Thought this was pretty amazing and interesting!!
For all the scientists out there, and for all the
students who have a hard time convincing these
people regarding the truth of the Bible, here's
something that shows God's awesome creation, and
that He is still in control.
Did you know that the space program is busy proving
that what has been called "myth" in the Bible is true?
Mr. Harold Hill, President of the Curtis Engine
Company in Baltimore, Maryland, and a consultant in
the space program, relates the following development.
I think one of the most amazing things that God has
done for us today happened recently to our
astronauts and space scientists at Green Belt, Maryland .
They were checking out where the positions of the
sun, moon, and planets would be 100 years and 1,000
years from now.. We have to know this so we won't
send up a satellite and have it bump into something
later on in its orbits.
We have to lay out the orbits in terms of the life
of the satellite and where the planets will be so
the whole thing will not bog down.
They ran the computer measurement back and forth
over the centuries, and it came to a halt. The
computer stopped and put up a red signal, which
meant that there was something wrong with either the
information fed into it or with the results as
compared to the standards.
They called in the service department to check it
out, and they said, 'What's wrong?' Well, they found
there is a day missing in space in elapsed time.
They scratched their heads and tore their hair out..
There was no answer.
Finally a Christian man on the team said, 'You know,
one time I was in Sunday School, and they talked
about the sun standing still.' While they didn't
believe him, they didn't have an answer either, so
they said, 'Show us, '
He got a Bible and went to the book of Joshua where
they found a pretty ridiculous statement for any one
with 'common sense.'
There they found the Lord saying to Joshua,
'Fear them not, I have delivered them into thy hand;
there shall not a man of them stand before Thee.'
Joshua was concerned because he was surrounded by
the enemy! And if darkness fell, they would
overpower them. So Joshua asked the Lord to make the
sun stand still! That's right... 'The sun stood
still and the moon stayed and lasted not to go down
about a whole day!' (Joshua 10:12-13)
The astronauts and scientists said, There is the
missing day! They checked the computers going back
into the time it was written and found it was close
but not close enough. The elapsed time that was
missing back in Joshua's day was 23 hours and 20
minutes . not a whole day.
They read the Bible, and there it was about
[approximately] a day. These little words in the
Bible are important, but they were still in trouble
because if you cannot account for 40 minutes, you'll
still be in trouble 1000 years from now.
Forty minutes had to be found because it can be
multiplied many times over in orbits. As the
Christian employee thought about it, he remembered
somewhere in the Bible where it said the sun went
BACKWARDS.
The scientists told him he was out of his mind, but
they got out the Book and read these words in 2
Kings that told of the following story: Hezekiah, on
his death bed, was visited by the prophet Isaiah who
told him that he was not going to die. Hezekiah
asked for a sign as proof. Isaiah said 'Do you want
the sun to go ahead 10 degrees?'
Hezekiah said, 'It is nothing for the sun to go
ahead 10 degrees, but let the shadow return backward
10 degrees.' Isaiah spoke to the Lord, and the Lord
brought the shadow ten degrees BACKWARD! Ten degrees
is exactly 40 minutes!
Twenty-three hours and 20 minutes in Joshua, plus 40
minutes in Second Kings make the missing day in the
universe! Isn't it amazing?
References: Joshua 10:8 and 12,13 and 2 Kings 20:9-11.
WHO SAYS THAT GOD IS NOT IN CONTROL OF EVERYTHING!!!!
