Has Time Ever Stopped? NASA thinks so.
NASA & THE BIBLE
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.
Forward this to as many people who you believe would think this is equally as cool.
If God could do this then; how much more can he do for us today. If we only believe in his wordContinue the Debate on Creation vs Evolution @ http://www.xanga.com/derekwilson24/593425536/creation-vs-evolution-what-do-you-believe.html

oh shoot, i hate to tell you this, but it’s an urban legend that has been circulating for years already
“Allegedly, this story told by Harold Hill, a consultant in a NASA space program , explains how NASA discovered that there is “a day missing in space over the measurements in elapsed time,” and how this phenomenon was justified by the bible.
However, NASA has denied that Harold Hill was ever one of their consultants. The NASA Public Affairs office in Washington further denies the validity of this supposedly fact, stating ‘There is no truth to the recurring story that NASA uncovered a lost day in the movement of the Earth.’ “
: )Hey!
Ya,:Yes: The part where he said like lighting or fire come’s from his mouth got me thinking
. “Leviathan” means big monster, serpent, or even crocidile. Thanks for commenting! 
Tiddles :wave:
Hope
:rolleyes: I am sure that if there was a “Herold Hill” that NASA probaly would deny it, and if there was proof that the Bible was true, people would try to cover it up, because it doesnt fit into their colored glasses of “Evolution” or whatever beleif people want to belive other than that of the Bible.
derekwilson24, this is an urban legend. Claiming that the truth has been suppressed is a poor excuse to justify belief in an urban legend. You would need proof of suppression in order to suggest suppression – otherwise you’re grasping at straws here.
