Noah's Ark

[Tintin]

No, honey -- you are "drifting" further into error with this "worldy" thinking...

The continents are not floating around the ocean like lillypads --- the oceans have [ hard rock ] land bottoms...

The continents have not moved ( far / much ). The water level has changed.

Pangea is not true.


Watch this seminar...

Don't be too hasty. The theory that there was a continental drift long ago was first proposed by a Christian pastor. He believed that during the worldwide flood, the one land mass was broken into many pieces and floated away from each other. Then, over many years (not millions or billions etc.) they came to rest where they are. Unfortunately, evolutionists have hijacked this belief for their own agenda. Before the flood there was about 30% water and 70% land. After the flood, those ratios of water and land were reversed. See articles below:

Noah didnt do anything but pray

the animals migrated to all the continents.

 

[Therapon]

hey, I just got through reading Genesis chapters 1-11 and I also had the same question until I got to a part of the genealogy. Now, I believe that the earth (as in ground, not the planet) Broke up into it various continents.

Chapter 10 verse 25

25 And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.

Now here is someone who did his homework. <smile>

You need to believe the Bible
then say I know it is true, then ask God how did it happen so that it is true....

ok
since the word is truth and since we do have animals then obviously all the land was connected at one time...

the water that came down was ice and snow and piled oup on the north and south pole
ocean level was loser
animals walked to all islands including madagascar

over the decades the snows melted and oceans rose cutting of continents

also the great erathquake of peleg sunk the bridges across russia and america and africa to australia and new sealand

it did happen

an we werent told how
so
dont worry about it
get a relationship with God every day
pray every morning to be born again.

 

[Tintin]

Somehow I missed this. You are very correct here. There was one that occurred between Gen 1:1 and 1:2 and then the one of Gen 6-8.

In bold: Wrong! Very, very wrong! Pure and utter speculation. Nothing more.

 

[2Thewaters]

How am I so smart?
I am not

I trust in God

he said to read the Bible
so I did

now that you asked how the animals came to be

God vrought this verse to mind I read long long long ago



Gen 10:25 And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.

Now, I understand
this was after noah
the earth was not devided
then
and earthquake
and then the earth was divided

simple eh?

Now you can never answer these questions unless you READ the Bible

most ministers who have not read the Bible and go to school for four years to learn how to twist the Bible according to their denomination,s would jsut say
oh, Noahs story is a fable
as long as you pay tithe and give us your money dont worry about it

well
Jesus says
Noah did happen

Luke 17:26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
Luke 17:27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
Luke 17:28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
Luke 17:29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
Luke 17:30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.
Luke 17:31 In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.

wow

Jesus believed the ark story and he also said it would happen again ust lke that!


2 Pet 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
2 Pet 3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
2 Pet 3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
2 Pet 3:6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
2 Pet 3:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

Did you see that?

if you dont believe in the ark story peter the apostle calls you IGNORANT!

so the catholic priests who told me its just a story are IGNORANT!
the PETER calls the priests of today IGNORANT

wow

you know what
better read your Bible and you wont need to ask these questions...God will give you the ansers

thanks for the question I learned a lot!
i didnt know this 20 minutes ago but now I do!

Psa 119:98 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.
Psa 119:99 I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.

so if YOU read YOUR bible and click on each word and see what it means, then yo will be wiser than your teachers too!

So light never refracted before the flood?

Notice how a Rainbow is directly opposite to where the sun is...

It never rained before the flood. A mist came up from the ground to water the earth. Genesis 2: 5 last half of verse & 6

5 last half -For the Lord God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to till the ground;
6 - but a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground.

I promise I'm not making this stuff up.

Yeah sure. The universe and the earth are how old?

Actually it was a happy happening. My church gives out the pamphlets for the BREAD (Bible Reading Enriches Any Day) program. It schedules daily reading so that a person can read their Bible in a year. This year they put it in chronological order, so I got really excited about it. I am currently in Job 37

Ah I see, I didn't realise it didn't rain before the flood.

Kinda Makes my point redundant in your eyes lol

Hello people, I've decided to make a new post because I feel that it's good to have a discussion.

I'm sure that you are all aware of the bible story of Noah and the Ark that God commanded him to make and herd 2 of each animal onto the Ark, for God was to cleanse the world of sinners. But what's stricken me recently is when, Noah had to huddle on 2 of each species onto the ark so that when the waters cease, Noah can release the animals into the wild so that they can repopulate the plains. We all know that the Ark was ( after 40 days and 40 nights ) resting on the mountains of Ararat, but, was the flood global? if it was, then how do we explain the animals that are on Australia? such as the marsupials, the birds in the amazon , the polar bears in the cold climates of the world and many more.

If Noah did indeed rest the ark in Turkey, then how do you explain the animals on the other continents if Noah released the animals to the 1 continent. This never ever made sense to me, but I would appreciate some thought taken into this.

Thanks guys! Have a blessed day! )0(

Its a good point; maybe I'll use that. But there are also other information to consider you can add to that thought.

My view is it simply was not world wide. But it was a flood that covered only were the Giants were: that being the reason for the flood to begin with .

The giants where not in all the world at the time. It was only later " again after those days ", that the sons of God came down and took more, wives. But God had said He would never again destroy the earth by water.


So Those giants wear dealt with in war through Israel , when God said go kill these people or that people, they had already been contaminated with the seed of the fallen angels and heathen practices ..


But, side note, There was a global flood Before, Noah's flood, before his time that Peter talks about, and that God in Genesis 1, and Jeremiah 4, talks about in detail , along with part of Revelation 12.etc .


There was a destruction that God carried out, because of Satan's rebellion. And no one, not even a man aboard an ark survived that one.

Here is something to think about. God destroyed all corruption in the flood. If corruption wasn't found in certain areas of the globe, then destruction didn't happen in that area, but I don't think that's altogether true, for I think that the entire earth was full of corruption.

My belief is that the entire earth was flooded and all land masses were together at that time. There is a verse in scripture to contemplate. After the flood there was a division in the earth.

Genesis 10:25 (KJV)
[SUP]25 [/SUP]And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.

I should have read the entire post before posting what I did. It was already mentioned several times. Sorry.

 

[john832]

Roughly 6,000 years.

So, you are telling me that God created a universe that is only six thousand years old? Yet by any method of measurement available it APPEARS to be about 14.5 BILLION years old? Kinda violates the scripture...

Tit 1:2 in hope of eternal life which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began,

Jas 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.

But His creation is devious and deceptive? A six thousand year old creation that appears to be MUCH, MUCH OLDER violates the character of the Creator.

 

[dcontroversal]

Science is not cramming anything ... only reporting evidence from observation,testing,investigating, and inductive reasoning.
Based on what is known about the earth and tectonic plates, there is no reason to think that continental drift occurred rapidly over a few years.

More like circular reasoning and false practices such as carbon dating which dated an aluminum coke can at like 1457 years old. God said faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God....not some foolish scientific study that is based upon flawed reasoning. I guess you think you came from a monkey or an electrified pool of sludge? Answer me this...

WHO AUTHORIZED THE FIRST DEGREES AND WHAT WOULD QUALIFY THEM TO DO SO?

But one that is not - does not.

If Carbon Dating is so inaccurate why do christians tout it as a means to validate the Dead Sea scrolls?

Couldn't answer that. I don't buy it, probably the same reason there is every flavor of (salvation) found within the ranks of Christianity...I.E. Ignorance of the facts!
