Study: Deep beneath the earth, more water than in all the oceans combined

“In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened.” NKJV Gen 7:11

God said it and I believe it.

[ForAmerica]

..”and THE FOUNTAINS OF THE DEEP WERE BROKEN UP.” Genesis 7:11. Much if not most of the waters in Noah’s flood came from UNDER the earth.

There was also some sort of water canopy in the atmosphere, like a layer of water or something. It says "the waters above".

Wow, thanks Theoria.

Anyway, this tired old BS crops up once in a while, so much so it has its own keyword.

I didn't see "The Core," but loved the 1959 Disney movie "Journey to the Center of the Earth."

Nobody could speak as well as James Mason. Murdock on the "A-Team" did a good impersonation though.

No problem. I just hate the “no rain before the flood” argument because people cite to it with absolute moral certainty despite that there is no conclusive support one way or the other from the text. I agree with you that I actually don’t care theologically whether there was or was not, but I do care about being faithful to the text.

Rainbows post flood versus pre flood? Again, I think either reading can be justified from the text.

I hate that I can’t trust rainbows anymore.

Well, the Bible says in (NIV)Genesis 1, 6-8:
And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” 7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. 8 God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.

“I hate that I can’t trust rainbows anymore.”

LOL!

Nothing like walking down a city street and your toddler sees all the rainbows in the window and says “Daddy - can we go in there!?” only to find out its a gay bar.

all the oceans combined

How it would look if you combined all the oceans into one 860-mile-wide drop (with a volume of about 333m cubic miles) and were able to suspend it weightless over Kansas:

“To me, this is a confirmation of the Biblical flood.”

In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. (Gen 7:11)

...the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up...

And earlier in Genesis, we read,

But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground. (Gen 2:6)

Science is at last confirming what we already knew if we were to believe what is written in God’s Word...

I've seen that before. Very cool. Thanks for posting it. It actually does make me worry just a tiny bit about earth's water supply.

[LibWhacker]

Thanks, I’m going to take a look at some of those this weekend when I have a little more time.

They will just need to dig a well a bit deeper then planned.....

” The oceans weren’t perhaps the product of icy comets as earlier research theorized, but were the result of geological and tectonic activity that drove water to the surface.”

More settled science out the window.

[LibWhacker]

LOL, hillarious. I’m snaggin’ it.

Gen 7: 11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day all the fountains of the great deep burst open, and the floodgates of the sky were opened. 12 The rain ]fell upon the earth for forty days and forty nights.

It explains both where the water came from and where it went. It came from "the fountains of the great deep" AND from "the floodgates (networks) of the heavens."

The answer to California’s water problems.

Give every Californian a spoon and tell them to start digging.....................

Jacobsen is so full of guano! He is no scientist, he is an alarmist. I don’t believe Science today, it is agenda and money driven.

[Raycpa]

Scientists don’t use logical fallacies.
