Tha Acton Pros Wednesday December The clergy By Rev Pentecostal THF SUN STOOD Did you know that the apace program la busy proving Ihnt what has been called in myth In the Bible IS true Mr HaroMHUl of Curtis Co Baltimore Md and a consultant In the apace related development I think that one of the most amazing things that God has for today happened recently to our astronauts and apace scientists at Belt Md They wore checking the position of the sun moon and planets out In space they would be liw and years from now Wo have to know this so we don t send a satellite up and have it bump Into something later on In Its orbits We have to lay out the orbit In terms of the life satellite and where the planets will be so that the whole thing will not bog down ran the computer measurement back and forth over the centuries and it came to a halt The computer stopped and It put up a red signal which meant that there was something wrong cither In Ihe info fed into it or with the results compared with tho standards They called service department to check It out and they said it perfect The IBM head of operations asked What Is wrong Well we have found there Is a day missing in space in the elapsed time rhey scratched their heads and pulled their hair There was no answer One religious fellow on the team sold You know one time I was In Sunday School and they talked about the sun standing still They did not believe him but they t have any other answer ao they said show us He got a Bible and turned back to Joshua whore thoy found a seemingly rtdlculous statement to the natural mind There they found tho 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 could overpower him So Joshua asked the lord to make the sun stand still That right The sun stood still and the moon stayed and hasted not to go down about a whole day The Spaceman said There Is the missing day Well they checked computers going back and found it was close enough The elapsed time that was missing back In Joshua time was and minutes not a whole day Joshua 10 They read the Bible and there it about approximately a whole day These little words in the Bible arc important But were still in trouble because If you cannot account for minutes you 11 be in trouble years from now Forty minutes had to bo found because It multiplies times over In Well this religious follow remembered somewhere in the Bible where It said the sun went backwards Theapacemcn told him ho was out of his mind But got the Bible and rend these words In Kings on wan visited by the lYophct Isaiah who told him that ho was not going to die did not believe him and asked tor sign as proof Isaiah asked Do you want the sun to go ahead degrees It la nothing for the sun to go ahead 10 degrees but lot the shadow turn backward degrees Ten degrees Is exactly mtnutos So and 20 minutes In
