AsCRIBEs MOTION TO THE SUN.
John in Revelation III says, after
tribulation. After this I saw four
angels standing on the four corners
of the earth. God made it He
ought to know. Does the sun move?
Listen to Gods testimony of Book
of Moses. You say Jasper was lg
norant. He was unlearned. Listen
TO Moses what God said of him.
Acts 1922, Exodus 33:11, Learned
in all wisdom and science of Egypt.
Were Egyptians scientific? Look at
the pyramids.
The Holy Ghost ascribes motion to
the sun in Gods Holy Book more
than thirty times. Moses, who was
learned in all the wisdom of the
Egyptians and with whom God talked
face to face (Acts 1872 and Exodus
3S:11) affirms the motion of the sun
seven times. Remember that the
Egyptians were so skilled in science
hat they set the Sphinx in the desert
and the Pyramids in the delta of the
Nile with such geometric and scien-
tific precision that you cannot detect
the joining of the stones; and after
a lapse of more than 1000 years,
shey have neither settled nor cracked.
They could make flexible glass and
embalm their dead so as to prevent
putrefaction and result in petrifac'
ton.
THE WISDOM OF SOLOMON.
They knew astronomy, astrology,
and geometry. Moses was learned
in all of these and he said the sun
moves. Solomon Il Kings chapters
3 and ~ is proclaimed by God to be
the wisest man that has ever lived
or ever would live: yea, he was SO
learned in music, science, philosophy
and psychology that he wrote 1900
songs; spake: 5000 proverbs; knew
botany from the hyssop on the walN
to the cedars of Lebanon; knew
zoology from the coonies Of the
woods to- the foxes that spoil the
vines: knew human nature so we'll.
that he could tell when women were
lying.
ALL THINGS POSSIBLE. !.
Jesus says in Matthew 5:43-45:
HE maketh His sun to rise on the
just and the unjust. Jesus says 1t
moves. Let all men. be liars, but let
God be true. The question Is not
one of astronomical theories, but one
of the omnipotence of God. God can
do all things, knows all things, hath
His way in all things. If He made
a mistake in ascribing motion to the
sun. it is possible that he made a
mistake in ascribing salvation
through faith. The worst sin in the
world is not drunkenness, murder or
adultery, but unbelief. Jesus saves
thieves, murderers, liars. and what
not. but he cannot save an unbeliever
A WORD ABOUT PREACHERS.
The most ungodly traitor on earth
is the preacher. who lives by the
Gospel and denies the Holy Wor'l
Shall we lay one hand on the breast
of Jesus to take suck and stab with
the other? That is what apostate
preachers are doing. They are damn
ing our children and teaching mod
ernism in our schools and colleges.
They should either be led to the
mourners' bench for repentance and
conversion or driven from the school
room to hard labor.
Yes, the SUN moves. God halted
the sun and stayed the moon over
the plains of Gideon and the valley
of Ajalon for Joshua during the bat"
tie of All: Yes, the sun moves. God
drove it back ten degrees (more than
100000 miles) to prove to Heze'
kiah that his life would be length
aned. Joshua 10th chapter. Isaiah
chapter SO.
