This story came was originally published in a mid west news paper may years ago we would have not made the advances we have as a nation in the space program had it not been for this,enjoy.
With all of the calculations for reaching Mars this week. Here is an interesting story.
This is truly worth reading…
This is one of the most interesting things I have heard in a while.
Hope you think so too.
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
GreenBelt, 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 lapsed time. They
scratc! hed 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 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 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 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.
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Prov 3:5-6 (KJV)

It Is Past Time To Pay Attention
What a difference personal responsibility makes as a child of sixty’s homes were lost due to financial difficulty, loss of income, poor health you name it and the U.S. Government was not responsible for your miss fortune. Banks were responsible to their depositors for the proper use and safeguard of the funds entrusted to them. People never received mailed unsolicited credit as a line of unsecured debit; rather you had to have enough money in your personal account to cover the line of credit.
In the past forty plus years, Banks and lenders have become irresponsible and people have become greedy. For months now, warning after warning regarding the economic future of America laid out daily and the greed of people has made them too blind to see. IT IS TIME TO PAY ATTENTION … it may be too late for some.
A roof over your head is the issue here not keeping up with the neighbor across the street or the one next door. In case you missed it, the U.S. Government is now the conservator for both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Not a big deal you say think again … “The downside is that American taxpayers, as was implicit in the business model of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, may be on the hook for as much as $200 billion to bail out what were essentially private mortgage contracts.”
Our taxes had at work; do not think we get off the hook free. Government oversight is necessary of that there is no doubt however, the oversight needs to no unique access with executives walking away with multi-million dollar paychecks.
Here is a better idea. Close down the two mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. There are four-hundred million legal Americans in the U.S. approximately. Have the Government provide each with one million dollars cash no strings attached other than you the individual insuring is responsibility for your home from the date you accept the money.
So, what does this mean to the taxpaying American public? Let us do the math…
$200,000,000,000.00 – 400,000,000.00 = $1,996,000,000,000.00 savings to our government
Liquidate all the assets of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, estimated in the trillions of dollars. Now, charge each American Citizen a $500.00 processing fee for the 1000,000,000.00 they received.
So, what does this mean to the taxpaying American public? Let us do the math…
$500.00 * 400,000,000 Americans = $200,000,000,000.00
Sound or look confusing not really, look at it this way:
1. Cost to the government (tax payer) $400,000,000.00 but not really
2. Liquidate Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac $5,300,000,000,000.00
3. Subtract $5,300,000,000,000.00 - $400,000,000.00 = $5,296,000,000,000.00
United We Stand and Divided We Fall the choice is yours to make...
