The physical SUN
Duane:
I once heard a message where scientist tried to disprove the Bible re; God haltingthe rotation of the earth at different times in the scripture
and it got down to a 15 or so sec.gap in time. Then came a scriptural reference for it so that ALL the stoppages of the sun equalled
EXACTLY 24 hours and tht is why we have a "leap year" every 4 years to make up the time God stopped the movement of the sun.
So EVERYTHING is literal and God is laughing at our ignorance of His power and greatness, again!

Drew,
How does your theory of the Sun revolving around the Earth prove that the Sun literally "rises" and "sets"? Have you forgotten the the Earth is a sphere? Or perhaps you still think it's flat like a pancake? How can the Sun literally "rise" and literally "set" if it is continually revolving around the circular Earth?

Pearl Jams song " Black " has a line " All five horizons revolve around the sun " so, that's what I'm going with and don't try to change my mind.

You've got me there, Daywalker, then it definitely comes back to ones perspective. I have to say, though, the theory does't belong to me. I read this in a Reconstructionist mag., which I can not remember the name of, whose founder was RJ Rushdoony. The article didn't have so much to do with rising and setting as with the earth being the center of our universe. I really never expected my post to garner this much discussion. Now I will have to go back and see if I can locate that article. Thinkers abound in this forum and this is a good exercise for me that I'm not being let off the hook. I'll get back with you after I do my research.

I'm sorry guys but, I'm going to take a break from the forums for awhile. Thanks for all the ones who took the time to help me in here. I can't handle this type of stuff.
