While the earth is moving about the Sun, the Sun also is not relatively in the centre of this elipse. It is nearest the earth in January and farthest from the earth in June. Books on astronomy will give these matters. Our purpose is merely to show some of the reasons for ancient mysteries, one of which is the word "God."

The greatest of all studies of the ancients, prior to the Christian era was a study of the heavens. It was also the chief study up to the time of Galileo, (only four centuries ago), since which time the heavens have been studied mainly theologically, or for commercial purposes. In these 400 years, theology has been engaged more in the discussion of doctrines than in the teaching of universal laws. Different nations and peoples of the past, gave different names to the signs, and the planets and to the heavens, so that in this age people are often found opposing each other, over different names which mean the self-same thing. The word "God"seems to be of Saxon origin, from "Godi."Northern people have always been the greatest students of the heavens. In fact, their opportunities are better. We believe that the fundamental laws of the heavens were first gleaned, at or about the north pole, and thence filtered down to us; second-handed. Now while the earth is moving about the Sun, the Sun's relative position changes, and these two factors, expressed in combine on paper, actually form the three letters "G. O. D.,"so that we might well say that this word is written every year in the heavens directly above our heads.

In these movements, year by year, for all time, are contained all things of which we can be materially conscious, and so far as we know, the solar system with Sun in centre is life; light and eternity to us. Whatever lies beyond that, is to us but conjecture, derived from the earth's relative position and observed effects. For instance, while we know little or nothing of the north pole of the heavens, or of the earth's, yet we do know of its magnetic effects, and these effects belong to the science of astrology and not to astronomy.

Just as the word God is formed from the movement of Sun and earth, so, too. it is formed, by putting the two hemispheres together at the north pole, allowing one hemisphere to overlap the other slightly. The Arctic zone would form the central O. and a dividing line at its right would form the other two letters.
