A year is a measure of the time it takes the sun to complete it's spiral from the tropic of Capricorn to the tropic of Cancer, and back to the tropic of Capricorn again. If this period is indeed approximately 365.25 days, which we are told it is, then yes, the seasons would eventually need readjusting (hence a February 29th every 4 years). I don't see how this would cause days to turn into nights, as the sun is still completing an orbit every 24 hours.

The sun appears lower during the Winter because it is further away - remember, in Winter, it is closer to the opposite tropic. In Summer, the converse effect because it is closer to the tropic, so appears higher.
I'm not sure gravity applies to the sun, but even if it does, I believe the sun is smaller than the Earth.
If you don't think you have the intelligence to consider this, I'm not forcing you to consider it.
If I were NSA, do you think I'd be wearing the hat?
I don't necessarily care about Newton's Laws, as they may not apply to the sun. However, I believe the sun is smaller than the Earth.

Book of Jasher, Chapter 88
And when they were smiting, the day was declining toward evening, and Joshua said in the sight of all the people, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon, and thou moon in the valley of Ajalon, until the nation shall have revenged itself upon its enemies. And the Lord hearkened to the voice of Joshua, and the sun stood still in the midst of the heavens, and it stood still six and thirty moments, and the moon also stood still and hastened not to go down a whole day. And there was no day like that, before it or after it, that the Lord hearkened to the voice of a man, for the Lord fought for Israel.
The Real Book of Jasher?
The first step in dealing with the question of authenticity is to simply read the book with an open mind. One cannot effectively investigate the matter unless he is familiar with it. After all, according to Solomon, "He who answers a matter before he hears it, It is folly and shame to him". (Proverbs 18:13). The reader will find that it reads very much like the Bible, except that many passages are replete with details that are not recorded in the Bible.

Any thoughts on China's attempt to land a probe on the moon?
I don't think a geocentric universe necessarily rules out the possibility of a moon landing, but my own opinion is that its just as impossible as landing a probe on the sun - both are lights. I'm fairly sure any moon landing will be used to support the myth that the Earth orbits the sun.
I reckon NASA and their puppeteers are realising far too many people are onto their conspiracy, so they have to foist another hoax to keep the lie alive. Who better to perpetuate the lie than China, one of America's purported enemies?
If China tells the truth about the American moon landing hoax (i.e. no evidence on the moon), people will also believe when China claims "but we really landed a probe on it this time". And if China finds evidence to support the (lie of the) American moon landing ("we found the American flag and equipment"), then the moon landing must have happened, because why would America's enemy lie to support their hoax?

I prefer to believe it has its own unique light. God created two lights, not one light and one reflector.
Don't you find it inconsistent that no matter how much moonlight is concentrated, it never seems to heat? Try doing that with reflected sunlight. Some actually report concentrated moonlight has a cooling effect.
