Not helpful at all, how can you compare the Queen to the Moon?

Entirely different, and she doesn't rule any of those countries, none of them take orders from her, she only has influence in England.

And saying through Jesus all things are possible is just another way of saying 'cos i say so' when you can't really back it up with scripture.

We're not going to stop telling the truth just because you're too dense to grasp it. If God says that's what the moon is for then that's what the moon is for.

Re: The Sun: Millions of miles away?

If moon is meant to rule the night why can you see it occasionally during the day?

Genesis 1:16
And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

There is no problem here.

By 'rule' God clearly meant to be the brightest. During the day the Sun 'rules' even when the moon is present. During the night the moon 'rules' as it is the brightest object.

Re: The Sun: Millions of miles away?

Thank you Jack, finally a sensible answer.


Redeemed papist, how do you think your answer helps at all?

It's basically, 'cos I said so' or 'it just is ok'

That's how parents talk to their kids, you claim everything can be backed up with scripture so stop with the 'God said it's so, so it is'

Take a leaf out of Jack's book, his answer made sense, you'll just alienate people with your condescending attitude

Tell me dick, isn't it true it was all backed up by scripture, the inerrant Word of God(r)?

[dicker]

Re: The Sun: Millions of miles away?

I just don't like getting fobbed off James, answers like 'Because God says so'
and 'Anything's possible with Jesus' are too ambigious, feel like I'm being talked to like you would a child.

The scripture quoted made perfect sense so we are in 100% agreement on this one!


Praise Jesus.

The answer doesn't have to make sense to you, it just has to be true.

Genesis 1
16And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. 17And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, 18And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. 19And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

That's why God made the moon. It's all there written down so a child could understand it.

Oh look, the answer is the same as the one I gave a few posts up THAT YOU COULDN'T BE BOTHERED TO READ.

And God did say so, and it had better be OK or He will burn you forever. There is no pretence with God - He cannot be trolled.

1 Samuel 16:7 But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.

All I did was explain it as if I was talking to a small child. Redeemed Papist just credited you with more intelligence than you deserved. That was his only error.

Jack, RP credited me with no intelligence, he just said the above.

In fact, his answer is more like one given to a child than yours, e.g.


Mummy, why's the sky blue?

Because God made it blue and that's why.

Now I'm questioning your intelligence, you give a logical answer then a blatant attempt to troll, shouldn't you have a good cop bad cop routine?

Your smileys say Ex Brit, true american? how does that even work?
Did you marry Bruce Willis or Ronald McDonald and get a green card out of it?

But God DID make the sky blue.

He probably didn't want it to clash with the dental colors of the locals.

New Moon can be less bright than Jupiter. Does this mean that Jupiter can also "rule" the sky?

[Alphonse Alban]

Re: The Sun: Millions of miles away?

New Moon can be less bright than Jupiter.

Sure

Care to say when again is this magical night when light generated by Jupiter gives more light in the darkness of a night than light created by moon? I live quite far up in north, so I know the darkness.

Does God have the slightest thing to say on the subject?

Re: The Sun: Millions of miles away?

If moon is meant to rule the night why can you see it occasionally during the day?

My good Sister Mitza explained it quite adequately, but I suppose I will need to adjust her analogy so it's clearer for you.

Raul Castro rules Cuba. (In case you are utterly clueless about current events, Fidel Castro died in April.)

Suppose Raul Castro visits Venezuela. Does he then rule Venezuela? No. He is merely a visitor, or a guest. He still rules Cuba, even though you see him in Venezuela.

Likewise, the moon rules the night. If you see it in daytime, that doesn't mean it rules the daytime. It's merely a visitor, or a guest.

Understand?
