Gravity

And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth.

(1 Samuel 17:49) KJV

The Bible contains an extensively developed doctrine of gravity but it’s not new, it’s always been there. It may be new to you, but it was here already, long ago; it was here before our time.

Gravity was created on the second day. It caused the formless mass of the deep to become spherical. Matter, space and time existed before gravity was created. This is a dramatic challenge to fundamental beliefs and the significance for physics will take a while to sink in (pun intended). It means that the proportional relationship between mass (space-time) and gravity expressed by Newton’s law of universal gravitation isn’t the cause of gravity, it’s an effect.

A particle attracts every other particle in the universe using a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

This is a general physical law derived from empirical observations by what Isaac Newton called induction.

– Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation

It’s okay though because we’ve got a new Biblical law of gravity which allows us to accommodate all empirical observations and experimental results and demonstrate that the Bible is true.

Gravity (A) is a field emitted from a created instance (a singularity) which causes a body to have attractive force (p) proportional to its mass and inversely proportional to the square of its distance from the source (pG).

G is the gravitational constant. This is a general physical law derived from empirical observations by using deduction.

– Matty’s Law of Biblical Gravitation

This law allows us to deduce that the Higgs Boson particle isn’t the cause of gravity, it’s the mode of action of gravity. We also have a mathematical constant that’s used to convert the mass of the sun and other planetary bodies from heliocentric to Geocentrospheric values.

We use a picture of David and Goliath because the word translated sunk in the featured passage is one of the Hebrew gravity concepts which we’ve found in the Bible. The stone sank into Goliath’s forehead in the first recorded instance of a gravity assist. It’s also a metaphor for the delightful possibility that an ex-Janitor has debunked the work of Galileo, Kepler, Newton and Einstein.
