I can completely understand why some are howling mad @ moonlight

There are several places in Scripture where the moon is described as a “light,” even though, as we know, the moon does not produce any light of its own. Genesis 1:16 describes the creation of the sun and moon this way: “God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night.” Other references to the moon as a light include Isaiah 30:26; Ezekiel 32:7; and Mark 13:24.
Describing the moon as having light is a matter of semantics. The moon is a luminary, even if the light it brings to the night sky does not actually originate with itself. Saying that the moon is a light is an example of phenomenological language, which people use all the time. It is not improper to speak of the “sunrise,” even though the sun does not actually rise (rather, the earth rotates on its axis). In the same way, it is acceptable to designate the moon as a light source. That’s what it appears to be from our perspective. True, without the sun the moon could not function as a luminary, but Genesis 1 does not posit that it would. The two heavenly bodies were created together and described together.
As for the phrase to rule the night in Genesis 1:16, this is an idiomatic expression that simply means the moon is the dominant nocturnal luminary. The fact that the moon is sometimes visible in the daytime sky in no way negates the fact that it dominates the nighttime sky.
The Bible’s description of the moon as the “lesser light” is not meant to classify the moon as a light source similar to the sun. The language is an accurate description of the comparative luminosity of the moon and the sun. The meaning is that moonlight as it reaches the earth is less bright than sunlight, a fact that we all acknowledge.
We do not require the weatherman on TV to use scientifically precise terminology when chatting about the forecast—we do not get confused if he mentions a “sunrise” or “sunset,” even though those are not the technical terms for what’s actually happening in the solar system. We are comfortable with the use of phenomenological language, and we should be able to recognize it in Scripture. God communicated to humanity in a way we could understand and appreciate. The moon does shine, albeit with reflected light, so it is entirely appropriate for the Bible to speak of the moon as a “light.”

yes well said, pity not well done..
Romans 2:13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
1 John 3:18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

rsvp, you are some kind of Bible verse twisting fool, its definitions and obviously you are clueless to the subject of CREATION dude! The earth is ENCLOSED bubba with a firmament (Genesis 1:6-8) and nobody is going ANYWHERE laddy! Got it? The Bible also calls YHWH's SOLID CLEAR encloser (like a mirror) as a 'molten looking glass' (Job 37:18) that is very strong and keeps water from POURING into the earth! I can see you are CLUELESS to CONTEXT of the subject of CREATION dude!
'Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a molten looking glass?'
Its a simple SCIENTIFIC experiment to do a test on the light of the moon, there Einstein! Modern 'science' has been LYING to you and so you defend the PAGANS and call yourself a Christian? REALLY rsvp? Do you want to be as dumb as secularized, school junky David is??? David is 'rabid' in believing the earth spins when the Bible says it does not move and here you are trying to tell us the Bible is NOT really telling us the moon makes its own light? SERIOUSLY DUDE???
I have embarrASSed many atheist and so called 'christain' SECULAR loving friends, just as I would you in person by experiment both you and David rsvp! LOL! Its a simple test! All you need is a temp probe gun OR thermometer in full moon light! Shade one side with big enough piece of flat wood/tin over half a pipe or wooden stick (about 2 feet long), whatever, overhead above a couple of feet of object from moonlight.... Wait about 10 minutes or so and check temp in shade and then in direct moonlight (you heard me right, MOONLIGHT, because it makes its own light!) and you will POSITVELY find EVERYTIME the moonlight is COLDER in temp in direct moonlight than it is in the shade!!! YOUR a LIAR rsvp when it comes to Scripture and you 'work' for satan dude! WAKE UP before your DOOMED to eternal death! Your REMOVING from the Bible WORDS that are INSPIRED dude and you know what Revelation says about removing words from the Bible, then your name is removed from the book of life!
YICKS!
You will have to answer to what you posted here come judgment day rsvp! Would NOT want to be in your shoes!
rsvp CULTLY stated - 'There are several places in Scripture where the moon is described as a “light,” even though, as >>>we know, the moon does not produce any light of its own.<<<
Who is the 'we' rsvp? You have a frog in your pocket that goes wee wee when it jumps? There are many that don't 'jump' onto your SECULAR SINFUL reasoning skills that contradict the Bible dude! No wonder you teach the heresy of continual sinning -ism like David does!

Why do we talk only Christ crucified?
Oh yes, as it provides stumblingblocks and foolishness to the non believer..
1 Corinthians 1:21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
1 Corinthians 2:2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
The words Christ taught us save the soul, the other discussions are the predicted what?
Proud, strife, knowing nothing, disputes of men, all fulfilled, by not CONSENTING TO THE WHOLESOME WORDS OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST..
1 Timothy 6:3 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;
4 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
John 20:30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:
31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

FLAT EARTH TEDDY TO THE RESCUE‼️‼️‼️
Think of it folks, Adam accepts the aid of a FLAT EARTHER, who EVEN rejects the law of gravity, to defend his false ideas‼️‼️
Not only that but Flat Earth Teddy is so strapped for evidence that he must rely on telling lies about those exposing his false beliefs and the false beliefs of his leader Adam

lessons for a no believing mockers who denies every word of Christ we see.
If the eye offends pluck it out is the word david..
Matthew 5:29 And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
if it had been possible they would have plucked their eyes out..
Galatians 4:15 Where is then the blessedness ye spake of? for I bear you record, that, if it had been possible, ye would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
Again if it is possible live peaceably, this is possible and has to be peace and holiness with all men..
Romans 12:18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
Hebrews 12:14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
Regarding offence, we do none is the answer..
Acts 24:16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void to offence toward God, and toward men.
The earth is ENCLOSED bubba with a firmament (Genesis 1:6-8) and nobody is going ANYWHERE laddy! 
Got it? 
The Bible also calls YHWH's SOLID CLEAR encloser (like a mirror) as a 'molten looking glass' (Job 37:18) that is very strong and keeps water from POURING into the earth!
