95 Reasons Why The Genesis Flood Was Global by OLAADEGBU(m): 5:19pm On Apr 26, 2018 |
95 Reasons Why the Genesis Flood Was Global There is little disagreement among scientists that the earth's climate and geology have been drastically altered by water since the beginning of time, but they puzzle over how and when this occurred. Does the great worldwide Genesis Flood explain natural wonders like Grand Canyon? Or was it the result of gradual erosion over eons of time? Use this post as a resource guide to begin your study of the global Genesis Flood! http://www.henrymorris3.com/genesis-flood/ 1 Share

OLAADEGBU: The Genesis Flood During the decade of the 1950s, Drs. Morris and Whitcomb met and began to collaborate on what would become the 1961 release of The Genesis Flood. That book, in the sovereign plan of God, became the catalyst that opened the gates to the pent-up flood of Christian professionals who, like God’s loyal "seven thousand" in the days of Elijah, had not yet bowed their knee to the Baal of evolutionary compromise. A revival among scientifically trained Christians had begun. This post is a compilation of the work of my father and many of those trained research scientists, historians, and writers who have contributed to the growing wealth of knowledge surrounding the universal nature of the Genesis Flood. Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. So the Lord said, "I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them." But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. (Genesis 6:5-8 NKJV) 1 Like 1 Share

http://www.henrymorris3.com/genesis-flood/ The Universality of the Deluge ICR's founder compiled a list of reasons why the Genesis Flood was universal (“The Universality of the Deluge”).* Here is a short commentary he penned as an introduction to this comprehensive study guide: Central to the question of the historicity of the early chapters of Genesis is the question whether the Noahic Flood was global or only regional. A worldwide flood would have cataclysmically changed the entire surface of the globe, including any fossil-bearing sedimentary rocks that may have been formed prior to that time. Consequently, the earth’s present fossiliferous sediments must date largely from the time of their deposition in the waters of the great flood. On the other hand, the modern evolutionary system of earth history denies any such global cataclysm and is based on the assumption of uniformitarianism. The sedimentary rocks and their fossil contents have been interpreted as evidence of a vast series of evolutionary ages extending over billions of years of time, deposited slowly and generally uniformly over the earth as living organisms gradually evolved into higher and higher forms during those ages. The "day-age theory" is the attempt by Bible expositors to accommodate these evolutionary ages within the framework of the six days of creation. The "gap theory" is the attempt by other expositors to accommodate them outside the framework of the six days of creation. Both such theories, if consistent, are associated with the "local flood theory," since a universal flood would have destroyed the sedimentary framework of the geological ages. That is, a universal flood precludes the historicity of the geological ages, and vice versa. If the Genesis flood actually was worldwide, then the strained exegesis associated with the day-age and gap theories becomes unnecessary and harmful. In the tabulation below, therefore, are listed [ninety-five] reasons why the flood should be accepted as a true global cataclysm.

OLAADEGBU: Because early civilizations grew around water sources, they definitely would have flood myths, that's not hard to see at all. This claim of the origin of civilization from that region is fiction. Civilization was ongoing in 4 major places about the period including Mesopotamia (so called Ararat-Babylon), the Nile Valley (Egypt), the Indus Valley (India), and in China. Other places around the world were also developing their cultures but these 4 places saw quick growth because they had higher population, access to water, better agricultural techniques and the development of writing. |
