there you will on this broad earth and you will find it as the word says. We must not forget that it is a destroyed earth for it is not what God made in the fist place. It was mostly land – now it is two-thirds water to one-third land. I will refer you to the 24th Psalm, 1st and 2d Verses, also Ps. 104:1-22, Ps. 136:6, Ps. 102:25,26, Isaiah 42:5. there are over a hundred passages that prove that this earth is not flying in the air. Let us believe in the old book and be governed by it. May God bless you in your work in my prayer.

Yours very truly,

J.B. THOMPSON.

******

I received a letter from Prof. Davis of the Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass., dated April 27, 1911, sayng that to print my book would cost a considerable sum of money; also that the earth turns round as some think, or stands still, as you think; still it is the same hard-working place.

I think Prof. Davis wants me to stop printing my book, by saying it will cost me a sum of money. And he told what the other people think, but he did not say what he thinks.

Also he says the earth is the same hard-working place. He did no say which way is right. I think he knows I am right on the flat earth subject, but he doesn’t want to agree with me because it will be hard from him; he does not want to say anything on the subject for the reason that it would destroy his teaching.

Mr. John G. Abizaid,

Dear Sir:

The press of many studies has prevented my acknowledging before now the receipt of your booklet and letter.

I am afraid I am too old now to learn that the earth is not a sphere-like body.

To be frank I do not see that you have proved that the world is not just as I regard it – and there we are; you don’t see it as I see it.

It does not matter much, does it? Whether it is round or flat since we see so little of it.

I hope you prosper in your new place of business.

Very truly yours, J.B. WOODWORTH

Boston, Mass., April 3, 1911

Professor Woodworth,

Harvard University,

Dear Sir:

Answering yours of February 22nd, 1911, would like to say that at this time I was very so I could not answer you until the present time.

As you stated in your letter that you are too old to learn, I am old and I learned how to read and write the English language. As a fact, the older a person gets the more he knows, and I think that you ought to know the earth is ROUND or FLAT.

You also said that I don’t see the earth as you see it, but I as sure that I do, but I don’t see or feel that this earth is round or in motion and going around the SUN.

You did not see or feel this earth of ours going around the SUN. You also said that my booklet did not have any proofs in it. There are a great many proofs in it to make you change your mind, but you did not read it carefully.

Now you want to read it carefully and pay attention to every proof that it contains and you will find that I am right.

As to the difference it makes whether the earth is round or flat, why it makes a lot of difference between the true and the false.

Take my advice and read my book carefully and you will find the truth and you will let other people know the truth also.

Kindly don’t forget and write me and let me know whether you have changed your mind or not, and oblige,

Respectfully yours,

JOHN G. ABIZAID

Eyes to See, Body That Feels and Brain to Think, part 2

Posted on November 26, 2020 by revealed4you
no 1,000mph wind

No 1,000mph wind up here!

THE ENLIGHTENMENT OF THE WORLD

by Mr. John G. Abizaid

Note: This booklet was originally printed in 1910; this came from the 2rd addition in 1912. The grammar and the punctuational is the same as in the original.

Chapter 2

The Land

The land is solid and all in one piece, joined together under the ocean all over the earth.

The earth cannot be round and in motion as they claim in the geographies, but flat and stationary, because the water is liquid and level and it proves that the land is flat and not moving.

Another proof which shows that the earth is standing still and not moving is to be found in the wind, which they call the atmosphere.

If the earth is turning around daily it will give wind from one direction only.

If you see a train running you will find out that it is giving wind in one direction. But when it stops the wind stops with it.

Nobody ever felt the wind blowing at the same rate daily, but they will feel the wind blowing at times very hard and and at other times very gently, and often from different directions, and sometimes there is very little wind. This is good proof to show the earth is stationary. If the earth was in motion in one direction, it would make the wind pressure in the same direction always.

You will find my proof to show you that the earth is not moving:

If, when you go up in a balloon or airship, starting from a certain place and going as high as you can and when you come down find that the place gone from under you, then you may believe that the earth has moved; but if you find yourself in the same place, or not so very far away from your starting point, then it is plain that the earth is stationary and not moving at all, and this is what really happens.

If, moreover, the earth is turning around and the birds or airships are flying the same way, they will find themselves over the same place they were before. If they fly in the opposite direction of the turning of the earth, they will find themselves flying very fast and always over different places. If you think this over you will find these proofs correct.

After all, the earth cannot be round, because most of it is water, and water cannot be anything but level, as I have given proofs in Chapter 1.

Take a pan of water and turn it upside down, and I am sure the water will fall out. Also, if the earth turns around, the water of the ocean would destroy a great many cities, towns and countries. But the earth cannot be turning or in motion. If it is turning, we should know it immediately, because we have eyes to see, bodies to feel and brains to think with.

Suppose you were riding on a train, car or boat, you would know that you were on something that is shaking. When the train or cars goes up hill or down hill, you can easily tell, even with your eyes closed whether it is going up or down.

It is the same way with the earth. If the earth is turning around or is in motion, we would know it from many different things, as I said before.

They say that there is gravity in the earth which holds everything on it when it turns around. They give these proofs to the people and children in school, and most of them believe such foolish things as that. Their proofs do not amount to anything, but it is all guess-work, because nobody ever felt it or saw it.

I was surprised to know that some people believe in things that were never seen or felt. But the things they can see and feel they pay no attention to. They say if you drop anything it will fall down to the ground, they only think of the law of gravitation takes it down.

Oh, I am sorry for them! They ought to know better than that. They ought to know that heavy things, and all things that have no power like dead bodies, will go down themselves. But some things have power, like the bird, or light things like smoke, and so forth; they will go up, or any way they like. If there was a law of gravity it would bring them down also. Most of the people know up from down, and ought not to believe this foolish thing. I feel sorry that the children are taught about gravity, and that the earth is round and travelling around the sun, and also that the sun is larger than the earth.

There is no gravity at all, for if there was a person could not move a step, and if a bird was on the ground it could not fly in the air again, because the gravity would hold it back. If there is gravity, it is not everywhere, and cannot hold everything, such as gas, balloons, airships, etc.

Here is another proof to show that the earth is flat and stationary: –

If the earth is round and in motion, as they claim, we should know, for when it turns around, at times we should find our heads and feet and the world above us, as though a person were standing on a ceiling and his head downwards and his feet up.

If we were held fast to the earth by gravity, or tied by ropes, we should feel it, and know which way the earth is turning with us.

What we attribute to gravity is really the Law of Density. Ed.

But there is no such thing as gravity, because no one ever felt it. You must not think that you are an intelligent being because you know a great many things. I am sure that no person knows everything in the world. You ought not to believe everything that people say – that the earth is round and in motion, and that the sun is stationary and larger than the earth, etc., until you have examined the facts and found out the truth and follow it.

I think I have given you enough proofs to change your minds about the earth’s being round and in motion.

You will find in Chapter 3 proofs about the sun going around in a circle above the earth.
