1Ti 6:20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane [and] vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: :21 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace [be] with thee. Amen.

 

The seasons are caused by the annual

motion of the sun around the earth!!

 

The sun follows a clockwise ( East to West ) spiral orbit around a stationary Earth. Complete orbit time is 24 hours.

 

 

 

In addition to orbiting the stationary earth every 24 hours, the sun also follows a spiral

orbit from north to south each year.

That is what gives us the 4 seasons.

The annual north-south motion

 of the sun gives us the 4 seasons.

 

 

Gen 8:22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

 

 

 

 

Equinoxes, solstices, and tropics are the result of the north-south motion of the sun, starting with the vernal or spring equinox on March 21, the official beginning of spring in the northern hemisphere.

On that day, the sun lies on the celestial equator. The word equinox refers to the fact that, on this day, the night is equal to the day: each is twelve hours long. The sun is directly above the equator, so its rays fall vertically down.

Through March, April, and May, the sun moves north. On June 22, it reaches its most northerly point, 23 1/2° above the equator. In the northern hemisphere that day is called the summer solstice. It is the longest day of the year and the official beginning of summer. The sun lies on the circle of the earth called the Tropic of Cancer.


 

On September 23, the sun, moving south, reaches the equator again. The day is again 12 hours long.  That day is called the autumnal equinox and is the official beginning of autumn.

 

On December 22, the sun reaches its most southerly point. That day is called the winter solstice and is the official beginning of winter. The sun shines up from beneath the equator. At noon the sun is straight overhead at points on the earth's Tropic of Capricorn, 23 1/2° south of the equator. At that time, it is the summer solstice in the southern hemisphere.

 

The cycle again repeats itself and gives us our 4 seasons and the solar year.

 

The winter solstice occurs on June 22 in the southern hemisphere.

 

The annual north-south motion of the sun gives us our four seasons.

 

 

 

 

Solar and lunar "declinations"

The earth is NOT TILTED 23.45° degrees....It is UPRIGHT as God created man to walk UPRIGHT.

 

The tilted earth probably came from Galileo as he looked through the telescope and saw that some of the planets were tilted in their orbits around the sun. A tilted EARTH could be an explanation for the seasons, he reasoned, as people were still apt to ask difficult questions about the reason for the seasons!!

 

The moon follows the sun's spiral orbit but instead of taking 1 YEAR it takes 1 MONTH to complete its north-south spiral. The moon and sun are not perfectly synchronized in their respective daily and north-south motion so that is why we do not get solar eclipses at every new moon and lunar eclipses at every full moon.

Yearly Solar Declination

 

 

The moon follows the sun's spiral orbit but instead of taking 1 YEAR it takes 1 MONTH to complete its north-south spiral. The moon and sun are not perfectly synchronized in their respective daily and north-south motion so that is why we do not get solar eclipses at every new moon and lunar eclipses at every full moon.
