You’re missing the point. Christians, according to ecclesiastical order, may be granted permission by the church to perform exorcisms. At present the traditional liturgical churches limit this ministry to specially trained presbyters, but in the early church, when demonaics were much more common, exorcist was actually the most basic and entry level ministry in the Church, to the extent that it was just one notch above laity, with doorkeeper being a promotion for an exorcist (particularly since in areas where the church was persecuted, doorkeepers had the more important responsibility of keeping Pagan informants out of the church).

Well if these special people have never believed in Jesus for God's free gift of Eternal Life salvation. They will be hearing.

Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

Antarctica the ice ring that circumferences the earth.

View attachment 358652
What evidence do you have that Antarctica consists of of an ice-ring circumferencing the earth? People who have been to Antarctica don't seem to believe that. They, and most world maps, say that Antarctica is a continent, surrounding the South Pole.

1, He doesn't look very cold &

He likely isn't, though notice he still has a few layers of warm clothes on keeping him warm. I don't know your experience with cold but I fully understand how it is below freezing there but they are warm without being completely bundled up.

I live in an area that tends to be very dry, the normal humidity tends to be under 20%. As such, when you go out in the cold you don't feel it as much because of the lack of humidity -- particularly compared to when I lived in an area with high humidity and it made you feel both cold and heat much more quickly and severely.

On top of that, they are in the sun. Even in cold weather, bright sunlight does a great job of heating you up; I find it feels amazing when I'm out in the cold here where there is low humidity.

What I see from them is entirely consistent with what I experience where I am, despite it being winter here. You will also notice, they longer they are on the livestreams the more they tend to cover up -- while the lack of humidity really slows down your "absorption" of the cold and the sun heats up any skin it hits, you still increasingly feel the cold as long as you stay out.

2, How do we know he is filming at midnight ?

There are a few things here, depending on how much you trust things like GPS and the witness of all of the people there (both Flat and Globe Earthers). First, before leaving their home areas, all of them turned on GPS trackers, which tracked their travel. You can see the trails where they flew away from their home countries to Chile. Once in Chile, they also shot video and, from what I recalled, live streamed, from that southern most city in Chile -- so you can verify they were all there. Then, all of their tracks show them going almost due South to the ice shelf where they are now, in Antarctica. Last, several of them have taken their phones out to show where the phones say they are -- I even, in a previous post, copied the longitude and latitude shown on the phone from one of the livestreams.

Next, you have the eyewitness testimony from the Flat Earthers in the group. Again, there was no question they were in Chile, just a few days ago. They took off from the airport and using multiple types of compasses, they watched the compasses closely while in flight, and the compasses showed they flew South 4 hours from the bottom tip of Chile. All of the Flat Earthers are positive they are in Antartica.

Last, I'd say take a look at the various livestreams. While I can't absolutely prove that any given time is midnight, what we do know is that for much of Sunday they were live-streaming. During that 24 hour period, at least one or two from the group were almost constantly live-streaming -- and at sometime in that 24 hour period it was definitely midnight. As such, you might as well just believe them that it was midnight when they said it was, as they have nothing to gain and everything to lose from lying about when it was midnight; when during that 24 hour period the sun kept moving around them and shining brightly.

I do not see how they can know that they are in the Antarctic without relying on 'globalists' claiming so.

They can't (or shouldn't) use GPS because GPS relies on satellites orbiting a globe earth. If the earth is flat then GPS must be fake. An old fashioned compass could be tricked while in an aircraft so would be unreliable. An inertial navigation system would work, but how would they know it had not been tampered with? Good old fashioned navigation by looking at the position of the sun and stars (only at night) and knowing the time has the problem that the maths involved is based on the earth being a rotating globe orbiting the sun.

But does any of this matter? Probably not, provided they see 24 hours of daylight. All that is needed is a watch that can keep time for a couple of days.

So where's this 24 hour moon that they are claiming ? And where have all the stars gone ?
They haven't claimed a 24Hr moon, just that they hope to obtain footage of it from someone. From where they are, the moon is not necessarily visible at this time of year.

But that begs the question if not Antarctica, where else could they be that has 24 hours of sun in the sky? Certainly not the North Pole as that would take much more time to fly there.

The simple fact is that the Gleason map is now debunked by this trip.

And where have all the stars gone ?
The same place they always go when the Sun is up.

In other words, they're still there, the sunlight just washes them out so we can't see them.
