Time Zones, the Moon, Sabbaths, and Conjunction on the Flat Earth
Question: How are time zones possible on a Flat Earth?
Answer: Time zones are established on the Flat Earth exactly the same way they are on a "Globe" Earth: by the movement of the sun overhead.
Question: How does the Moon point to the Sabbath on a flat earth?
Answer: The moon phases over the flat earth are interpreted the same as they are with the erroneous globe model. The shape of the earth is not relevant to the moon phases. (Note: WLC believes that the moon is self-illuminated.) It is specifically the lunar-solar conjunction that determines New Moon Day and the subsequent Sabbaths and feast days, though, and not the later phases. For more on this, kindly refer to the following:
- How is ''conjunction'' possible on a flat earth?
- Why don’t the moon's primary phases always line up directly with the Sabbath days: 8th, 15th, 22nd, and 29th?

Question: How is "conjunction" possible on a flat earth?
Answer: The luni-solar conjunction is no different on the flat earth than it is on the globe. "Conjunction" simply means "the action or an instance of two or more events or things occurring at the same point in time or space." The sun, because of its slightly faster motion, pulls ahead of the moon by about 12.2° each day. Consequently, it gets so far ahead of the moon that it circles around behind it and overtakes it again after about 29.5 days (12.2° x 29.5 = 360° = a full circle). The luni-solar conjunction is the precise moment in time when the sun is again in line with the moon (the same celestial longitude) before it once again moves ahead of the moon at the beginning of the next lunar cycle. The time of conjunction is often referred to as the astronomical "new moon."
The following video roughly illustrates what happens during the first 24-hours after conjunction on the flat earth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?
