Hi t8 (and all),
You’re welcome, t8. The answer to this top-down eclipse is super simple come to find out. You’re right in that a 2D model makes it harder to understand. In a top-down eclipse, the moon is going from 5 degrees above the ecliptic plane towards 5 degrees below the ecliptic plane from your perspective on the Southern Hemisphere. In…[Read more]

Hi Dig4truth,
you asked:
With the moon on one side of the earth and the sun on the other how could the earth cast a shadow on the top of the moon?
My response:
Dig, keep in mind that the sun rays don’t just go to the right and left SIDE of the earth but the rays go towards the earth and beyond in every direction. The penumbra also goes…[Read more]

Hi Dig4truth,
I have some live footage on page 129 but here are some more. The first link is a top-down eclipse from Newport Beach, CA on August 28, 2007, the second link is the same eclipse filmed from Seattle, WA, both in the Northern Hemisphere. The last link is the same eclipse taken from the Southern Hemisphere and it eclipses from the…[Read more]

Here Mike,
If you still need more information on the top-down/bottom-up total lunar eclipse go see the differences at these links.
At this link you will notice that the path that the moon goes on is tilted high on the left and low on the right. That is in the Southern Hemisphere in August…[Read more]

Actually Nick,
This is what I said: “…accepted Jesus as their Lord.”
Of course they were baptized in Jesus.
And they believe Jesus is their Savior, as the apostles declare.
2 Peter 3:17Therefore, beloved, since you already know these things, be on your guard not to be carried away by the error of the lawless and fall from your secure…[Read more]

Hi Nick,
You asked about the fruitfulness of my church and so I will just mention some of the things that come to my mind.
Two former Muslim women accepted Jesus as their Lord recently and were baptized just a couple of weeks ago at my church. One of them that I know of has been receiving one hate text after another on her phone from the Muslim…[Read more]

Mike,
My last post to you on this page was this:
I stand by what I said regarding the lunar eclipse. The dark part is the umbra shadow and the lighter part is from the penumbra shadow. No part of the moon is getting direct sunlight.
You said:
It that were the case, we’d have people shooting footage of top-down eclipses for every single e…

Mike,
you said:
One of my favorites is the clip of the three ISS actors floating and pretending to be fixing something on the ISS when the zero-G plane (vomit comet) ends its dive and they all crash down to the floor on live footage.
Have you even considered that astronauts go through a very long training period before they launch, covering every…[Read more]

Hi Nick,
The many members of my church and I are in spiritual communion with the Father and the Son.
Are you in spiritual communion with the Father and the Son and anybody else? If you are the only one member of your idea of “truth” and you can’t even name any other members, maybe your “truth” needs to realize that you are probably very w…[Read more]

Nick,
Is that your way of saying that the Lord Jesus Christ, God the Father and the Holy Spirit are all in the first commandment category with you? That when you love the LORD God with all your heart, soul and mind, you are loving the Son, the Father and the Holy Spirit more than your neighbor but you also love your neighbor?

t8,
In your post you quoted Mike and responded:
Mike: If big bang, deep time, heliocentric cosmology is right, the Bible is wrong.
Boom! That is the deception. Get as many Christians believing this and then the world can say with confidence, that the Bible has been proven wrong. Sad part would be that the Bible isn’t saying what you are saying M…

Hi Gene,
Thank you for your indirect answer. I guess that is the best that I am going to get from you? I was hoping for a clear direct answer that identified choice b as your answer. I assume that would be your direct response if you were to give one, correct?
In part I agree with you…Jesus is the head of the family of God and under God the…[Read more]

Hi Nick,
I love you. I’ll wait. I hope you can help me understand clearly what is your choice sooner than later. This is not a game for me. I really want to know clearly where everybody stands when looking at these most important commandments.
God bless,
LU

Hi Nick,
Please make it crystal clear. Choose one:
a) first commandment
b)second commandment
Lightenup replied to the topic 2 Commandments, in Which Way do YOU Love Jesus in the forum Scriptural Teachings 7 years, 10 months ago
Gene, Ed, Jodi, Nick, Miia, Jael, David and anyone else that hasn’t clearly said which commandment they love Jesus as, could you please post your choice clearly here.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Gene,
So far you have not directly said which commandment you place your love for Jesus. Could you please make that crystal clear for us.
Can you please select one specific commandment, choose a or be and please leave off any commentary so that we can clearly see where you stand:
a) The First Commandment
b) The Second Commandment
Thank you Gene!
