>Something Rather Amazing About Our Universe:
>
>
>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 for
us
>today happened recently to our astronauts and space scientists at
Green
>Belt, Maryland. They were checking the position of the sun, moon, and
>planets out in space where they would be 100 years and 1000 years from
>now. We have to know this so we won't send a satellite, up and have it
>bump into something later on 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 either with 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 found
>there is a day missing in space in elapsed time. They scratched their
>heads and tore their hair. 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 back 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 hasted not to go down about a whole day!"
>
>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 1,000 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: 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?
>
>Our God is rubbing their noses in His Truth!
>
>References: Joshua 10:8 and 12,13; 2 Kings 20:9-11
>
>Give this to everybody you know that may or may not believe in God,
the
>Bible or Christ and let the facts speak for themselves....
>
>When I read this I almost wept - possibly the beginning of a
revolution
>that the world needs. Pray that it won't stop here!
