  2. Biblical cosmology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_cosmology

    Two different models of the process of creation existed in ancient Israel. [15] In the "logos" (speech) model, God speaks and shapes unresisting dormant matter into effective existence and order (Psalm 33: "By the word of YHWH the heavens were made, and by the breath of his mouth all their hosts; he gathers up the waters like a mound, stores the Deep in vaults"); in the second, or "agon ...

  3. Gravity of Earth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_of_Earth

    The gravitational effects of the Moon and the Sun (also the cause of the tides) have a very small effect on the apparent strength of Earth's gravity, depending on their relative positions; typical variations are 2 μm/s 2 (0.2 mGal) over the course of a day.

  4. Gravitational constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_constant

    The gravitational constant appears in the Einstein field equations of general relativity, [4] [5] + =, where G μν is the Einstein tensor (not the gravitational constant despite the use of G), Λ is the cosmological constant, g μν is the metric tensor, T μν is the stress–energy tensor, and κ is the Einstein gravitational constant, a ...

  5. Newton's law of universal gravitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_law_of_universal...

    Gravitational field strength within the Earth Gravity field near the surface of the Earth – an object is shown accelerating toward the surface If the bodies in question have spatial extent (as opposed to being point masses), then the gravitational force between them is calculated by summing the contributions of the notional point masses that ...

  6. Gravimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravimetry

    Geoid undulations based on satellite gravimetry. Gravimetry is the measurement of the strength of a gravitational field.Gravimetry may be used when either the magnitude of a gravitational field or the properties of matter responsible for its creation are of interest.

  7. Geopotential spherical harmonic model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geopotential_spherical...

    However, the situation is in fact the opposite: by observing the orbits of spacecraft and the Moon, Earth's gravitational field can be determined quite accurately. The best estimate of Earth's mass is obtained by dividing the product GM as determined from the analysis of spacecraft orbit with a value for the gravitational constant G ...

  8. Great Architect of the Universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Architect_of_the...

    An illustration of God as the architect of the universe can be found in a Bible from the Middle Ages [6] and the comparison of God to an architect has been used by Christian apologists and teachers. Thomas Aquinas said in the Summa : "God, Who is the first principle of all things, may be compared to things created 'as the architect is to things ...

  9. Kingdom theology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_theology

    Kingdom theology distinguishes between the current world ruled by Satan, the one we live in, and the world ruled by God, his kingdom. [1] Kingdom theology holds the importance of the kingdom of God as a core value and teaches that the kingdom currently exists in the world, but not yet in its fullness.
