1. KNOWLEDGE CHILDREN of GOD MUST HAVE

2. KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORLD AROUND US

3. Genesis 1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the of midst the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. Genesis 1:7And God made the firmament, and divided the Genesis 1:7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. which were above the firmament: and it was so.

4. Pre-FLOOD EARTH and the WATERS above the FIRMAMENT as NOAH knew it Genesis 1:8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

5. 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 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: And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. Genesis 1:15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

6. And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. Genesis 2:5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth. Genesis 7:4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights. Genesis 7:12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

7. Gen 7:18 And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.

8. Psalm 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Psalm 147:4 He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. Our Sun, the Earth and all Our Sun, the Earth and all the planets of our solar system the planets of our solar system are somewhere here among the countless number of stars! countless number of stars!

9. Let the Children learn

20. 2 Corinthians 4:6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

21. A Classical Mechanics Theory of the CANOPY of the WATERS above the FIRMAMENT An Interpretation of the Book of GENESIS 1) Particles of water of a CANOPY in vapor form orbited the Earth and moved in elliptical paths. 2) Collisions between the particles of water obeyed the Laws of Conservation of Mass, Energy and Momentum!!! 3) The resulting new particles carried away the combined kinetic energy of the initial particles, shifting to new orbits after each collision. 4) And there were basically three kinds of collisions: A) Most collisions between particles of water often gave rise to new, smaller particles of water! These were the hard collisions approaching orbital velocities. The new particles scattered into increased numbers of smaller particles, which carried away the combined kinetic energy of the initial particles, shifting to new orbits after each collision. B) Adjacent particles belonging to a close bunch moved along similar paths with similar orbits and resulted in soft collisions, each time yielding larger particles of water vapor, as they lump together. C) Particles that moved counter to the predominant motion of the CANOPY would have resulted in hard heed-on collisions with relatively higher velocities and were most likely to induce ionization and chemical decomposition of the water vapor into hydrogen, oxygen and other free radicals. The Laws of Thermodynamics and Physics suggest that the resulting products all collisions would have recombined quickly with the bulk of the waters of the CANOPY, a stabilizing effect, supportive of the longevity of the CANOPY system as is described in The Book of Genesis!!! 5) The predominant motion of the CANOPY was either a prograde, same as that of the spinning Earth, or a retrograde motion. The bulk of the waters moved together!!! Modern science and the known ancient records on the CANOPY of waters above the firmament can not reveal, definitively, which of these possible directions might have been the predominant direction of motion! 6) Dividing evenly all waters above the firmament into single particles of water the size of a grain of sand, such that they were to share equally the space above the firmament, a single particle of water would have ample free space, essentially the volume an average sized refrigerator! Conceivably, a single particle of water could by chance make a complete orbit about the Earth without colliding with another particle of water! 7) This vastness of space provided to the waters above the firmament resulted in only occasional collisions between the particles of water vapor, thus providing the Earth's atmosphere with only a sprinkling of water over millennia of time!!! A MIST fell upon the earth!!! 8) The CANOPY of waters above the firmament would have shielded the crust of the Earth from the intense solar radiations and insulated the Earth from the production of radio-carbons and the breading of the radio-active atmosphere, providing the conditions for the pre-flood longevity of humankind!!! It would have shielded the intense solar rays responsible for the evaporation and the conditions for rain upon the Earth!!! For the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the earth...
