There is no New Thing Under the Sun

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.

(Ecclesiastes 1:9-10) KJV

You may have heard news that the first ever picture of a black hole has been…. what’s the word? constructed? contrived? concocted? fudged? faked? Made up? Take your pick.

Hubble, Redshift, Star Trek & Exoplanets

And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones.

(Revelation 21:19-20) KJV

We (that’s me and the Holy spirit) have been reviewing the development of Physics in the 20th Century. We got to the conundrum of what’s stopping the universe from collapsing under the force of its own gravity.

The Earth is Set Firmly in Place

Praise the Lord’s glorious name;
bring an offering and come into his Temple.
Bow down before the Holy One when he appears;
tremble before him, all the earth!
The earth is set firmly in place and cannot be moved.

(1 Chronicles 16:29-31) Good News Translation

Does relativity refute the idea of an absolute frame of reference? No. Relativity is an inductive rationalization of the premise that there isn’t one, but it’s derived from an incorrect theory of gravity.

Matty’s Constant

The Lord provides the sun for light by day,
the moon and the stars to shine at night.
He stirs up the sea and makes it roar;
his name is the Lord Almighty.
He promises that as long as the natural order lasts,
so long will Israel be a nation.
If one day the sky could be measured
and the foundations of the earth explored,
only then would he reject the people of Israel
because of all they have done.
The Lord has spoken.

(Jeremiah 31:35-37) Good News Translation

We can’t prove heliocentricity, nor do we have an absolute value for the mass of the Earth. Despite this we have a working model of our solar system so accurate that it can land a space vehicle on a comet.

Quantities aren't really quantities, even if we give them names. Words define the thing, even though the thing may be unknown.

The Babylonian Language

The king ordered Ashpenaz, his chief official, to select from among the Israelite exiles some young men of the royal family and of the noble families. They had to be handsome, intelligent, well-trained, quick to learn, and free from physical defects, so that they would be qualified to serve in the royal court. Ashpenaz was to teach them to read and write the Babylonian language.

(Daniel 1:3-4) Good News Translation

Newton gave mainstream science (SciPop) the math it needed to remove Earth from the center of the universe, and hell from the center of Earth. His work is based on bold guesses. They were wrong.

If it Looks Like a Galaxy…

The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground? Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the LORD.

(Obadiah 1:3-4) KJV

Astronomy is an induced rationalization of the premise that swirls of minute specks are galaxies, and the word “galaxy” has been defined to meet the requirements of THE NARRATIVE of mainstream science (SciPop).

The Mass and Lifespan of the Sun

Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance?

(Isaiah 40:12) KJV

Using the Matty’s Paradigm value for the Sun’s mass and Einstein’s energy conversion equation (E=mc2) its life expectancy is about 102 years. Now would be a good time to accept Jesus Christ as your savior.

Johannes Kepler: Galen Urso?

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

(John 15:13) KJV

We (that’s me and the Holy spirit) have been pondering Johannes Kepler. He was hired by Tycho Brahe as a mathematician to analyze the extensive charts and tables which documented Brahe’s observations of the cosmos.
