canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons?
(Psa 19:1-4) The heavens declare the glory of
God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto
night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech
nor language, where their voice is not heard.
Their line is gone out through all the earth, and
their words to the end of the world. In them hath
he set a tabernacle for the sun,

you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses
shall every word be established.
(Mat 18:16) But if he will not hear thee, then
take with thee one or two more, that in the
mouth of two or three witnesses every word
may be established.
WITNESS #1
(2Ti 3:15-17) And that from a child thou hast known the
holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto
salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All
scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable

righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect,
throughly furnished unto all good works.
WITNESS #2
(Heb 1:1-2) God, who at sundry times and in
divers manners spake in time past unto the
fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days
spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath

made the worlds;
WITNESS #3
(Rom 1:18-20) For the wrath of God is revealed from
heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of
men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that
which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God
hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him
from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being
understood by the things that are made, even his eternal
power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

(Gen 1:14-16) And God said, Let there be

earth: and it was so. And God made two great
lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the
lesser light to rule the night: he made the
stars also.

Dying Stars
Like celestial chemical factories, stars spend their lives fusing hydrogen and
helium atoms to forge heavier elements. In death, extremely massive stars
explode in a supernova, blasting their chemical creations into space, and seeding
the universe for a new generation of stars to grow. Meanwhile, medium mass
stars like our Sun puff up to become red giants before sloughing off their outer
layers, like snakes shedding their skin, sending newly-formed elements and
molecules floating slowly off into space.

supernova
(Job 25:5) Behold even to the moon,
and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not
pure in his sight.
(Job 15:15) Behold, he putteth no trust
in his saints; yea, the heavens are not
clean in his sight.
(Gen 1:1) In the beginning
God created the heaven and
the earth.

(Gen 1:14-16) 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. And God made two great
lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the
lesser light to rule the night: he made the
stars also.
(Eze 28:13-14) Thou hast been in Eden the
garden of God; every precious stone was thy
covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the
beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the
emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the
workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was
prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth;
and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy
mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in
the midst of the stones of fire.
(Jer 4:23-26) I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was
without form, and void; and the heavens, and
they had no light. I beheld the mountains, and,
lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. I
beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the
birds of the heavens were fled. I beheld, and, lo,
the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the
cities thereof were broken down at the presence
of the LORD, and by his fierce anger.
