Secrets from Beyond The Grave

because He was wore out and tired. The Word says, "Behold, He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep" (Ps. 121:4). The Creator rested to initiate a Sabbath of rest as a pattern to His own people. After departing from Egyptian slavery, the Lord instructed Israel to work six days and to rest ( shabath ) on the seventh day (Exod. 23:12). For centuries of time, the religious Hebrew people have ceased from working on the seventh day (which is Saturday on the Jewish calendar) and have continued this weekly day of rest pattern that the Lord set in motion at Creation. Although spirit beings need no sleep or rest, our earthly physical bodies center on a twenty-four hour time period called a day . The average person sleeps eight hours, works eight hours, and eats two hours, with the remaining time for activity up to the person (usually it's the television or the Internet). We need rest to continue our daily activities. Our bodies are created with a chemical called melatonin . When darkness arrives, this chemical is secreted to help the body to sleep. When the light appears, there is no secretion of this substance.1 The Bible reveals how time is perceived by the Lord. For a thousand years in Your sight But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. --2 Peter 3:8 How can one day be as a thousand years, but a thousand years as one day? If Abraham has been dead for four thousand years, it only seems like a few days. There may also be an interesting scientific explanation as to the time mysteries in heaven. Light travels at 186,400 miles per second. The earth is a globe that is about 25,000 miles in circumference. Light can circle the planet about 7.2 times in one second. The prophet Ezekiel described angelic creatures that were moving like "lightning" (Ezek 1:13-14). This speed "as lighting" suggests that an angel moving with such speed could travel around the planet more than seven times in one second. One of the theories of Albert Einstein was the special theory of relativity, which stated that no objects would travel faster than the speed of light. Concerning the theory of time, it was called the time dilation theory, wherein the faster an object travels, the slower its perception of time becomes. Thus if an object could suddenly travel the speed of light, the perception of time would become zero, as perception of time slows down infinitely. Space becomes the second important aspect of time travel. According to Einstein's theory, once an object reached the speed of light, the object's size will become zero, and it will disappear.2 Amazing Research on Light Are like yesterday when it is past, And like a watch in the night. --Psalm 90:4

According to an article that was released June 4, 2000, Dr. Lijun Wang of the NEC Research Institute in Princeton claimed to have broken the speed of light. A special chamber had
