    Can a Christian believe in Noahs flood not being Universal?

    Genesis 7 states that the 'waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth...all...were covered'. And that' 'all flesh...died'; so the Flood was global and covered the whole Earth, killing everything that breathed air. Moreover, 85% of the rocks on Earth's surface are sedimentary, meaning they...

    I live in the southeast US. I am partial to this area because of the weather, history, friendliness and cost. I am 2 hours from the mountains and 2 hours from the beach. Touristy places like Florida are south of here and Washington DC is north of here. There is so much to see in the US, it...

    The Bible does not place any restrictions on age differences. Most scholors think there was a significant age difference between Mary and Joseph for example. God being the center of the marriage is the important part! :)

    Well I think the Jesus quote from Matthew referred to His impending death on the cross, so they don't apply to an event that has yet to occur. May I ask why you are a pre tribulation believer when there are numerous Bible verses discussing 1) the blessings of tribulations or 2) the guarentee...

    I think I confused you, 70 weeks is not found in Revelation, Matthew or Leviticus 23 (Feast Days). It's logical to postulate He will fulfill the remaining Feast Days the same way He did previously, within days. So Feast of Trumpets (rapture), 10 days later, Day of Atonement (2nd Coming), 5...

    Yes, good point the feasts were convocations (assemblies) for rehersals, and so were the events prior to the feasts. God's people left slavery (sin) for the promised land (heaven) but first went through water (Jesus) and later guided by fire (Holy Spirit). The patterns in the Bible are very...

    This is deep, but He did say he is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and end, first and last , so similarity at the beginning and end makes sense :). Also the timing of the feasts cast serious doubt on a rapture years before His second coming, since He 'fulfilled' the spring feasts during His...

    How old is the earth?

    Natural phenomenon cap the age of the Earth to 'no greater than' values. For example, the rate of accumulation of salt into the oceans means that the oceans cannot be older than 60 million years, otherwise if the oceans were older than 60 million years they would be far saltier than the Dead...

    How old is the earth?

    The idea of dating the earth via the Bible has been heavily researched. Bishop Ussher did this centuries ago; the Earth was created around 4004 BC according to the Bible.

    How old is the earth?

    The average size of adult dinosaurs was the size of a modern sheep. Some adult dinosaurs were large compared to modern adults humans. We don't know how tall people were in the pre flood world; their size could have also been very large. But God could have brought a baby version of a large...

    How old is the earth?

    we candeduce the age of the Earth based on the geneaolgies in the Bible and other limiting factors in science. Answers in Genesis and ICR are ministries that have provided tons of scientific evidence for a young Earth.

    How old is the earth?

    the phrase 'in the beginning' is a temporal reference point for us, the receivers of His word. He is beyond time since he created time, space and matter in the beginning.
