but here you are shooting off your mouth
JUUUUST KIDDING
LOL
The point is, people were in the Americas before the estimated era of Noah.
There are parts that are historical.
There is poetry, law and several other disciplines.
All of which points to Jesus.
The catch is to understand what you are reading.
I was trying to do the right thing ... doesn’t that count? ;-)
About five thousand years ago, it seems that a large meteor impacted the Indian Ocean, generating a massive tsunami that would have flooded the region, including Mesopotamia, and also caused weeks of extraordinary rainfall. The meteor left the 18 mile diameter Burckle Crater in the floor of the Indian Ocean. This could be the basis for the story of Noah, with the identification of Mt. Ararat in Iran becoming more plausible.
it doesnt even register
LOL!
People who believe, should believe.
The sad part is that a lot of people don't believe God created or the account of Noah.
It amazes me the disconnect between Genesis 1 and everything else.
Including the part about the animals?
Seems Noah woulda mentioned something in the scriptures about a little 'bump' just prior to the massive flooding...And of course he just outright lied about it raining for so long...
I doubt it. But it's a fun story to read.
yep.
Matt.24.37 As were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Matt.24.38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark,
Luke.3.36 the son of Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Shem, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech,
Luke.17.26 Just as it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of Man.
Luke.17.27 They were eating and drinking and marrying and being given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.
Heb.11.7 By faith Noah, being warned by God concerning events as yet unseen, in reverent fear constructed an ark for the saving of his household. By this he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.
1Pet.3.20 because they formerly did not obey, when God’s patience waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were brought safely through water.
2Pet.2.5 if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly;
Why bother being a Christian if you don’t believe the flood of Noah because Jesus is a liar by implication.
me too.
Myth.
A brontosaurus that lived 900 years is how big and a brontosaurus that was a few years is how big?
you are free to reject it. i am free to believe it. it won’t be my loss.
I thought we agreed to stop spreading the rumor that I was responsible for waste management in the ark.
And yes, it was a thankless job-—errr, not that I was present, of course.
