So here is the moon in the early morning. A light in the morning sky. It is one of the two great lights, known as the lesser light.
It is a cool light, whose light is cooler in it's light than in its shade. Isn't that amazing that the shade of the moon is warmer than the light of the moon?
So the moon light will act differently than the other of the two great lights, and that would be the sun, which is the greater light, whose light is warmer in its light than in its shade.
The two lights act completely opposite of each other. So I don't believe it when they say, that the light of the moon is a reflection of the sun.
No, I will believe the scriptures over the teachings of man, for you will find that the teachings of man are foolishness with God.
As it is written, For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. 1 Corinthians 3:19.
So the moon moves within the firmament of God. It is the firmament that holds the sun, moon and stars, as it is written, And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: the stars also. Genesis 1:16. It is also written, 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: Genesis 1:14.
Jesus mentioned that the stars will fall from the sky, as it is written, with Jesus speaking, But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. Mark 13:24-25.
So the stars will fall from the sky. That means that what NASA tries to tell us of the stars are false. Well, the world won't even want you to acknowledge the firmament.
Remember that the firmament is called heaven. It is actually the second heaven. I would call the first heaven the place where the prince of the power of the air is, or that which is under the firmament.
Then the second heaven is where the sun, moon and stars move within, the firmament. So some think that the firmament is not firm or is not solid, yet there are scriptures that mention that the firmament is solid.
As it is written, Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a molten looking glass? Job 37:18. There is another scripture, as it is written, And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature as the colour of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above. Ezekiel 1:22.
So the firmament is strong and as a molten looking glass, then also as terrible crystal. All of that sounds very solid to me and very strong.
The third heaven is that which is above the firmament, it is where God the Father and Jesus reside, as it is written, And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God. Acts 7:56. The first and second heavens were opened so that Stephen as he was being stoned, got to see Jesus and God in the third heaven.
It is also mentioned in the scriptures that the earth is flattened like a seal to clay. Does not the seal flatten the clay as it seal is imprinted on the clay? As it is written, It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment. Job 38:14.
Well, the firmament will only work with a flat earth.
So the moon in its firmament is a beautiful sight in the morning this day.
Let's end with a scripture, as it is written, I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies my meditation. Psalm 119:99.
