Biblical Forecasts of Scientific Discoveries
by Dr. Hugh Ross
 
Not only is the Bible filled with the fundamentals of science, but it is as much as 3,000 years ahead of its time. The Bible's statements in most cases directly contradicted the science of the day in which they were made. When modern scientific knowledge approaches reality, the divine accuracy of the scriptures is substantiated. For example:
 
Biblical Statement Science Then...... Science Now
 
Earth is a sphere (Is. 40:22). Earth's a flat disk..... Earth is a sphere
 
Number of stars exceeds a billion (Jer. 33:22)....... Number of stars totals 1,100 Number of stars exceeds a billion
 
Every star is different (1 Cor 15:41)....... All stars are the same. Every star is different.
 
Light is in motion (Job 38:19-20)........ Light is fixed in place. Light is in motion.
 
Air has weight (Job 28:25)....... Air is weightless. Air has weight.
 
Winds blow in cyclones (Eccl. 1:6)....... Winds blow straight. Winds blow in cyclones.
 
Blood is a source of life and healing (Lev. 17:11)...... Sick people must be bled. ..... Blood is a source of life and healing.
 
 
For centuries the conjectures of science also were at odds with Genesis 1, concerning the origin and development of Earth and of life on Earth. However, science has progressed beyond these conjectures and now agrees with Genesis 1 in the initial conditions of Earth, the description of subsequent events, and in the order of these events. The probability that Moses, writing more than 3,400 years ago, would have guessed all these details is less than one in trillions. Below is a partial list of other fundamentals of science explained in the Bible:
 
* conservation of mass and energy (Eccl. 1:9; Eccl. 3:14-15).

* water cycle (Eccl. 1:7; Is. 55:10).

* gravity (Job 26:7; Job 38:31-33).

* Pleiades and Orion as gravitationally bound star groups (Job 38:31). NOTE: All other star groups visible to the naked eye are unbound, with the possible exception of the Hyades.

* effect of emotions on physical health (Prov. 16:24; Prov. 17:22).

* control of contagious diseases (Lev. 13:4546).

* importance of sanitation to health (Lev.; Num. 19: Deut. 23:12-13). control of cancer and heart disease (Lev. 7-19).
 
 
In the crucible of scientific investigation, the Bible has proven invariably to be correct. No other book, ancient or modem, can make this claim; but then, no other book has been written {through men} by God.

Ya 'Got me,' there!!..

 What a load of rubbish. This is a deliberate deception from both ross and his pathetic boot licker,hom. Is. 40:22 only mentions the " CIRCLE OF THE EARTH". Since when has a circle been a sphere? A circle is flat. The writer of Isaiah obviously thought the earth was flat. There are many descriptions in the bible which describe the earth as having edges, corners, foundation pillars. It is impossible to not come to the conclusion that the bible describes the earth as a flat disc. Nowhere does the bible say that the earth is a sphere. The early Catholic church leaders were in no doubt that the earth was flat. It is laughable to claim Is 40:22 as divine accuracy.It is a bible error .If I had the time, I could go through each example of science from the bible and tear it to shreds. The bible has no scientific merit. You are fooling yourself to believe otherwise.
