WEBVTT 00:05.850 --> 00:09.150 Welcome to our seminar part six of our creation seminar. 00:09.270 --> 00:09.970 My name is Kent Hovind. 00:10.050 --> 00:12.810 I do seminars all over the world on creation, evolution, and dinosaurs. 00:13.270 --> 00:16.450 So far in this series we've covered a whole variety of topics like how old is 00:16.450 --> 00:20.770 the earth, where do dinosaurs fit in, what about cavemen, the lies in the 00:20.770 --> 00:22.850 textbooks, and the effects of the evolution teaching. 00:23.190 --> 00:24.430 Tonight we are going to talk about the flood. 00:24.750 --> 00:27.150 What caused the flood in the days of Noah? 00:27.490 --> 00:29.850 How could the world completely flood? 00:30.050 --> 00:31.710 Where does the ice age fit into the Bible? 00:32.350 --> 00:35.210 Christians say if the Bible says the earth is only 6,000 years old, what about the 00:35.210 --> 00:35.650 ice age? 00:35.710 --> 00:36.890 And what froze the mammoths? 00:37.330 --> 00:41.310 The big, huge, hairy, hippy elephants that are found frozen are like this mammoth 00:41.310 --> 00:41.710 backbone. 00:41.790 --> 00:43.950 This is coalified from here, from South Florida. 00:44.730 --> 00:45.970 Mammoths are found all over the world. 00:46.070 --> 00:47.630 We've got a mammoth jaw here, a lot of mammoths. 00:47.810 --> 00:48.750 There's a baby mammoth tusk. 00:49.130 --> 00:52.870 This is part of one that was frozen in Siberia. 00:53.170 --> 00:54.770 Actually in northern Russia. 00:56.890 --> 00:57.950 What froze the mammoths? 00:57.990 --> 01:01.990 How can you freeze an elephant standing up with food still in his teeth? 01:02.790 --> 01:04.970 Doesn't it take millions of years to form Grand Canyon? 01:05.370 --> 01:08.350 We are going to cover some of those things tonight in the Hovind Theory. 01:09.130 --> 01:11.430 And we call it the Hovind Theory because we don't want anybody else to get the 01:11.430 --> 01:12.030 blame for it. 01:12.650 --> 01:14.730 I have read many books by other people. 01:15.310 --> 01:18.390 A book that strongly influenced me many years ago was the Biblical Flood and the 01:18.390 --> 01:18.890 Ice Epic. 01:19.390 --> 01:22.730 How Patton thinks that an ice meteor struck the earth or we went through the 01:22.730 --> 01:23.890 tail of a comet one or the other. 01:24.190 --> 01:26.090 Anyway, ice got dumped on earth from outer space. 01:26.190 --> 01:27.490 This was a good book many years ago. 01:31.070 --> 01:35.030 Walt Brown, PhD in Physics, Air Force Academy Colonel, taught at the Air Force 01:35.030 --> 01:36.470 Academy for years, a physics professor. 01:36.890 --> 01:40.050 Excellent book on what caused the flood. 01:40.150 --> 01:41.990 I differ with Walt Brown on a couple of minor things. 01:42.070 --> 01:42.850 We have talked many times. 01:42.910 --> 01:43.450 A good friend of mine. 01:43.530 --> 01:44.450 I highly recommend his work. 01:44.850 --> 01:47.310 A few little minor differences, but I think that would be a good one if 01:47.310 --> 01:52.350 you want to get more information to spark your interest on studying this topic. 01:52.610 --> 01:53.510 What caused the flood? 01:53.550 --> 01:56.170 Is it possible to rain that much to completely cover the world? 01:57.030 --> 01:58.130 Where did all that water go? 01:58.410 --> 02:00.750 If there is a flood, where is the evidence of Noah's flood? 02:00.830 --> 02:01.890 Where is all that water? 02:02.310 --> 02:03.730 We are going to talk about three things tonight. 02:03.970 --> 02:06.110 We are going to talk about the creation a little bit. 02:06.150 --> 02:07.410 What we covered on seminar part 2. 02:07.630 --> 02:09.830 We have to understand what the original creation was like. 02:10.590 --> 02:11.230 And then the curse. 02:11.310 --> 02:12.430 God put a curse on this world. 02:12.930 --> 02:16.010 This world that we are living in today is a junkyard compared to what Adam and Eve 02:16.010 --> 02:16.410 lived in. 02:16.770 --> 02:18.110 And then the catastrophe. 02:18.650 --> 02:20.850 The flood completely wiped out the world. 02:21.070 --> 02:22.710 The original creation was very different. 02:23.050 --> 02:26.210 I don't think it is possible for us to understand what it used to be like 6,000 02:26.210 --> 02:27.450 years ago when God made the world. 02:27.690 --> 02:31.210 The Bible says in the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 02:31.830 --> 02:34.450 And the skeptics I debate at universities say, wait, I don't believe Genesis. 02:34.470 --> 02:35.290 How can we trust Genesis? 02:35.790 --> 02:36.470 Who wrote that book? 02:36.510 --> 02:38.030 And they will say there are four different authors. 02:38.610 --> 02:43.230 The skeptics will say, they call it the J-E-P-D for Yahwist, Eloist, Priestly, 02:43.330 --> 02:43.710 and Deuterist. 02:43.990 --> 02:47.310 And they will point out that there are very different styles of writing in the 02:47.310 --> 02:47.770 book of Genesis. 02:48.450 --> 02:52.170 Genesis chapter 1, if you look through Genesis 1, it says, and God said, 02:52.230 --> 02:52.830 and God did. 02:52.950 --> 02:56.050 It uses the word God 31 times in chapter 1. 02:56.390 --> 03:00.630 When you come to chapter 2, verse 4, and all through chapter 2 it uses the 03:00.630 --> 03:01.750 phrase Lord God. 03:02.730 --> 03:04.530 It is always Lord God instead of God. 03:04.830 --> 03:06.430 It is a totally different style of writing. 03:06.570 --> 03:07.510 It is a different name for God. 03:07.830 --> 03:09.730 And the skeptics say there are four different authors to Genesis. 03:10.070 --> 03:10.950 So we can't trust it. 03:10.990 --> 03:13.810 It was written by priests for political gain or something like that. 03:14.130 --> 03:15.910 Well, actually, they are partly right. 03:16.950 --> 03:20.050 There are actually ten different authors to Genesis, not four. 03:20.490 --> 03:24.610 Genesis was written by ten different people, all of them first-hand eyewitness 03:24.610 --> 03:25.050 accounts. 03:25.830 --> 03:29.910 The Bible says in Mark chapter 12, have you not read in the book of Moses how 03:29.910 --> 03:32.350 in the bush God spake unto him saying, I am the God of Abraham. 03:32.530 --> 03:35.210 Here the Bible clearly tells us that Exodus, where it talks the story about the 03:35.210 --> 03:37.090 burning bush, is written by Moses. 03:37.790 --> 03:38.930 Exodus is the book of Moses. 03:39.030 --> 03:41.170 Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy all written by Moses. 03:41.750 --> 03:43.850 But Genesis was only the editor, the collector. 03:44.130 --> 03:45.650 He did not actually write Genesis. 03:47.110 --> 03:50.990 Moses edited, put it together, probably from ten existing clay tablets. 03:51.950 --> 03:54.970 And there is a great footnote in Henry Morris' Defender's Bible, if you get that. 03:55.010 --> 03:58.150 I love Henry Morris and I sell his Defender's Bible and highly recommend it. 03:58.350 --> 04:00.810 We do put a disclaimer with it because of a few things I disagree with him. 04:01.490 --> 04:03.790 I am selling it so I have a right to disagree if I like. 04:04.010 --> 04:05.770 So I think there is a lot of meat here. 04:05.830 --> 04:07.530 You have to eat the meat and spit out the bones is our philosophy. 04:07.950 --> 04:10.690 But his footnote here in Genesis chapter 2 verse 4 is excellent. 04:11.010 --> 04:12.990 About the ten, what are called the Teledoths. 04:13.290 --> 04:14.870 The ten different authors of Genesis. 04:15.390 --> 04:18.470 The phrase that you can see where the Genesis is divided up is very clear. 04:18.750 --> 04:23.050 If you look at Genesis chapter 2 verse 4 it says, these are the generations of. 04:24.210 --> 04:27.550 Genesis 5, 1 starts off, these are the generations of. 04:27.750 --> 04:30.050 Genesis 6, 9, these are the generations of. 04:30.290 --> 04:32.530 The phrase appears ten different times in Genesis. 04:33.190 --> 04:34.770 Moses actually edited it. 04:35.070 --> 04:37.770 Probably God wrote Genesis chapter 1 and gave it to Adam. 04:38.070 --> 04:39.210 Adam wrote a few chapters. 04:39.870 --> 04:42.730 Everybody kept adding to this and by the time you get through the whole creation 04:42.730 --> 04:47.530 story, Moses put it all together and put it into one edited form called the book of 04:47.530 --> 04:47.910 Genesis. 04:48.630 --> 04:52.650 So if you look at the phrase, these are the generations of in chapter 5 verse 1 is 04:52.650 --> 04:53.830 found in chapter 6 verse 9. 04:54.110 --> 04:55.430 These are the generations of Noah. 04:55.550 --> 04:56.690 That is Noah signing off. 04:56.830 --> 04:58.170 Noah actually wrote part of Genesis. 04:58.650 --> 05:00.610 The sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth wrote part. 05:00.970 --> 05:04.190 And you can look through the footnote in Henry Morris Defender's Bible and see all 05:04.190 --> 05:07.210 the ten times where it uses the phrase, these are the generations of. 05:07.430 --> 05:08.370 Terah wrote part of it. 05:08.670 --> 05:09.650 Ishmael wrote part of it. 05:09.990 --> 05:11.990 As you are reading through Genesis, there are some chapters that look like 05:11.990 --> 05:13.550 they are just unrelated. 05:14.290 --> 05:15.750 Like who cares about the Dukes of Edom? 05:15.830 --> 05:18.510 It has all these dukes in there and it looks like the chapter is kind of stuck in 05:18.510 --> 05:18.750 the middle. 05:19.350 --> 05:20.710 Well, that is a different guy writing. 05:21.970 --> 05:23.550 There are ten different people writing this book. 05:23.630 --> 05:24.670 So yes, you can trust Genesis. 05:24.830 --> 05:26.610 It is all eyewitness accounts. 05:27.250 --> 05:31.490 Now it is true that the Babylonian legend was written down before Moses wrote 05:31.490 --> 05:31.810 Genesis. 05:32.550 --> 05:36.150 I just answered a letter today on our call in radio show, Truthradio.com, 05:36.170 --> 05:38.230 on the air live every day from 5-6 Central Time. 05:39.310 --> 05:42.810 Somebody had called in or written in or emailed us, an AOL instant message I 05:42.810 --> 05:45.570 think, about the two different authors in Genesis. 05:46.010 --> 05:49.010 I said, well actually there are ten different authors of Genesis. 05:49.750 --> 05:50.810 And they said, how can you trust it? 05:50.870 --> 05:52.550 Well, they are all eyewitnesses. 05:52.830 --> 05:54.970 And one guy asked, what about the Babylonian account? 05:55.150 --> 05:57.230 Didn't Moses copy from the Babylonian story? 05:57.710 --> 05:58.010 No. 05:58.650 --> 06:02.370 The Babylonians were, they had finally written down an oral legend. 06:02.750 --> 06:06.070 See, after the flood, people would talk about the creation and the flood and the 06:06.070 --> 06:08.530 Tower of Babel, three major incidents in human history. 06:08.850 --> 06:11.030 They would talk about that around the campfire for generations. 06:11.730 --> 06:15.190 And there are many flood stories and creation stories and Tower of Babel 06:15.190 --> 06:16.630 stories in cultures all over the world. 06:17.110 --> 06:20.410 And the Babylonians wrote theirs down before Moses wrote Genesis. 06:21.350 --> 06:24.370 But Moses had the actual clay tablets of the original story. 06:24.490 --> 06:25.670 I mean, he had the real McCoy. 06:26.230 --> 06:29.370 So what the Babylonians had is an oral tradition that went on for generations and 06:29.370 --> 06:30.270 finally got written down. 06:30.670 --> 06:32.230 Moses had the original. 06:33.530 --> 06:38.630 So no, just because Babylonian story was written first does not mean it came first. 06:39.710 --> 06:42.130 Moses actually wrote it down from the original story. 06:42.190 --> 06:43.770 Anyway, you can read all about that in the Teledos. 06:44.170 --> 06:48.570 But in 2 Peter chapter 3, it says, knowing this first, there shall come in 06:48.570 --> 06:49.990 the last days scoffers. 06:53.110 --> 06:55.370 There are people that actually scoff at God's word. 06:56.030 --> 06:57.270 How many have ever met one of those before? 06:57.950 --> 06:59.250 I deal with them all the time. 06:59.570 --> 07:00.910 I've had 83 debates now. 07:00.970 --> 07:02.470 I have 4 more scheduled in the next 2 months. 07:03.350 --> 07:06.050 The scoffers that scoff at God's word are out there folks. 07:06.150 --> 07:07.070 The woods are full of them. 07:07.810 --> 07:09.690 And it says they are going to walk after their own lust. 07:09.750 --> 07:11.310 The reason they scoff is because of their lust. 07:11.550 --> 07:12.450 Not because of their science. 07:12.770 --> 07:14.250 They don't want God telling them what to do. 07:14.730 --> 07:16.710 And the scoffers are going to say, where is the promise of his coming? 07:16.970 --> 07:19.970 Since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the 07:19.970 --> 07:20.850 beginning of the creation. 07:21.470 --> 07:23.910 For this they willingly are ignorant of. 07:24.930 --> 07:26.150 Willingly ignorant. 07:26.790 --> 07:29.470 In the Greek that means dumb on purpose. 07:30.870 --> 07:33.070 The scoffers are dumb on purpose about 2 things. 07:33.170 --> 07:34.390 Number 1, about the creation. 07:35.090 --> 07:37.130 How God made the heavens by his word. 07:37.270 --> 07:39.130 How the earth was standing in the water and out of the water. 07:39.190 --> 07:40.390 We cover all that in video number 2. 07:40.650 --> 07:42.190 And they are ignorant of the flood. 07:43.250 --> 07:45.830 The world was overflowed with water and perished. 07:46.210 --> 07:49.590 This world was totally annihilated by a flood. 07:50.170 --> 07:52.210 Every inch of ground under water. 07:53.670 --> 07:55.290 So Christians need to have an answer. 07:55.410 --> 07:56.210 How could this happen? 07:56.290 --> 07:57.230 Where did the water come from? 07:57.330 --> 07:57.910 Where did it go? 07:58.510 --> 08:00.050 And where is the evidence of all this? 08:00.470 --> 08:04.370 The Bible says the world we have today is kept in store, reserved unto judgment. 08:04.450 --> 08:05.330 There is a judgment coming. 08:05.710 --> 08:07.550 See the scoffers don't want to admit there was a creation. 08:07.930 --> 08:09.270 They don't want to admit there was a flood. 08:09.350 --> 08:10.990 And they don't want to admit there is a judgment coming. 08:11.050 --> 08:12.250 That is really what it boils down to. 08:12.770 --> 08:15.910 And in our seminar part 4, we covered some of the scoffers and the history of this. 08:15.970 --> 08:18.590 And in seminar 5, some of the effects of this teaching. 08:18.670 --> 08:22.310 How it led to the rise of Communism, Nazism, Socialism, Marxism. 08:22.370 --> 08:23.430 You might want to get that videotape. 08:23.490 --> 08:24.530 It is very politically incorrect. 08:24.930 --> 08:26.090 You may not want to watch that one actually. 08:26.410 --> 08:31.270 But the Bible puts the dates of the creation at about 6,000 years ago or 4,000 08:31.270 --> 08:31.870 B.C. 08:32.530 --> 08:33.730 I don't give an exact date. 08:33.810 --> 08:35.050 Plus or minus a few hundred years. 08:35.610 --> 08:38.470 And the skeptics will say, well what did God do for billions of years before the 08:38.470 --> 08:38.810 creation? 08:40.110 --> 08:44.670 You know that question assumes that God is stuck in time like we are. 08:45.650 --> 08:47.150 See we are limited by time. 08:47.190 --> 08:48.890 We can't go ahead or backwards in time. 08:49.090 --> 08:51.450 There have been many times I wish I could go back a few minutes. 08:52.370 --> 08:53.530 How many of you had those times before? 08:53.650 --> 08:55.930 Just let me go back two minutes. 08:56.170 --> 08:58.090 Let me try this one more time. 08:58.890 --> 09:00.390 Let me miss that tree this time. 09:02.430 --> 09:04.610 But see God is not limited by time. 09:05.410 --> 09:09.630 And the question what did God do before the creation assumes there was a before 09:09.630 --> 09:10.250 the creation. 09:10.930 --> 09:14.010 See God invented time, space, and matter in Genesis 1.1. 09:14.570 --> 09:16.670 There was no time before the creation. 09:17.410 --> 09:18.450 It is hard for the human brain. 09:18.490 --> 09:20.570 It is probably impossible for the human brain to understand that. 09:21.030 --> 09:25.130 But the question what did He do before millions of years assumes that God has to 09:25.130 --> 09:26.430 sit around waiting for a certain time. 09:26.990 --> 09:28.130 He is not limited by time. 09:28.630 --> 09:30.210 What was before the creation? 09:30.830 --> 09:31.670 There was no before. 09:32.390 --> 09:33.350 It is a totally different dimension. 09:33.490 --> 09:38.070 And someday there will be no... We sing songs like when we have been there 10,000 09:38.070 --> 09:38.490 years. 09:39.090 --> 09:40.850 Preachers good, sounds great, but it is not true. 09:41.790 --> 09:42.570 We are just going to be there. 09:42.950 --> 09:43.830 There will be no time. 09:44.410 --> 09:46.590 First thing you do when you get to heaven is take off your watch and fling it over 09:46.590 --> 09:46.910 to the side. 09:46.950 --> 09:47.650 You won't need that anymore. 09:48.550 --> 09:50.630 There shall be time and no longer the angel said. 09:51.150 --> 09:54.090 So the evolution story starts 20 billion years ago. 09:54.210 --> 09:55.450 They start with the beginning also. 09:55.770 --> 09:59.030 And even the evolutionists will say there has to be a time when there was no time. 10:00.730 --> 10:03.350 They think time, space, and matter all came into existence. 10:03.450 --> 10:06.690 This textbook says in the realm of the universe nothing really means nothing. 10:07.050 --> 10:10.250 Not only matter and energy would disappear, but also space and time. 10:11.810 --> 10:15.470 If there were no time... See, you have to have time, space, and matter come into 10:15.470 --> 10:16.710 existence all simultaneously. 10:17.190 --> 10:19.690 If there were matter but were no space, where would you put it? 10:21.170 --> 10:23.870 If there were matter and space but no time, when would you put it? 10:25.150 --> 10:28.010 You have to have time, space, and matter come into existence at the same time. 10:28.050 --> 10:28.770 It is called a continuum. 10:29.010 --> 10:31.830 There is a great footnote in Henry Morris' Defenders Bible on that one. 10:32.090 --> 10:32.770 I recommend that. 10:32.830 --> 10:35.170 That will make you scratch your head for the rest of your life thinking, 10:35.270 --> 10:36.210 man, this is amazing. 10:36.530 --> 10:37.770 Our human brain won't wrap around this. 10:37.790 --> 10:40.450 Anyway, the Bible says in the beginning, that is time, God created the heaven, 10:40.610 --> 10:42.370 that is space, and the earth, that is matter. 10:43.170 --> 10:45.570 Time, space, matter all made at the same time. 10:45.790 --> 10:48.170 It is called the trinity of trinities. 10:48.310 --> 10:50.130 Time has three dimensions, past, present, future. 10:50.450 --> 10:52.210 Space has three dimensions, length, width, height. 10:52.530 --> 10:54.610 And matter has three dimensions, solid, liquid, gas. 10:55.490 --> 10:56.670 Plasma is just a hotter gas. 10:56.950 --> 11:01.010 All three come into existence simultaneously, according to Genesis 1.1. 11:01.070 --> 11:04.850 Anyway, Genesis 1 tells us there was a canopy of water above the creation. 11:05.250 --> 11:06.970 We mention this quite a bit on Seminar Part 2. 11:07.410 --> 11:10.430 And before the flood came, the people lived to be over 900. 11:11.130 --> 11:13.390 Probably one of the reasons is because of this canopy overhead. 11:14.290 --> 11:17.010 And people say, well, wait a minute, the Bible says the sun was made on day 11:17.010 --> 11:17.370 four. 11:17.790 --> 11:19.550 How did they have light before the sun? 11:20.310 --> 11:21.850 Well, God Himself is light. 11:22.230 --> 11:24.810 The Hebrew word or is the word translated light. 11:24.910 --> 11:28.250 We have two words in English, two things in English that are both called the same 11:28.250 --> 11:28.430 thing. 11:28.470 --> 11:29.070 They are both called light. 11:29.330 --> 11:32.990 I can look up and say, that is a light, or I can say, turn on the light. 11:33.610 --> 11:34.950 That light produces light. 11:36.510 --> 11:38.010 In Hebrew they have two different words. 11:38.290 --> 11:39.670 Or is the light itself. 11:39.890 --> 11:41.250 Maor is the light source. 11:42.390 --> 11:43.950 We only have one word in English. 11:44.170 --> 11:47.750 In Genesis 1 it says God created the light and then later He made the source for the 11:47.750 --> 11:47.930 light. 11:48.210 --> 11:50.050 Apparently He started the electromagnetic spectrum. 11:50.150 --> 11:52.010 He energized the universe with His voice. 11:52.130 --> 11:52.670 He spoke. 11:53.090 --> 11:57.510 And all the radio waves and microwaves and all the energy waves of the universe, 11:57.610 --> 12:00.430 the whole electromagnetic spectrum, the universe was energized just by the 12:00.430 --> 12:01.050 voice of God. 12:02.890 --> 12:05.790 Then later He made the lights, the sun, moon, stars, probably so Adam 12:05.790 --> 12:06.910 would know not to worship them. 12:07.810 --> 12:08.770 I think we have to have a sun. 12:08.830 --> 12:10.730 It is a wonderful thing to have, but it is not something to worship. 12:11.190 --> 12:12.570 And many cultures worship the sun. 12:12.930 --> 12:15.750 So God made it later to show it is important, but it is not the most 12:15.750 --> 12:16.090 important. 12:16.210 --> 12:17.390 He is the light. 12:17.750 --> 12:20.630 The Bible says God is light and Him is no darkness at all. 12:20.990 --> 12:23.830 In Genesis 1.16 it says God made the greater light and the lesser light. 12:23.890 --> 12:27.410 This is a different word, the Maor, which is the light source. 12:27.910 --> 12:30.330 So He made the light before He made the light source. 12:30.610 --> 12:32.910 Actually Psalm 27 says the Lord is my light. 12:33.910 --> 12:36.290 He is not just the source of our light, He is the light. 12:36.930 --> 12:38.370 Fascinating thing to study on there. 12:38.670 --> 12:41.190 In Greek it is called phos, for phosphorous where we get our fluorescent 12:41.190 --> 12:44.530 light, the root word for fluorescent, which means light. 12:45.490 --> 12:48.170 The psalmist said we should consider the heavens, consider the light. 12:48.610 --> 12:52.430 The Bible talks about the stars singing together in Job chapter 38. 12:52.970 --> 12:54.870 The stars actually produce radio waves. 12:55.390 --> 12:56.770 Carl Baugh has got a great theory on that. 12:56.850 --> 13:00.870 He thinks the canopy of water overhead used to translate the vibration of the 13:00.870 --> 13:02.810 stars, the radio waves, into sound waves. 13:03.470 --> 13:06.230 So Adam and Eve could hear the gospel story proclaimed by the stars. 13:06.630 --> 13:07.990 I don't know, interesting theory. 13:08.070 --> 13:08.810 It sure preaches good. 13:09.090 --> 13:11.690 Something worth studying if you want to chase another rabbit for a while. 13:11.790 --> 13:12.670 That is a neat one to study. 13:13.150 --> 13:17.210 But in Revelation 21 it says they have no need of the sun, neither of the moon to 13:17.210 --> 13:21.410 shine in it, for the glory of God did light in it, and the Lamb is the light 13:21.410 --> 13:21.810 thereof. 13:22.210 --> 13:26.490 It is interesting, for the first 13 verses in the Bible there was light but no source 13:26.490 --> 13:26.950 for the light. 13:27.270 --> 13:28.170 God was the light. 13:28.790 --> 13:31.570 And at the end of the Bible there will be no sun, moon, or stars. 13:32.190 --> 13:33.230 God is the light. 13:34.450 --> 13:34.810 Interesting. 13:35.190 --> 13:37.690 It starts off, first 13 verses, no sun, moon, stars. 13:38.050 --> 13:40.350 Last 17 verses, no sun, moon, stars. 13:40.950 --> 13:41.930 It is going to end the same way. 13:42.390 --> 13:43.330 We don't need the sun, moon, stars. 13:43.450 --> 13:43.870 We have God. 13:43.950 --> 13:44.690 He is the light. 13:44.910 --> 13:48.190 The Bible says the Lord God giveth them light, Revelation 22 verse 5. 13:48.230 --> 13:48.870 He is the light. 13:49.090 --> 13:51.350 Anyway, we can talk all day about the light, but people say no. 13:51.730 --> 13:54.490 If God made a beautiful world, put Adam and Eve in it. 13:55.010 --> 13:56.630 He made this beautiful garden it talks about. 13:56.790 --> 13:57.390 Where is the garden? 13:57.430 --> 13:58.050 I want to go see it. 13:58.590 --> 13:59.610 Where is the Garden of Eden? 14:00.410 --> 14:03.270 Well, the flood completely destroyed the world, rearranged the real estate, 14:03.370 --> 14:05.890 dropped everybody's property value to zero there for a few months. 14:06.670 --> 14:12.050 I think the Garden of Eden is probably long gone, buried under 500 feet of mud 14:12.050 --> 14:12.330 someplace. 14:13.050 --> 14:18.950 The Bible says in Genesis chapter 2, the Lord God planted a garden eastward in 14:18.950 --> 14:20.930 Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed. 14:21.270 --> 14:24.590 God made this beautiful garden, and it says a river went out of Eden, 14:24.750 --> 14:26.110 and it parted into four heads. 14:26.230 --> 14:27.970 And the name of the one river was Euphrates. 14:28.750 --> 14:31.750 And people look at this and say, see, the Garden of Eden must be over where 14:31.750 --> 14:32.430 Baghdad is. 14:33.590 --> 14:35.810 How many of you guys are in the military and have been over there to Baghdad? 14:36.770 --> 14:37.390 Nobody here? 14:37.530 --> 14:38.730 We have several in our church who have been over there. 14:38.790 --> 14:42.170 I would say they would testify that is not the Garden of Eden over there. 14:44.490 --> 14:45.050 Far cry. 14:45.350 --> 14:48.670 There is a river that runs through Baghdad called Euphrates. 14:49.530 --> 14:50.130 So what? 14:50.790 --> 14:53.570 There are 36 cities in America named Greenville. 14:54.150 --> 14:55.910 36 different states have a Greenville. 14:56.690 --> 14:57.350 What does that mean? 14:58.170 --> 14:59.710 People think it is a neat name, that is all. 15:00.410 --> 15:03.770 When people got off the ark, they probably saw rivers that reminded them of pre-flood 15:03.770 --> 15:06.470 things and said, oh, that looks like, reminds me of, you know, Euphrates, 15:06.590 --> 15:07.550 so we will give it the same name. 15:08.050 --> 15:12.150 This Genesis 2.14 tells us that one river went out and parted into four heads. 15:13.030 --> 15:16.050 I think the water system before the flood came was backwards to today. 15:16.590 --> 15:19.370 Today rivers come together to make bigger rivers. 15:19.990 --> 15:23.110 Here you have one spring coming out of the ground, apparently, parting into four 15:23.110 --> 15:23.450 rivers. 15:24.270 --> 15:27.070 The water cycle was very different before the flood than it is today. 15:27.650 --> 15:30.370 There is a river called Euphrates that runs through Baghdad that is not the 15:30.370 --> 15:30.810 Garden of Eden. 15:30.870 --> 15:31.570 It is a pure coincidence. 15:31.930 --> 15:33.550 There is a city in Ontario called London. 15:34.130 --> 15:37.130 There is a city in America called New York, named after York. 15:37.970 --> 15:38.770 They are not the same city. 15:38.870 --> 15:41.110 People got off the boat and said, we will call this, you know, New York. 15:41.590 --> 15:44.570 I drove through Missouri and went through the town of Moscow, Missouri. 15:46.070 --> 15:47.650 That is not Moscow, Russia. 15:47.650 --> 15:49.230 It is just that somebody chose the same name. 15:49.550 --> 15:51.130 The Garden of Eden is long gone. 15:51.330 --> 15:52.230 I don't think we are going to find it. 15:52.250 --> 15:53.390 It is probably under 400 feet of mud. 15:53.410 --> 15:55.970 I suspect in Pensacola, Florida is my theory on that. 15:56.250 --> 15:58.710 Anyway, that world was totally destroyed. 15:59.010 --> 16:00.810 How many of you also think it might have been in Pensacola, Florida? 16:01.170 --> 16:01.670 Okay, good. 16:02.050 --> 16:02.810 You all agree with me then. 16:02.930 --> 16:03.530 That is why you live here. 16:03.750 --> 16:05.450 The Bible was destroyed by a flood. 16:05.690 --> 16:07.710 The Bible teaches that man brought death into the world. 16:07.910 --> 16:11.370 Death reigned from Adam to Moses, Romans chapter 5. 16:11.870 --> 16:13.010 Man brought death into the world. 16:13.050 --> 16:14.790 There was no death until Adam sinned. 16:15.670 --> 16:17.350 It was man that brought death into the world. 16:17.470 --> 16:18.870 The Bible says death is an enemy. 16:20.190 --> 16:22.330 And God made a perfect world where there was no death. 16:22.670 --> 16:23.830 Nothing died until Adam sinned. 16:23.870 --> 16:25.730 People say, wait a minute, didn't plants die? 16:27.250 --> 16:29.010 Adam ate plants, doesn't that kill the plant? 16:29.190 --> 16:31.250 Well, that assumes, of course, that plants are alive. 16:31.750 --> 16:35.110 If you look at Genesis chapter 1, verse 11, God said, let the earth bring 16:35.110 --> 16:38.890 forth the grass, the herbs, and the fruit trees on the third day. 16:39.450 --> 16:41.670 Then it says, He made all the plants on the third day. 16:41.990 --> 16:46.150 If you read Genesis 1, 14-19, it says, God made the lights in the firmament of 16:46.150 --> 16:47.490 the heaven on the fourth day. 16:47.930 --> 16:51.210 And then on the fifth day, He made the living things. 16:51.750 --> 16:53.030 There's a clear distinction here. 16:53.430 --> 16:57.230 Plants made on day three, living things made on day five. 16:57.910 --> 16:59.090 Plants are not called alive. 16:59.150 --> 16:59.670 That's interesting. 17:00.250 --> 17:03.170 Now in our nomenclature today, plants are considered living. 17:03.630 --> 17:04.610 Well, not this one. 17:04.650 --> 17:05.670 This is a fake one, but still. 17:06.570 --> 17:10.850 We would consider plants alive because that's the way we classify things. 17:11.010 --> 17:12.750 But that's not the way they're classified in the Bible. 17:12.890 --> 17:14.510 Plants are not considered alive. 17:14.610 --> 17:17.410 They're a complex, self-replicating food source, but they're not living. 17:17.810 --> 17:18.850 I can show you from Scripture here. 17:19.350 --> 17:23.470 Genesis 1, 24, God said, let the earth bring forth the living creature after his 17:23.470 --> 17:23.850 kind. 17:24.370 --> 17:25.850 This is on day six. 17:25.950 --> 17:27.050 He made living creatures. 17:27.610 --> 17:28.730 Plants were made on day three. 17:29.290 --> 17:32.890 If you read Genesis 1, 29, God said in verse 30, to every beast of the earth and 17:32.890 --> 17:36.170 to every fowl of the air and everything that creepeth upon the earth wherein there 17:36.170 --> 17:38.710 is life, I have given every green herb. 17:40.050 --> 17:41.050 Here there's a clear distinction. 17:41.530 --> 17:43.450 All the living things are supposed to eat the green things. 17:44.350 --> 17:45.390 He's telling us they're not alive. 17:46.550 --> 17:47.270 Now, they're interesting. 17:47.390 --> 17:49.210 They grow, they reproduce, but they're not living. 17:49.530 --> 17:50.110 And I'll show you why. 17:50.430 --> 17:54.350 Genesis chapter 4, Cain brought the fruit of the ground, an offering to the Lord. 17:54.650 --> 17:55.550 Abel brought the flock. 17:56.890 --> 17:59.030 There's a difference here between the fruit and the flock. 17:59.110 --> 18:00.190 You can't get blood out of a turnip. 18:00.610 --> 18:04.330 God was not excited about Cain's offering because it didn't have blood. 18:05.050 --> 18:07.590 Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sin, the Bible 18:07.590 --> 18:08.370 tells us very clearly. 18:08.670 --> 18:11.990 Genesis chapter 6, God said, I bring a flood of waters upon the earth to destroy 18:11.990 --> 18:14.450 all flesh wherein there is the breath of life. 18:15.130 --> 18:16.630 It has to have breath in order to be alive. 18:16.930 --> 18:22.310 Genesis 6, 19 says, every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort, shall come 18:22.310 --> 18:25.770 unto thee, and take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten. 18:26.430 --> 18:27.490 Here's again a distinction. 18:28.130 --> 18:30.790 Living things and food are not the same. 18:31.490 --> 18:33.550 So the Bible does not consider plants to be alive. 18:33.650 --> 18:37.450 Genesis chapter 7, verse 14 says, and the beast and the cattle and the 18:37.450 --> 18:40.430 creeping things and the fowl and the birds wherein is the breath of life, 18:40.630 --> 18:42.370 in whose nostrils was the breath of life. 18:42.450 --> 18:43.230 Genesis chapter 7. 18:43.750 --> 18:47.890 And Genesis 9, when they get off the ark, God said, every moving thing that liveth 18:47.890 --> 18:51.010 shall be meat for you, even as the green herb. 18:53.030 --> 18:55.990 Now, just like you used to eat the plants, now you can eat the moving things. 18:56.650 --> 18:58.870 Now you can go shoot Bambi's daddy and eat him. 18:59.930 --> 19:00.530 How many do that? 19:00.610 --> 19:01.510 Ready to go shoot Bambi's daddy? 19:01.570 --> 19:01.830 There you go. 19:01.910 --> 19:02.090 Amen. 19:02.270 --> 19:06.410 So there is a clear distinction here between the plants and the living, 19:06.790 --> 19:07.270 moving things. 19:08.290 --> 19:12.050 Leviticus 17 talks about the life of the flesh is in the blood. 19:12.510 --> 19:13.730 Plants don't have blood. 19:14.610 --> 19:15.850 Leviticus 17, verse 13. 19:16.370 --> 19:19.030 The life of all flesh is the blood thereof. 19:19.970 --> 19:22.830 And you can't eat that which dieth of itself, according to verse 15. 19:23.190 --> 19:24.810 So if it dies of itself you can't eat it. 19:24.850 --> 19:27.070 Well, we wait and eat the nuts and fruit after they fall from the ground, 19:27.450 --> 19:28.410 after they fall off the tree. 19:29.050 --> 19:31.490 So if they are alive you would be violating scripture to eat them. 19:31.930 --> 19:33.730 You couldn't eat anything that came off the tree. 19:34.330 --> 19:39.050 You can't pick the peas and then eat them the next day because it is now off the 19:39.050 --> 19:39.230 tree. 19:39.930 --> 19:41.030 So no, plants are not alive. 19:41.510 --> 19:44.430 The Bible talks about the leaf withering in Psalm chapter 1. 19:44.650 --> 19:48.190 It says the grass withers like the green herb in Psalm 37. 19:48.470 --> 19:51.370 Isaiah 19 talks about the reeds and the flags shall wither. 19:51.870 --> 19:54.150 Isaiah 19 says the reeds shall wither. 19:54.490 --> 19:56.490 Isaiah 40 talks about they shall wither. 19:57.110 --> 19:58.430 It is not die, it is wither. 19:58.990 --> 20:03.370 All through scripture you see where plants they fade, they wither, but they don't die 20:03.370 --> 20:06.090 in the sense that humans or animals die. 20:06.450 --> 20:07.750 There is a very different distinction here. 20:08.250 --> 20:09.150 A car can die. 20:10.290 --> 20:11.890 That has happened to mine a couple of times actually. 20:12.310 --> 20:13.170 A computer can die. 20:13.710 --> 20:15.730 How many ever had the blue screen of death come up on your computer? 20:17.070 --> 20:19.690 And your stuff goes to data heaven, right? 20:20.390 --> 20:23.210 There is a lot of stuff in data heaven folks would love to go visit, you know, 20:23.250 --> 20:24.490 I am sure, get some of that stuff back. 20:24.770 --> 20:26.490 A dream can die, the wind can die down. 20:26.770 --> 20:28.330 This is not the same kind of death. 20:28.590 --> 20:30.550 So, no, plants are not alive. 20:30.650 --> 20:34.230 A plant is a complex, self-replicating food source, but it is not alive. 20:35.190 --> 20:38.190 I don't know that you can prove insects are alive in the biblical sense either. 20:38.970 --> 20:40.370 I don't know that they have the breath of life. 20:40.430 --> 20:42.490 They don't breathe through nostrils, they don't breathe, they just absorb 20:42.490 --> 20:43.390 oxygen through their skin. 20:43.750 --> 20:44.630 So that may be a question. 20:44.730 --> 20:46.550 If Adam stepped on an ant, did it die? 20:47.070 --> 20:48.270 Well, was it alive? 20:49.050 --> 20:52.430 Or are the insects a complex, self-replicating food source and not 20:52.430 --> 20:52.590 alive? 20:52.650 --> 20:53.870 I don't know, I haven't solved that one yet. 20:54.230 --> 20:55.530 But I think it is something worth looking at. 20:55.550 --> 20:56.490 The Garden of Eden was perfect. 20:56.490 --> 20:57.230 God made Adam. 20:57.330 --> 20:58.630 He was the first man. 20:59.350 --> 21:01.570 And people say, wait a minute, what does Adam mean anyway? 21:01.650 --> 21:02.670 Who is this Adam guy? 21:03.070 --> 21:05.970 Well, it is interesting, if you look at the ten names given from Adam to Noah. 21:07.070 --> 21:08.190 Fascinating sequence here. 21:09.030 --> 21:11.630 Henry Morris has another great footnote on that one if you want to get it. 21:11.890 --> 21:13.190 Be sure to get my disclaimer with it. 21:13.230 --> 21:14.230 A few things we disagree with. 21:14.910 --> 21:17.890 But he has a great footnote explaining the meaning of the names. 21:18.190 --> 21:24.050 Adam means man, Seth means appointed, Enos means mortal, Canaan means sorrow, 21:24.730 --> 21:28.850 Mahaliel means the blessed God, Jared means shall come down in Hebrew, 21:29.530 --> 21:34.810 Enoch means preaching, Methuselah means his death shall bring, and Lamech means 21:34.810 --> 21:36.630 the despairing, and Noah means rest. 21:37.510 --> 21:42.890 Apparently just the names from Genesis, from Adam to Noah, God is trying to tell 21:42.890 --> 21:45.630 us man is appointed mortal sorrow, but the blessed God shall come down 21:45.630 --> 21:48.210 preaching that his death shall bring the despairing rest. 21:49.550 --> 21:51.250 Right in the names in the Hebrew. 21:51.730 --> 21:53.850 And of course the Hebrew language, they take these things very serious. 21:53.930 --> 21:56.750 Not only do the names have meanings, the names have numerical equivalents. 21:57.510 --> 21:58.950 And that is another long interesting story. 21:59.050 --> 22:01.710 But anyway, God made this perfect world and then it got destroyed. 22:02.570 --> 22:04.210 Adam sinned and God cursed it. 22:04.750 --> 22:05.850 And he said something very fascinating. 22:05.970 --> 22:07.850 I read my Bible for years before I caught this. 22:07.910 --> 22:09.310 It just jumped out the page at me here one day. 22:09.610 --> 22:10.330 Genesis chapter three. 22:11.310 --> 22:12.790 God said to Adam, where art thou? 22:12.870 --> 22:14.650 He was out hiding with his fig leaves on. 22:15.810 --> 22:18.930 And the Lord said, hast thou eaten of the tree that I commanded? 22:19.010 --> 22:19.910 Thou shaltest not eat of it. 22:20.490 --> 22:21.210 Look what Adam said. 22:22.710 --> 22:28.790 The woman that thou gavest to be with me gave me of the tree and I did eat. 22:29.910 --> 22:31.670 This is the type of confession you get out of your kids. 22:33.690 --> 22:34.930 Adam, did you eat of the tree? 22:35.630 --> 22:41.690 Well Lord, that woman that you gave me, you see I am trying to pass the buck here. 22:42.530 --> 22:44.590 It is mostly her fault and partly your fault God. 22:44.690 --> 22:46.690 If you had not given me that woman I would not be in this mess. 22:48.630 --> 22:50.970 But finally he confesses and says, yeah I ate it. 22:51.350 --> 22:53.410 So he says to the woman, did you do it? 22:53.810 --> 23:03.990 She said, the snake, implying that you made, tricked me and I ate. 23:05.770 --> 23:07.190 We confess the same way. 23:07.310 --> 23:09.690 It is not completely my fault. 23:09.770 --> 23:10.910 You are in the courts all the time. 23:10.950 --> 23:13.030 You see these guys in the legal profession. 23:13.230 --> 23:13.770 Did you do it? 23:14.150 --> 23:15.790 Well, not exactly your honor. 23:16.190 --> 23:18.990 It is the system's fault or something else. 23:19.050 --> 23:19.730 You get this all the time. 23:20.010 --> 23:21.010 Adam did the same thing. 23:21.130 --> 23:22.050 It is your fault. 23:22.350 --> 23:25.850 It is interesting also in Genesis chapter 3 God talks about the seed of the woman. 23:26.850 --> 23:27.890 Now this is fascinating scripture. 23:30.510 --> 23:35.470 For many years scientists taught that the man's seed was all that was necessary to 23:35.470 --> 23:36.030 produce life. 23:36.850 --> 23:39.590 They thought the woman just provided the incubation place for the baby to grow. 23:40.630 --> 23:43.710 Scientists did not know that half of the chromosomes came from the woman and half 23:43.710 --> 23:45.570 from the man until really in the last hundred years or so. 23:46.230 --> 23:47.150 Maybe 300 years. 23:48.070 --> 23:51.010 God said that in Genesis, the seed of the woman. 23:52.130 --> 23:54.870 If people just read their Bible there is a whole lot of cool stuff in there. 23:55.350 --> 23:56.890 Like the life of the flesh is in the blood. 23:57.650 --> 24:00.230 How many folks died in the days when they are bleeding people to get them well? 24:01.870 --> 24:02.790 Just read the book. 24:02.870 --> 24:03.950 There is a lot of good stuff in there. 24:04.430 --> 24:07.330 Anyway, Genesis chapter 3 says, unto the woman he said, I will greatly 24:07.330 --> 24:08.910 multiply thy sorrow and conception. 24:09.830 --> 24:10.670 Here is part of your curse. 24:10.770 --> 24:11.870 You are going to have pain and child bearing. 24:12.070 --> 24:14.810 And part of the curse, Adam is going to rule over you. 24:16.270 --> 24:17.450 That is actually part of the curse. 24:18.450 --> 24:19.390 The man is the boss. 24:20.170 --> 24:22.890 Because women often times have a very different view of things and actually 24:22.890 --> 24:23.910 sometimes better judgment. 24:24.730 --> 24:27.590 But the problem is they are tainted by their emotional. 24:28.010 --> 24:29.830 They look at it logically and emotionally. 24:31.130 --> 24:33.510 Well, yeah, he committed the crime, but he is such a nice guy. 24:33.670 --> 24:34.370 Let's let him off. 24:34.490 --> 24:37.490 Men are more just off with his head. 24:38.670 --> 24:39.770 We need that balance. 24:39.870 --> 24:42.570 God puts the two together and it really gets frustrating sometimes and sparks fly. 24:43.870 --> 24:45.870 But still it is interesting. 24:46.350 --> 24:49.130 God said then in Genesis chapter 3 verse 17, an amazing verse. 24:49.470 --> 24:53.110 He said, Adam, curse it as the ground for thy sake. 24:54.150 --> 24:57.250 He said, Adam, you are going to have to work for a living now and this is good for 24:57.250 --> 24:57.430 you. 24:58.250 --> 25:01.730 It is tragic that so many people don't make their kids work. 25:03.130 --> 25:06.610 I taught school 15 years and I saw the kids, you know, that dad would buy them a 25:06.610 --> 25:07.830 new car when they turned 16. 25:09.430 --> 25:11.970 We had one kid out in the boulevard, we called it the boulevard, East Peoria 25:11.970 --> 25:12.350 High School. 25:12.430 --> 25:14.290 They are the boulevard boys who get out there and show off their cars. 25:14.630 --> 25:19.430 He had one of those super muscle cars back in the early, 1970, I think, when I was a 25:19.430 --> 25:20.050 junior in high school. 25:20.650 --> 25:23.570 And he had a switch on where he could shut off the back brakes and only hold the 25:23.570 --> 25:25.670 front brakes on and sit there and peel out with his car. 25:26.190 --> 25:27.250 And the car wouldn't go anywhere. 25:27.930 --> 25:29.130 And smoke would fill the neighborhood. 25:29.210 --> 25:29.970 Everybody was really impressed. 25:30.070 --> 25:30.910 Wow, look at this guy. 25:30.950 --> 25:32.930 He is burning up a whole good set of tires, you know, in five minutes. 25:33.010 --> 25:33.790 He is really smart, you know. 25:34.370 --> 25:36.990 And then he would let off the brakes and take off down the boulevard. 25:37.490 --> 25:38.890 Well, his daddy bought him that new car. 25:40.310 --> 25:45.790 My neighbor, his daddy bought him a new, one of the really fast Dodges back in 25:45.790 --> 25:47.850 those days, 442 or one of those, you know, it was incredible. 25:48.610 --> 25:51.330 The kid had put in five transmissions in two years. 25:53.530 --> 25:53.890 Why? 25:54.990 --> 25:55.910 Daddy was buying it. 25:57.670 --> 26:00.890 My daddy's philosophy was, I'll buy you guys all the tricycles you need, 26:01.030 --> 26:03.690 I'll buy your first two-wheeler, and I'll buy half of your second 26:03.690 --> 26:04.070 two-wheeler. 26:05.210 --> 26:09.750 And after that, you can have any car you want, as long as you're buying it. 26:09.770 --> 26:10.330 That's correct. 26:11.810 --> 26:17.510 And boy, when I bought my first Volkswagen for $300, you know, I washed it and waxed 26:17.510 --> 26:18.470 it and oiled all the hinges. 26:18.550 --> 26:22.330 I would go around my car every year and oil every screw and everything that moved. 26:22.490 --> 26:23.150 I'd fix it. 26:24.330 --> 26:25.350 I paid for it. 26:26.810 --> 26:30.310 And it's just, God said, curse it as the ground for thy sake. 26:31.170 --> 26:34.490 And I think parents make a tragic mistake of trying to make it easy on their kids. 26:34.790 --> 26:36.510 Well, I had it hard, I don't want my kid to have it hard. 26:36.610 --> 26:37.470 Look, they need it hard. 26:38.070 --> 26:40.130 If you help a chicken out of the egg, it'll die. 26:40.250 --> 26:41.350 It's got to pick its way out. 26:43.330 --> 26:45.130 It's got to have, it's got to go through those struggles. 26:46.150 --> 26:48.650 And if the kid's moaning and groaning, I got to walk to school. 26:48.950 --> 26:49.150 Yeah. 26:49.970 --> 26:54.450 We had to walk to school 40 miles in the snow, barefoot, uphill, both ways. 26:57.170 --> 26:59.610 I told my kids, hey, life's rough and then you die. 26:59.710 --> 27:00.330 Get used to it. 27:00.450 --> 27:00.590 Okay. 27:00.790 --> 27:02.390 That's just the way it's going to be. 27:03.450 --> 27:03.810 Okay. 27:04.070 --> 27:06.370 Anyway, Genesis said, God said, I'm going to bring, there's going to be 27:06.370 --> 27:08.530 thorns and thistles in the sweat of thy brow. 27:09.950 --> 27:12.010 You're made out of dust and you're going to return to the dust. 27:12.450 --> 27:14.110 Work is actually a blessing. 27:14.890 --> 27:17.850 Can you imagine a people that are wicked and vile had nothing to do all day, 27:17.930 --> 27:19.350 but sit around and think up bad things to do. 27:20.050 --> 27:22.050 That's one of the dangers of our welfare system. 27:23.250 --> 27:24.930 The Bible says, if you don't work, you don't eat. 27:25.850 --> 27:27.530 Somebody gets hungry enough, they'll go to work. 27:29.030 --> 27:32.510 People that have problems with addictions and stuff, the work's the best thing for 27:32.510 --> 27:32.650 them. 27:33.150 --> 27:33.890 I don't have time. 27:34.070 --> 27:34.690 I got to work. 27:36.790 --> 27:40.330 And people that don't have to work for a living almost invariably end up in some 27:40.330 --> 27:40.790 kind of trouble. 27:41.630 --> 27:43.950 God said, cursed is the ground for thy sake. 27:44.190 --> 27:46.610 That curse that he put on this world is still here, folks. 27:47.330 --> 27:48.670 We still have pain and childbearing. 27:48.790 --> 27:49.790 We still have thorns and thistles. 27:49.870 --> 27:50.850 You still got to plow the ground. 27:51.190 --> 27:51.770 You got to work. 27:52.710 --> 27:56.490 And some of these politicians grew up with a golden spoon in their mouth or a silver 27:56.490 --> 27:57.070 spoon in their mouth. 27:57.190 --> 27:58.350 You know, never had to work a day in their life. 27:58.650 --> 27:59.910 They don't understand what it's all about. 28:01.010 --> 28:01.850 Somebody told me politics. 28:02.050 --> 28:03.990 Poly means many and a tick is a blood-sucking insect. 28:06.190 --> 28:06.870 Think about that one. 28:07.090 --> 28:10.210 Anyway, after the curse then, there was a flood. 28:11.090 --> 28:14.930 The Bible says in Genesis 6, God saw the wickedness of man and his imaginations of 28:14.930 --> 28:16.410 his heart was evil continually. 28:17.050 --> 28:19.910 And he repented the Lord that he made man and grieved him at his heart. 28:19.990 --> 28:23.690 And God said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth. 28:23.870 --> 28:25.210 It repented me that I have made them. 28:25.850 --> 28:28.730 And the Bible says the earth was corrupt before God and filled with violence. 28:29.250 --> 28:30.890 And God looked upon the earth and it was corrupt. 28:30.990 --> 28:32.190 All flesh had corrupted his way. 28:32.270 --> 28:33.490 And God said to Noah, that's it. 28:33.510 --> 28:34.770 I'm wiping everybody out. 28:34.910 --> 28:35.590 Go build an ark. 28:36.930 --> 28:38.930 And Noah said to his boys, boys, go for wood. 28:39.030 --> 28:39.690 We got to build a boat. 28:40.330 --> 28:42.150 And so he went and got all that gopher wood or whatever it was. 28:42.230 --> 28:43.310 And then they built this big boat. 28:44.370 --> 28:49.370 And we covered about the flood and the ark story a little bit more on video tape 28:49.370 --> 28:50.010 number two. 28:50.590 --> 28:53.570 On video number three about where is Noah's ark, if there really was a Noah's 28:53.570 --> 28:53.730 ark. 28:53.810 --> 28:54.530 There are four different options. 28:54.650 --> 28:55.730 Watch video two for more on that. 28:56.030 --> 28:57.850 I'm sorry, video three, the beginning of seminar part three. 28:58.830 --> 29:02.610 Some people have asked, well, hey, if God was mad at the world, why would he 29:02.610 --> 29:03.630 tell Noah to build a big boat? 29:03.690 --> 29:04.990 Why not just make everybody die? 29:06.030 --> 29:08.770 Can't God say, okay, I want everybody except Noah and his family to die. 29:09.050 --> 29:09.830 And they would die. 29:10.670 --> 29:11.390 God could do that. 29:11.910 --> 29:13.050 Why use a flood anyway? 29:13.610 --> 29:15.130 Why make Noah spend, who knows? 29:15.610 --> 29:17.530 Some people say it took him seven years to build the ark. 29:17.590 --> 29:18.690 Some people say 120 years. 29:18.770 --> 29:20.310 I don't think the scripture is clear on the topic. 29:20.650 --> 29:22.130 It took him a long time to build a boat that size. 29:23.010 --> 29:23.750 Why do that? 29:24.110 --> 29:26.070 Well, interesting things to consider about the flood. 29:26.550 --> 29:27.690 The flood left evidence. 29:28.050 --> 29:28.890 A miracle would not. 29:29.470 --> 29:31.310 You can go all over the world and pick up fossils. 29:32.730 --> 29:36.310 There are fossils, which are evidence like this giant trilobite. 29:37.550 --> 29:38.430 Something died. 29:39.650 --> 29:43.890 This is actually a replica of a fossilized arm to an octopus. 29:45.590 --> 29:49.270 You realize how unlikely it would be for an octopus to fossilize? 29:49.830 --> 29:50.750 They're all soft tissue. 29:52.130 --> 29:54.170 Fossilized jellyfish are found. 29:54.950 --> 29:55.790 How can that be? 29:56.490 --> 29:57.690 Fossilized eggs. 29:58.410 --> 30:00.670 We have three real dinosaur eggs in our museum. 30:00.810 --> 30:02.470 Well, they're here today, but they'll be in the museum tomorrow. 30:03.450 --> 30:04.270 Dinosaur eggs. 30:04.770 --> 30:07.850 Thousands of dinosaur and many eggs are found fossilized. 30:08.130 --> 30:10.170 What's the chances of an egg fossilizing? 30:11.070 --> 30:12.910 You know, like slim to none. 30:14.230 --> 30:17.810 And yet there's evidence all over the world that we can pick up today. 30:18.810 --> 30:22.490 And Satan knows this ought to draw people to say, wow, there was a flood. 30:22.530 --> 30:23.430 There was a disaster. 30:23.490 --> 30:24.590 This thing was buried quickly. 30:25.670 --> 30:31.690 And Satan has used very hard to deceive people into thinking that the fossils that 30:31.690 --> 30:35.050 testify of God's judgment instead testify of millions of years. 30:36.950 --> 30:39.590 Kids go to school for 16 years and they're taught over and over. 30:39.670 --> 30:40.770 Oh, this is proof for evolution. 30:40.850 --> 30:41.310 Millions of years. 30:41.370 --> 30:43.550 No, this is proof there was a judgment of God. 30:44.250 --> 30:45.050 There was a flood. 30:46.310 --> 30:47.750 That flood left evidence all over. 30:47.810 --> 30:50.230 You can just about any place in the world dig around and find fossils. 30:50.370 --> 30:51.030 They're everywhere. 30:52.330 --> 30:53.350 Proof of God's judgment. 30:53.890 --> 30:57.910 The facts are still here today, but people are misinterpreting that. 30:58.670 --> 31:01.330 They're seeing the fossils and thinking millions of years. 31:01.450 --> 31:02.970 No, it ought to be thinking God's judgment. 31:03.730 --> 31:06.790 When you look at fossils, I like fossils, and man, I see things have changed. 31:07.110 --> 31:09.070 There's a reed that grows today. 31:09.170 --> 31:11.130 It gets about 15 inches tall, little reed. 31:12.130 --> 31:15.030 They find fossils of them that used to be 150 feet tall. 31:16.430 --> 31:18.410 Something was very different before the flood. 31:18.530 --> 31:21.010 I mean, giant plants lived on this planet. 31:21.730 --> 31:23.210 Huge coalfields. 31:23.710 --> 31:24.410 Something was different. 31:24.990 --> 31:30.310 Plus, the flood, instead of a miracle, gave them warning to repent. 31:30.850 --> 31:32.610 They could watch Noah building that boat every day. 31:34.170 --> 31:35.530 They couldn't watch a miracle coming. 31:36.330 --> 31:38.310 He could preach, hey, 10 more days, you're all going to drop over. 31:38.390 --> 31:38.790 Yeah, right. 31:38.890 --> 31:39.270 Yeah, right. 31:39.470 --> 31:41.690 But they could see that boat going together day after day. 31:42.210 --> 31:45.030 It was a constant reminder that they could have gotten saved. 31:45.230 --> 31:46.290 And they could have, and should have. 31:46.850 --> 31:49.750 So, how could a flood cover the whole world? 31:50.090 --> 31:52.810 I was debating at University of West Florida, my first debate I ever had, 31:53.410 --> 31:54.990 here in Pensacola about 15 years ago. 31:55.590 --> 31:58.990 I had a few debates with my wife before that, and I lost those all, so I was not 31:58.990 --> 32:00.370 excited about debating this professor. 32:00.710 --> 32:02.590 But you're laughing, you know, don't you guys? 32:04.750 --> 32:07.730 But I debated this professor, and one of the kids in the audience, we had Q&A time 32:07.730 --> 32:10.810 afterwards, he said, Hovind, could it rain enough to cover the earth? 32:12.110 --> 32:14.290 He said, you think it really rained enough to cover Mount Everest? 32:15.030 --> 32:18.270 He said, don't you know when it rains, the heat is released? 32:18.430 --> 32:20.010 I said, oh yeah, I understand, I taught physics. 32:20.130 --> 32:21.870 It's called the latent heat of condensation. 32:23.090 --> 32:27.010 He said, well, heat is released when moisture turns to liquid, and if it rained 32:27.010 --> 32:29.590 enough to cover Mount Everest, it would completely cook the world. 32:30.850 --> 32:31.710 I said, you're right. 32:32.350 --> 32:34.090 He said, but you think it rained enough to cover Mount Everest? 32:34.190 --> 32:35.270 I said, no, I never said that. 32:37.010 --> 32:40.230 No, you're assuming that Mount Everest was there to begin with, and you're assuming 32:40.230 --> 32:41.350 all the water came from rain. 32:41.690 --> 32:43.670 You've got two very false assumptions in your thinking here. 32:44.190 --> 32:44.930 What about this flood? 32:45.150 --> 32:46.230 Several theories about the flood. 32:46.270 --> 32:49.050 I'm going to give you the Hovind theory of what I think happened to cause that flood, 32:49.450 --> 32:52.290 what triggered it, where did the water come from, where did it go, and what 32:52.290 --> 32:53.510 effects can we see today? 32:54.090 --> 32:57.070 Now we cover much on what the original creation was like on Seminar Part 2. 32:57.390 --> 33:01.770 The Bible says there was a canopy of water above the atmosphere and water under the 33:01.770 --> 33:02.470 crust of the earth. 33:02.930 --> 33:04.610 Psalm 24 says, the earth is the Lord's. 33:05.010 --> 33:08.350 He founded it upon the seas and established it upon the floods. 33:09.150 --> 33:13.990 Psalm 33 says, He layeth up the depth in storehouses. 33:14.710 --> 33:16.410 The water used to be under the crust of the earth. 33:16.510 --> 33:18.970 Psalm 136, He stretched out the earth above the waters. 33:19.790 --> 33:22.690 See, when God first made the world, the crust of the earth was stretched over. 33:23.670 --> 33:26.550 Most of the water that's now on top was underneath the crust of the earth. 33:27.030 --> 33:28.850 There were vast subterranean water chambers. 33:29.590 --> 33:33.730 There are still huge amounts of water, huge water chambers down in the earth. 33:34.210 --> 33:37.410 The Japanese drilled down, I forget how far, just recently in early 2003, 33:37.810 --> 33:40.770 and they said there's probably more water deep in the crust of the earth than there 33:40.770 --> 33:41.770 is on the surface of the earth. 33:42.470 --> 33:43.750 Just found earlier this year. 33:44.130 --> 33:45.550 There's a whole lot of water down there. 33:46.310 --> 33:49.710 Well, the Bible says the fountains of the deep broke open. 33:50.510 --> 33:52.390 And it says all of them in one day broke open. 33:53.050 --> 33:53.910 Here's what I think happened. 33:54.410 --> 33:56.390 The earth has cracks all over it. 33:56.870 --> 33:58.070 It seems like a baseball. 33:58.450 --> 34:01.910 The Mid-Atlantic Ridge, the San Andreas Fault, the Hayward Fault, the New Madrid 34:01.910 --> 34:03.550 Fault, the Golden Fault, the Ring of Fire. 34:03.930 --> 34:07.450 None of them are my fault, but there's no question the earth is all busted up into 34:07.450 --> 34:10.850 plates and the earth has gone through some really hard times. 34:10.970 --> 34:12.090 It's busted up like an eggshell. 34:12.710 --> 34:16.090 I think that happened at the time of the flood, not millions of years ago. 34:16.430 --> 34:20.790 The Bible says in Job 38, Who shut up the sea with doors, when it break forth as if 34:20.790 --> 34:21.790 it had issued out of the womb? 34:23.430 --> 34:24.650 And break forth my decree. 34:24.730 --> 34:26.170 He said, he put my decreed place. 34:26.370 --> 34:27.650 Your proud ways can't go any farther. 34:27.730 --> 34:29.630 There's a beach that stops it from coming up here. 34:30.390 --> 34:33.990 But the Bible says the water gushed out of the earth like water out of a womb. 34:34.710 --> 34:36.030 I delivered one of my kids at home. 34:36.670 --> 34:39.910 If you've never seen a baby get born, you need to see that. 34:40.050 --> 34:41.830 One of my friends in college, he was up there getting ready. 34:41.910 --> 34:42.730 His wife's going to have a baby. 34:42.790 --> 34:44.430 She's standing there fixing breakfast and her water broke. 34:45.890 --> 34:46.630 All over the floor. 34:46.690 --> 34:48.950 He came running in to see what's going on and he slipped and broke his arm. 34:50.430 --> 34:51.750 She had to drive him to the hospital. 34:54.070 --> 34:55.790 Set his arm, I'll have this kid, would you believe? 34:56.190 --> 34:58.790 I mean the water just gushes out sometimes when they have a baby. 34:58.970 --> 35:01.610 And God said the water gushed out of the earth when it broke up. 35:01.710 --> 35:03.570 I think the plates of the earth broke apart. 35:04.070 --> 35:08.630 The fault lines are still there today from what happened during that flood. 35:09.550 --> 35:12.690 And the earth is broken up into plates and the plates are still moving a little bit. 35:13.090 --> 35:16.130 Which causes earthquakes, volcanoes, you know, I've studied all that stuff for 35:16.130 --> 35:16.710 years. 35:16.930 --> 35:18.550 People say, wait a minute, isn't that proof of Pangaea? 35:18.670 --> 35:20.090 No, that's not proof of Pangaea. 35:20.670 --> 35:22.310 Textbooks say all the continents fit together. 35:22.990 --> 35:23.650 Well, that's baloney. 35:23.790 --> 35:25.670 They don't tell the kids the truth about this. 35:25.930 --> 35:28.530 This textbook says South America and Africa seem to be a perfect fit. 35:29.510 --> 35:32.810 That's a pure coincidence, folks, based on the water level. 35:33.310 --> 35:35.730 Here's the evidence they give to support continental drift. 35:36.110 --> 35:37.950 They'll say the shapes of the continent seem to fit. 35:38.370 --> 35:40.370 Similar fossils are found on opposite sides of the ocean. 35:40.930 --> 35:41.870 Textbook says, see this? 35:42.110 --> 35:43.970 Same fossils found in Africa and South America. 35:44.990 --> 35:45.510 Well, so what? 35:45.530 --> 35:47.410 Those same fossils are actually found all over the world. 35:48.090 --> 35:50.010 This is just as much proof of a worldwide flood. 35:50.650 --> 35:52.390 How far could the dead animals float in a year? 35:54.350 --> 35:58.010 So they point out the two found on opposite sides of the ocean, but they 35:58.010 --> 35:59.550 don't point out the same ones are found everywhere. 36:00.390 --> 36:02.910 They don't point that out because they're trying to push off a theory on the kids. 36:04.310 --> 36:07.150 This is evidence of a flood, not evidence of Pangaea. 36:07.830 --> 36:10.610 And then they say there are magnetic reversals in the ocean floor. 36:10.690 --> 36:12.030 No, there are no magnetic reversals. 36:12.130 --> 36:12.770 We'll get into that in a second. 36:13.010 --> 36:13.750 They don't tell the kids. 36:13.830 --> 36:15.910 They shrank Africa nearly 40% to make them fit. 36:17.370 --> 36:21.970 If you cut it out on a... get a globe and cut Africa out and then cut South America 36:21.970 --> 36:25.450 out and compare it to what they did in their textbook, they shrank Africa between 36:25.450 --> 36:26.570 35 and 40%. 36:26.570 --> 36:29.830 All of Mexico and Central America are gone in the Pangaea maps. 36:32.610 --> 36:38.530 They don't tell the kids that Europe and South America rotated one way and Africa 36:38.530 --> 36:39.550 was rotated a different way. 36:41.270 --> 36:43.990 They also don't tell the kids what I think ought to be obvious to a kindergartner. 36:44.750 --> 36:48.070 Did you know if you take the water out of the oceans, you will notice there is dirt 36:48.070 --> 36:48.410 underneath? 36:51.010 --> 36:51.370 There is. 36:52.330 --> 36:53.850 I mean the oceans actually have a bottom. 36:55.670 --> 36:57.150 People say, do you think the continents were connected? 36:57.430 --> 36:57.890 I say, what do you mean? 36:57.990 --> 36:58.250 Were. 36:58.350 --> 36:58.890 They still are. 37:00.250 --> 37:01.670 It's just the low places are full of water. 37:01.750 --> 37:02.050 That's all. 37:02.250 --> 37:05.730 It's not like these are hollow under here and they are floating around like lily 37:05.730 --> 37:06.370 pads in a bathtub. 37:07.130 --> 37:08.530 The earth has a solid crust. 37:09.410 --> 37:11.610 I think the Pangaea theory is one of the dumbest theories in the world. 37:13.070 --> 37:14.650 Textbooks say there are magnetic reversals. 37:14.770 --> 37:15.870 No, there are magnetic reversals. 37:15.950 --> 37:18.450 Walt Brown has got a great section in his book about the so-called magnetic 37:18.450 --> 37:19.030 reversals. 37:19.090 --> 37:22.450 If you want to read more on that or go to his website creationscience.com or you can 37:22.450 --> 37:23.270 get the book through our ministry. 37:24.690 --> 37:28.090 Textbooks say these reversals in the magnetic field indicate millions of years 37:28.090 --> 37:29.370 of spreading of the ocean floor. 37:30.150 --> 37:33.570 Well I agree the ocean floor is spreading and I agree the continents are moving. 37:33.930 --> 37:35.390 But I don't think it's been millions of years. 37:35.890 --> 37:37.210 This is a lie in the textbooks. 37:37.370 --> 37:38.710 There aren't really magnetic reversals. 37:39.490 --> 37:41.650 There are areas of stronger and weaker magnetism. 37:42.070 --> 37:42.630 Here is what happened. 37:43.210 --> 37:47.190 They measured the magnetic intensity in the layers of the earth, especially the 37:47.190 --> 37:50.870 mid-Atlantic ridge, and they found some places were stronger magnetically and some 37:50.870 --> 37:51.590 places were weaker. 37:51.870 --> 37:53.810 Stronger field, weaker field, stronger, weaker. 37:53.930 --> 37:55.510 So they drew a sine wave. 37:55.890 --> 37:59.230 Then somebody drew a line through the middle and called everything below average 37:59.230 --> 37:59.890 a reversal. 38:01.190 --> 38:02.610 Below average is not reversed. 38:03.230 --> 38:06.790 If we line up everybody in the room and find out the average height is 5'7", 38:07.270 --> 38:10.830 does that mean everybody less than 5'7 is reversed down in the ground or are they 38:10.830 --> 38:13.130 just less than 5'7"? 38:13.130 --> 38:17.430 See, less magnetic intensity does not mean reversed magnetic intensity. 38:18.090 --> 38:21.630 There's no place on the ocean floor where a north-seeking compass will point south 38:21.630 --> 38:22.790 in relation to the rock. 38:23.070 --> 38:27.750 When they drill down it gets even more jumbled up, as this graph shows from Brian 38:27.750 --> 38:29.830 Young's book, Doubts About Creation. 38:29.910 --> 38:31.030 You can get that through our ministry. 38:31.090 --> 38:31.730 How much is that, Dan? 38:31.770 --> 38:33.170 Do you remember what we sell that for? 38:34.190 --> 38:34.890 $11.95. 38:35.090 --> 38:35.670 Excellent book. 38:36.090 --> 38:36.910 I think that's correct. 38:37.030 --> 38:37.650 You can get our website. 38:38.910 --> 38:40.870 If you have doubts about creation, read that book. 38:40.930 --> 38:41.510 It will straighten them out. 38:42.310 --> 38:46.230 Actually, the magnetic field is getting weaker, which indicates the Earth is less 38:46.230 --> 38:47.450 than 25,000 years old. 38:48.790 --> 38:50.830 Of course, the evolutionists can't have that. 38:51.390 --> 38:55.150 But the magnetic field's decline is really a proof for a young Earth. 38:55.810 --> 38:59.870 Walt Brown's theory is excellent on the fault lines and how the plates spread 38:59.870 --> 39:00.090 about. 39:00.190 --> 39:00.790 We'll cover that in a second. 39:00.830 --> 39:02.610 Here's Walt Brown's hydroplate theory. 39:02.930 --> 39:09.190 We can see on our planet 17 very strange features, which can now be systematically 39:09.190 --> 39:15.690 explained as a result of a cataclysmic global flood whose waters erupted from 39:15.690 --> 39:21.990 subterranean chambers with an energy release exceeding the explosion of 10 39:21.990 --> 39:24.110 billion hydrogen bombs. 39:24.890 --> 39:28.310 This explanation shows us just how rapidly major mountains formed. 39:28.850 --> 39:34.630 It explains the coal and oil deposits, the rapid continental drift, why on the 39:34.630 --> 39:39.410 ocean floor there are huge trenches and hundreds of canyons and volcanoes. 39:40.110 --> 39:44.670 It explains the formation of the layered strata and most of the fossils, 39:45.510 --> 39:52.730 the frozen mammoths, the so-called ice ages, and major land canyons, especially 39:52.730 --> 39:54.010 the Grand Canyon. 39:55.270 --> 40:00.770 The pre-flood Earth probably had only one very large supercontinent covered with 40:00.770 --> 40:01.870 lush vegetation. 40:02.630 --> 40:04.870 There were seas and major rivers. 40:05.750 --> 40:09.690 The mountains were smaller than today's, but perhaps 9,000 feet high. 40:10.670 --> 40:14.490 According to the hydroplate theory, the pre-flood Earth had a lot of 40:14.490 --> 40:18.390 subterranean water, about half of what is now in our oceans. 40:19.230 --> 40:24.750 This water was contained in interconnected chambers forming a thin spherical shell 40:24.750 --> 40:29.370 about half a mile thick, perhaps 10 miles below the Earth's surface. 40:30.050 --> 40:34.670 Increasing pressure in the subterranean water stretched the crust just as a 40:34.670 --> 40:37.170 balloon stretches when the pressure inside increases. 40:37.970 --> 40:42.610 Failure in the crust began with a microscopic crack which grew in both 40:42.610 --> 40:45.030 directions at about 3 miles per second. 40:45.930 --> 40:50.370 The crack, following the path of least resistance, encircled the globe in about 40:50.370 --> 40:51.130 two hours. 40:52.030 --> 40:57.390 As the crack raced around the Earth, the overlying rock crust opened up like a 40:57.390 --> 40:59.130 rip in a tightly stretched cloth. 41:00.130 --> 41:04.310 The subterranean water was under extreme pressure because of the weight of the 10 41:04.310 --> 41:06.410 miles of rock pressing down on it. 41:07.010 --> 41:10.150 So the water exploded violently out of the rupture. 41:11.370 --> 41:16.450 All along this globe-encircling rupture, fountains of water jetted supersonically 41:16.450 --> 41:19.330 almost 20 miles into the atmosphere. 41:20.050 --> 41:24.170 The spray from this enormous fountain produced torrential rains such as the 41:24.170 --> 41:27.110 Earth has never experienced before or after. 41:27.830 --> 41:33.050 The Bible states that all the fountains of the great deep burst open on one day. 41:33.550 --> 41:39.230 And it describes these events about 5,000 years ago, which we can now tie together 41:39.230 --> 41:40.050 scientifically. 41:40.730 --> 41:45.110 Some of the water jetting high above the cold stratosphere froze into supercooled 41:45.110 --> 41:51.330 ice crystals and produced some massive ice dumps, burying, suffocating, and instantly 41:51.330 --> 41:56.250 freezing many animals, including the frozen mammoths of Siberia and Alaska. 41:57.250 --> 42:00.810 The high-pressure fountains eroded the rock on both sides of the crack, 42:01.370 --> 42:05.970 producing huge volumes of sediments that settled out of this muddy water all over 42:05.970 --> 42:06.350 the Earth. 42:06.830 --> 42:10.770 These sediments trapped and buried plants and animals, forming the fossil record. 42:11.450 --> 42:13.610 This erosion widened the rupture. 42:14.630 --> 42:18.510 Eventually, the width was so great that the compressed rock beneath the 42:18.510 --> 42:23.530 subterranean chamber sprung upward, giving birth to the mid-oceanic ridge that 42:23.530 --> 42:25.930 wraps around the Earth like the seam of a baseball. 42:27.090 --> 42:32.490 The continental plates, the hydroplates, still with lubricating water beneath them, 42:32.810 --> 42:36.530 slid downhill away from the rising mid-Atlantic ridge. 42:37.350 --> 42:42.230 After the massive, slowly accelerating continental plates reached speeds of about 42:42.230 --> 42:48.790 45 miles per hour, they ran into resistances, compressed and buckled. 42:49.530 --> 42:53.070 The portions of the hydroplate that buckled down formed ocean trenches. 42:53.390 --> 42:55.230 Those that buckled upward formed mountains. 42:55.930 --> 43:01.070 This is why the major mountain chains are parallel to the oceanic ridges from which 43:01.070 --> 43:01.830 they slid. 43:02.830 --> 43:07.890 The hydroplates, in sliding away from the oceanic ridges, opened up very deep ocean 43:07.890 --> 43:10.730 basins into which the floodwaters retreated. 43:11.570 --> 43:16.570 On the continents, each bowl-shaped depression or basin was naturally left 43:16.570 --> 43:19.850 brimful of water, producing many post-flood lakes. 43:22.050 --> 43:26.230 The demonstrations you have just witnessed of a massive worldwide catastrophe in 43:26.230 --> 43:30.170 antiquity supports the biblical story of the deluge in every detail. 43:31.510 --> 43:34.190 All right, that's Walt Brown's hydroplate theory, which I think is excellent. 43:34.330 --> 43:36.870 A couple key things he talks about in there is that the canyons had to form 43:36.870 --> 43:39.190 quickly as lakes overflowed their boundary. 43:39.530 --> 43:41.350 But the other thing is about the mid-Atlantic ridge. 43:41.390 --> 43:42.170 What would cause that? 43:42.690 --> 43:46.130 This picture here shows that if a spring is compressed and you have two bricks on 43:46.130 --> 43:49.570 top of it, as the bricks slide apart, all of a sudden the spring is going to pop 43:49.570 --> 43:50.330 up in the center. 43:51.890 --> 43:54.850 Apparently the earth was originally created with a layer of dirt for Adam and 43:54.850 --> 43:55.850 Eve to grow their stuff in. 43:56.230 --> 43:57.050 And then granite. 43:57.410 --> 43:58.930 Granite is amazing rock. 43:59.050 --> 44:01.850 There is a place right behind the church here that sells big slabs of beautiful 44:01.850 --> 44:03.130 granite for countertops and stuff. 44:03.470 --> 44:04.530 And I got these samples from him. 44:04.570 --> 44:05.270 This one is from Brazil. 44:05.970 --> 44:09.250 Granite apparently was the original basement rock and it was not formed by 44:09.250 --> 44:10.710 melting rock cooling down. 44:11.250 --> 44:16.430 Well, I mean, Halos.com, Robert Gentry has an excellent book called Creation's Tiny 44:16.430 --> 44:19.510 Mystery, which proves granite was never a hot molten mass. 44:20.130 --> 44:22.350 It was created instantly, like the Bible says under water. 44:22.410 --> 44:23.330 We cover that in video 7. 44:23.930 --> 44:27.270 Under the granite was apparently a layer of water where the subterranean water 44:27.270 --> 44:27.790 chambers were. 44:28.090 --> 44:30.230 And then a layer of basalt, which is a different kind of rock. 44:30.770 --> 44:35.230 The basalt underneath would spring up into the crack as the mid-Atlantic ridge got 44:35.230 --> 44:35.610 wider. 44:36.290 --> 44:40.350 As these ridges widened, as Walt Brown says, it's going to spring up. 44:40.410 --> 44:44.110 The basalt will bounce up in the center and the plates will slide away. 44:45.030 --> 44:47.690 So there was movement of the plates, but that's not proof for Pangaea. 44:48.030 --> 44:51.630 Now what happened, as the basalt springs up, it's going to crack and water is going 44:51.630 --> 44:52.410 to fill in the cracks. 44:53.070 --> 44:55.370 Now today, they're not only full of water, they're full of sediments. 44:55.490 --> 44:57.190 It's been 40, 400 years since the flood. 44:57.290 --> 44:58.050 The cracks are gone. 44:58.130 --> 44:58.870 They're all full of dirt. 45:00.030 --> 45:03.790 But when they measured the magnetic intensity, what they're actually finding 45:03.790 --> 45:06.390 was where the cracks, where the water rushed in. 45:06.850 --> 45:10.770 Because as basalt cools down, it stores a stronger magnetic field. 45:10.930 --> 45:13.750 If the basalt is hot, it doesn't store a magnetic field. 45:14.050 --> 45:17.170 You can put a magnet in your oven, heat it up, it will lose its magnetic 45:17.170 --> 45:17.590 strength. 45:18.910 --> 45:21.830 So it's simply finding the cracks where the earth busted up into plates. 45:21.890 --> 45:22.570 That's all they're finding. 45:22.670 --> 45:23.530 Get the book if you want more. 45:23.530 --> 45:25.890 He's got a whole section on that in his book here in the beginning. 45:26.550 --> 45:31.630 Hot basalt loses its magnetism and cold basalt stores a strong magnetic field. 45:31.670 --> 45:34.230 So that's what they were finding at the bottom of the mid-Atlantic ridge. 45:34.310 --> 45:36.890 There are no places where a north-seeking compass points south. 45:37.270 --> 45:40.910 Now it is true, there is still a little bit of subduction today, as in, 45:40.990 --> 45:43.130 you know, plates of the earth are being drawn under. 45:43.590 --> 45:47.150 If you ever cook pudding or something, you know, and it develops a skin on it. 45:47.510 --> 45:50.590 Sometimes the skin on the pudding all of a sudden will just sink to the bottom. 45:52.010 --> 45:55.130 And if you push it down in one place, it will draw more down with it, 45:55.170 --> 45:55.370 okay? 45:55.650 --> 45:58.450 I think some of that is happening or has happened with the crust of the earth. 45:58.790 --> 46:00.090 Sections have slid down under. 46:00.490 --> 46:03.870 Hawaii, for instance, is over a hot spot and it appears to be moving. 46:03.970 --> 46:05.850 I think there is plate subduction right there. 46:06.250 --> 46:08.130 But I don't think it's been going on for millions of years. 46:08.730 --> 46:11.930 The other factor that really is confusing for evolutionists is when you look at the 46:11.930 --> 46:14.370 bottom of the ocean, there's not much sediment down there. 46:15.410 --> 46:17.130 All the dirt washes into the oceans. 46:17.130 --> 46:18.550 You'd think the oceans would fill up with dirt. 46:19.230 --> 46:22.150 But when they check it out, there's only a few thousand years worth of dirt down 46:22.150 --> 46:22.350 there. 46:23.230 --> 46:26.810 So why don't the oceans have huge layers of really, really deep sediment? 46:27.770 --> 46:30.550 Well, one theory is they're not millions of years old. 46:31.130 --> 46:33.770 The other theory is, well, it's being recycled, you know, it's being pulled 46:33.770 --> 46:33.990 under. 46:34.670 --> 46:37.970 That's why this plate movement theory is so important to the evolutionists. 46:38.230 --> 46:40.450 They have actually several serious problems they're trying to overcome. 46:40.650 --> 46:41.190 We'll cover in a minute. 46:41.670 --> 46:44.530 It's true there seems to be a little bit of plate subduction sliding under other 46:44.530 --> 46:44.750 plates. 46:44.750 --> 46:45.230 I agree. 46:45.590 --> 46:46.910 It's true the earth is busted up. 46:46.970 --> 46:47.610 We have fault lines. 46:47.770 --> 46:48.130 I agree. 46:48.610 --> 46:50.610 That doesn't prove it's been going for millions of years. 46:51.790 --> 46:54.570 The plates are moving, but it doesn't prove time, okay? 46:55.070 --> 46:57.350 And it doesn't prove the rate we see today has always been the same. 46:57.850 --> 46:59.570 I think Walt Brown's hydroplate theory is excellent. 46:59.750 --> 47:03.150 As the water is escaping from underneath, it's going to provide lubrication to slide 47:03.150 --> 47:03.970 these things faster. 47:04.350 --> 47:06.050 Today, there's very little water left down there. 47:06.650 --> 47:09.790 And students, I think, ought to be taught there are other options to this one silly 47:09.790 --> 47:10.070 theory. 47:10.490 --> 47:12.130 We live right here in Pensacola, Florida. 47:12.610 --> 47:16.550 My place is 2.6 miles south of Interstate 10 off Highway 29. 47:17.470 --> 47:20.390 If I go up to the interstate and stand there and I watch somebody headed east 47:20.390 --> 47:24.550 toward Jacksonville, does that prove he started in Los Angeles four days ago? 47:26.770 --> 47:29.230 No, they might have just got on at the next exit down there, right? 47:30.150 --> 47:33.910 The fact that we see the plates moving does not prove anything as far as time. 47:34.270 --> 47:35.410 Here's the flaw in their logic. 47:36.310 --> 47:40.130 They look at the ocean, the Atlantic Ocean spreading about three centimeters a year, 47:40.230 --> 47:42.390 about an inch, a little over an inch a year it is spreading. 47:43.390 --> 47:45.750 And they'll say, see, look at the distance across there. 47:45.830 --> 47:48.450 It's so many thousand miles in one inch a year that proves, you know, blah, 47:48.530 --> 47:49.390 blah, blah, millions of years. 47:49.710 --> 47:52.210 That proves you can be making some assumptions in your calculations. 47:52.750 --> 47:53.990 That's all that proves, okay? 47:54.610 --> 47:57.910 Plus they're forgetting the continental shelf and forgetting the shapes of the 47:57.910 --> 47:59.330 continents is just a pure coincidence. 47:59.890 --> 48:04.010 If you raise the water 600 feet, you know, from here to the highway, 48:04.930 --> 48:06.110 Chicago is underwater. 48:07.650 --> 48:09.890 The oceans average 12,000 feet deep. 48:10.430 --> 48:12.710 Just a 600 foot change would put Chicago underwater. 48:13.770 --> 48:15.770 We'll show more on that in the second session here. 48:16.310 --> 48:18.870 Continental drift theory in the textbooks is trying to avoid two embarrassing 48:18.870 --> 48:19.270 problems. 48:19.370 --> 48:22.130 Number one, the magnetic field is getting weaker, saying the earth is young, 48:22.250 --> 48:25.450 and there's not much dirt in the bottom of the ocean, saying the earth is young. 48:26.610 --> 48:30.030 Those are two evidences of young earth that they're trying desperately to avoid 48:30.030 --> 48:31.550 with their continental drift theory. 48:32.350 --> 48:33.850 Okay, so what about the ice age? 48:34.010 --> 48:36.210 Is it true that the earth was covered with ice? 48:36.830 --> 48:39.450 Well, maybe not the whole earth, but there was ice all the way down to 48:39.450 --> 48:40.330 Kansas City, Missouri. 48:41.470 --> 48:45.130 I was just up in, I've just been everywhere. 48:45.270 --> 48:49.330 I was in British Columbia the day before yesterday, someplace where they have these 48:49.330 --> 48:52.630 large terminal moraines and drumlins, big huge piles of rocks. 48:52.730 --> 48:55.530 You know, as I've studied this for years in earth science, it's fascinating to see 48:55.530 --> 48:59.190 ice when it melts back, leaves behind a pile of rocks. 48:59.950 --> 49:03.510 When I was in Washington climbing Mount Rainier, my sister lives out there, 49:03.930 --> 49:08.150 they had a picture of this huge pile of rocks and somebody standing on top of it 49:08.150 --> 49:09.150 in front of this big glacier. 49:09.770 --> 49:10.830 They're going to get their picture taken. 49:11.430 --> 49:14.250 You know, the man's up there standing on this massive pile of big boulders, 49:14.350 --> 49:18.070 you know, and he's smiling, not realizing, you know why that pile of boulders is 49:18.070 --> 49:18.250 there? 49:19.210 --> 49:21.370 They're coming off the top of that glacier. 49:22.990 --> 49:26.770 So his wife takes the picture just as one about the size of a basketball falls down 49:26.770 --> 49:30.350 just behind his head from about 130 feet up. 49:31.930 --> 49:34.310 If that would hit him on the head, he'd have to open his shirt to eat the 49:34.310 --> 49:35.110 rest of his life, man. 49:38.290 --> 49:40.770 Glaciers leave behind piles of rocks when they melt back. 49:40.950 --> 49:43.050 If it's on the side, it's called a lateral moraine. 49:43.110 --> 49:44.770 If it's in front, it's called a terminal moraine. 49:45.110 --> 49:48.390 But there's no question, there is obvious evidence the earth had an ice age. 49:49.390 --> 49:55.670 All over Ohio and Indiana, a famous drumlin where ice carved around a hill is 49:55.670 --> 49:58.310 Bunker's Hill or Breed's Hill, where the Revolutionary War started. 49:59.050 --> 50:00.410 That's formed by ice. 50:00.770 --> 50:02.250 There's no question there was an ice age. 50:02.350 --> 50:04.330 But the question is, where does it fit into the Bible? 50:05.130 --> 50:06.750 And was it really millions of years ago? 50:07.610 --> 50:11.010 As these glaciers plow ahead, they leave behind all these rocks and they melt back 50:11.010 --> 50:11.810 and the rocks stay there. 50:12.790 --> 50:15.350 And all over places in Illinois and Ohio, you see these piles. 50:15.470 --> 50:17.070 If you dig down in, you hit big boulders. 50:17.410 --> 50:19.010 And they're usually rounded, smooth boulders. 50:19.990 --> 50:21.310 So what caused the ice age? 50:21.330 --> 50:22.390 We're going to cover that in the Hovind Theory. 50:22.510 --> 50:23.550 And what froze the mammoths? 50:24.030 --> 50:28.630 Those big, hairy, hippy elephants that are found frozen, standing up sometimes, 50:28.930 --> 50:30.010 food still in their mouth. 50:31.070 --> 50:33.550 The Beresovka mammoth, found 1901, was a famous one. 50:34.330 --> 50:38.530 The trunk and front foot had been eaten by wolves apparently, but the rest of it was 50:38.530 --> 50:39.450 still frozen in the ground. 50:40.270 --> 50:42.350 They dug it out and put it in a museum in Russia. 50:43.070 --> 50:44.930 How do you freeze an elephant standing up? 50:45.470 --> 50:47.690 And it's not just one, I mean many thousands. 50:48.170 --> 50:51.050 In one year, they removed 20,000 pairs of tusks. 50:52.050 --> 50:52.450 One year. 50:53.670 --> 50:55.510 It's called fossil ivory. 50:55.650 --> 50:57.470 This is one right here, a small one from a baby one. 50:57.850 --> 51:01.650 I've got a friend in Alaska that goes over to Siberia and he buys and trades in 51:01.650 --> 51:03.290 fossil ivory, carves things out of it. 51:03.950 --> 51:08.870 Amazing, beautiful little carvings out of, you know, ancient ivory that was frozen. 51:09.550 --> 51:11.290 Well, how do you freeze an elephant? 51:12.130 --> 51:12.970 It's not just one. 51:13.070 --> 51:15.810 Walt Brown's got a page in his book here about the map showing where all the 51:15.810 --> 51:21.410 different frozen mammoth and frozen rhinoceros are found, frozen camels near 51:21.410 --> 51:23.330 the North Pole, frozen bobcat. 51:23.970 --> 51:24.770 What happened? 51:25.490 --> 51:27.890 How do you explain this from a biblical worldview? 51:28.530 --> 51:31.530 Well, some of the mammoths are frozen standing up, not all of them. 51:31.890 --> 51:34.730 They have undigested food still in their stomach and still in their teeth. 51:34.850 --> 51:36.250 They didn't even swallow their last bite. 51:36.810 --> 51:37.690 They died of suffocation. 51:38.270 --> 51:39.470 There's no water found in the lungs. 51:40.610 --> 51:43.930 And the small ice crystals in the blood indicate they probably froze in less than 51:43.930 --> 51:44.570 five hours. 51:46.270 --> 51:48.430 How do you freeze an elephant in less than five hours? 51:49.350 --> 51:52.670 I got curious about this, so I called Birdseye Frozen Food People in New York. 51:53.430 --> 51:54.710 I called physics professors. 51:54.910 --> 51:55.690 I called meatpackers. 51:55.790 --> 51:58.050 I called everybody I could think of, butchers that might have an answer. 51:58.630 --> 52:00.370 And I said, how on earth would you freeze an elephant? 52:02.810 --> 52:04.490 I called Birdseye. 52:04.590 --> 52:05.490 I talked to one of the scientists there. 52:05.550 --> 52:08.150 I said, if I stuck an elephant in the freezer, what would happen? 52:09.630 --> 52:11.030 It was silence on the other end of the line. 52:14.070 --> 52:16.690 He said, you'd have a crowded freezer. 52:17.850 --> 52:19.210 I said, well, yeah, I know that. 52:19.270 --> 52:22.090 But I said, how long would it take to freeze an elephant? 52:23.090 --> 52:26.950 He said, well, normal freezers are about, you know, 10 below, maybe 10 above, 52:27.090 --> 52:27.730 zero. 52:28.270 --> 52:30.130 Probably take about five hours to freeze an elephant. 52:31.350 --> 52:32.730 I said, well, that's not going to work. 52:32.790 --> 52:35.470 I got to freeze my elephant in, you know, he said, probably take about 52:35.470 --> 52:36.010 five days. 52:36.090 --> 52:36.290 I'm sorry. 52:36.330 --> 52:37.970 He said, take about five days to freeze an elephant. 52:38.930 --> 52:41.710 I said, that's not going to work because the food in the stomach is going to rot in 52:41.710 --> 52:42.310 five days. 52:42.730 --> 52:44.090 You know, the acid's still working. 52:44.270 --> 52:45.150 It doesn't know he's dead. 52:45.630 --> 52:46.830 All it knows is it's acid. 52:49.090 --> 52:51.030 It's going to freeze my elephant in five hours. 52:52.230 --> 52:54.690 They said, well, then you're going to have to find something 300 below zero, 52:54.810 --> 52:55.710 like liquid nitrogen. 52:56.990 --> 52:59.290 Well, it never gets 300 below zero on earth. 52:59.590 --> 53:01.250 The coldest it has ever gotten. 53:01.750 --> 53:04.290 Here's a map from National Pornographic, a geographic. 53:05.270 --> 53:08.190 They said the coldest temperature on earth is minus 127. 53:09.710 --> 53:10.530 That's pretty chilly. 53:12.250 --> 53:15.570 I was up in Barrow, Alaska a few months ago where it gets to 80 below zero. 53:16.130 --> 53:16.630 That's chilly. 53:18.470 --> 53:20.470 But that's still not cold enough to freeze the mammoths. 53:21.510 --> 53:21.970 What happened? 53:22.990 --> 53:24.650 I talked to a guy when I was up in Alaska. 53:24.790 --> 53:27.710 He said, oh yeah, he told me he works in the oil field drilling for oil near 53:27.710 --> 53:28.010 Barrow. 53:29.050 --> 53:32.050 He said they drill down a thousand feet through permanently frozen ground, 53:32.150 --> 53:34.190 permafrost, and hit trees. 53:35.270 --> 53:37.830 He said one day they were drilling and hit a tree and they always take whatever they 53:37.830 --> 53:41.070 drill out and lay it on the ground beside them to go, you know, develop a sample of 53:41.070 --> 53:41.750 what's down in the ground. 53:42.410 --> 53:45.330 He said they drilled straight through the top of a tree that was 300 feet tall 53:46.130 --> 53:46.790 standing up. 53:48.610 --> 53:50.690 This is on the north slope of Alaska. 53:51.550 --> 53:52.670 Folks, I was just up there. 53:52.910 --> 53:53.610 There are no trees. 53:54.290 --> 53:57.370 We saw one tree growing in a Chinese restaurant inside, you know, about this 53:57.370 --> 53:57.530 big. 53:58.930 --> 53:59.550 That's it. 53:59.810 --> 54:01.430 There are no trees in Barrow, Alaska. 54:01.770 --> 54:03.650 There are certainly no trees 300 feet tall. 54:04.950 --> 54:07.250 There are very few trees in the world 300 feet tall. 54:07.350 --> 54:08.570 You know, some of the redwoods are that size. 54:08.690 --> 54:13.650 But how do you get a 300 foot tree standing up under a thousand feet of 54:13.650 --> 54:14.550 permanently frozen ground? 54:15.870 --> 54:16.530 What happened? 54:17.130 --> 54:20.470 Well, I'm going to give the Hovind theory of what I think caused the flood in the 54:20.470 --> 54:20.990 days of Noah. 54:21.630 --> 54:22.870 We're going to give this in the next session. 54:22.990 --> 54:24.270 Mostly, I'll just give you a few things to consider. 54:24.610 --> 54:26.110 Now, many people have contributed to this. 54:26.270 --> 54:27.630 I'll take the blame for it if it's wrong. 54:27.710 --> 54:28.490 It's just a theory. 54:28.590 --> 54:30.610 Some people say, I think your theory wrong about this little point. 54:30.710 --> 54:31.950 Okay, then modify the theory. 54:32.010 --> 54:32.630 That's what it's for. 54:32.910 --> 54:34.590 It's to give you a skeleton to hang the meat on. 54:34.630 --> 54:37.270 Okay, I'm going to, we're going to review a little science and then give you the 54:37.270 --> 54:37.610 Hovind theory. 54:37.670 --> 54:40.950 There's a law called the inverse square law, which says if two objects are 54:40.950 --> 54:43.830 attracted to each other, like the earth and the moon have gravity pulling them 54:43.830 --> 54:47.690 together, or two magnets, the force of attraction is inversely proportional to 54:47.690 --> 54:48.930 the square of the distance between them. 54:49.550 --> 54:52.610 In English, that means if you brought it into one half the distance, it would 54:52.610 --> 54:54.390 quadruple the attraction, not double it. 54:55.210 --> 54:58.690 Inverse square laws apply when you're dealing with forces involving gravity, 54:59.190 --> 55:01.210 light, magnetism, and girls. 55:02.890 --> 55:06.130 See, when you're half the distance, the attraction is quadrupled, not double. 55:07.010 --> 55:08.130 Many guys don't understand that. 55:08.210 --> 55:09.450 See, I travel every week. 55:09.530 --> 55:13.590 I've been home seven Sundays in the last 14 years, which means I get to come home 55:13.590 --> 55:13.970 every week. 55:15.030 --> 55:17.990 I get 10 feet away from my wife and it's, hello dear, how are you doing? 55:18.270 --> 55:20.810 You know, when you get five feet away, it's four times the attraction, 55:20.970 --> 55:21.310 not two. 55:22.450 --> 55:24.310 When you get real close, it's just too late. 55:24.430 --> 55:27.910 Okay, overpowers all resistance at that distance. 55:28.210 --> 55:31.190 So stay 10 feet away, guys, your problems will be solved. 55:31.510 --> 55:34.690 Anyway, next thing you need to consider, when a top is spinning, it behaves in a 55:34.690 --> 55:35.470 very peculiar way. 55:35.930 --> 55:39.610 If a spinning object is struck by something like a gyroscope, if you bump 55:39.610 --> 55:43.830 it, it'll wobble for a while and then recover spinning, but it'll be spinning at 55:43.830 --> 55:44.530 a strange angle. 55:45.470 --> 55:49.050 Spinning tops follow actually a very predictable pattern when they're struck by 55:49.050 --> 55:52.350 something, like gyroscopes, or with the bicycle wheels full of water that we have 55:52.350 --> 55:55.130 at Dinosaur Adventure Land, come over their entire thing with our bicycle 55:55.130 --> 55:58.110 wheels, that you get them spinning and it's very hard to change the spin, 55:58.410 --> 55:59.870 but they follow a predictable path. 56:00.790 --> 56:05.610 You can actually determine when it was struck by tracing back the wobbling 56:05.610 --> 56:07.630 pattern and say, oh, it must have got hit right here. 56:08.370 --> 56:12.110 Okay, the earth obviously has had different North Poles. 56:13.510 --> 56:16.550 They tell you the earth, they build your globes, you know, it's tilted over 23 and 56:16.550 --> 56:17.070 a half degrees. 56:17.190 --> 56:21.170 Oh, it spins this way actually, but it's tilted 23 and a half degrees. 56:21.410 --> 56:22.950 It wasn't always that tilt. 56:23.470 --> 56:27.010 There's quite a bit of evidence on this planet that the earth had different tilts. 56:27.430 --> 56:30.490 Stonehenge, for instance, probably was built at a time to worship the sun or 56:30.490 --> 56:33.530 study the sun, but the earth had a different tilt when Stonehenge was built. 56:33.810 --> 56:35.290 Same with edXus and Amun-Ra. 56:35.990 --> 56:39.250 George Dodwell was the Australian, the government astronomer for Australia 56:39.250 --> 56:42.250 for years back from 1909 to 1950 something. 56:42.730 --> 56:44.610 He was the main astronomer for the government of Australia. 56:45.190 --> 56:49.250 He spent years studying the tilt of the earth in from historical data. 56:50.410 --> 56:53.390 He says the earth was tilted differently down through time. 56:54.030 --> 56:57.170 He made a graph of the tilt of the earth when the earth is moving. 56:57.610 --> 57:02.090 He said the change of the earth angle of declination in relation to its orbit 57:02.090 --> 57:03.410 around the sun is changing. 57:04.530 --> 57:07.630 He said after studying all this it looked to him like something struck the earth 57:07.630 --> 57:14.030 4,350 years ago and made the earth wobble for several thousand years. 57:15.450 --> 57:16.410 And now it's pretty stable. 57:16.510 --> 57:18.930 The north pole is still moving a little bit, but basically it's pretty stable. 57:19.590 --> 57:22.630 But did something strike the earth 4,350 years ago? 57:24.250 --> 57:26.270 Well, that's about the time of the biblical flood, you know. 57:26.890 --> 57:27.370 What happened? 57:28.050 --> 57:30.330 Today we're tilted over and that's what causes the seasons. 57:30.510 --> 57:32.090 The bible talks about summer and winter. 57:32.230 --> 57:35.070 The first mention of cold weather is after the flood. 57:35.150 --> 57:35.850 Genesis chapter 8. 57:36.090 --> 57:37.250 I know there were seasons before. 57:37.350 --> 57:38.890 There was apparently no cold weather before. 57:39.850 --> 57:40.750 So keep that thought in mind. 57:41.010 --> 57:43.030 Third thing, some of the planets have craters on them. 57:43.890 --> 57:45.610 The moon obviously has craters all over the place. 57:45.670 --> 57:46.390 Mercury has craters. 57:46.490 --> 57:46.930 Many of these... 57:46.930 --> 57:47.710 Mars has craters. 57:48.130 --> 57:48.750 What happened? 57:49.470 --> 57:51.310 What caused the craters on these planets? 57:52.090 --> 57:55.410 Mars has a canyon bigger than Grand Canyon and there's not a drop of water to be 57:55.410 --> 57:56.570 found to be proven on Mars. 57:57.310 --> 57:59.130 And there's a canyon bigger than Grand Canyon. 57:59.610 --> 58:05.550 And this article says it was carved in an almost instant Grand Canyon when a lake 58:05.550 --> 58:06.350 overflowed. 58:07.270 --> 58:10.150 Now why can't they look at a canyon on Mars and determine it was formed very 58:10.150 --> 58:10.510 quickly? 58:11.530 --> 58:14.590 And they can't look at Grand Canyon on Earth and can't determine that was formed 58:14.590 --> 58:15.050 very quickly. 58:16.750 --> 58:19.950 Here you've got plenty of water on Earth, almost no water on Mars. 58:20.150 --> 58:21.270 What's their logic here? 58:21.950 --> 58:24.750 And we talk all about it in this article here you can read for yourself about the 58:24.750 --> 58:29.310 canyon on Mars forming very quickly as a lake overflowed. 58:29.410 --> 58:29.850 I agree. 58:30.770 --> 58:32.310 I think many canyons form quickly. 58:32.930 --> 58:35.230 There's an effect in physics called the Meissner effect. 58:35.370 --> 58:37.710 A magnet will actually float on top of another magnet. 58:38.230 --> 58:40.570 If you put two north poles together, one will float on top of the other. 58:40.770 --> 58:43.230 Japanese use this for their high-speed maglev trains. 58:44.250 --> 58:45.250 The Meissner effect. 58:46.430 --> 58:49.170 All this is going to tie in what we call the Hovind theory, but you need to have a 58:49.170 --> 58:50.310 little refresher in science here. 58:50.690 --> 58:51.670 What caused all this? 58:52.270 --> 58:55.190 There are comets flying around through space, but these comets are extremely 58:55.190 --> 58:57.290 cold, like three to four hundred below zero. 58:58.610 --> 58:59.270 Don't lick them. 59:01.530 --> 59:04.570 How many of you have a piece of your tongue stuck to a pipe or a pump handle 59:04.570 --> 59:07.670 someplace in the world right now because when you were a kid you were as dumb as 59:07.670 --> 59:07.890 me? 59:09.890 --> 59:11.770 My brother said, I bet you can't lick that pole. 59:11.950 --> 59:12.390 I bet I can. 59:14.170 --> 59:15.750 Ten below zero in Illinois, you know. 59:18.030 --> 59:21.850 Super cold things exist in space, cold enough to freeze the mammoths. 59:22.830 --> 59:26.730 Next week we're going to cover some more of the Hovind theory of what caused the 59:26.730 --> 59:29.670 freezing of the mammoths, the ice age, and the flood, and Grand Canyon, 59:29.770 --> 59:30.090 and all that. 59:30.430 --> 59:32.350 So tune in again next time. 59:32.630 --> 59:32.990 See you then. 59:39.450 --> 59:42.210 Well welcome folks to the Creation Seminar Part 6. 59:42.310 --> 59:46.250 This will be a continuation of what we covered last time on the Hovind theory. 59:46.330 --> 59:47.450 What caused the flood? 59:47.970 --> 59:50.890 But before we go into my theory of what caused all this, we have to review a 59:50.890 --> 59:51.530 little bit of science. 59:51.610 --> 59:54.770 When we started last time talking about some of the things about science that you 59:54.770 --> 59:58.250 need to be refreshed about, the Meissner effect, and about super cold comets in 59:58.250 --> 59:58.570 space. 59:59.070 --> 01:00:02.150 Some of the comets, most of the comets out there in space, are extremely cold, 01:00:02.230 --> 01:00:03.930 like 300 to 400 below zero. 01:00:04.730 --> 01:00:07.450 Now the next thing you need to keep in mind, if you throw a snowball too fast, 01:00:07.870 --> 01:00:08.570 it'll break apart. 01:00:08.990 --> 01:00:10.890 I know here we are in Florida, probably some of you have never seen a 01:00:10.890 --> 01:00:14.150 snowball before, but it's the white stuff, you know, it falls out of the sky. 01:00:14.930 --> 01:00:19.690 You know, not the pigeons, but if you throw snow too fast, it will break apart 01:00:19.690 --> 01:00:20.310 in space. 01:00:21.350 --> 01:00:24.570 You can't throw a snow, you couldn't shoot a snowball out of a cannon, it would break 01:00:24.570 --> 01:00:26.770 apart, it wouldn't hold together in one piece. 01:00:27.230 --> 01:00:30.710 So if a comet was going too fast, it would break apart. 01:00:30.890 --> 01:00:34.170 We saw that when the comet got sucked into Jupiter, Comet Shoemaker several years 01:00:34.170 --> 01:00:34.390 ago. 01:00:34.750 --> 01:00:38.290 They saw the comet headed toward Jupiter, it kept going faster and faster because 01:00:38.290 --> 01:00:41.110 gravity gets stronger the closer you get, the inverse square law. 01:00:41.530 --> 01:00:44.570 And as the comet got up to a certain speed, all of a sudden, poof, it just blew 01:00:44.570 --> 01:00:45.450 apart in space. 01:00:46.110 --> 01:00:49.930 There were 27 pieces that we could see from here that hit Jupiter, who knows how 01:00:49.930 --> 01:00:52.790 many millions there actually were, but it broke up into thousands, 01:00:52.890 --> 01:00:54.390 at least thousands, probably millions of pieces. 01:00:55.010 --> 01:00:58.430 So comets are flying through space, but they have a maximum velocity where 01:00:58.430 --> 01:00:59.570 they will simply break apart. 01:00:59.890 --> 01:01:02.990 Next thing to keep in mind, the earth has a very strong magnetic field, but the 01:01:02.990 --> 01:01:07.090 magnetic field is getting weaker, which means back at the time of the flood, 01:01:07.170 --> 01:01:10.750 the magnetic field probably maybe even eight or ten times stronger than it is 01:01:10.750 --> 01:01:13.250 today, this magnetic field protecting the earth. 01:01:13.990 --> 01:01:17.630 And next thing to keep in mind, super cold particles sometimes are easily 01:01:17.630 --> 01:01:20.150 magnetically deflected or statically charged. 01:01:20.610 --> 01:01:22.130 For instance, we have the northern lights. 01:01:22.290 --> 01:01:23.910 How many of you have ever got to see the northern lights? 01:01:24.550 --> 01:01:28.810 I've only been able to see them twice, once in South Dakota and once in Canada. 01:01:29.430 --> 01:01:32.330 I had to get to an airport, three hour drive to get to the plane, I had to catch 01:01:32.330 --> 01:01:34.710 the plane at seven in the morning, so at three in the morning we left from 01:01:34.710 --> 01:01:35.590 the seminar to drive. 01:01:36.050 --> 01:01:38.570 So I laid in the back seat and looked out the window and the northern lights were 01:01:38.570 --> 01:01:39.710 just going crazy that night. 01:01:39.850 --> 01:01:41.730 Three hours, got to watch them, it's unbelievable. 01:01:41.850 --> 01:01:43.710 If you've never seen them, they're phenomenal. 01:01:43.890 --> 01:01:44.810 You guys seen them in South Dakota? 01:01:45.590 --> 01:01:47.690 You live there, you gotta go up at night to see them. 01:01:47.830 --> 01:01:51.190 Okay, well, they're out in the daytime but you can't see them. 01:01:51.630 --> 01:01:55.630 The northern lights are caused by the phenomena of the particles or energy being 01:01:55.630 --> 01:01:58.570 deflected to the north and south pole from the earth's magnetic field. 01:01:59.970 --> 01:02:03.210 I think the same thing could happen with super cold ice particles, little fragments 01:02:03.210 --> 01:02:04.690 could be deflected to the north and south pole. 01:02:05.050 --> 01:02:07.470 Next thing to keep in mind, the pre-flood world was a lot different. 01:02:08.230 --> 01:02:10.370 They had a canopy of water or ice to protect them. 01:02:10.450 --> 01:02:11.670 We covered that in seminar part two. 01:02:12.310 --> 01:02:14.950 And next thing to keep in mind before we give you the Hovind theory, who on earth 01:02:14.950 --> 01:02:15.510 is Peleg? 01:02:16.230 --> 01:02:17.810 There's a guy in the Bible named Peleg. 01:02:18.110 --> 01:02:20.750 If you read through Genesis chapter 10, it's kind of a boring chapter, 01:02:20.850 --> 01:02:22.090 I hate to say that, but it's kind of boring. 01:02:22.190 --> 01:02:24.490 You know, it's all them names that nobody can pronounce but Alexander Scorby. 01:02:25.030 --> 01:02:28.530 And you come to Genesis 10, 25 and it says, unto Eber were born two sons. 01:02:28.950 --> 01:02:33.730 The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days was the earth divided. 01:02:34.590 --> 01:02:37.390 All the rest of these guys in Genesis 10, it doesn't tell us anything about them. 01:02:37.410 --> 01:02:40.290 It says their name and his son's name and his son's name and his son's name. 01:02:40.330 --> 01:02:43.350 And all of a sudden it says, in the days of Peleg, the earth was divided. 01:02:44.390 --> 01:02:46.870 And then it says his brother's name was Joktan. 01:02:47.810 --> 01:02:49.550 Well, nobody else gets their brother mentioned. 01:02:50.010 --> 01:02:51.630 Why would Peleg get his brother mentioned? 01:02:52.730 --> 01:02:56.450 Well, Joktan in Hebrew means shortening and Peleg means divided. 01:02:57.550 --> 01:02:59.190 So, who on earth is this Peleg? 01:02:59.390 --> 01:03:01.910 If you get the seminar notebook, the last page folds out to be this 01:03:01.910 --> 01:03:02.270 timeline. 01:03:02.690 --> 01:03:05.490 You can see Peleg on there a couple of generations after the flood. 01:03:06.790 --> 01:03:07.510 Who was Peleg? 01:03:07.790 --> 01:03:10.250 Notice Peleg's daddy lived over 400 years. 01:03:11.430 --> 01:03:13.190 Peleg only lived 239. 01:03:14.370 --> 01:03:15.090 What happened? 01:03:15.790 --> 01:03:16.590 We'll cover that in a minute. 01:03:16.930 --> 01:03:21.330 Next thing to keep in mind, the pre-flood world had a canopy of water overhead and a 01:03:21.330 --> 01:03:23.210 layer of water under the crust of the earth. 01:03:23.970 --> 01:03:27.330 Mentioned in Psalm 33, Psalm 136, Psalm 24. 01:03:27.750 --> 01:03:29.350 This water used to be under the crust of the earth. 01:03:29.730 --> 01:03:32.430 Next thing to keep in mind, sometimes there are two ways to look at things. 01:03:33.570 --> 01:03:36.330 If you remember our seminar part 4, you know how fast was that calf going? 01:03:36.470 --> 01:03:38.830 Anyway, two ways to look at things in this world. 01:03:39.110 --> 01:03:42.270 So, I made a conscious decision 35 years ago as a brand new Christian. 01:03:42.890 --> 01:03:45.810 I had kids in school making fun of me for being a Christian and telling me the 01:03:45.810 --> 01:03:47.450 Bible's got contradictions and blah, blah, blah. 01:03:47.550 --> 01:03:50.990 I went through all the typical persecution of a young Christian and I had to decide 01:03:50.990 --> 01:03:53.810 I'm going to believe the Bible until it is proven wrong. 01:03:54.930 --> 01:03:57.550 Some people have decided they are not going to believe the Bible until it's 01:03:57.550 --> 01:03:58.070 proven right. 01:03:59.470 --> 01:04:00.690 I think that's a mistake. 01:04:01.550 --> 01:04:03.890 One atheist came to the preacher one day and said, I don't believe the Bible. 01:04:04.070 --> 01:04:04.930 I don't believe anything in the Bible. 01:04:04.970 --> 01:04:05.850 I believe science. 01:04:06.370 --> 01:04:09.910 He said, if you can prove one verse out of the Bible scientifically, I'll believe it. 01:04:10.790 --> 01:04:11.590 Preacher said, okay. 01:04:12.010 --> 01:04:14.870 He grabbed the atheist around the neck, grabbed his nose and began twisting his 01:04:14.870 --> 01:04:17.030 nose back and forth until the blood started coming out. 01:04:17.950 --> 01:04:19.990 Atheist said, man, what are you doing? 01:04:20.950 --> 01:04:23.430 He said, well, the Bible says the ringing of the nose brings forth blood. 01:04:23.490 --> 01:04:24.450 I was just proving it to you, you know. 01:04:26.310 --> 01:04:28.330 I don't recommend you do that, but it is in there folks. 01:04:28.550 --> 01:04:28.550 Okay. 01:04:28.910 --> 01:04:30.550 Anyway, here's the Hovind theory. 01:04:30.610 --> 01:04:32.450 What I'm going to do is supposed to be a good teaching technique. 01:04:32.550 --> 01:04:34.190 I don't know if it works or not, but I'm going to tell you what I'm going 01:04:34.190 --> 01:04:34.610 to tell you. 01:04:34.850 --> 01:04:36.610 And then I'm going to tell you, and then I'm going to tell you what I told 01:04:36.610 --> 01:04:36.790 you. 01:04:37.850 --> 01:04:40.710 So we'll go through this real fast, real slow, and then real fast at the end, 01:04:40.730 --> 01:04:42.810 just trying to give a conclusion of what caused the flood? 01:04:43.010 --> 01:04:44.050 What froze the mammoths? 01:04:44.150 --> 01:04:44.990 Why is the earth tilted? 01:04:45.090 --> 01:04:45.970 Why do we have seasons? 01:04:46.930 --> 01:04:47.890 What froze the mammoths? 01:04:48.190 --> 01:04:48.630 Standing up. 01:04:49.450 --> 01:04:50.470 Eight points to the Hovind theory. 01:04:50.530 --> 01:04:50.910 Very simple. 01:04:51.030 --> 01:04:53.390 I think Noah and the animals got safely into the ark. 01:04:54.350 --> 01:04:54.850 Number one. 01:04:55.110 --> 01:04:59.990 Number two, a 300 degree below zero Fahrenheit ice meteor came flying through 01:04:59.990 --> 01:05:00.390 space. 01:05:01.710 --> 01:05:04.190 As it got closer to some of the planets, it broke apart. 01:05:05.190 --> 01:05:06.670 And some of the fragments made the rings. 01:05:06.750 --> 01:05:08.090 Some of the planets have rings around them. 01:05:08.870 --> 01:05:11.170 Why do Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune have rings? 01:05:11.230 --> 01:05:12.250 Rings made of ice. 01:05:12.990 --> 01:05:13.530 What happened? 01:05:14.230 --> 01:05:17.350 As it got close to the earth, some of the fragments would tend to be sucked into the 01:05:17.350 --> 01:05:18.370 north and south pole. 01:05:19.210 --> 01:05:24.010 And so the earth got snowed on with extremely cold, like 300 or 400 below zero 01:05:24.010 --> 01:05:25.690 snow, mostly around the poles. 01:05:26.150 --> 01:05:28.910 Now a lot of it would vaporize, I know, coming through the atmosphere. 01:05:29.690 --> 01:05:34.330 But just like you can spray a hose right through the middle of a fire, some of it 01:05:34.330 --> 01:05:35.310 will make it out the other side. 01:05:35.790 --> 01:05:39.110 If you get enough going in the same direction, it'll develop a cold channel 01:05:39.110 --> 01:05:40.290 right through the middle of a hot fire. 01:05:40.990 --> 01:05:44.030 Super cold ice could dump in on the earth and make a cold channel right through a 01:05:44.030 --> 01:05:44.590 warm atmosphere. 01:05:45.030 --> 01:05:47.950 If you get enough of it going at the same time, coming fast enough. 01:05:48.510 --> 01:05:51.210 Then the fourth thing that happened, this dump of ice on the north and south 01:05:51.210 --> 01:05:54.750 pole caused the earth to crack, releasing the fountains of the deep. 01:05:55.070 --> 01:05:57.770 Caused the earth to wobble from the extra weight on the north and south pole. 01:05:58.430 --> 01:06:02.030 And the rapidly spreading ice, you keep dumping ice in one spot, 01:06:02.050 --> 01:06:02.930 it's going to spread out. 01:06:03.850 --> 01:06:07.370 And went sliding across the countryside, carving the glacier effects that we still 01:06:07.370 --> 01:06:08.090 see today. 01:06:08.710 --> 01:06:10.210 It caused the burial of the mammoths. 01:06:10.310 --> 01:06:12.730 They're frozen, standing up, food in their stomach, and they suffocate it. 01:06:13.210 --> 01:06:15.250 It caused the earth to wobble for a few thousand years. 01:06:15.330 --> 01:06:18.810 It made the canopy that used to protect the earth collapse, because when warm air 01:06:18.810 --> 01:06:20.210 hits cold air, it rains. 01:06:21.350 --> 01:06:25.350 And it opened up the fountains of the deep, and the water came shooting out from 01:06:25.350 --> 01:06:28.310 inside the crust of the earth, like the Walt Brown's hydroplate theory 01:06:28.310 --> 01:06:28.570 shows. 01:06:28.950 --> 01:06:32.530 Then during the first few months of the flood, the dead animals settled out and 01:06:32.530 --> 01:06:32.930 were buried. 01:06:33.910 --> 01:06:35.790 And plants were buried by the bazillions. 01:06:36.410 --> 01:06:41.530 And the big piles of plants became coal, and animals turned into oil, natural gas, 01:06:41.590 --> 01:06:43.790 or fossils, depending on how they're buried, and how deep they're buried, 01:06:43.830 --> 01:06:44.890 and what conditions they're buried in. 01:06:45.870 --> 01:06:49.010 That became the coal and the fossil graveyards over the next few hundred 01:06:49.010 --> 01:06:49.370 years. 01:06:50.010 --> 01:06:53.030 Then during the last part of the flood, the unstable plates of the earth would 01:06:53.030 --> 01:06:54.590 crack and shift and move around. 01:06:54.970 --> 01:06:57.070 Some places lift up, other places sink down. 01:06:57.350 --> 01:06:58.710 Water's going to fill in the low place. 01:06:59.390 --> 01:07:02.270 If we filled this room full of water, lifted up one end of the room, 01:07:02.510 --> 01:07:04.110 the water would rush down to the low end. 01:07:05.070 --> 01:07:09.830 I think the plates of the earth tilted and water ran off, forming the mountain 01:07:09.830 --> 01:07:12.730 ranges, the canyons, and the trenches. 01:07:12.890 --> 01:07:13.610 We'll cover that in a minute. 01:07:14.070 --> 01:07:16.630 As the ocean thin spots sank down, they became the oceans. 01:07:16.690 --> 01:07:18.450 Other spots lifted up, they became the continents. 01:07:18.690 --> 01:07:20.790 And the runoff caused enormous erosion. 01:07:21.690 --> 01:07:23.410 Grand Canyon probably formed in a couple weeks. 01:07:24.190 --> 01:07:27.450 Over the next few hundred years, the ice caps would slowly melt back. 01:07:28.310 --> 01:07:30.310 This is going to raise the ocean levels slowly. 01:07:30.910 --> 01:07:33.010 That's the only thing to explain the continental shelf. 01:07:34.250 --> 01:07:36.050 Why do we have a continental shelf out there? 01:07:36.550 --> 01:07:40.910 That explains the shortening of the lives in the days of Peleg, from CO2 being 01:07:40.910 --> 01:07:42.290 absorbed by the water. 01:07:43.570 --> 01:07:46.930 And we can still see today the devastating effects of this flood. 01:07:47.510 --> 01:07:48.610 So that's the Hovantherian nutshell. 01:07:48.750 --> 01:07:49.950 Let's go over a little more detail now. 01:07:50.470 --> 01:07:51.510 God made a perfect world. 01:07:52.230 --> 01:07:53.430 Man wrecked it with his sin. 01:07:54.050 --> 01:07:55.070 God said, I'm going to destroy it. 01:07:55.110 --> 01:07:55.710 Noah built a boat. 01:07:56.350 --> 01:07:58.370 God said to Noah, get in with all the critters. 01:07:58.990 --> 01:08:01.450 God said to Noah, come thou, Genesis 7. 01:08:02.290 --> 01:08:03.730 That is a good sermon right there. 01:08:04.310 --> 01:08:05.850 God didn't tell Noah to go into the ark. 01:08:06.990 --> 01:08:08.210 He told him to come into the ark. 01:08:09.930 --> 01:08:11.670 Where does God have to be in order to say that? 01:08:12.930 --> 01:08:13.530 In the ark. 01:08:14.130 --> 01:08:14.970 That will preach. 01:08:15.650 --> 01:08:17.390 Later he said, go out of the ark. 01:08:19.130 --> 01:08:20.210 He didn't say come out of the ark. 01:08:20.590 --> 01:08:21.990 God was in there with him the whole time. 01:08:22.810 --> 01:08:25.630 I don't mind taking a one-year cruise with all the critters on board if God is in 01:08:25.630 --> 01:08:26.090 there with me. 01:08:26.970 --> 01:08:28.630 That will preach. 01:08:29.090 --> 01:08:31.490 And then the Bible says, the Lord shut him in. 01:08:31.630 --> 01:08:32.990 Genesis 7, verse 16. 01:08:33.390 --> 01:08:35.310 If God shuts the door, it won't leak. 01:08:36.070 --> 01:08:37.170 Good eternal security verse. 01:08:37.270 --> 01:08:38.670 If you are in Christ, you are safe. 01:08:39.530 --> 01:08:41.050 People say, do you think you can lose your salvation? 01:08:41.210 --> 01:08:41.850 Absolutely not. 01:08:41.870 --> 01:08:42.210 Are you kidding? 01:08:42.330 --> 01:08:43.670 I didn't deserve it before I got it. 01:08:43.690 --> 01:08:44.890 I didn't deserve it while I was getting it. 01:08:44.930 --> 01:08:45.770 I don't deserve it now. 01:08:46.430 --> 01:08:48.110 If I could lose it, I never would have it. 01:08:48.470 --> 01:08:49.330 Nobody would have it. 01:08:49.910 --> 01:08:51.050 I'm sealed in Christ. 01:08:51.110 --> 01:08:52.930 Not sealed because of what he did. 01:08:53.530 --> 01:08:54.850 Then I think what happened. 01:08:55.150 --> 01:08:56.330 Noah is in there safe and sound. 01:08:56.910 --> 01:09:00.490 A 300 degree below zero ice meteor comes flying through space and starts to crack 01:09:00.490 --> 01:09:01.250 up in space. 01:09:01.650 --> 01:09:04.030 Some of the fragments become rings around the planets. 01:09:04.970 --> 01:09:05.890 Some of them make craters. 01:09:06.450 --> 01:09:09.530 A chunk of ice would hit a planet, make a crater, and then later vaporize and 01:09:09.530 --> 01:09:13.550 disappear, leaving behind the hole, but no evidence of what hit it. 01:09:14.050 --> 01:09:14.710 Ice would do that. 01:09:15.690 --> 01:09:17.070 Some planets have rings around them. 01:09:17.070 --> 01:09:18.770 At least four planets have these ice rings. 01:09:19.450 --> 01:09:22.530 And they're made of not only ice, but also rock and ice. 01:09:23.250 --> 01:09:26.470 Now, Walt Brown thinks that the rings around the planets came from earth. 01:09:26.550 --> 01:09:30.130 He thinks the fountains of the deep broke open and shot stuff up into space. 01:09:30.790 --> 01:09:33.690 He thinks the comets flying around through space came from earth. 01:09:35.050 --> 01:09:35.510 Good theory. 01:09:35.570 --> 01:09:38.010 I don't know if you could prove that or not, but you have to go pretty fast to get 01:09:38.010 --> 01:09:39.090 away from earth's gravity, you know. 01:09:39.590 --> 01:09:44.350 But you get supersonic stuff shooting out of the ground from, you know, rocks 01:09:44.350 --> 01:09:46.330 blasting up from the fountains of the deep. 01:09:46.510 --> 01:09:47.130 It's a good theory. 01:09:47.310 --> 01:09:47.610 Could be true. 01:09:47.690 --> 01:09:48.030 I don't know. 01:09:48.490 --> 01:09:52.070 But these comets flying around through space are certainly super cold ice. 01:09:53.090 --> 01:09:56.930 As this sections of the comet or maybe the tail of the comet got close to the earth, 01:09:57.350 --> 01:09:59.610 it would be sucked in because of the earth's magnetic field. 01:09:59.670 --> 01:10:02.350 It would be deflected mostly to the north and south poles. 01:10:03.370 --> 01:10:05.430 So the earth got hit mostly around the poles. 01:10:05.810 --> 01:10:06.890 Some fragments might make it through. 01:10:06.970 --> 01:10:09.530 The big ones might make it through and actually leave behind craters that after 01:10:09.530 --> 01:10:10.590 the flood would still be visible. 01:10:11.010 --> 01:10:13.370 Maybe eroded some from the flood, but there could be craters. 01:10:13.530 --> 01:10:16.510 I don't know if the Yucatan Peninsula crater is an example of that, but there 01:10:16.510 --> 01:10:17.030 could be craters. 01:10:17.130 --> 01:10:20.010 Or the big one in Quebec, Canada, 47 miles across. 01:10:20.210 --> 01:10:23.070 Something huge hit Quebec, left a 47 mile crater. 01:10:24.770 --> 01:10:26.110 That could be from this ice. 01:10:26.170 --> 01:10:26.530 I don't know. 01:10:26.930 --> 01:10:30.170 But also super cold ice is easily statically charged. 01:10:30.690 --> 01:10:32.430 We have a Van de Graaff generator at our place. 01:10:32.550 --> 01:10:34.730 You can go over there and stick your hand on there and poof, make your hair stand 01:10:34.730 --> 01:10:34.910 up. 01:10:35.150 --> 01:10:36.150 You've all seen those before, right? 01:10:36.170 --> 01:10:36.750 In physics class. 01:10:37.050 --> 01:10:37.550 A lot of fun. 01:10:37.630 --> 01:10:38.510 Come on over and you can try ours. 01:10:38.890 --> 01:10:39.990 Well, here's my theory. 01:10:40.050 --> 01:10:42.830 I think a super cold ice meteor came toward the earth, broke apart, 01:10:43.610 --> 01:10:45.310 most of the fragments landed on the poles. 01:10:45.510 --> 01:10:50.010 This caused the earth to wobble, cracked the crust, released the fountains 01:10:50.010 --> 01:10:50.410 of the deep. 01:10:51.230 --> 01:10:55.430 The canopy overhead then would collapse because super cold air coming off of this 01:10:55.430 --> 01:10:56.310 ice cap. 01:10:56.890 --> 01:10:59.370 Just like when you open the freezer, you can see the cold air flow out. 01:10:59.850 --> 01:11:03.610 Well, cold air is like we get the Canadian winds come down, you know, from Canada and 01:11:03.610 --> 01:11:05.290 freeze the people down in Texas primarily. 01:11:06.030 --> 01:11:09.330 There are cold fronts that move off of big masses of cold ground. 01:11:09.810 --> 01:11:12.790 That would happen at the time of the flood and for the next few hundred years 01:11:12.790 --> 01:11:15.310 actually from this ice cap sending off these cold waves. 01:11:15.370 --> 01:11:16.350 It's still coming today actually. 01:11:17.210 --> 01:11:20.250 Scientists just discovered here a few years ago there are still massive amounts 01:11:20.250 --> 01:11:21.890 of ice hitting the earth all the time. 01:11:22.750 --> 01:11:25.290 Earth gets clobbered by big chunks of ice as big as a house. 01:11:26.270 --> 01:11:29.410 It melts in space and ends up coming down just as moisture, but we're getting a lot 01:11:29.410 --> 01:11:33.190 of ice and water added to the earth from this phenomenon. 01:11:33.310 --> 01:11:37.330 I think this is remnant ice floating around from 4,400 years ago at the time of 01:11:37.330 --> 01:11:37.630 the flood. 01:11:38.410 --> 01:11:41.510 This article talks about water, water everywhere in space. 01:11:42.790 --> 01:11:46.770 Finding lots of chunks of water, you know, amounts of water and chunks of 01:11:46.770 --> 01:11:48.010 ice in outer space. 01:11:48.570 --> 01:11:51.830 Now, this map shows the North Pole kind of from a strange view. 01:11:52.410 --> 01:11:57.030 It shows Greenland down at the bottom lower right and Russia to the upper left, 01:11:57.630 --> 01:12:01.730 but it shows what the North Sea would look like without the water in it. 01:12:02.470 --> 01:12:06.710 There's an island up there up at 10 o 'clock on your map called the New Siberian 01:12:06.710 --> 01:12:07.150 Islands. 01:12:07.910 --> 01:12:12.730 There on those New Siberian Islands, they find frozen bobcat, frozen camels, 01:12:13.490 --> 01:12:16.170 frozen bison, frozen mammoths. 01:12:17.050 --> 01:12:18.570 What's a camel doing up near the North Pole? 01:12:19.670 --> 01:12:21.650 And some of these camels are 15 feet tall. 01:12:23.290 --> 01:12:24.750 I mean a really big camel. 01:12:26.490 --> 01:12:27.070 What happened? 01:12:27.490 --> 01:12:30.990 How do you freeze animals up near the North Pole and why were they there? 01:12:31.530 --> 01:12:34.270 Well, I think before the flood came, the world probably had very, very small 01:12:34.270 --> 01:12:38.010 ice caps, if any, because it wasn't tilted as much as it is today. 01:12:39.090 --> 01:12:41.970 If the earth were not tilted quite so much, we'd have almost, you know, 01:12:42.030 --> 01:12:43.270 springtime all the time. 01:12:44.490 --> 01:12:47.730 There still would be probably small polar ice caps just because of the angle of the 01:12:47.730 --> 01:12:47.970 sun. 01:12:48.310 --> 01:12:51.410 Probably be colder weather at the north and warmer at the equator, but nothing 01:12:51.410 --> 01:12:52.110 like it is today. 01:12:52.830 --> 01:12:55.530 When they drill down through the ice, sometimes they find strange things. 01:12:55.550 --> 01:12:58.130 Like in Antarctica, they drilled down, which is at the bottom of the world here, 01:12:58.250 --> 01:12:58.950 or we call it the bottom. 01:12:59.070 --> 01:13:01.450 Of course, you can't tell when you're standing there, but at the south end of 01:13:01.450 --> 01:13:04.410 the world, they drilled down through the ice and hit coal. 01:13:06.050 --> 01:13:11.870 There's enormous evidence of huge forests in Antarctica where there's not one tree 01:13:11.870 --> 01:13:12.470 growing today. 01:13:12.630 --> 01:13:14.090 There's not a blade of grass growing down there. 01:13:15.610 --> 01:13:19.530 Admiral Byrd said he found frozen palm leaves under the ice near the South Pole. 01:13:19.970 --> 01:13:23.510 Here's an article telling about 400 miles from the South Pole, they find dinosaur 01:13:23.510 --> 01:13:24.090 footprints. 01:13:25.350 --> 01:13:26.070 And dinosaurs. 01:13:27.610 --> 01:13:30.550 And thousands of well-preserved leaves found in Antarctica. 01:13:31.870 --> 01:13:32.650 What happened? 01:13:33.330 --> 01:13:36.670 250 miles from the South Pole, they find frozen leaves in the side of a 01:13:36.670 --> 01:13:36.950 cliff. 01:13:37.750 --> 01:13:38.550 There are no trees there. 01:13:38.710 --> 01:13:39.050 None. 01:13:39.510 --> 01:13:39.770 Zero. 01:13:40.450 --> 01:13:42.250 This article talks about the discovery of these leaves. 01:13:42.370 --> 01:13:43.970 They have their original cellular content. 01:13:44.190 --> 01:13:45.850 These leaves are not fossilized. 01:13:46.950 --> 01:13:47.790 They're still leaves. 01:13:48.750 --> 01:13:53.210 Up in Alaska, they found dinosaur bones and dinosaur tracks in Alaska. 01:13:53.630 --> 01:13:54.650 It's cold in Alaska. 01:13:56.570 --> 01:13:59.970 Actually, there's a good book by some guys who went up to northern Alaska and found 01:13:59.970 --> 01:14:02.050 frozen dinosaur bones, not even fossilized. 01:14:02.830 --> 01:14:05.190 It's called the Great Alaskan Dinosaur Adventure. 01:14:05.350 --> 01:14:07.310 Great Alaskan Adventure or something like that. 01:14:07.490 --> 01:14:08.270 We can get it through our bookstore. 01:14:09.070 --> 01:14:12.610 But frozen dinosaur bones, not even fossilized? 01:14:14.130 --> 01:14:14.530 Hmm. 01:14:15.130 --> 01:14:17.150 Well, we cover more on that in video number seven. 01:14:17.470 --> 01:14:19.450 The Earth actually has two North Poles. 01:14:19.690 --> 01:14:21.350 We have what's called the geographic North Pole. 01:14:21.430 --> 01:14:22.450 We spin around that one. 01:14:22.750 --> 01:14:25.090 And we have a magnetic North Pole up here in Canada. 01:14:25.830 --> 01:14:27.890 Your compass points to the magnetic North Pole. 01:14:28.470 --> 01:14:31.330 Now here in Florida, it doesn't affect us because we're pretty much straight line. 01:14:31.710 --> 01:14:33.370 But if you live in Alaska, there's quite a difference. 01:14:33.750 --> 01:14:38.310 Pilots have to really watch for this angle of declination because the North Pole is 01:14:38.310 --> 01:14:39.310 not really the North Pole. 01:14:39.830 --> 01:14:43.490 And they have to allow how many degrees to change their navigation based upon, 01:14:44.250 --> 01:14:46.870 you know, because it's pointing magnetic north, not geographic north. 01:14:47.270 --> 01:14:50.610 It appears that the ice age, you can look at the map here, it appears that the ice 01:14:50.610 --> 01:14:53.370 age is centered around the magnetic North Pole. 01:14:54.310 --> 01:14:56.950 There was more ice in America than there was in Russia, for instance. 01:14:57.230 --> 01:14:58.850 The ice age effects came down further. 01:14:59.890 --> 01:15:00.810 Here's what I think happened. 01:15:00.850 --> 01:15:03.390 The mammoths are up there chomping on their tropical flowers, enjoying a 01:15:03.390 --> 01:15:03.930 wonderful meal. 01:15:04.350 --> 01:15:05.690 And all of a sudden it began to snow. 01:15:06.610 --> 01:15:08.010 They had never seen snow before. 01:15:09.030 --> 01:15:11.590 So one of them said, Herman, this is peculiar weather we got going on here. 01:15:12.490 --> 01:15:13.330 Let's get out of here. 01:15:13.830 --> 01:15:16.570 They started running around and the snow got deeper and deeper. 01:15:16.650 --> 01:15:19.230 And pretty soon they ended up in snow so deep they couldn't even fall over. 01:15:20.430 --> 01:15:22.890 How many of you have ever been in snow so deep you couldn't fall down? 01:15:24.050 --> 01:15:26.370 You don't get that in Florida much, but you guys do in South Dakota, 01:15:26.430 --> 01:15:26.650 don't you? 01:15:27.750 --> 01:15:33.230 And the mammoths ended up standing up, suffocating in 300 below zero, 01:15:33.830 --> 01:15:35.010 super cold snow. 01:15:36.150 --> 01:15:39.610 They froze in five hours under those conditions. 01:15:40.110 --> 01:15:42.470 Because a large chunk of meat takes a long time to freeze. 01:15:42.570 --> 01:15:45.510 You ladies know if you freeze or thawed a large turkey or something, it takes 24 01:15:45.510 --> 01:15:47.230 hours to freeze or thaw 12 inches. 01:15:48.390 --> 01:15:51.530 Well, the mammoths are found frozen so quickly the food in their stomach is still 01:15:51.530 --> 01:15:53.210 green, still recognizable. 01:15:53.750 --> 01:15:55.730 It didn't keep digesting after they died. 01:15:56.610 --> 01:15:59.210 As the ice would go spreading out across the countryside, it would leave behind 01:15:59.210 --> 01:16:02.770 scratches in the rock like you see in Kelly's Island, Ohio, or all across 01:16:02.770 --> 01:16:03.750 Indiana or Illinois. 01:16:04.010 --> 01:16:05.450 There are glacial grooves. 01:16:05.670 --> 01:16:08.990 Yes, there actually was an ice age, but it wasn't millions of years ago. 01:16:09.070 --> 01:16:10.870 I think it was triggered at the time of the flood. 01:16:11.310 --> 01:16:13.650 There are basically two theories about the ice age among creationists. 01:16:13.950 --> 01:16:15.990 One theory says the flood caused the ice age. 01:16:16.450 --> 01:16:19.670 My theory says the ice age caused the Very similar. 01:16:20.330 --> 01:16:23.230 I think the ice age actually caused the flood to start. 01:16:24.310 --> 01:16:28.050 I don't think you're going to explain 5 million mammoths perishing at one time if 01:16:28.050 --> 01:16:30.510 the ice age came after the flood, because mammoths are a little slow 01:16:30.510 --> 01:16:31.070 reproducing. 01:16:31.310 --> 01:16:33.170 You know, it takes a couple years to have a baby mammoth, okay? 01:16:33.450 --> 01:16:35.630 And to get 5 million of them is going to take a long time. 01:16:36.230 --> 01:16:39.390 So I think the ice age had to come and triggered the flood. 01:16:39.550 --> 01:16:42.530 Then the ice would still last for a few hundred years afterwards, but probably 01:16:42.530 --> 01:16:43.150 that was the trigger. 01:16:43.550 --> 01:16:44.990 So the earth had these big cold spots. 01:16:45.110 --> 01:16:46.770 Cold air hits warm air, causes it to rain. 01:16:46.850 --> 01:16:48.150 It rained 40 days and 40 nights. 01:16:48.490 --> 01:16:51.850 The canopy that used to protect the earth collapsed and everybody drowned. 01:16:52.490 --> 01:16:54.430 The Bible says the fountains of the deep broke open. 01:16:54.910 --> 01:16:57.370 I think because of the impact, or maybe because of the weight of the 01:16:57.370 --> 01:17:00.730 earth, or the changing in the tilt, or just the near miss of a comet, 01:17:01.290 --> 01:17:04.730 just something going by the gravitational tug would flex the crust of the earth, 01:17:04.810 --> 01:17:05.590 causing it to crack. 01:17:05.930 --> 01:17:08.370 Several things could have happened, releasing the fountains of the deep. 01:17:08.810 --> 01:17:11.730 If you get the book of Jasher, we sell it in our bookstore. 01:17:12.150 --> 01:17:14.090 I don't know that this is the one mentioned in the Bible. 01:17:14.530 --> 01:17:17.490 There is a book of Jasher and a book of Enoch mentioned in the Bible. 01:17:17.950 --> 01:17:19.470 There are some floating around in circulation. 01:17:19.710 --> 01:17:20.710 Neither may be legitimate. 01:17:21.470 --> 01:17:27.790 It appears the book of Enoch is actually a forgery by one of the cults who wanted to 01:17:27.790 --> 01:17:31.110 say, well the Bible says right here, certain doctrines, things that they teach. 01:17:31.470 --> 01:17:34.310 So they wrote their own book of Enoch knowing nobody had ever found the book of 01:17:34.310 --> 01:17:34.510 Enoch. 01:17:35.450 --> 01:17:37.290 The book of Jasher may be that way too, I don't know. 01:17:37.330 --> 01:17:40.970 But it says in Jasher chapter 6, on that day the Lord caused the whole 01:17:40.970 --> 01:17:41.650 earth to shake. 01:17:43.390 --> 01:17:46.410 And the sun darkened, and the foundations of the earth raged, and the whole earth 01:17:46.410 --> 01:17:47.370 was moved violently. 01:17:48.470 --> 01:17:51.310 And the lightning flashed, and the thunder roared, and all the foundations of the 01:17:51.310 --> 01:17:52.330 earth were broken up. 01:17:53.750 --> 01:17:54.610 Fascinating book to read. 01:17:54.650 --> 01:17:56.570 If you want to get the book of Jasher, it's like ten bucks in our bookstore. 01:17:57.050 --> 01:18:01.890 But I think this is another description of what happened at the time of the flood. 01:18:01.970 --> 01:18:03.210 The earth actually broke apart. 01:18:03.990 --> 01:18:04.690 Something caused it. 01:18:04.910 --> 01:18:07.730 Walt Brown says the earth was stretched over the water. 01:18:07.770 --> 01:18:08.990 I agree, but he doesn't have a mechanism. 01:18:09.370 --> 01:18:10.030 And I talked to him about it. 01:18:10.090 --> 01:18:11.610 I said, what caused the earth to crack? 01:18:11.710 --> 01:18:12.370 He said, I don't know. 01:18:12.950 --> 01:18:13.510 It just did. 01:18:14.050 --> 01:18:15.170 Well, maybe so. 01:18:15.750 --> 01:18:19.370 But I think outer space meteor strike is one possible solution to that. 01:18:19.770 --> 01:18:22.870 So, this dump of ice on the poles caused the earth to crack. 01:18:23.030 --> 01:18:24.310 That released the fountains of the deep. 01:18:24.790 --> 01:18:27.030 The rapidly spreading ice caused the ice age effects. 01:18:27.150 --> 01:18:28.330 It caused the burial of the mammoths. 01:18:28.390 --> 01:18:30.070 It made the earth wobble for a few thousand years. 01:18:30.330 --> 01:18:32.070 And it made the pre-flood canopy collapse. 01:18:32.690 --> 01:18:35.490 It rained forty days and forty nights, and the earth was completely covered by 01:18:35.490 --> 01:18:35.890 water. 01:18:36.150 --> 01:18:40.810 The Bible says in Genesis chapter 7, all the high hills under the whole heaven 01:18:40.810 --> 01:18:41.370 were covered. 01:18:42.130 --> 01:18:43.350 This is not a local flood. 01:18:44.410 --> 01:18:47.290 When I debated Hugh Ross on the John Ankerberg show for three hours, 01:18:47.450 --> 01:18:50.450 you know, I said, Dr. Ross, do you believe in a universal flood? 01:18:50.690 --> 01:18:52.330 No, I said, do you believe in a worldwide flood? 01:18:52.970 --> 01:18:55.150 He said, I believe in a universal flood. 01:18:57.190 --> 01:19:00.030 Now, I know what he really believes, and I thought that was a deceitful answer. 01:19:01.390 --> 01:19:03.410 I said, what do you mean a universal flood? 01:19:03.850 --> 01:19:06.990 He said, well, it flooded Noah's little universe, which was the valley that he 01:19:06.990 --> 01:19:07.430 lived in. 01:19:08.650 --> 01:19:11.090 There was no reason to flood the whole world, he says, because, you know, 01:19:11.150 --> 01:19:11.870 why kill the penguins? 01:19:11.910 --> 01:19:12.690 They didn't do anything wrong. 01:19:14.250 --> 01:19:16.910 Well, that sounds good, but it's not scriptural, okay? 01:19:17.170 --> 01:19:20.050 The Bible says the hills were covered, the whole mountains were covered. 01:19:20.570 --> 01:19:24.610 If you shrank the earth down to the size of this 12-inch globe, all the water in 01:19:24.610 --> 01:19:28.930 the oceans would not even fill a tablespoon at this scale. 01:19:30.290 --> 01:19:31.810 I mean, I flew back over to Pacific. 01:19:31.890 --> 01:19:35.310 I told one of the guys in my office, I said, man, the Pacific Ocean is huge. 01:19:35.990 --> 01:19:38.050 And he said, oh, that's just the top of it. 01:19:39.730 --> 01:19:40.690 That's quite a thought. 01:19:41.310 --> 01:19:45.290 But even though there's huge amounts of water on this planet, when you shrink it 01:19:45.290 --> 01:19:47.150 down to this scale, it won't even fill a tablespoon. 01:19:49.190 --> 01:19:55.270 Three miles of water spread over the world is thinner than the paper on this globe at 01:19:55.270 --> 01:19:55.670 this scale. 01:19:55.750 --> 01:19:58.350 This is 8,000 miles across the earth. 01:19:58.730 --> 01:20:00.410 Three miles compared to 8,000 is nothing. 01:20:01.330 --> 01:20:04.150 And if you smoothed out the earth right now, if you just smoothed it out, 01:20:04.230 --> 01:20:07.670 pushed the mountains down, lift the oceans up, level everything out, there's enough 01:20:07.670 --> 01:20:11.670 water out there right now to cover the earth a mile and a half deep everywhere. 01:20:13.070 --> 01:20:14.670 People say, where'd all the water from the flood go? 01:20:14.750 --> 01:20:15.370 Oh, it's still here. 01:20:16.310 --> 01:20:18.350 It's gathered into big puddles called oceans. 01:20:19.810 --> 01:20:21.210 The water is still here from that flood. 01:20:21.870 --> 01:20:24.570 And the Pacific Ocean is gigantic, and that's just one of the oceans, 01:20:24.750 --> 01:20:24.910 okay? 01:20:25.610 --> 01:20:29.290 When they climbed Mount Everest in 1953, they began to find something strange up 01:20:29.290 --> 01:20:31.910 near the top of Mount Everest, the tallest mountain that we know of in 01:20:31.910 --> 01:20:32.230 the world. 01:20:32.950 --> 01:20:37.570 They began to find petrified clams in the closed position. 01:20:39.030 --> 01:20:40.610 Petrified clams on top of Mount Everest. 01:20:41.070 --> 01:20:44.830 Up in Peru, two miles above sea level recently, they found giant oysters 11 and 01:20:44.830 --> 01:20:46.930 a half feet wide weighing 600 pounds. 01:20:48.050 --> 01:20:50.890 Petrified oysters in the closed position. 01:20:53.190 --> 01:20:56.270 Now you can walk along the beach here in Pensacola and find a billion seashells. 01:20:57.150 --> 01:21:00.310 You hardly ever find a matched pair, and you never find them closed if they're 01:21:00.310 --> 01:21:00.570 dead. 01:21:01.350 --> 01:21:02.410 As soon as they die, they open. 01:21:03.570 --> 01:21:07.310 How do you get petrified clams in the closed position on top Mount Everest? 01:21:08.690 --> 01:21:12.010 Well, Your Honor, I'd like to argue first of all that Mount Everest is a little ways 01:21:12.010 --> 01:21:14.070 from the beach, okay? 01:21:14.170 --> 01:21:14.770 Right there. 01:21:16.150 --> 01:21:18.350 Number two, clams don't climb mountains very well. 01:21:20.410 --> 01:21:22.390 Number three, when a clam dies, it opens. 01:21:23.530 --> 01:21:27.410 So how can we explain petrified closed clams on top of Mount Everest? 01:21:28.670 --> 01:21:31.070 One atheist I debated said, do you think the water covered Mount Everest? 01:21:31.910 --> 01:21:35.550 I said, well Mount Everest was underwater, but Mount Everest wasn't there. 01:21:36.550 --> 01:21:38.710 The mountains actually arose during the last part of the flood. 01:21:40.170 --> 01:21:43.170 Sometimes they find petrified clams in beds up to 10 feet thick. 01:21:44.090 --> 01:21:45.590 Solid petrified clams. 01:21:46.130 --> 01:21:46.690 10 feet. 01:21:47.430 --> 01:21:50.170 A guy in Alabama, I spoke up there in his church in central Alabama, he said, 01:21:50.190 --> 01:21:51.330 hey, you want some more petrified clams? 01:21:51.730 --> 01:21:52.310 I said, yeah. 01:21:52.830 --> 01:21:53.130 Why? 01:21:53.250 --> 01:21:54.770 He said, they're four feet thick in my backyard. 01:21:55.090 --> 01:21:58.090 Every time I row to my garden, I bring up thousands of petrified clams. 01:21:58.310 --> 01:21:58.550 Closed. 01:21:58.610 --> 01:21:59.310 I got a bunch of them here. 01:21:59.610 --> 01:22:00.270 Little tiny ones. 01:22:01.210 --> 01:22:02.870 Petrified clams in the closed position. 01:22:04.570 --> 01:22:10.670 I think that's evidence they were buried alive in mudslides, which would happen 01:22:10.670 --> 01:22:12.550 during the flood, and they woke up dead. 01:22:12.890 --> 01:22:13.290 Couldn't open. 01:22:14.210 --> 01:22:14.950 They ended up petrified. 01:22:15.050 --> 01:22:16.110 Doesn't take long for things to petrify. 01:22:16.510 --> 01:22:18.730 Petrified eggs are found, like this picture here shows. 01:22:19.210 --> 01:22:20.710 We've got three dinosaur eggs on the table. 01:22:20.830 --> 01:22:21.130 You can come see. 01:22:21.170 --> 01:22:22.750 Those are real petrified dinosaur eggs. 01:22:23.210 --> 01:22:24.330 Petrified jellyfish. 01:22:25.410 --> 01:22:26.770 Petrified octopus arm. 01:22:28.070 --> 01:22:31.010 Soft-bodied creatures just don't petrify today. 01:22:31.710 --> 01:22:33.150 They get eaten by somebody. 01:22:34.930 --> 01:22:37.070 Even animals don't petrify in the jungle of Africa. 01:22:37.150 --> 01:22:38.310 They get scattered all over the place. 01:22:38.410 --> 01:22:39.410 You know, the bones are dragged around. 01:22:39.510 --> 01:22:40.570 Even the bones get chewed up. 01:22:41.490 --> 01:22:41.970 What happened? 01:22:42.450 --> 01:22:44.490 Well, the Bible says the fountains of the deep broke open. 01:22:45.290 --> 01:22:46.270 I think the earth got hit. 01:22:46.350 --> 01:22:48.070 It wobbled for a while, and it cracked apart. 01:22:48.590 --> 01:22:51.410 And the water underneath that used to be there, mentioned in Psalm 136 and Psalm 01:22:51.410 --> 01:22:52.930 24, came shooting to the surface. 01:22:53.890 --> 01:22:57.970 Then this dump of ice would cause all these effects that we talked about. 01:22:58.410 --> 01:23:00.470 And the earth, the canopy would collapse. 01:23:00.570 --> 01:23:01.670 It rained 40 days and 40 nights. 01:23:01.730 --> 01:23:03.770 We still have the scars today where the earth broke open. 01:23:03.890 --> 01:23:04.970 They're called the fault lines. 01:23:05.630 --> 01:23:07.990 And you can study earth science from this perspective, and it makes a whole lot more 01:23:07.990 --> 01:23:08.610 sense, I think. 01:23:08.950 --> 01:23:13.650 The hot water coming out from inside the crust of the earth would hit the water and 01:23:13.650 --> 01:23:14.950 kill critters like crazy. 01:23:16.370 --> 01:23:19.350 As the water came shooting out, it's going to lift up the basalt 01:23:19.350 --> 01:23:21.830 underneath as the continental plates slide back. 01:23:22.110 --> 01:23:24.790 As they slide back, it's going to cause what are called... it'll make what's 01:23:24.790 --> 01:23:27.570 called wrinkled mountains, folded mountains. 01:23:27.930 --> 01:23:31.350 In British Columbia, where I was yesterday, they have mountain ranges there 01:23:31.350 --> 01:23:34.310 that are obviously pushed from the end, and it's wrinkled up. 01:23:36.150 --> 01:23:38.790 Wrinkled mountains like this have to be pushed from sideways. 01:23:41.150 --> 01:23:44.690 This water came shooting out probably would kill everything in the ocean within 01:23:44.690 --> 01:23:47.950 a few hundred miles of the cracks, because hot water, when it's regular 01:23:47.950 --> 01:23:49.230 water, kills the fishies. 01:23:49.970 --> 01:23:52.890 If you poured a gallon of boiling water into your aquarium, you would kill the 01:23:52.890 --> 01:23:55.310 fishies within a certain radius, okay? 01:23:55.950 --> 01:23:57.610 And when hot water comes out, it does that. 01:23:57.730 --> 01:24:02.530 All over the world, diatomaceous earth is found, sometimes in huge collections like 01:24:02.530 --> 01:24:03.610 the one in Lompoc, California. 01:24:04.210 --> 01:24:07.610 Now, diatoms are really, really tiny, glass-bodied creatures. 01:24:07.790 --> 01:24:09.270 Under the microscope, they look gorgeous. 01:24:09.590 --> 01:24:10.570 There's some diatoms here. 01:24:11.250 --> 01:24:12.710 When they float around in the ocean, they die. 01:24:12.750 --> 01:24:14.910 When they sink to the bottom, then their kids die and sink to the bottom, 01:24:14.970 --> 01:24:17.610 and the grandkids die and sink to the bottom, and it takes about a thousand 01:24:17.610 --> 01:24:19.330 years to get one inch of diatoms. 01:24:19.410 --> 01:24:20.430 They are so tiny. 01:24:21.410 --> 01:24:24.150 You can take diatomaceous earth, you can buy it at the hardware store, 01:24:24.450 --> 01:24:28.210 and you can sprinkle around your house, and it is so tiny, insects get it stuck in 01:24:28.210 --> 01:24:30.050 the pores of their skin, and it kills the insects. 01:24:31.030 --> 01:24:32.830 It's a good purely natural insecticide. 01:24:33.230 --> 01:24:33.970 It's real cheap. 01:24:34.730 --> 01:24:37.470 Diatomaceous earth is used in swimming pool filters, it's used in detergents, 01:24:37.550 --> 01:24:39.650 it's used in fertilizers, it's used for kitty litter. 01:24:40.510 --> 01:24:42.470 The oil dry is made of diatomaceous earth. 01:24:42.990 --> 01:24:45.610 When I went out to Lompoc, California, when I was preaching out there, 01:24:45.950 --> 01:24:48.750 I went and visited the largest diatomaceous earth quarry in the world, 01:24:48.850 --> 01:24:49.150 I think. 01:24:49.750 --> 01:24:53.610 The diatomaceous earth is 1500 feet thick. 01:24:54.610 --> 01:24:57.510 They dig it out with bulldozers and huge cranes. 01:24:57.530 --> 01:24:59.070 They are digging out this diatomaceous earth. 01:24:59.870 --> 01:25:02.990 I asked the guy, the foreman at the job there, I said, do you find anything 01:25:02.990 --> 01:25:04.450 unusual in this diatomaceous earth? 01:25:04.610 --> 01:25:08.370 He said, we find millions, probably trillions of fossils. 01:25:09.070 --> 01:25:12.990 Here's a fish fossil in diatomaceous earth. 01:25:14.430 --> 01:25:17.510 These little herring are found by the billions. 01:25:18.890 --> 01:25:22.190 Actually, he gave me a chunk of diatomaceous earth from the quarry. 01:25:22.230 --> 01:25:23.050 This is it right here. 01:25:23.270 --> 01:25:25.650 It's just like chalk, so if you handle it, it's going to break. 01:25:25.710 --> 01:25:26.590 It's real lightweight. 01:25:27.570 --> 01:25:33.570 This one little square foot here probably contains 40 to 60 fish fossils. 01:25:33.710 --> 01:25:34.770 Can you see the skeletons in there? 01:25:35.690 --> 01:25:36.690 Just in one square foot. 01:25:37.950 --> 01:25:38.890 He said it's this way everywhere. 01:25:40.230 --> 01:25:41.030 What happened? 01:25:42.390 --> 01:25:46.770 They were digging in the diatomaceous earth quarry in 1976 and they came across 01:25:46.770 --> 01:25:48.870 a skeleton of a whale. 01:25:49.950 --> 01:25:52.050 A baleen whale standing on end. 01:25:52.190 --> 01:25:53.630 The whale was 80 feet long. 01:25:55.150 --> 01:25:58.890 Now the layers of diatoms were also tilted, so it wasn't the height of the 01:25:58.890 --> 01:26:00.830 whale that becomes the problem, but the thickness of a whale. 01:26:00.930 --> 01:26:02.630 Maybe 8 or 10 or 15 feet thick. 01:26:03.910 --> 01:26:06.630 Now if it takes a thousand years for an inch of diatoms to accumulate, 01:26:07.470 --> 01:26:09.850 how are you going to preserve an entire whale skeleton? 01:26:11.130 --> 01:26:13.870 You think the whale's going to lay at the bottom of the ocean for 50,000 years 01:26:13.870 --> 01:26:14.790 waiting to get preserved? 01:26:16.550 --> 01:26:18.570 No, I think something's going to go eat it, right? 01:26:20.910 --> 01:26:24.570 The rapid accumulation of diatoms, to me, indicates there was a flood when 01:26:24.570 --> 01:26:25.630 hot water came shooting out. 01:26:26.030 --> 01:26:29.330 And it just so happens Lompoc, California is right on the San Andreas 01:26:29.330 --> 01:26:29.850 fault line. 01:26:30.790 --> 01:26:33.410 I think that's one of the places where the earth cracked open, the water came out, 01:26:33.450 --> 01:26:36.810 and it killed the diatoms within a few hundred miles, and they snowed to the 01:26:36.810 --> 01:26:36.990 bottom. 01:26:37.950 --> 01:26:40.730 And the swirling waters would put them in big, huge, thick layers, and they're 01:26:40.730 --> 01:26:41.590 digging them out today. 01:26:43.050 --> 01:26:44.470 And there's a big chunk of it right there. 01:26:44.510 --> 01:26:46.050 You can come see for yourself, the diatomaceous earth. 01:26:46.330 --> 01:26:49.650 The chalk cliffs of Dover, also 300 feet thick of solid chalk. 01:26:50.370 --> 01:26:52.510 Actually, the Latin word cretia means chalk. 01:26:52.890 --> 01:26:56.090 So the Cretaceous age they talk about in the textbook comes from the age of chalk. 01:26:56.090 --> 01:26:57.150 That's all baloney. 01:26:57.530 --> 01:26:58.490 There wasn't a chalk age. 01:26:58.850 --> 01:27:00.850 There were layers of chalk formed during the flood. 01:27:02.010 --> 01:27:05.610 Thick layers of chalk, sometimes accumulating in little piles. 01:27:06.370 --> 01:27:09.450 And this calcite would get together and end up in huge piles like they have in the 01:27:09.450 --> 01:27:11.590 chalk cliffs of Dover over there, 300 feet thick. 01:27:11.890 --> 01:27:15.950 The Bible says in Genesis 7, the waters prevailed and increased greatly upon the 01:27:15.950 --> 01:27:16.130 earth. 01:27:18.610 --> 01:27:20.510 And the ark went upon the waters. 01:27:21.370 --> 01:27:24.670 In the Hovind theory, during the first few months of the flood, dead animals would 01:27:24.670 --> 01:27:25.170 settle out. 01:27:25.590 --> 01:27:26.290 They would get buried. 01:27:27.430 --> 01:27:30.650 Swirling water would tend to make them go in little eddies or end up with fossil 01:27:30.650 --> 01:27:31.390 graveyards. 01:27:31.810 --> 01:27:34.450 Moving water, if you'll go along a river during flood stage, you'll see little 01:27:34.450 --> 01:27:37.070 eddies, you know, swirling, little mini whirlpools. 01:27:37.190 --> 01:27:38.670 Stuff tends to accumulate in those. 01:27:39.690 --> 01:27:42.470 And then when it gets buried, you'd get, you know, piles of gravel, for instance, 01:27:42.570 --> 01:27:43.850 like they have in South Bend, Indiana. 01:27:44.890 --> 01:27:45.970 Huge gravel beds. 01:27:46.470 --> 01:27:50.190 Probably the whole Florida peninsula is all basically sand. 01:27:50.930 --> 01:27:54.770 Maybe that was a big swirling eddy that deposited a sandbar, which we call Florida 01:27:54.770 --> 01:27:55.590 and live on today. 01:27:56.390 --> 01:27:58.030 This would happen during a worldwide flood. 01:27:58.790 --> 01:28:01.010 Many of the features of the earth, if you think of it from a flood 01:28:01.010 --> 01:28:03.650 perspective, this is the best explanation to explain these things. 01:28:04.070 --> 01:28:06.710 Moving water automatically sorts particles by density. 01:28:07.650 --> 01:28:08.910 Heavier stuff drops out first. 01:28:09.050 --> 01:28:11.210 As the current slows down, different stuff drops out. 01:28:11.750 --> 01:28:13.090 We've got this thing on the table here. 01:28:13.350 --> 01:28:14.490 You can play with these things all day. 01:28:14.550 --> 01:28:15.270 You can buy them at the mall. 01:28:15.590 --> 01:28:20.090 Different colors of sand, when you flip it over, as the sand drops down, it 01:28:20.090 --> 01:28:21.450 automatically makes more layers. 01:28:22.330 --> 01:28:25.270 There's only two different colors of sand in there, black and white, two different 01:28:25.270 --> 01:28:25.810 densities. 01:28:26.590 --> 01:28:29.990 Why doesn't it just make all the dark stuff at the bottom, or denser, 01:28:30.050 --> 01:28:31.230 and all the light stuff at the top? 01:28:31.490 --> 01:28:33.490 Instead, it always makes multiple layers. 01:28:34.730 --> 01:28:37.950 During a flood, you get this same phenomenon, not just denser at the bottom 01:28:37.950 --> 01:28:38.770 and lighter on top. 01:28:38.850 --> 01:28:40.170 You'd get them all mixed together. 01:28:41.650 --> 01:28:42.670 And it'll make many layers. 01:28:42.770 --> 01:28:43.250 You can watch it. 01:28:44.270 --> 01:28:45.290 We're talking about something else. 01:28:45.350 --> 01:28:45.810 You don't have to watch it. 01:28:45.810 --> 01:28:46.870 You can watch it all the time if you like. 01:28:47.270 --> 01:28:50.650 Anyway, multiple layering happens during a flood also. 01:28:51.090 --> 01:28:54.150 There are several phenomena that happen with rapidly moving mud. 01:28:55.090 --> 01:28:58.830 Underwater landslides are called turbidity currents, and they can go incredibly fast. 01:28:59.330 --> 01:29:02.030 Back in 1929, the transatlantic cable was cut. 01:29:02.110 --> 01:29:04.150 They had an earthquake, and there was a mudslide underwater. 01:29:05.010 --> 01:29:06.150 There were several cables. 01:29:06.230 --> 01:29:07.410 They knew how far apart they were. 01:29:07.850 --> 01:29:11.450 And so when one cable got snapped, and the next cable got snapped, 01:29:11.510 --> 01:29:13.490 they knew the exact times when the cable was snapped. 01:29:13.490 --> 01:29:20.350 And they calculated the mud was going 70 miles an hour underwater and covered 01:29:20.350 --> 01:29:21.950 40,000 square miles. 01:29:22.570 --> 01:29:24.070 One underwater mudslide. 01:29:24.350 --> 01:29:27.990 Can you imagine during Noah's flood, how many thousands of square miles of 01:29:27.990 --> 01:29:30.410 things would be covered by mudslides just from the water moving around? 01:29:31.810 --> 01:29:35.270 Swirling water would tend to put critters in in big swirling eddies, and they would 01:29:35.270 --> 01:29:35.650 rot. 01:29:35.870 --> 01:29:38.910 While they're swirling around for three months, the head rots off, the ribs rot 01:29:38.910 --> 01:29:40.610 off, the tail rots off, the legs rot off. 01:29:40.850 --> 01:29:44.450 And you end up finding, like this picture shows, dinosaur bones in twisted contorted 01:29:44.450 --> 01:29:45.030 positions. 01:29:45.630 --> 01:29:46.590 Here's a dinosaur backbone. 01:29:46.790 --> 01:29:48.150 No head, no ribs, no feet. 01:29:49.630 --> 01:29:51.870 Tangled up messes called fossil graveyards. 01:29:52.510 --> 01:29:54.570 There's a fossil graveyard discovered in 1934. 01:29:55.670 --> 01:29:58.710 It said the concentration of fossils was like logs in a jam. 01:29:59.650 --> 01:30:01.530 Fossil graveyards are found all over the world. 01:30:01.630 --> 01:30:02.710 I mean there are thousands of these. 01:30:02.890 --> 01:30:07.290 Huge piles of things died, or got buried at least, in one place. 01:30:07.870 --> 01:30:09.890 Doesn't tell us where they died, we just know where they ended up getting 01:30:09.890 --> 01:30:10.170 buried. 01:30:10.410 --> 01:30:13.630 Here's a picture showing four dinosaurs, or small hoofed mammals. 01:30:13.750 --> 01:30:14.430 I'm sorry, not dinosaurs. 01:30:14.670 --> 01:30:17.410 Four of them in Nebraska that were found in the swimming position. 01:30:19.530 --> 01:30:23.170 They're all fossilized, but they were swimming. 01:30:23.930 --> 01:30:26.830 Probably in water getting muddier and muddier, and they ended up getting buried, 01:30:26.930 --> 01:30:30.270 drowning in that position, and covered and fossilized. 01:30:30.930 --> 01:30:32.510 It doesn't take long for things to fossilize. 01:30:32.870 --> 01:30:34.770 There's a place in Africa called the Karoo Formation. 01:30:34.950 --> 01:30:40.530 Estimates are there are 800,000 million, that's 800 billion, vertebrate animals 01:30:40.530 --> 01:30:43.070 buried in this one big formation across Africa. 01:30:44.810 --> 01:30:45.490 What happened? 01:30:45.770 --> 01:30:46.650 Well there was a flood. 01:30:47.330 --> 01:30:54.470 Back in 1878 they found in a coal mine in Belgium, iguanodon skeletons running 01:30:54.470 --> 01:30:56.290 through 100 feet vertically of rock. 01:30:56.530 --> 01:30:59.110 All these iguanodon skeletons, at least 100 feet of rock, deposited very 01:30:59.110 --> 01:31:00.330 quickly, obviously. 01:31:00.730 --> 01:31:04.990 Up in northern Canada there's a place called Ellis Island. 01:31:05.510 --> 01:31:08.690 There on Ellis Island, Ellsmer Island, there are no trees at all, none, 01:31:09.130 --> 01:31:11.150 yet they find petrified redwood stumps up there. 01:31:12.550 --> 01:31:15.190 There are certainly no redwood trees growing up there in northern Canada, 01:31:15.610 --> 01:31:15.830 okay. 01:31:16.710 --> 01:31:19.290 There are only a few select locations where they grow along the California 01:31:19.290 --> 01:31:20.870 coast, and up into Oregon a little bit. 01:31:21.750 --> 01:31:24.210 And it doesn't take long for things to petrify, not at all. 01:31:24.530 --> 01:31:25.690 Things don't petrify very quickly. 01:31:25.810 --> 01:31:28.410 We've got some examples here on the table of things that petrified very quickly. 01:31:28.710 --> 01:31:29.530 I'll show you those in a second. 01:31:29.750 --> 01:31:31.310 Here's a picture of a petrified water wheel. 01:31:31.790 --> 01:31:32.870 Here's petrified firewood. 01:31:33.930 --> 01:31:35.570 It was chopped on before it got petrified. 01:31:36.150 --> 01:31:38.990 You can go to Southern Forest World Museum in Georgia, way across Georgia, 01:31:39.150 --> 01:31:41.190 there's a mummified dog stuck inside a tree. 01:31:41.870 --> 01:31:43.750 Some people say it's petrified, I don't know if it's mummified, 01:31:43.850 --> 01:31:44.530 I've not been there yet. 01:31:45.270 --> 01:31:48.830 But anyway, how can a dog get mummified just in a few, probably a few years? 01:31:49.170 --> 01:31:52.490 Chased a coon up the tree, got stuck, they named it Stucky of course, 01:31:52.570 --> 01:31:53.390 that's the name for the dog. 01:31:53.790 --> 01:31:55.670 They had a contest to name it, so they called it Stucky. 01:31:57.190 --> 01:31:59.410 They cut the tree down for firewood, there's a dog inside. 01:31:59.910 --> 01:32:02.970 Here's a petrified cowboy boot with the cowboy's legs still in it. 01:32:03.670 --> 01:32:05.310 The boot was made in the 1950s. 01:32:06.390 --> 01:32:10.650 Got his leg shot off or torn off or who knows what, but there's his leg petrified. 01:32:11.150 --> 01:32:12.990 Here's a petrified fish giving birth. 01:32:14.370 --> 01:32:18.050 A petrified hammer was found from a marine barracks from World War II. 01:32:18.990 --> 01:32:19.790 Petrified hammer. 01:32:20.190 --> 01:32:21.750 Petrified hat found in New Zealand. 01:32:22.610 --> 01:32:24.610 Here's a kid, a kid sent me this right here on the table. 01:32:25.050 --> 01:32:28.770 A petrified crayon found in Arizona. 01:32:28.950 --> 01:32:30.370 I mean the crayon has turned to stone. 01:32:32.330 --> 01:32:33.970 We have right here a petrified pickle. 01:32:34.670 --> 01:32:35.390 It's in our museum. 01:32:35.510 --> 01:32:38.450 Well, it's here tonight, but a guy sent me this and the jar with it. 01:32:38.490 --> 01:32:39.430 The jar is still in our museum. 01:32:41.010 --> 01:32:43.050 He said, Well Hovind, I found this old house in Montana. 01:32:43.110 --> 01:32:46.710 The roof was gone, the house been empty at least 30 years, but we were digging around 01:32:46.710 --> 01:32:49.830 through what's left of this house and found the pantry and there were pickle 01:32:49.830 --> 01:32:53.370 jars in there, but the lid to one of the jars rusted and the pickle inside turned 01:32:53.370 --> 01:32:53.770 to stone. 01:32:54.490 --> 01:32:55.550 Would you like it for your museum? 01:32:56.210 --> 01:32:57.190 I said, Well, yeah, of course. 01:32:58.310 --> 01:32:59.330 One kid wrote me a letter. 01:32:59.470 --> 01:33:00.250 Here's the letter right here. 01:33:01.130 --> 01:33:03.550 He said, Brother Hovind, I was eight years old doing a science experiment. 01:33:03.690 --> 01:33:07.370 I put a bunch of acorns in a bucket of water to see if they would sprout and I 01:33:07.370 --> 01:33:07.890 forgot about them. 01:33:08.930 --> 01:33:11.510 A year later, my mom saw the bucket on the back porch. 01:33:12.170 --> 01:33:14.190 She said, Get rid of that bucket and all that junk out there. 01:33:15.050 --> 01:33:19.150 He said, The acorns had turned to stone in one year. 01:33:19.490 --> 01:33:22.370 I have right here a baggie of petrified acorns. 01:33:24.490 --> 01:33:25.690 It doesn't take long, folks. 01:33:25.750 --> 01:33:27.790 Don't let him tell you it takes millions of years for things to petrify. 01:33:27.850 --> 01:33:28.390 It's not true. 01:33:28.930 --> 01:33:30.990 A guy sent me a picture of a petrified pin cushion. 01:33:31.630 --> 01:33:34.750 The pin cushion, you can see the pins had rusted off, except where you can see the 01:33:34.750 --> 01:33:36.490 rust marks where the pins had been stuck in there. 01:33:36.790 --> 01:33:37.670 Petrified pin cushion. 01:33:38.270 --> 01:33:41.190 They dug up a grave in Tennessee several years ago. 01:33:41.470 --> 01:33:45.490 They found the body of the person inside the grave had petrified, turned to stone. 01:33:46.030 --> 01:33:47.790 The doctor died and they buried him. 01:33:48.130 --> 01:33:49.430 Fourteen years later, his wife died. 01:33:49.490 --> 01:33:50.310 It's back in 1881. 01:33:50.830 --> 01:33:53.970 They dug a hole to bury grandma and water went into the hole. 01:33:54.350 --> 01:33:56.570 And they thought, Oh, we don't want to bury grandma in the water, so they buried 01:33:56.570 --> 01:33:57.310 her someplace else. 01:33:57.930 --> 01:34:00.270 And the kids got worried about grandpa in that moving water. 01:34:00.430 --> 01:34:01.650 It hit an underground spring, apparently. 01:34:02.410 --> 01:34:03.370 So they dug up grandpa. 01:34:03.490 --> 01:34:04.730 He'd been in the ground 14 years. 01:34:05.150 --> 01:34:08.250 And the article says, The occupant of the coffin had been turned to stone, 01:34:08.370 --> 01:34:11.750 presumably as a result of the continual flow of water. 01:34:12.810 --> 01:34:15.250 It said the arms had rotted off, but the rest of the body had turned to 01:34:15.250 --> 01:34:16.030 stone, petrified. 01:34:17.230 --> 01:34:19.610 A guy found a petrified man in Montana. 01:34:20.150 --> 01:34:21.250 He took it five foot eight. 01:34:21.390 --> 01:34:24.330 The guy carried around as a museum curiosity for years and carnivals and 01:34:24.330 --> 01:34:24.970 fairs and stuff. 01:34:25.510 --> 01:34:29.230 Petrified body of a man found on the beach of Montana, on the beach of a river. 01:34:30.290 --> 01:34:32.570 In Sao Paulo, Brazil, a lady went into the hospital. 01:34:32.690 --> 01:34:33.710 She said, My side's been hurting. 01:34:34.330 --> 01:34:35.590 The lady was 62 years old. 01:34:36.290 --> 01:34:38.710 The x-ray turned and found a petrified fetus, a baby, inside. 01:34:40.090 --> 01:34:40.830 She'd been pregnant. 01:34:40.930 --> 01:34:43.770 The baby almost came to term and died, apparently, and turned to stone inside her 01:34:43.770 --> 01:34:44.050 body. 01:34:46.090 --> 01:34:48.090 62-year-old lady with a petrified baby inside. 01:34:48.530 --> 01:34:48.990 Here's the article. 01:34:49.090 --> 01:34:49.750 You can read it for yourself. 01:34:50.870 --> 01:34:54.810 I met a guy in Maryland who said he worked at a hospital, Brian Lackey, who lives in 01:34:54.810 --> 01:34:55.110 Washington. 01:34:56.490 --> 01:34:57.190 There's his phone number. 01:34:57.230 --> 01:34:57.770 He was in Maryland. 01:34:58.150 --> 01:35:00.610 He said they brought a lady in there and took out a petrified fetus out of her 01:35:00.610 --> 01:35:00.850 body. 01:35:02.450 --> 01:35:06.530 The baby's in a museum now, or in a medical hospital up there. 01:35:07.110 --> 01:35:07.870 Petrified fetus. 01:35:08.170 --> 01:35:11.190 Here's petrified sacks of flour found in Arkansas. 01:35:11.370 --> 01:35:12.150 A flour mill flooded. 01:35:12.270 --> 01:35:13.330 The flour turned to stone. 01:35:13.430 --> 01:35:16.910 The sacks of flour were buried in water and mud and turned to rock. 01:35:18.410 --> 01:35:19.990 There's our petrified pickle right there. 01:35:20.070 --> 01:35:21.110 You can see the jar it was found in. 01:35:21.190 --> 01:35:23.270 Come by our museum at Dinosaur Adventure Land and see all this. 01:35:23.790 --> 01:35:26.370 So it's true there are layers to the earth. 01:35:27.110 --> 01:35:28.750 It's also true they can form very quickly. 01:35:29.490 --> 01:35:31.810 I think the flood's the best explanation for this. 01:35:32.590 --> 01:35:34.790 Skeptics will say, wait a minute, why are all dinosaur bones found in the 01:35:34.790 --> 01:35:35.170 same layer? 01:35:36.270 --> 01:35:37.230 First of all, they're not. 01:35:37.510 --> 01:35:40.390 But it is true there is a little bit of sorting to the fossils. 01:35:41.250 --> 01:35:43.730 And I think there's a better explanation for that than evolution. 01:35:44.410 --> 01:35:46.950 They're only told in school this is showing an evolutionary pattern. 01:35:47.170 --> 01:35:49.410 This is pure baloney in my totally unbiased opinion. 01:35:51.250 --> 01:35:54.510 First place, the fossils are not sorted clearly like the textbook says. 01:35:54.510 --> 01:36:00.430 David Ropp said, one of the ironies of the evolution-creation debate is the 01:36:00.430 --> 01:36:03.690 creationists have accepted the mistaken notion that the fossil record shows a 01:36:03.690 --> 01:36:05.170 detailed and orderly progression. 01:36:07.110 --> 01:36:10.750 And they've gone to great lengths to accommodate this fact in their flood 01:36:10.750 --> 01:36:11.210 geology. 01:36:12.130 --> 01:36:13.390 There isn't an orderly progression. 01:36:13.750 --> 01:36:17.090 If there is any progression at all, there's a better explanation called the 01:36:17.090 --> 01:36:17.310 flood. 01:36:17.750 --> 01:36:22.490 I think fossils are separated by their density and we'll cover that in a minute. 01:36:22.490 --> 01:36:24.430 But there is no geologic column. 01:36:24.570 --> 01:36:25.710 We covered that in video number four. 01:36:26.570 --> 01:36:28.910 They date the rocks by the fossils, date the fossils by the rocks. 01:36:28.990 --> 01:36:30.350 It's all based on circular reasoning. 01:36:31.150 --> 01:36:35.610 Moving water and liquefaction are much better explanations for the sorting in the 01:36:35.610 --> 01:36:36.150 fossil record. 01:36:36.690 --> 01:36:39.850 There are several things that happen with high velocity water in a flood moving 01:36:39.850 --> 01:36:40.790 around, swirling around the world. 01:36:40.970 --> 01:36:45.110 You get liquefaction, you get, of course, abrasion and simple erosion, 01:36:45.350 --> 01:36:47.110 and you get hydraulic plucking. 01:36:47.990 --> 01:36:52.190 Rapidly moving water creates a vacuum and it sucks rocks right off the side. 01:36:52.610 --> 01:36:58.530 The big dam, the dam in Arizona, the Glen Canyon Dam in Arizona, 01:36:59.150 --> 01:37:03.430 they had water going through the pipes after having flood season, getting rid of 01:37:03.430 --> 01:37:06.050 as much water as they could, and it started going too fast. 01:37:07.030 --> 01:37:09.090 And they saw it turn red as it came out the side. 01:37:09.190 --> 01:37:10.170 They said, oh, shut it down. 01:37:10.250 --> 01:37:11.650 It's eroding the sides of the dam. 01:37:12.770 --> 01:37:16.150 Within, I think, 20 seconds, it took from the time that they got the message to shut 01:37:16.150 --> 01:37:18.590 the water down, scuba divers went down there. 01:37:18.630 --> 01:37:22.050 And during that, I think, 20 seconds, it had eroded an area in the side of the 01:37:22.050 --> 01:37:25.910 mountain the size of a basketball court about four feet deep. 01:37:26.510 --> 01:37:27.670 Sucked it right off the side. 01:37:28.270 --> 01:37:32.110 Rapidly moving water dissolves whatever it's moving against. 01:37:32.710 --> 01:37:34.230 A process called hydraulic plucking. 01:37:34.570 --> 01:37:36.210 There's another phenomenon called liquefaction. 01:37:36.770 --> 01:37:39.270 If you go stand out on the beach, walk out into the surf where the water's 01:37:39.270 --> 01:37:41.170 about knee deep, just stand there, don't move. 01:37:41.810 --> 01:37:44.930 Every time the waves come by, the high part of the wave is heavier than the low 01:37:44.930 --> 01:37:45.190 part. 01:37:45.570 --> 01:37:46.190 There's more water. 01:37:46.730 --> 01:37:48.670 The high part is going to press the sand down. 01:37:49.130 --> 01:37:51.750 As the low part comes past you, it's going to relieve the pressure. 01:37:52.370 --> 01:37:54.470 And if you're down there with goggles looking at it, you can see the sand 01:37:54.470 --> 01:37:55.430 hopping up off the bottom. 01:37:56.370 --> 01:37:57.510 Just stand there and don't move. 01:37:57.550 --> 01:38:00.510 Within about five minutes, you'll be about that deep, your feet covered up in sand. 01:38:01.190 --> 01:38:02.010 And you didn't move. 01:38:03.190 --> 01:38:06.530 What's happening is the pressing and relieving of the pressure is causing a 01:38:06.530 --> 01:38:08.050 phenomenon called liquefaction. 01:38:08.990 --> 01:38:11.030 This is automatically going to sort things. 01:38:11.810 --> 01:38:16.110 Now, during the flood, you would get enormous liquefaction because just the 01:38:16.110 --> 01:38:19.910 tides, as the earth turns under the moon, if the earth is covered with water, 01:38:20.910 --> 01:38:24.430 the tides are still going to work during the flood, but now there's no continents 01:38:24.430 --> 01:38:25.030 to stop them. 01:38:25.790 --> 01:38:28.530 Today, the tide just gets going and then it bumps into something like South 01:38:28.530 --> 01:38:28.810 America. 01:38:28.990 --> 01:38:30.690 So, you know, all the energy is taken out. 01:38:31.210 --> 01:38:32.670 But during the flood, you wouldn't have that. 01:38:33.530 --> 01:38:36.710 Computer models tell us that if the earth were covered with water, smoothed out and 01:38:36.710 --> 01:38:41.750 covered with water, the tides would change 200 feet every six hours and 25 minutes. 01:38:42.950 --> 01:38:45.490 Well, today here in Florida, they change, you know, what, 16 inches. 01:38:45.630 --> 01:38:46.670 You know, we don't get much tide here. 01:38:47.070 --> 01:38:49.910 I've been up to the Bay of Fundy in northern Canada where the tide changes up 01:38:49.910 --> 01:38:50.490 to 100 feet. 01:38:50.570 --> 01:38:51.530 It's a record, 102 feet. 01:38:52.230 --> 01:38:56.370 Anchorage, Alaska has the second highest tide in North America, 30 foot tidal 01:38:56.370 --> 01:38:56.710 change. 01:38:57.430 --> 01:39:00.570 You can see the water come rushing up and then six hours later start rushing back 01:39:00.570 --> 01:39:00.770 down. 01:39:01.190 --> 01:39:03.970 So, you'd get a 200 foot tidal change during the flood. 01:39:04.630 --> 01:39:08.770 This 200 feet of water would do enormous things to the surface underneath called 01:39:08.770 --> 01:39:09.410 liquefaction. 01:39:10.010 --> 01:39:10.890 It would sort things. 01:39:11.330 --> 01:39:14.930 Actually, a guy took an aquarium, big aquarium one time, and he put a big 01:39:14.930 --> 01:39:18.750 hot water bottle in the bottom and poked it full of thousands of holes and hooked a 01:39:18.750 --> 01:39:19.390 hose up to it. 01:39:20.430 --> 01:39:24.350 Then he dumped into the aquarium dirt, rocks, gravel, sand, mud, dead fish, 01:39:24.450 --> 01:39:28.190 dead amphibians, dead reptiles, mixed them all up in a cement mixer and 01:39:28.190 --> 01:39:28.690 dumped them in. 01:39:29.270 --> 01:39:32.470 Turned the hose on, water came out through the bottom and bubbled up through this 01:39:32.470 --> 01:39:34.590 aquarium to fill up the aquarium. 01:39:34.770 --> 01:39:37.850 Of course, as it fills up the aquarium, it's going to lift the particles and then 01:39:37.850 --> 01:39:41.610 drop them again and the denser ones drop a little faster every time. 01:39:42.870 --> 01:39:47.750 Within just a few hours of filling this aquarium, it sorted all the animals and it 01:39:47.750 --> 01:39:52.610 put the fish at the bottom, amphibians next, reptiles next, birds on top. 01:39:54.330 --> 01:39:55.270 Automatically sorted them. 01:39:56.650 --> 01:39:59.790 Now it would look like they got buried in that order, but no, they got sorted in 01:39:59.790 --> 01:40:00.950 that order by liquefaction. 01:40:01.850 --> 01:40:06.850 Plus, if huge areas of sand are buried under there, if something is lighter and 01:40:06.850 --> 01:40:11.750 it's buried by a heavier, denser layer on top, you can get what's called a sand 01:40:11.750 --> 01:40:12.210 plume. 01:40:13.010 --> 01:40:16.570 All of a sudden, things are moving around pretty soon, it bubbles to the top. 01:40:17.190 --> 01:40:20.450 And big chunks of lighter material like sand would bubble out to the top. 01:40:20.790 --> 01:40:23.450 That's probably what caused Ayers Rock in Australia. 01:40:24.390 --> 01:40:27.630 It's a giant sand plume, badly eroded today. 01:40:28.170 --> 01:40:30.950 And you can see if you get up close to it, there are millions of little tiny holes in 01:40:30.950 --> 01:40:31.050 it. 01:40:32.050 --> 01:40:35.990 It's probably a big, what's called a sand plume, where the sand just bubbled up 01:40:35.990 --> 01:40:37.810 through the heavier material on top of it. 01:40:38.610 --> 01:40:40.690 Liquefaction also causes the ground to turn like jelly. 01:40:40.970 --> 01:40:44.270 During earthquakes, like here's these buildings in Japan, during the earthquake, 01:40:44.390 --> 01:40:47.410 the ground shakes, all the water comes to the top, and the buildings just sink in. 01:40:50.800 --> 01:40:53.180 If animals are sorted at all, it's probably based on habitat. 01:40:54.640 --> 01:40:56.680 Evolutionists will say, Hovind, don't you know clams are found at the 01:40:56.680 --> 01:40:58.240 bottom of the geologic column? 01:40:58.900 --> 01:41:00.620 I say, well, first, they're not always found at the bottom. 01:41:00.740 --> 01:41:04.040 But if they are found at the bottom, generally, that's probably because that's 01:41:04.040 --> 01:41:04.580 where they live. 01:41:06.300 --> 01:41:08.680 Logic would tell us they'd be the first ones buried, right? 01:41:09.780 --> 01:41:11.340 Animals might be sorted based on habitat. 01:41:11.460 --> 01:41:12.640 They might be sorted based on intelligence. 01:41:13.400 --> 01:41:16.140 You know, as far as anybody can figure out, clams are not too smart. 01:41:17.960 --> 01:41:19.240 They might be sorted based on mobility. 01:41:19.440 --> 01:41:20.860 Did you know clams can't run very fast? 01:41:22.180 --> 01:41:23.880 Might be sorted based on body density. 01:41:24.060 --> 01:41:25.780 Did you know clams are a little heavier than bird feathers? 01:41:27.680 --> 01:41:29.480 And birds are the last ones to drown in a flood. 01:41:30.640 --> 01:41:33.660 So if birds are found on top of the geologic column, that doesn't prove they 01:41:33.660 --> 01:41:35.740 evolved last, it proves they drowned last. 01:41:36.700 --> 01:41:39.000 Or they ended up floating to the top when they did drown. 01:41:39.680 --> 01:41:41.540 So the Bible says the high hills were covered. 01:41:41.620 --> 01:41:42.960 The earth was totally covered by a flood. 01:41:43.040 --> 01:41:43.800 15 cubits. 01:41:43.880 --> 01:41:46.260 That's about 22 feet over the mountains. 01:41:47.080 --> 01:41:47.820 Boy, God thinks of everything. 01:41:47.900 --> 01:41:52.740 That arc was 45 cubits or 30 cubits high, 45 feet. 01:41:53.460 --> 01:41:56.840 So there was, if it had 50 percent underwater, which is pretty heavy for a 01:41:56.840 --> 01:41:59.700 boat, still couldn't scrape bottom on any mountains. 01:41:59.840 --> 01:42:00.920 They were perfectly safe in there. 01:42:01.620 --> 01:42:02.340 God thought of everything. 01:42:02.860 --> 01:42:04.180 So skeptics say, where'd all the water go? 01:42:04.240 --> 01:42:04.860 Oh, it's still here. 01:42:05.120 --> 01:42:07.860 The Bible says in Genesis chapter 8, the water's assuaged. 01:42:08.840 --> 01:42:11.380 That means to drop down, to sink down. 01:42:12.100 --> 01:42:15.000 Now living, or an NIV says the wild animals, they weren't wild animals, 01:42:15.060 --> 01:42:15.540 they were tame. 01:42:15.900 --> 01:42:17.220 And it says the water's receded. 01:42:17.300 --> 01:42:18.280 That's not technically correct. 01:42:18.380 --> 01:42:19.840 They actually assuaged, it dropped down. 01:42:20.260 --> 01:42:23.380 If we filled this room four feet deep in water, and then all of a sudden the floor 01:42:23.380 --> 01:42:28.420 caved in over here and dropped down 10 feet, that's going to suck all the water 01:42:28.420 --> 01:42:29.820 from there into the hole. 01:42:30.520 --> 01:42:35.340 That's what happened in Winter Garden, Florida, where the neighborhood fell in. 01:42:35.420 --> 01:42:35.860 Anybody see that? 01:42:36.660 --> 01:42:39.840 All of a sudden about four houses and everything just dropped down about 30 01:42:39.840 --> 01:42:40.060 feet. 01:42:41.420 --> 01:42:42.980 Big sinkhole developed. 01:42:43.480 --> 01:42:45.300 I think it's Winter Garden, just somewhere near Orlando. 01:42:45.560 --> 01:42:46.880 That happens occasionally around the world. 01:42:47.160 --> 01:42:48.200 Things just sink down. 01:42:49.060 --> 01:42:52.920 Well, during the flood you'd get this sinking process as the ocean floors would 01:42:52.920 --> 01:42:55.540 drop out and the water would rush into those holes. 01:42:56.500 --> 01:42:58.420 The Bible says the water stood above the mountains. 01:42:58.780 --> 01:43:03.400 So I think during the first few months of the flood, the animals sorted out and 01:43:03.400 --> 01:43:04.720 fossils were forming. 01:43:05.160 --> 01:43:07.900 During the last part of the flood, the plates of the earth are still shifting 01:43:08.500 --> 01:43:12.400 and they're unstable, and they began to lift up or sink down different places. 01:43:12.600 --> 01:43:16.400 Thin spots sink down, other places lift up, forming mountain ranges. 01:43:17.120 --> 01:43:19.220 Water rushes off, forming erosion in a hurry. 01:43:19.620 --> 01:43:23.000 Bible says in Psalm 104, at thy rebuke, they fled. 01:43:23.960 --> 01:43:25.800 At the voice of thy thunder, they hasted away. 01:43:25.860 --> 01:43:26.700 Talking about the water. 01:43:27.160 --> 01:43:29.780 It says they go up by the mountains, they go down by the valleys. 01:43:33.370 --> 01:43:36.390 Now, many reference Bibles have a footnote right here, because this is an old English 01:43:36.390 --> 01:43:36.690 phrase. 01:43:36.770 --> 01:43:40.150 What this is saying is the mountains arose, the valleys sank down. 01:43:41.230 --> 01:43:43.650 During the last part of the flood, the mountains actually lifted up. 01:43:45.070 --> 01:43:46.670 So was Mount Everest underwater? 01:43:47.810 --> 01:43:48.810 Mount Everest wasn't there. 01:43:49.810 --> 01:43:53.090 It formed during the last part of the flood, as the mountains lifted up. 01:43:54.090 --> 01:43:55.270 So that area was underwater. 01:43:55.370 --> 01:43:56.690 That's how you explain the clams on top. 01:43:56.810 --> 01:44:00.370 But Mount Everest technically wasn't there until after the flood, or during the flood 01:44:00.370 --> 01:44:00.850 it formed. 01:44:01.630 --> 01:44:03.910 The ocean crust is thinner than continental crust. 01:44:04.630 --> 01:44:08.130 They know this from earthquakes, you know, checking the S&P waves with kind 01:44:08.130 --> 01:44:09.330 of like doing a sonogram of the earth. 01:44:09.370 --> 01:44:10.090 They do that all the time. 01:44:11.610 --> 01:44:13.150 Thinner spots would tend to sink down. 01:44:13.270 --> 01:44:16.070 Water is going to rush in, filling in these places, causing oceans. 01:44:16.670 --> 01:44:19.750 The crust of the earth is about 30 miles thick under the continents and about three 01:44:19.750 --> 01:44:22.010 miles thick, three to five miles thick, under the oceans. 01:44:22.370 --> 01:44:24.110 And the earth all busted up into plates like that. 01:44:24.470 --> 01:44:25.290 And some are still moving. 01:44:26.170 --> 01:44:28.890 This map shows the earthquake potential of different areas. 01:44:29.510 --> 01:44:31.870 Pensacola has just about zero chance of getting an earthquake. 01:44:32.950 --> 01:44:35.990 Now we have a chance of getting other problems, you know, like natural 01:44:35.990 --> 01:44:39.250 disasters, like maybe you know hurricanes or tornadoes or politicians. 01:44:39.570 --> 01:44:43.390 But those... not much chance of an earthquake here. 01:44:44.370 --> 01:44:47.410 I think the earth crust compared to the earth is pretty thin. 01:44:47.590 --> 01:44:49.570 30 miles compared to 8,000 is almost nothing. 01:44:49.930 --> 01:44:52.430 Kind of like a waterbed, you know, if you push down one place, someplace else 01:44:52.430 --> 01:44:52.830 lifts up. 01:44:53.710 --> 01:44:56.990 So as the earth settled out after the flood, you would get continents forming. 01:44:57.430 --> 01:45:01.230 Mountains arose, valleys sank down, water rushed off, erosion was incredible. 01:45:01.790 --> 01:45:07.870 These pictures show the canyon lake dam flood in New Bronzefield, Texas just in 01:45:07.870 --> 01:45:08.430 2002. 01:45:08.970 --> 01:45:12.590 The water went over the top of the spillway from the flood water and boy, 01:45:12.690 --> 01:45:16.110 it carved out canyons, washed out roadbeds in a real big hurry. 01:45:17.310 --> 01:45:20.730 Anybody that's been near a bad flood knows it doesn't take long for erosion to take 01:45:20.730 --> 01:45:21.030 place. 01:45:21.970 --> 01:45:24.730 And if you look out over the world, you can see erosion marks all over the 01:45:24.730 --> 01:45:24.990 place. 01:45:25.490 --> 01:45:29.070 I fly out west and you look out the window and you can see huge erosion patterns in 01:45:29.070 --> 01:45:29.930 places that never rain. 01:45:31.090 --> 01:45:32.430 Here's Slick Rock in Arizona. 01:45:32.610 --> 01:45:34.010 Obviously erosion did that. 01:45:34.670 --> 01:45:36.150 To me, the flood is the best explanation. 01:45:36.890 --> 01:45:42.350 When I flew from two days... three days ago from Spokane, Washington over to 01:45:42.350 --> 01:45:45.530 Seattle, Washington, you can fly over and see the Channel Scablands. 01:45:45.650 --> 01:45:46.450 It's unbelievable. 01:45:46.890 --> 01:45:48.990 There's the Dry Falls, Washington out there. 01:45:49.270 --> 01:45:51.530 Largest waterfall in the world with no water going over it. 01:45:52.650 --> 01:45:56.730 That's left over from either an ice dam breaking causing the Channel Scablands or 01:45:56.730 --> 01:45:57.430 from the flood. 01:45:58.130 --> 01:46:01.650 This shows what's called the Three Gossips, the rocks formation standing up 01:46:01.650 --> 01:46:02.910 with John Wayne riding around there someplace. 01:46:03.850 --> 01:46:06.170 The textbooks are going to say it takes millions of years to form these things. 01:46:07.550 --> 01:46:11.170 And you can see the buttes and the elevated plateaus, you know, obviously 01:46:11.170 --> 01:46:11.630 erosion. 01:46:12.470 --> 01:46:13.930 You can go see Bryce Canyon. 01:46:14.370 --> 01:46:14.690 Beautiful. 01:46:14.970 --> 01:46:18.050 I mean, it's basically wasted real estate, but it's, you know, beautiful looking 01:46:18.050 --> 01:46:18.310 anyway. 01:46:18.950 --> 01:46:20.550 They say it takes millions of years to do that. 01:46:21.630 --> 01:46:23.270 Here's a close-up view of the same type thing. 01:46:23.350 --> 01:46:27.230 You can see the little spires sticking up in the ground, off the ground. 01:46:28.110 --> 01:46:29.610 They say it takes millions of years. 01:46:29.950 --> 01:46:31.010 Oh, there's my ink pen on top. 01:46:31.130 --> 01:46:31.790 I don't think so. 01:46:33.750 --> 01:46:36.050 There's a pile of dirt we had in the backyard after one rainstorm. 01:46:36.110 --> 01:46:37.130 I went out and took a picture of it. 01:46:38.570 --> 01:46:42.210 Made what looked like exactly like Bryce Canyon after one rainstorm. 01:46:43.990 --> 01:46:46.630 Here's millions of years of erosion along a highway built a few months ago. 01:46:49.610 --> 01:46:50.930 Unprotected soil erodes quickly. 01:46:51.950 --> 01:46:55.390 It's evidence of a giant lake and millions of years of erosion right here. 01:46:55.650 --> 01:46:58.650 You can see the obvious took millions of years to form that, boys and girls. 01:46:59.370 --> 01:47:00.230 Oh, there's my glasses. 01:47:01.270 --> 01:47:02.870 Another close-up pile of that pile of dirt. 01:47:03.070 --> 01:47:04.190 Close-up of that pile of dirt. 01:47:04.250 --> 01:47:05.070 It doesn't take long. 01:47:05.510 --> 01:47:09.590 You can go out to Montana and see these erosion features that are just enormous. 01:47:10.750 --> 01:47:11.910 I fly out west quite often. 01:47:12.050 --> 01:47:15.430 I just look out the window and see, man, there was a flood. 01:47:16.110 --> 01:47:18.870 But see, God doesn't want people to look at the erosion of the world and think 01:47:18.870 --> 01:47:19.310 flood. 01:47:19.950 --> 01:47:23.150 He wants them to look at the erosion and think millions of years, because He 01:47:23.150 --> 01:47:24.210 doesn't want them to come to Christ. 01:47:24.870 --> 01:47:27.330 Here's some pictures of Dry Falls, Washington. 01:47:27.970 --> 01:47:30.770 Largest waterfall in the world, no water going over it. 01:47:32.170 --> 01:47:33.650 Just incredible erosion features. 01:47:33.750 --> 01:47:36.270 You can study that for yourself if you get time to look more into that. 01:47:36.550 --> 01:47:39.650 Talk about the water was 300 feet deep going over that waterfall. 01:47:40.830 --> 01:47:43.590 Niagara Falls is about four feet deep, the water going over. 01:47:44.090 --> 01:47:46.510 300 feet deep water going over a waterfall. 01:47:46.850 --> 01:47:48.990 There's an eastern Montana washout. 01:47:49.750 --> 01:47:52.610 It's interesting, most of the mountain ranges in the world follow the ocean 01:47:52.610 --> 01:47:53.070 basins. 01:47:53.490 --> 01:47:56.470 I think Walt Brown's theory is right on track, that the mountains arose, 01:47:56.570 --> 01:48:00.630 the valley sank down, the wrinkling of the pressing of the plates as they're sliding 01:48:00.630 --> 01:48:01.730 would cause all this. 01:48:02.230 --> 01:48:04.390 To me, that's by far the best explanation of all this. 01:48:05.190 --> 01:48:09.350 Bent rock layers, as you see in these pictures here, rocks don't bend very well. 01:48:10.410 --> 01:48:13.130 Bent rock layers, to me, indicate they were bent while they were soft. 01:48:14.390 --> 01:48:17.370 During the flood, you get thousands of feet of mud, and then during the end of 01:48:17.370 --> 01:48:20.670 the flood, you get the crust of the earth twisting and contorting, and then they 01:48:20.670 --> 01:48:22.110 slowly harden and turn to rock. 01:48:22.830 --> 01:48:29.310 I was in Crystal Cove State Park in Los Angeles, California, a couple years ago. 01:48:30.170 --> 01:48:33.350 You can see the close-ups here of these bent rock layers. 01:48:33.730 --> 01:48:36.290 We got up and looked at them real close, like with a magnifying glass. 01:48:36.750 --> 01:48:38.150 There are no cracks in these rocks. 01:48:39.090 --> 01:48:41.350 These were bent while they were all very soft layers. 01:48:41.990 --> 01:48:44.190 If they were bent after they were hard, they would fracture. 01:48:45.270 --> 01:48:46.370 They're not fractured. 01:48:47.090 --> 01:48:50.970 These were all formed quickly and all bent while they were still soft, and then they 01:48:50.970 --> 01:48:51.770 hardened into rock. 01:48:52.490 --> 01:48:54.970 As the mountains arose, the valleys sank down. 01:48:55.390 --> 01:49:01.650 The pressure would cause metamorphic rock, like marble, like they make tombstones out 01:49:01.650 --> 01:49:01.750 of. 01:49:01.750 --> 01:49:06.070 That's a result of the twisting of the crust of the earth. 01:49:06.550 --> 01:49:08.290 Skeptics say, how did the kangaroos get to Australia then? 01:49:08.350 --> 01:49:11.530 I mean, after the flood, Noah got off the ark, all the craters got off, but how did 01:49:11.530 --> 01:49:12.610 the kangaroos end up in Australia? 01:49:12.850 --> 01:49:14.050 Australia is surrounded by water. 01:49:14.190 --> 01:49:15.630 Kangaroos can't swim very well, they'll say. 01:49:16.850 --> 01:49:21.210 When Noah got off the ark, the continents were actually larger than they are today. 01:49:22.090 --> 01:49:23.530 That's going to sound strange, but let me explain. 01:49:24.010 --> 01:49:27.730 The oceans were smaller because there was still a bunch of ice at the North and 01:49:27.730 --> 01:49:28.190 South Pole. 01:49:29.070 --> 01:49:32.030 If you froze a few zillions gallons of water and stuck them on the North and 01:49:32.030 --> 01:49:33.750 South Pole, that's going to lower the ocean level. 01:49:34.970 --> 01:49:37.810 This map shows England would not be an island if the water was a little bit 01:49:37.810 --> 01:49:38.030 lower. 01:49:38.830 --> 01:49:41.270 You know, the deepest point of the English Channel is 150 feet. 01:49:42.990 --> 01:49:44.390 That's twice the width of this room. 01:49:44.830 --> 01:49:45.750 That's the deepest point. 01:49:47.390 --> 01:49:49.230 30 miles wide, 150 feet deep. 01:49:49.330 --> 01:49:50.570 Do that on a graph paper to scale. 01:49:50.890 --> 01:49:51.590 It's a straight line. 01:49:54.450 --> 01:49:59.950 You could actually walk out to Ireland and to Iceland right after the flood. 01:50:00.950 --> 01:50:04.350 You can see on this satellite view showing the sunset coming into England, 01:50:04.810 --> 01:50:06.750 you can see the continental shelf. 01:50:07.190 --> 01:50:08.010 The water is not deep. 01:50:08.590 --> 01:50:11.350 As you fly into Pensacola, you can see the water is not very deep out there, 01:50:11.450 --> 01:50:12.770 folks, for quite a ways out. 01:50:13.810 --> 01:50:18.550 Between Alaska and Russia, the water is only like 60 feet deep, the width of this 01:50:18.550 --> 01:50:18.750 room. 01:50:19.450 --> 01:50:22.130 All you'd have to do is lower the water just a little bit and everything's 01:50:22.130 --> 01:50:22.530 connected. 01:50:23.350 --> 01:50:26.890 So I think right after the flood, the oceans were smaller because the 01:50:26.890 --> 01:50:27.610 continents were bigger. 01:50:28.290 --> 01:50:31.130 Because the water was trapped in the form of ice at the North and South Pole. 01:50:31.630 --> 01:50:34.770 If the oceans were just 10 percent deeper, this would be the beach right here. 01:50:38.390 --> 01:50:41.470 The world is basically pretty smooth, pretty flat. 01:50:41.550 --> 01:50:44.490 When I flew into Galveston, Texas, you get off at the airport and say, 01:50:44.570 --> 01:50:46.330 welcome to Galveston, elevation seven. 01:50:48.210 --> 01:50:51.790 I thought, man, one good wave and we're underwater here, you know, seven feet 01:50:51.790 --> 01:50:52.550 above sea level. 01:50:53.070 --> 01:50:53.650 Not much. 01:50:54.630 --> 01:50:56.930 Florida used to be gigantic after the flood. 01:50:57.210 --> 01:50:59.550 Probably the continental shelf is where the beach used to be. 01:50:59.610 --> 01:51:02.390 You could actually walk to Cuba, jump over the creek. 01:51:02.970 --> 01:51:06.950 It could be the Gulf of Mexico filled in a few hundred years after the flood and 01:51:06.950 --> 01:51:09.390 water came pouring in as the Atlantic filled up. 01:51:09.590 --> 01:51:12.550 It would pour in and fill in the Gulf of Mexico, carving out the grooves around 01:51:12.550 --> 01:51:12.810 Cuba. 01:51:13.310 --> 01:51:14.790 That could have happened after the flood. 01:51:16.150 --> 01:51:17.790 To me, it's a logical explanation. 01:51:18.150 --> 01:51:21.150 Mobile Bay, Pensacola Bay, generally less than seven feet deep. 01:51:22.790 --> 01:51:25.930 Sometimes when hurricanes come and the air is swirling the right way, it'll dry up 01:51:25.930 --> 01:51:26.390 both bays. 01:51:26.590 --> 01:51:27.550 The water sucks right out. 01:51:28.670 --> 01:51:32.690 Between Australia and Vietnam, the water is only 30, 40, 50 feet deep. 01:51:34.350 --> 01:51:35.110 Not much. 01:51:36.510 --> 01:51:40.150 So if you lowered the ocean level by freezing, you know, larger ice caps, 01:51:40.230 --> 01:51:42.670 you're going to get huge continental shelves connecting everything. 01:51:43.110 --> 01:51:47.530 So kangaroos, wombats, koalas, all these less aggressive animals getting 01:51:47.530 --> 01:51:52.010 off the arc, they're less aggressive and they would tend to rather run than fight. 01:51:52.850 --> 01:51:55.950 So as they move out, they settle in, make a house, you know, and then the tiger 01:51:55.950 --> 01:51:56.410 moves in. 01:51:57.250 --> 01:51:58.470 Kangaroo says, we're moving, guys. 01:51:58.570 --> 01:51:59.450 We're not going to stay by the tiger. 01:52:00.250 --> 01:52:03.830 And so they would tend to continually be at the front edge, at the fringe of the 01:52:03.830 --> 01:52:04.650 migration wave. 01:52:04.790 --> 01:52:07.890 It'll probably take a few hundred years, you know, for animals to spread out around 01:52:07.890 --> 01:52:08.230 the world. 01:52:08.650 --> 01:52:11.530 And they would continually give up their territory to the more aggressive animals. 01:52:11.870 --> 01:52:14.930 And when they get to Australia, they run out of places to go. 01:52:15.430 --> 01:52:18.130 But by now the water's coming up and pretty soon Australia is isolated. 01:52:19.230 --> 01:52:22.790 So the reason we find kangaroos in Australia is because they were at the 01:52:22.790 --> 01:52:26.850 leading edge of the migration wave, running from the predators, and then they 01:52:26.850 --> 01:52:28.090 got trapped with no enemies. 01:52:28.950 --> 01:52:31.030 Hey, big island, it's all to ourselves, guys. 01:52:31.370 --> 01:52:32.550 Let's go have some kids and grandkids. 01:52:33.290 --> 01:52:35.030 And then they're covered up, you know, kangaroos over there. 01:52:35.670 --> 01:52:37.570 So it's not because that's where they evolved. 01:52:37.670 --> 01:52:39.350 It's because the flood's a good explanation for that. 01:52:39.850 --> 01:52:43.090 Kangaroo fossils are found other places, but they didn't survive in those regions. 01:52:43.170 --> 01:52:43.870 They had too many predators. 01:52:44.650 --> 01:52:46.270 So why do we have a continental shelf? 01:52:46.890 --> 01:52:51.470 I think the ice caps melting back explains the continental shelf, explains why the 01:52:51.470 --> 01:52:56.550 oceans are wider and deeper and colder from the ice melting back, absorbing the 01:52:56.550 --> 01:52:58.130 carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. 01:52:58.630 --> 01:53:02.870 Next session, we'll finish up a little bit more on the Hovind theory and then tell 01:53:02.870 --> 01:53:04.130 you the importance of all this. 01:53:04.610 --> 01:53:08.150 This flood is powerful evidence of God's judgment on sin. 01:53:09.030 --> 01:53:13.630 And if you've not trusted Christ as your Savior, you're going to be judged in front 01:53:13.630 --> 01:53:14.410 of God for yourself. 01:53:14.490 --> 01:53:19.330 What you've done in your flesh and in your body, you'll be judged without Christ. 01:53:19.510 --> 01:53:20.330 Man, I wouldn't want that. 01:53:20.890 --> 01:53:23.330 I'm going to stand there with Christ's righteousness on me. 01:53:24.330 --> 01:53:27.150 Say, Lord, you better let me into heaven because Jesus forgave my sin. 01:53:27.910 --> 01:53:29.470 Cover more on that in the next session. 01:53:34.050 --> 01:53:37.470 Well, welcome to our final section of seminar part six on the Hovind theory of 01:53:37.470 --> 01:53:39.470 what caused the flood in the days of Noah. 01:53:39.550 --> 01:53:40.710 And where'd all the water go? 01:53:41.390 --> 01:53:43.030 And why did God flood the world? 01:53:43.370 --> 01:53:47.590 If you look at this map here, you can see Minneapolis is about 600 feet higher than 01:53:47.590 --> 01:53:49.570 New Orleans in elevation, 670 feet higher. 01:53:50.270 --> 01:53:52.850 But Minneapolis is a long ways from New Orleans. 01:53:53.550 --> 01:53:57.790 Actually, it's 1,150 miles from Minneapolis to New Orleans, which means 01:53:57.790 --> 01:54:02.150 the Mississippi River, it starts near Minneapolis, has to flow 1,150 miles, 01:54:02.190 --> 01:54:04.210 but only drops 670 feet. 01:54:04.790 --> 01:54:05.790 You can calculate that out. 01:54:05.870 --> 01:54:08.390 That's a drop of about seven inches per mile. 01:54:08.890 --> 01:54:11.670 It has to run a full mile to drop that far. 01:54:12.310 --> 01:54:15.110 The Mississippi River is what's called a low gradient stream. 01:54:15.530 --> 01:54:17.750 It's just barely on sloped ground. 01:54:18.610 --> 01:54:22.510 Now, if you built a dam across Grand Canyon, a huge lake would fill in behind 01:54:22.510 --> 01:54:22.670 it. 01:54:23.490 --> 01:54:27.110 If you built a dam across, you know, the lower United States, you'd cover a 01:54:27.110 --> 01:54:27.990 whole chunk of America. 01:54:28.510 --> 01:54:29.850 All the Great Plains would be covered. 01:54:30.170 --> 01:54:34.710 But a large dam across Grand Canyon would fill in a huge lake, and Grand Canyon had 01:54:34.710 --> 01:54:36.210 to form quickly, as we can see from the evidence. 01:54:36.490 --> 01:54:39.950 The textbooks tell us Colorado River, over millions of years, formed the Grand 01:54:39.950 --> 01:54:40.250 Canyon. 01:54:40.250 --> 01:54:41.770 That is simply not true. 01:54:41.890 --> 01:54:45.570 We cover this in great detail on videotape number four of our series. 01:54:45.950 --> 01:54:48.290 Grand Canyon could not have been formed by the Colorado River. 01:54:48.570 --> 01:54:51.230 The top of Grand Canyon is higher than both ends. 01:54:51.950 --> 01:54:54.550 The river enters the canyon at 3,200 feet elevation. 01:54:54.930 --> 01:54:57.610 The top of the canyon is about 7,000 or 8,000 feet elevation. 01:54:57.810 --> 01:54:59.050 Rivers don't flow uphill. 01:54:59.730 --> 01:55:01.650 That canyon was not formed by that river. 01:55:01.930 --> 01:55:05.190 That river just flows through that canyon, and canyons all over the world are like 01:55:05.190 --> 01:55:05.390 that. 01:55:05.890 --> 01:55:09.090 Grand Canyon is kind of puzzling because it loops back and forth, but it also has 01:55:09.090 --> 01:55:09.790 steep sides. 01:55:10.250 --> 01:55:13.930 Now a looping river, meandering they call it, is typical of a low gradient stream. 01:55:14.050 --> 01:55:16.030 It's just not moving very fast normally. 01:55:17.150 --> 01:55:20.510 Steep sides indicates a high gradient stream like the Columbia River Gorge in 01:55:20.510 --> 01:55:24.790 Oregon, and between Oregon and Washington, where the river is flowing real fast down 01:55:24.790 --> 01:55:26.990 real steep ground, and it cuts a big deep gorge. 01:55:27.670 --> 01:55:30.590 Grand Canyon has both steep sides and loops or meanders. 01:55:31.250 --> 01:55:34.290 One explanation of this is the river didn't do it. 01:55:34.570 --> 01:55:40.690 Flood water did that as it was rushing through after Noah got off the ark. 01:55:41.050 --> 01:55:43.510 One catastrophe can rearrange the real estate in a hurry. 01:55:44.170 --> 01:55:48.970 When I preached up in Alaska, I went to see the Chernigan Arms, I think they call 01:55:48.970 --> 01:55:53.130 it, where the big Alaskan earthquake dropped the ground down 30 to 60 feet just 01:55:53.130 --> 01:55:53.910 in a few seconds. 01:55:56.250 --> 01:56:01.490 The point is disasters can rapidly change the real estate, and Noah's flood was 01:56:01.490 --> 01:56:02.250 quite the disaster. 01:56:02.830 --> 01:56:04.970 Mount St. Helens was an example of a small disaster. 01:56:05.270 --> 01:56:06.470 My sister lives right near there. 01:56:06.470 --> 01:56:08.230 I just flew over Mount St. Helens yesterday. 01:56:09.290 --> 01:56:10.910 Mount St. Helens went into eruption in 1980. 01:56:11.570 --> 01:56:14.490 The mud started blowing out the top, but right away the north slope blew out, 01:56:14.550 --> 01:56:18.210 and all this dirt and mud and ash went sliding down the countryside about a 01:56:18.210 --> 01:56:19.030 hundred miles an hour. 01:56:19.470 --> 01:56:23.010 As the mud went sliding down and the dirt went sliding down, it melted the ice caps 01:56:23.010 --> 01:56:23.390 on top. 01:56:23.510 --> 01:56:27.390 Some of it blew big chunks of ice off in other places, but this released the 01:56:27.390 --> 01:56:31.510 volcano and steam and ash came shooting out, and it covered huge areas of 01:56:31.510 --> 01:56:33.170 Washington state from this ash. 01:56:33.490 --> 01:56:36.250 You can see the clouds here in these pictures as it's flying out over the 01:56:36.250 --> 01:56:36.650 countryside. 01:56:37.610 --> 01:56:40.570 People were killed, about 60 people killed by this little, which was considered a 01:56:40.570 --> 01:56:41.230 small volcano. 01:56:41.570 --> 01:56:42.990 Here's a car covered up in ash. 01:56:43.410 --> 01:56:47.990 It was buried by this really boiling hot ash cloud as it came over. 01:56:48.670 --> 01:56:50.490 They found people all over dead in there. 01:56:50.550 --> 01:56:51.470 60 some people died. 01:56:51.690 --> 01:56:54.870 You can see in the photograph here how the ash went all the way out to cover part of 01:56:54.870 --> 01:56:57.690 South Dakota with ash from Mount St. Helens. 01:56:58.010 --> 01:57:02.250 Most of it concentrated over toward Spokane, but Mount St. Helens is 01:57:02.250 --> 01:57:04.490 considered a tiny volcano by volcano standards. 01:57:05.190 --> 01:57:07.550 Compared to Krakatoa, Mount St. Helens was nothing. 01:57:08.010 --> 01:57:10.270 But even still, Mount St. Helens taught us some amazing lessons. 01:57:10.730 --> 01:57:14.030 For instance, the mud that flowed down sorted things into layers automatically. 01:57:14.570 --> 01:57:18.550 As this hot mud went flying down the countryside, it covered up and blocked off 01:57:18.550 --> 01:57:19.390 the Toutle River Valley. 01:57:20.370 --> 01:57:23.230 You can see in these pictures here the mud flows that flowed down. 01:57:23.330 --> 01:57:27.530 Here's a semi covered up with mud, got caught in the mud flow from Mount St. 01:57:27.550 --> 01:57:27.690 Helens. 01:57:27.710 --> 01:57:29.830 This was hot mud coming out of there. 01:57:30.410 --> 01:57:33.870 Mount St. Helens blew enough material out for everyone on earth to have a ton. 01:57:34.910 --> 01:57:39.250 It would fill a 10 cubic yard dump truck every second 24 hours a day for 600 years. 01:57:43.070 --> 01:57:46.190 Lloyd Anderson lives up near there and has a creation ministry speaking on creation. 01:57:46.330 --> 01:57:48.030 Takes people on tours of the Mount St. Helens area. 01:57:48.150 --> 01:57:50.870 If you ever get up to Washington, be sure to look up Lloyd Anderson or see 01:57:50.870 --> 01:57:53.110 creationism.org. 01:57:53.150 --> 01:57:55.790 It's not his website, but there's a lot of stuff on Mount St. Helens on that website. 01:57:56.410 --> 01:57:58.890 This mud flowed down into the valley, blocked off the river. 01:57:59.650 --> 01:58:03.510 It also covered up hot big chunks of ice that had been blown off the volcano. 01:58:03.710 --> 01:58:08.930 Chunks of ice as big as a living room were blown off the volcano and landed and hot 01:58:08.930 --> 01:58:09.770 mud went over the top. 01:58:10.390 --> 01:58:15.190 Well, a few days later, the hot mud on the cold ice made the ice melt, turned to 01:58:15.190 --> 01:58:15.450 steam. 01:58:15.570 --> 01:58:19.910 Steam expanded 1,700 times and blew out steam erosion pits. 01:58:20.430 --> 01:58:23.990 Here you can see the steam erosion pits with erosion marks along the side. 01:58:24.710 --> 01:58:27.250 Some professor is going to bring his kids here 100 years from now and say, 01:58:27.310 --> 01:58:29.330 boys and girls, this erosion took millions of years. 01:58:30.110 --> 01:58:32.090 No teacher, this took about 15 seconds. 01:58:32.750 --> 01:58:37.730 The big river system that formed about a year later after Mount St. Helens blew is 01:58:37.730 --> 01:58:38.390 talked about right here. 01:58:38.470 --> 01:58:42.830 It says, the landslide of May 18th buried the river and highway to Spirit Lake to an 01:58:42.830 --> 01:58:44.050 average depth of 100 feet. 01:58:44.570 --> 01:58:48.910 It also buried most other drainages in the 23 square miles of the upper Toutle Valley 01:58:48.910 --> 01:58:50.450 and plugged the valley's mouth. 01:58:50.830 --> 01:58:56.310 For 22 months, the water had no established path to the lower waterway. 01:58:56.910 --> 01:59:01.470 Then on March 19th, 1982, an eruption melted an ice pack that had accumulated in 01:59:01.470 --> 01:59:01.790 the crater. 01:59:02.390 --> 01:59:05.350 The waters mixed with loose material on the slopes of the mountains, creating an 01:59:05.350 --> 01:59:06.250 enormous mudflow. 01:59:08.110 --> 01:59:12.090 In nine hours, while no one watched overnight, the mudflow carved an 01:59:12.090 --> 01:59:16.350 integrated system of drainages over much of the valley and reopened the way to the 01:59:16.350 --> 01:59:16.630 Pacific. 01:59:17.110 --> 01:59:19.970 The drainages included at least three canyons 100 feet deep. 01:59:20.510 --> 01:59:24.530 One was nicknamed the Little Grand Canyon of the Toutle because it's a 140th scale 01:59:24.530 --> 01:59:26.570 model of the real Grand Canyon. 01:59:27.510 --> 01:59:31.410 See, the mud flowed across, stopped the river from flowing, lakes backed up behind 01:59:31.410 --> 01:59:31.570 it. 01:59:31.610 --> 01:59:35.190 Once they got going over the top, it cut through the relatively soft mud, 01:59:35.250 --> 01:59:38.630 just 22 months old, hadn't completely turned to stone yet, cut through that 01:59:38.630 --> 01:59:40.110 stuff like knife through butter. 01:59:41.030 --> 01:59:42.090 It carved it out. 01:59:42.610 --> 01:59:43.470 Canyons eroded quickly. 01:59:43.570 --> 01:59:46.990 Here you can see a picture of the canyon, a thousand feet wide, 140 feet deep, 01:59:47.350 --> 01:59:49.710 carved in nine hours, probably less than nine hours. 01:59:49.930 --> 01:59:51.830 You know, you go to bed at night, you wake up in the morning, it's there. 01:59:52.190 --> 01:59:55.110 At the bottom of that canyon is a little tiny river flowing through there called 01:59:55.110 --> 01:59:55.830 the Toutle River. 01:59:56.450 --> 01:59:58.410 I would call it a creek, but they call it a river over there. 01:59:59.030 --> 02:00:03.330 Once water starts going over a dam, erosion can take place very quickly. 02:00:03.870 --> 02:00:04.810 Any farmer can tell you that. 02:00:04.850 --> 02:00:08.310 If he's ever built a dam to water his cows and the water went over the top of the, 02:00:08.370 --> 02:00:10.450 you know, overflowed the dam, it washed out. 02:00:10.690 --> 02:00:14.710 We have a demo we do at our Dinosaur Adventure Land that shows the same thing, 02:00:14.790 --> 02:00:16.210 how water can erode quickly. 02:00:16.850 --> 02:00:21.130 This is the Little Grand Canyon picture here from Lumpkin, Georgia, near Columbus. 02:00:22.050 --> 02:00:25.630 They built a house up there, built a shed I think is how it started, and the guy 02:00:25.630 --> 02:00:28.330 didn't put gutters on and water came running off the shed and started eroding 02:00:28.330 --> 02:00:30.410 this little hillside back in the 1800s. 02:00:31.110 --> 02:00:36.550 Now it's a huge state park with acres and acres and acres of erosion that all 02:00:36.550 --> 02:00:38.190 started just in the last 200 years. 02:00:39.090 --> 02:00:40.510 Well, Mount St. Helens says the same thing. 02:00:40.570 --> 02:00:44.750 There are canyons there, miniature Grand Canyons that formed just in a few hours. 02:00:45.650 --> 02:00:48.610 Here's some people standing on top of the cliff looking down into this canyon. 02:00:48.930 --> 02:00:51.170 If you go down in you can see the sides of it have layers. 02:00:51.410 --> 02:00:52.690 It's stratified into layers. 02:00:53.690 --> 02:00:55.330 This had to form very quickly. 02:00:56.290 --> 02:00:59.730 All the mud washed in there one time, the canyon was carved out at one time. 02:01:00.130 --> 02:01:02.190 Does not take a long time for this to happen. 02:01:02.550 --> 02:01:04.990 Here you can see the very fine strata here of these layers. 02:01:05.290 --> 02:01:07.690 You can get the same thing with a jar of dirt and water. 02:01:07.930 --> 02:01:11.590 You shake it up and set it down and it settles into layers in a hurry. 02:01:11.650 --> 02:01:12.610 It doesn't take long. 02:01:13.390 --> 02:01:17.570 And at the bottom of this Grand Canyon where the Toutle River goes, there's a 02:01:17.570 --> 02:01:18.810 little river called the Toutle River. 02:01:19.670 --> 02:01:21.790 And if you think that little river made that canyon, you're mistaken. 02:01:22.470 --> 02:01:25.750 And if you think the Colorado River made Grand Canyon, you're just as mistaken. 02:01:26.230 --> 02:01:29.150 It had to form quickly as the flood water ran off. 02:01:29.210 --> 02:01:32.630 So when the textbook says millions of years, they're confused or they're lying. 02:01:33.430 --> 02:01:35.350 Now Mount St. Helens also blew a lot of trees down. 02:01:36.190 --> 02:01:38.930 About 150 square miles was flattened. 02:01:38.990 --> 02:01:40.810 I mean millions of trees were blown down. 02:01:41.370 --> 02:01:43.950 And they went in to haul out these trees to salvage what they could. 02:01:44.810 --> 02:01:45.890 Trees floated down the rivers. 02:01:45.950 --> 02:01:49.390 Here you can see some semi-trucks buried in these massive logs out there. 02:01:49.490 --> 02:01:52.210 And if you've never seen the trees in Washington and Oregon, you don't know what 02:01:52.210 --> 02:01:52.990 a real tree is. 02:01:53.070 --> 02:01:55.010 I mean they get huge out there out west. 02:01:55.510 --> 02:01:57.110 They hauled out as many trees as they could. 02:01:57.230 --> 02:02:00.310 I mean millions of trees were hauled out to use for firewood and for lumber. 02:02:00.890 --> 02:02:04.310 But many of the trees were blown into Spirit Lake, which is just on the north 02:02:04.310 --> 02:02:04.930 side of the volcano. 02:02:05.350 --> 02:02:08.230 These trees, you can see them in the picture, are floating across the lake. 02:02:08.510 --> 02:02:09.750 2,000 acres. 02:02:10.910 --> 02:02:13.930 About three square miles of trees floating on Spirit Lake. 02:02:14.170 --> 02:02:15.010 They're still there today. 02:02:16.110 --> 02:02:16.690 Many of them. 02:02:16.930 --> 02:02:19.510 Now thousands of them have gotten waterlogged and sunk to the bottom. 02:02:20.570 --> 02:02:22.890 But generally they would sink root end first. 02:02:23.050 --> 02:02:24.790 Not always, but they would sink root end first. 02:02:24.850 --> 02:02:25.910 And they would sink by species. 02:02:26.310 --> 02:02:28.230 I mean the Douglas fir would sink one year. 02:02:28.630 --> 02:02:29.870 The pines would sink a different year. 02:02:30.830 --> 02:02:35.690 The species separation was interesting because as they sink, then new layers of 02:02:35.690 --> 02:02:36.730 mud wash in on top. 02:02:37.350 --> 02:02:39.610 And it's going to look like the forest grew down there at the bottom. 02:02:39.870 --> 02:02:40.550 None of them grew there. 02:02:41.170 --> 02:02:44.530 These were rafted in and dropped off as they got waterlogged and sank. 02:02:44.870 --> 02:02:47.490 Here you can see an upright floater floating in the upright position. 02:02:47.870 --> 02:02:51.370 Scientists estimate there are 20,000 trees stuck in the bottom of the mud at Spirit 02:02:51.370 --> 02:02:52.090 Lake right now. 02:02:52.450 --> 02:02:53.350 None of them grew there. 02:02:53.590 --> 02:02:58.270 And they're already over 15 feet deep in sediments from subsequent things washing 02:02:58.270 --> 02:02:59.570 in around off the shore. 02:03:00.450 --> 02:03:03.490 Well during Noah's flood, you would get trees by the bazillions covered up. 02:03:03.590 --> 02:03:04.770 Some in the standing position. 02:03:05.650 --> 02:03:08.130 And it would get sediments forming around them very rapidly. 02:03:08.550 --> 02:03:11.430 All over the world, petrified trees are found in the vertical position, 02:03:11.570 --> 02:03:12.870 petrified standing up. 02:03:13.050 --> 02:03:16.690 We cover much more on that on video tape number four, about the petrified trees in 02:03:16.690 --> 02:03:17.670 the vertical position. 02:03:20.370 --> 02:03:24.170 And if a tree petrifies standing up and then later the dirt washes away from it, 02:03:24.210 --> 02:03:27.770 the petrified tree is going to fall over and it's going to break up into logs. 02:03:28.550 --> 02:03:31.130 I don't know if you ever cut a tree down for firewood or not, but when you cut a 02:03:31.130 --> 02:03:33.390 tree down, it does not break up into logs for you automatically. 02:03:34.330 --> 02:03:35.970 You got to saw it up with your chainsaw. 02:03:36.490 --> 02:03:40.210 Well yet, if you look at the petrified forests in Calistoga, California or Flora, 02:03:40.310 --> 02:03:45.690 Mississippi or all over Arizona or central Texas, you find these petrified logs 02:03:45.690 --> 02:03:49.450 broken up as if it petrified standing and then fell over. 02:03:49.770 --> 02:03:51.270 I think the flood's the only way to explain that. 02:03:51.690 --> 02:03:55.370 Well scuba divers went in under these log mats in Mount St. Helens in Spirit Lake 02:03:55.370 --> 02:03:58.450 and they could see the logs are bouncing back and forth against each other and it 02:03:58.450 --> 02:03:59.910 rolled all the bark off very quickly. 02:04:00.570 --> 02:04:03.470 All this bark settled to the bottom, made a thick layer of bark at the bottom, 02:04:03.610 --> 02:04:04.550 about three feet thick. 02:04:05.110 --> 02:04:07.530 That's going to turn to coal under the right conditions. 02:04:08.750 --> 02:04:10.750 Textbooks say it takes millions of years to coal to form. 02:04:10.850 --> 02:04:11.650 No, it doesn't either. 02:04:11.770 --> 02:04:13.750 Coal can be formed in a few hours in the laboratory. 02:04:13.930 --> 02:04:14.850 It doesn't take long. 02:04:15.250 --> 02:04:17.530 You get the right temperature, the right pressure, you can turn organic 02:04:17.530 --> 02:04:19.730 material into coal in a hurry. 02:04:21.610 --> 02:04:25.610 This picture shows a floating log mat model from Stephen Austin at ICR. 02:04:25.910 --> 02:04:27.170 I recommend his work tremendously. 02:04:28.350 --> 02:04:30.950 Incredibly well done stuff on the coal formation. 02:04:31.590 --> 02:04:34.510 He thinks during the flood, and I agree, there were huge log mats floating back and 02:04:34.510 --> 02:04:35.370 forth across the ocean. 02:04:35.970 --> 02:04:40.510 You'd get acres and acres of trees uprooted floating back and forth and as 02:04:40.510 --> 02:04:42.830 they float along they drop off and leave a debris trail. 02:04:43.510 --> 02:04:47.230 As they float across then pretty soon mud washes in then they float back a few weeks 02:04:47.230 --> 02:04:49.690 later and another layer of coal is going to form on top. 02:04:49.690 --> 02:04:53.890 The layers of coal that we see in the world are indication of a flood. 02:04:54.670 --> 02:04:58.270 Oftentimes they dig down, hit a layer of coal, dig down some more, hit rock, 02:04:58.350 --> 02:04:59.510 and then dig down some more, hit more coal. 02:04:59.850 --> 02:05:03.090 I was just in West Virginia a couple weeks ago and you can fly over West Virginia and 02:05:03.090 --> 02:05:04.670 see the coal mines that they have. 02:05:05.050 --> 02:05:06.330 Layer after layer of coal. 02:05:06.810 --> 02:05:10.110 They dig down, hit the coal, dig down a little more, hit dirt, and then more coal. 02:05:10.610 --> 02:05:13.030 Multiple layering is best explained by the flood. 02:05:13.610 --> 02:05:17.890 Now I debated Jeannie Scott from Berserkly, California and she said there 02:05:17.890 --> 02:05:19.450 are 80 separate layers of coal in the Midwest. 02:05:20.110 --> 02:05:20.490 She's right. 02:05:21.330 --> 02:05:25.550 She said if you look at all the coal in the world, all the plants of the world 02:05:25.550 --> 02:05:27.730 today would not form that much fossil fuel. 02:05:28.470 --> 02:05:28.910 She's right. 02:05:29.290 --> 02:05:33.110 In other words, there's more coal in the ground now than there are trees to produce 02:05:33.110 --> 02:05:33.230 it. 02:05:33.250 --> 02:05:34.650 Here's a big chunk of coal from our museum. 02:05:35.050 --> 02:05:40.410 There is so much coal in the ground, if you took every bush and plant and tree 02:05:40.410 --> 02:05:44.330 and blade of grass in the world, you could not form all the coal that's 02:05:44.330 --> 02:05:44.950 found in the ground. 02:05:44.950 --> 02:05:45.910 She's right. 02:05:46.590 --> 02:05:48.390 There's an enormous amount of coal down there. 02:05:48.970 --> 02:05:49.650 Where'd it come from? 02:05:50.230 --> 02:05:52.750 She said it took millions of years to form all this coal. 02:05:52.970 --> 02:05:53.450 No, Jeannie. 02:05:54.030 --> 02:05:55.190 It took a big flood. 02:05:55.530 --> 02:05:58.550 And you got to consider that the world before the flood was different. 02:05:58.670 --> 02:06:01.630 It was mostly covered with land and plants. 02:06:02.350 --> 02:06:04.290 The Bible says there were plants over the whole earth. 02:06:04.750 --> 02:06:06.530 Today the earth is 70% underwater. 02:06:07.530 --> 02:06:09.690 Only 3% of the earth is habitable for mankind. 02:06:10.570 --> 02:06:14.050 So she's looking at the world today, assuming that's how it's always been. 02:06:14.090 --> 02:06:16.150 Now the Bible warned us about those scoffers that would say, you know, 02:06:16.210 --> 02:06:18.190 the way things are happening today is the way they've always been. 02:06:18.230 --> 02:06:19.150 2 Peter chapter 3. 02:06:19.710 --> 02:06:21.990 But she's wrong about it taking millions of years to form the coal. 02:06:22.070 --> 02:06:24.550 It took one big flood in a very different world to get flooded. 02:06:24.870 --> 02:06:26.230 The pre-flood world was a lot different. 02:06:26.590 --> 02:06:27.710 There's a coal mine in Montana. 02:06:28.070 --> 02:06:30.550 10,000 square miles of coal up to 200 feet thick. 02:06:31.530 --> 02:06:34.510 Sometimes in the ceiling of the coal mines they find dinosaur tracks. 02:06:35.590 --> 02:06:36.430 Hundreds of them. 02:06:37.790 --> 02:06:38.850 How do you explain this? 02:06:39.590 --> 02:06:43.570 Well, during the flood you'd get log mats laid down and the dinosaurs are walking on 02:06:43.570 --> 02:06:44.030 top of it. 02:06:45.650 --> 02:06:46.530 And then later they drown. 02:06:46.650 --> 02:06:48.770 Another layer of mud washes in and fills in their footprints. 02:06:49.750 --> 02:06:52.350 And as they dig out the coal they discover the footprints stuck in the ceiling. 02:06:52.470 --> 02:06:57.850 They were walking around floating in the debris trail left behind by this stuff. 02:06:58.230 --> 02:06:59.070 Here's a bunch of tracks. 02:06:59.170 --> 02:06:59.890 You can see the picture here. 02:07:00.130 --> 02:07:02.710 These are all footprints in the ceiling of coal mines. 02:07:03.510 --> 02:07:05.450 In central Alabama there's a large coal mine. 02:07:05.890 --> 02:07:07.550 They find petrified trees standing up. 02:07:08.050 --> 02:07:09.270 A friend of mine works up there in the mine. 02:07:09.630 --> 02:07:11.850 He said oftentimes they find layers of coal that are separated. 02:07:12.010 --> 02:07:12.890 Pretty soon they come together. 02:07:12.970 --> 02:07:13.670 It's called lensing. 02:07:14.290 --> 02:07:17.390 Now they're telling us that these coal layers are different ages. 02:07:17.550 --> 02:07:18.990 It's just simply not true. 02:07:19.550 --> 02:07:22.170 The coal layers and the mud layers all form simultaneously. 02:07:22.510 --> 02:07:25.630 Just like with this thing, you can flip it around back and forth and you can see 02:07:25.630 --> 02:07:26.850 little lenses form in here. 02:07:27.610 --> 02:07:31.210 Sometimes they are layers of rock, layers of dark, in between layers of 02:07:31.210 --> 02:07:32.370 white, and the white comes together. 02:07:33.790 --> 02:07:36.650 The formations in Wyoming. 02:07:37.330 --> 02:07:40.310 Oftentimes the textbooks say it took millions of years to form the Green River 02:07:40.310 --> 02:07:40.850 Formation. 02:07:41.390 --> 02:07:44.750 When they dig down through the Green River Formation, they find different numbers of 02:07:44.750 --> 02:07:45.830 layers between different areas. 02:07:46.330 --> 02:07:47.870 We cover all that in video number seven. 02:07:47.930 --> 02:07:49.590 It did not take a long time to form that. 02:07:49.630 --> 02:07:50.330 It took a big flood. 02:07:50.870 --> 02:07:54.770 Sometimes in coal human artifacts are found, like this bell found inside a lump 02:07:54.770 --> 02:07:56.970 of coal in West Virginia. 02:07:57.270 --> 02:08:00.170 Or this zinc and silver vessel found in solid rock in Massachusetts. 02:08:00.910 --> 02:08:03.270 Textbook says this is, you know, 600 million year old rock. 02:08:03.350 --> 02:08:03.910 No it's not. 02:08:04.690 --> 02:08:08.830 In 1891 they found a gold chain inside a lump of coal back in Illinois. 02:08:09.890 --> 02:08:13.250 A carved stone was found inside a lump of coal in Iowa. 02:08:13.690 --> 02:08:14.550 Here is an iron pot. 02:08:14.590 --> 02:08:15.810 There is a model of it right here on the table. 02:08:16.470 --> 02:08:20.670 This is a casting of the iron pot found inside a lump of coal in Oklahoma. 02:08:20.890 --> 02:08:23.230 The real one is in Carl Baugh's museum in Glen Rose, Texas. 02:08:23.770 --> 02:08:26.030 The sole of a shoe was found inside a lump of coal. 02:08:26.590 --> 02:08:27.910 There is an article about it right here. 02:08:27.950 --> 02:08:30.470 They said the rock was 213 million years old. 02:08:31.210 --> 02:08:33.310 Now coal formed during that flood in the days of Noah. 02:08:33.610 --> 02:08:35.950 The Bible says in Genesis 8 the waters assuaged. 02:08:36.050 --> 02:08:36.950 They dropped down. 02:08:37.050 --> 02:08:37.710 They sank down. 02:08:38.030 --> 02:08:40.110 And then it says the water was going and returning. 02:08:40.250 --> 02:08:41.990 It returned from off the earth continually. 02:08:42.690 --> 02:08:45.790 The Hebrew phrase here in Genesis 8 is going and returning. 02:08:46.350 --> 02:08:48.570 The water was going and returning. 02:08:48.970 --> 02:08:52.330 Well if you get sections of the earth that sink down, the water is going to rush in 02:08:52.330 --> 02:08:56.930 and then slosh back and forth, probably for weeks as the energy gets 02:08:56.930 --> 02:08:57.390 dissipated. 02:08:57.750 --> 02:09:00.870 This is the best way to explain the horizontal bedding planes that we see. 02:09:01.250 --> 02:09:06.850 The mud layers settling out flat and then folding up as the mountains arose and the 02:09:06.850 --> 02:09:07.690 valleys sank down. 02:09:08.030 --> 02:09:10.170 And then getting washed off by subsequent erosion. 02:09:10.690 --> 02:09:12.110 And then new layers being put on top. 02:09:12.710 --> 02:09:15.190 These places are called unconformities in geology. 02:09:15.890 --> 02:09:17.570 The bottom of Grand Canyon has a huge one. 02:09:18.110 --> 02:09:19.990 I think the flood is the best explanation for all this. 02:09:20.370 --> 02:09:22.570 Not millions of years of slow gradual accumulation. 02:09:23.270 --> 02:09:25.350 The Bible says the ark rested in the 7th month. 02:09:26.510 --> 02:09:28.250 Now Noah didn't get out until the 13th month. 02:09:28.910 --> 02:09:32.590 If you read through Genesis you'll see God told him to go in the ark, told him when 02:09:32.590 --> 02:09:33.230 to go out of the ark. 02:09:33.350 --> 02:09:36.270 He was in there for over 12.5 months. 02:09:37.170 --> 02:09:38.570 But it rested in the 7th month. 02:09:39.690 --> 02:09:42.870 Why would he stand there the extra 5.5 months after the ark hit bottom? 02:09:44.430 --> 02:09:49.390 If Noah's ark is indeed 17 miles from the main Mount Ararat, then we have a piece of 02:09:49.390 --> 02:09:49.470 it. 02:09:49.770 --> 02:09:54.310 This may be a piece of the formation that Ron Wyatt thinks is Noah's ark. 02:09:54.450 --> 02:09:56.050 So that might be a piece of the ark, I don't know. 02:09:56.050 --> 02:09:59.310 But why would he stand there for all that extra time? 02:09:59.610 --> 02:10:00.650 Why not get out? 02:10:01.110 --> 02:10:04.830 Well for one reason, the ark water was still going back and forth. 02:10:04.910 --> 02:10:06.050 It wasn't safe to get out yet. 02:10:06.990 --> 02:10:09.770 Maybe that's why some of the anchor stones are found several miles from where the ark 02:10:09.770 --> 02:10:10.010 is. 02:10:10.190 --> 02:10:13.150 They might have cut the ropes loose and then another wave comes back lifts them up 02:10:13.150 --> 02:10:14.250 and moves them inland a few miles. 02:10:14.350 --> 02:10:15.090 Sets them down again. 02:10:16.070 --> 02:10:17.670 So that may be a reason for the separation there. 02:10:17.910 --> 02:10:21.130 Plus the ground is still muddy outside and there's nothing to eat outside and nothing 02:10:21.130 --> 02:10:21.750 to build with. 02:10:21.790 --> 02:10:23.270 It would take a while for things to grow again. 02:10:23.790 --> 02:10:26.670 Seeds that floated around in the flood would tend to re-germinate and start to 02:10:26.670 --> 02:10:30.710 grow afterwards and you end up five months later and now it's time to get out. 02:10:30.790 --> 02:10:31.530 There's stuff to eat outside. 02:10:31.890 --> 02:10:36.090 The Bible says in the 10th month the tops of the mountains were seen. 02:10:36.930 --> 02:10:37.790 So here's the Hovind theory. 02:10:38.310 --> 02:10:42.230 Over the next few years, 100 years actually, the ice caps slowly melted back. 02:10:43.270 --> 02:10:46.430 This makes the oceans larger, the continents smaller. 02:10:46.930 --> 02:10:50.290 It gives us a continental shelf and cold water stores carbon dioxide. 02:10:51.070 --> 02:10:52.050 Hot water won't store it. 02:10:52.090 --> 02:10:54.350 That's why when your soda pop gets warm, it loses its fizz. 02:10:54.810 --> 02:10:57.990 If the water oceans are getting colder, they're going to draw CO2 out of the 02:10:57.990 --> 02:11:00.150 atmosphere and that's what plants use. 02:11:00.430 --> 02:11:03.430 That's one of the greenhouse gases and that's going to allow more radiation to 02:11:03.430 --> 02:11:03.750 get in. 02:11:04.470 --> 02:11:10.470 As the CO2 is absorbed, now more radiation gets in and shortens lifespans in the days 02:11:10.470 --> 02:11:10.830 of Peleg. 02:11:11.730 --> 02:11:15.550 As the ice caps melt, the people are spreading out around the world and they 02:11:15.550 --> 02:11:16.390 end up getting trapped. 02:11:16.730 --> 02:11:20.750 You got a couple hundred years to spread from the Tower of Babel to spread all over 02:11:20.750 --> 02:11:21.050 the world. 02:11:21.150 --> 02:11:22.470 In a few hundred years, they could walk anywhere. 02:11:22.990 --> 02:11:26.950 And then they ended up getting trapped as the mountains, as the ice caps melted back 02:11:26.950 --> 02:11:28.050 and the oceans filled in. 02:11:28.510 --> 02:11:32.230 There's a good book about the spreading of the populations after the flood called 02:11:33.990 --> 02:11:35.630 Noah to Abram, the Turbulent Years. 02:11:35.690 --> 02:11:36.750 You can order that through our bookstore. 02:11:37.750 --> 02:11:41.190 So my explanation is, the Hovind theory is, the ice caps were smaller, 02:11:41.410 --> 02:11:44.130 they melted back, leaving behind the drumlins, the terminal moraines, 02:11:44.190 --> 02:11:46.410 and all the ice age effects that we see today. 02:11:46.410 --> 02:11:51.270 And by the time you get to the days of Peleg, 200 years later, most of this is 02:11:51.270 --> 02:11:51.550 done. 02:11:51.890 --> 02:11:53.950 People are divided, the earth is divided. 02:11:54.230 --> 02:11:56.230 The Bible says in the days of Peleg, the earth was divided. 02:11:56.350 --> 02:11:57.570 Now there are several theories of what that means. 02:11:58.130 --> 02:12:00.970 One theory says the languages and nations were divided in the days of Peleg. 02:12:01.110 --> 02:12:02.430 The Tower of Babel incident took place. 02:12:02.870 --> 02:12:06.170 We don't know the date for that because it was a different one of Noah's sons that 02:12:06.170 --> 02:12:07.190 the genealogies figured through. 02:12:07.590 --> 02:12:09.250 The second theory says the continents moved. 02:12:09.650 --> 02:12:13.790 I don't buy that one because if you move a continent 20 feet, you're going to kill 02:12:13.790 --> 02:12:16.230 everybody just from the earthquakes it's going to generate. 02:12:16.450 --> 02:12:18.750 Some people think the water came up and divided the continents. 02:12:19.170 --> 02:12:20.230 I think that's a logical theory. 02:12:20.670 --> 02:12:23.790 As the ice melts back, the water comes up and things that used to be hills and 02:12:23.790 --> 02:12:25.130 valleys are now islands. 02:12:26.770 --> 02:12:27.210 And they're separated. 02:12:27.330 --> 02:12:29.410 The third, fourth theory is the land was surveyed. 02:12:30.170 --> 02:12:32.950 A few hundred years after the flood that have so many people by now, they're going 02:12:32.950 --> 02:12:34.630 to start arguing and say, wait a minute, that's my property. 02:12:34.690 --> 02:12:35.570 Let's draw a line right here. 02:12:35.910 --> 02:12:39.470 Let's divide the land and we'll put a few markers out here and we know, well, 02:12:40.030 --> 02:12:42.130 this is my yard, that's your yard, divide it up. 02:12:42.210 --> 02:12:43.290 Eventually that's going to have to happen. 02:12:43.770 --> 02:12:47.930 I don't know, but the ice caps melting back explains a lot of things. 02:12:48.010 --> 02:12:51.510 The continental shelf, the colder oceans and the shortened lifespans. 02:12:52.130 --> 02:12:56.330 As the Atlantic ocean filled in after the flood from the ice caps melting back, 02:12:56.370 --> 02:12:57.070 it would get deeper. 02:12:57.430 --> 02:13:03.270 Pretty soon it starts to spill over right by Spain and it would carve out the 02:13:03.270 --> 02:13:05.290 straits that we see there. 02:13:05.490 --> 02:13:07.790 As the water filled in, it would fill in part of the Mediterranean. 02:13:07.950 --> 02:13:11.370 The Western Mediterranean was filled in probably a hundred years after the flood. 02:13:12.090 --> 02:13:15.810 Then it got deeper and it spilled over by Sicily and filled in the Eastern 02:13:15.810 --> 02:13:16.270 Mediterranean. 02:13:17.290 --> 02:13:21.550 They're finding underwater in along the coast of Egypt and several other places in 02:13:21.550 --> 02:13:21.770 the world. 02:13:21.830 --> 02:13:23.490 They're finding cities that are underwater. 02:13:24.050 --> 02:13:25.590 Why would somebody build a city underwater? 02:13:26.590 --> 02:13:27.750 Well, they didn't build it underwater. 02:13:28.290 --> 02:13:32.050 They built the city and then the water came up probably a few hundred years after 02:13:32.050 --> 02:13:33.850 the flood from the melting ice caps. 02:13:34.030 --> 02:13:36.350 Then it finally spilled backwards into the black sea. 02:13:37.310 --> 02:13:39.350 There's big articles in the paper, a couple years ago, about they've 02:13:39.350 --> 02:13:42.910 discovered Noah's flood because they found cities 150 feet underwater in the black 02:13:42.910 --> 02:13:43.210 sea. 02:13:43.870 --> 02:13:45.110 That's not Noah's flood. 02:13:45.750 --> 02:13:47.090 It's probably from a result of Noah's flood. 02:13:47.590 --> 02:13:52.650 But these cities under 150 feet of water are probably from post-flood times. 02:13:53.290 --> 02:13:54.390 They built too close to the beach. 02:13:54.870 --> 02:13:55.570 Water came in. 02:13:55.770 --> 02:13:56.810 They had to abandon their cities. 02:13:57.990 --> 02:14:01.910 So the flood effects are still here today to show us God hates sin. 02:14:02.430 --> 02:14:07.610 Every time you look at coal, oil, fossil rocks, even gasoline, it ought to 02:14:07.610 --> 02:14:10.070 remind you of God's judgment on sin. 02:14:10.390 --> 02:14:11.190 God hates sin. 02:14:11.570 --> 02:14:12.730 Let me leave you with one thought here. 02:14:13.370 --> 02:14:15.030 This is a picture of a guy named Harry Truman. 02:14:15.930 --> 02:14:18.130 Harry Truman lived right on the side of Mount St. Helens. 02:14:20.070 --> 02:14:22.990 A friend of mine, Tim Barons, I'm on every Wednesday morning on the Tim and Al Show 02:14:22.990 --> 02:14:24.030 in St. Louis by radio. 02:14:25.850 --> 02:14:27.110 Tim Barons witnessed to Harry. 02:14:27.410 --> 02:14:29.070 He said Harry was a very profane man. 02:14:29.370 --> 02:14:31.590 He listened carefully and rejected what I had to say. 02:14:31.630 --> 02:14:32.690 He didn't want to accept Jesus. 02:14:33.630 --> 02:14:35.550 Harry lived right on the side of Mount St. Helens. 02:14:36.570 --> 02:14:39.230 The government officials came in and said, Harry, this mountain is going to blow up. 02:14:39.310 --> 02:14:40.030 You need to move. 02:14:40.470 --> 02:14:41.650 He said, I'm staying right here. 02:14:42.270 --> 02:14:43.270 He stayed right there. 02:14:44.110 --> 02:14:45.650 He's still there someplace. 02:14:45.790 --> 02:14:47.890 Nobody ever found him after the volcano blew up. 02:14:48.410 --> 02:14:50.490 Probably under 50 feet of ash right now. 02:14:51.090 --> 02:14:54.030 Isn't that dumb to hear, hey, your mountain's about to blow up. 02:14:54.050 --> 02:14:54.830 You really need to move. 02:14:55.530 --> 02:14:56.470 Get ready for it. 02:14:56.590 --> 02:14:58.090 And to not heed a warning like that. 02:14:58.970 --> 02:14:59.870 That's what Harry did. 02:15:00.830 --> 02:15:03.930 I don't know how many of you have had the warning, this world's going to be 02:15:03.930 --> 02:15:04.310 destroyed. 02:15:04.450 --> 02:15:05.070 God hates sin. 02:15:05.090 --> 02:15:06.050 He's going to judge sin. 02:15:07.090 --> 02:15:07.830 Get ready for it. 02:15:07.890 --> 02:15:08.470 Get saved. 02:15:09.090 --> 02:15:09.810 Get in Christ. 02:15:10.370 --> 02:15:11.790 That's the only safe way out. 02:15:12.410 --> 02:15:13.850 You've heard that and you haven't done it. 02:15:14.230 --> 02:15:14.910 Why not? 02:15:15.650 --> 02:15:17.670 The Bible says, He that hath the Son hath life. 02:15:17.770 --> 02:15:19.710 He that hath not the Son of God hath not life. 02:15:20.190 --> 02:15:22.550 Now, if you've not trusted Christ as your Savior, why not? 02:15:22.990 --> 02:15:26.030 The Bible says God's not willing that any should perish, 2 Peter chapter 3. 02:15:26.530 --> 02:15:28.150 He wants everybody to come to repentance. 02:15:28.650 --> 02:15:30.570 He cannot let you into heaven, though, with your sin. 02:15:31.590 --> 02:15:33.050 I'm not going to heaven because I'm good. 02:15:33.090 --> 02:15:34.510 I'm going to heaven because I'm forgiven. 02:15:35.310 --> 02:15:36.550 And you can have the same thing. 02:15:37.030 --> 02:15:39.550 If you've not trusted Christ as your Savior, you ought to. 02:15:40.010 --> 02:15:42.990 The Bible says in Matthew, as it was in the days of Noah, so shall the coming of 02:15:42.990 --> 02:15:43.690 the Son of Man be. 02:15:44.150 --> 02:15:46.870 For in the days that was before the flood, they were eating, drinking, marrying, 02:15:47.030 --> 02:15:51.330 and giving in marriage, until Noah entered into the ark, and knew not until the flood 02:15:51.330 --> 02:15:52.470 came and took them all away. 02:15:53.050 --> 02:15:55.230 So shall also the coming of the Son of Man be. 02:15:58.180 --> 02:16:00.920 The Bible says we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ. 02:16:01.940 --> 02:16:02.900 We're going to all stand there. 02:16:03.100 --> 02:16:03.680 We're going to be judged. 02:16:03.800 --> 02:16:06.820 And God's going to look at me and say, all I see is Jesus. 02:16:07.320 --> 02:16:07.840 Come on in. 02:16:09.600 --> 02:16:11.920 Because I've got Jesus' righteousness put onto my account. 02:16:12.820 --> 02:16:15.300 I'm not going to heaven because I'm good, and neither are you. 02:16:15.860 --> 02:16:18.040 If you've not trusted Christ as your Savior, why not? 02:16:18.520 --> 02:16:20.660 Why don't you ask Him to be your Savior now? 02:16:20.860 --> 02:16:21.480 It's so simple. 02:16:22.720 --> 02:16:25.180 Thirty-five years ago, a friend of mine said, Kent, are you going to heaven? 02:16:26.320 --> 02:16:27.380 I said, I don't know. 02:16:27.920 --> 02:16:30.700 I've been baptized, and catechized, and pasteurized, and homogenized, 02:16:30.760 --> 02:16:31.300 and Simonized. 02:16:31.400 --> 02:16:32.140 What else is there? 02:16:33.120 --> 02:16:34.740 He said, if you died today, where would you go? 02:16:36.360 --> 02:16:37.240 I said, I'd go to hell. 02:16:38.920 --> 02:16:40.700 He said, is that what you want? 02:16:40.760 --> 02:16:42.800 I said, no, but I don't know what to do about it. 02:16:43.160 --> 02:16:44.700 He showed me from the Bible I was a sinner. 02:16:45.240 --> 02:16:45.820 I knew that. 02:16:46.260 --> 02:16:47.600 He showed me I deserved to go to hell. 02:16:47.840 --> 02:16:48.440 I knew that. 02:16:49.040 --> 02:16:53.460 He showed me the Bible says Jesus died for me, and all he's waiting on is an 02:16:53.460 --> 02:16:55.440 invitation to come in my heart and save me and forgive me. 02:16:56.080 --> 02:16:58.920 So, February 9th, 1969, I said, Lord, I'm a sinner. 02:16:59.020 --> 02:17:00.420 Would you please forgive me and save me? 02:17:02.000 --> 02:17:02.580 He did. 02:17:03.500 --> 02:17:05.100 That's getting born into God's family. 02:17:05.280 --> 02:17:06.300 Birth only takes a few minutes. 02:17:06.440 --> 02:17:07.640 Growth takes a long time. 02:17:08.120 --> 02:17:09.260 Birth, just a short process. 02:17:10.000 --> 02:17:11.760 You can get born into God's family right now. 02:17:11.840 --> 02:17:13.380 Just pray and say, Lord, I'm a sinner. 02:17:13.520 --> 02:17:15.500 Would you forgive me and save me right now? 02:17:16.620 --> 02:17:17.300 He'll do it. 02:17:17.460 --> 02:17:19.620 And you need to write today's date down as your spiritual birthday. 02:17:20.340 --> 02:17:21.320 And then you need to grow. 02:17:21.460 --> 02:17:22.660 Now, growth takes a long time. 02:17:23.040 --> 02:17:26.300 Growth involves reading your Bible, praying, getting baptized, going to 02:17:26.300 --> 02:17:29.600 church, studying what the scriptures say, trying to obey God's Word. 02:17:29.980 --> 02:17:31.620 Let Him have control of your life. 02:17:31.700 --> 02:17:32.960 Let Him be the Lord of your life. 02:17:33.320 --> 02:17:34.280 That's the growth part. 02:17:34.540 --> 02:17:36.680 Hey, if we can be any help, please feel free to call us. 02:17:36.880 --> 02:17:39.200 Our ministry exists to strengthen your faith in the Word of God. 02:17:39.400 --> 02:17:42.100 There are quite a few questions left hanging, like what about carbon dating? 02:17:42.320 --> 02:17:45.800 What about where do the races come from? 02:17:45.840 --> 02:17:47.780 We'll cover all that on video number seven. 02:17:48.000 --> 02:17:49.260 Hope this has been a blessing to you folks. 02:17:49.560 --> 02:17:50.120 Thank you so much. 02:17:54.240 --> 02:17:57.980 We hope you've enjoyed this video series on creation, evolution, and dinosaurs. 02:17:58.440 --> 02:18:02.380 Much more important, though, than knowing all the truth and facts about science is 02:18:02.380 --> 02:18:04.420 to know the truth about whether you're going to heaven or not. 02:18:04.740 --> 02:18:08.440 If you've never trusted Christ as your Savior, let me explain quickly what you 02:18:08.440 --> 02:18:09.500 need to do to go to heaven. 02:18:09.840 --> 02:18:11.600 The Bible says we're all sinners. 02:18:11.780 --> 02:18:13.360 We've all broken God's laws. 02:18:13.480 --> 02:18:14.820 We've disobeyed the Creator. 02:18:15.820 --> 02:18:17.200 We've done wicked things. 02:18:17.320 --> 02:18:17.800 We're sinners. 02:18:18.360 --> 02:18:22.000 Some are worse than others, at least in man's eyes, but we've all broken God's 02:18:22.000 --> 02:18:22.300 laws. 02:18:22.660 --> 02:18:24.240 And the Bible says you have to repent. 02:18:24.420 --> 02:18:25.700 The word repent means to turn. 02:18:26.140 --> 02:18:29.600 It actually means two things, to turn from your sin and to turn to God. 02:18:29.960 --> 02:18:32.820 God's looking for a change in your attitude where you say, Lord, I don't want 02:18:32.820 --> 02:18:33.700 to do wrong anymore. 02:18:33.760 --> 02:18:35.040 I'm sorry, I've offended you. 02:18:35.120 --> 02:18:36.100 I want to do right. 02:18:36.420 --> 02:18:40.780 And you turn from sin and you turn to God and say, God, would you please forgive me? 02:18:41.200 --> 02:18:42.000 Would you save me? 02:18:42.100 --> 02:18:47.840 The Bible says in Romans 3, verse 23, that all have sinned and come short of the 02:18:47.840 --> 02:18:48.580 glory of God. 02:18:48.700 --> 02:18:49.860 You need to admit you're a sinner. 02:18:50.300 --> 02:18:54.300 Number two, the Bible says in Romans 6, verse 23, the wages of sin is death. 02:18:54.500 --> 02:18:57.380 We deserve to die and go to hell because of our sin. 02:18:57.920 --> 02:18:59.960 But Jesus died for you. 02:19:00.260 --> 02:19:00.720 He loves you. 02:19:00.760 --> 02:19:01.760 He wants you to come to heaven. 02:19:02.280 --> 02:19:06.340 And anybody that will ask Him for the free salvation, God will give you the gift of 02:19:06.340 --> 02:19:08.360 eternal life, it says in Romans 6, verse 23. 02:19:08.480 --> 02:19:09.240 It's a free gift. 02:19:09.780 --> 02:19:13.340 And it says in Romans chapter 10, in verse 13, whosoever shall call upon the 02:19:13.340 --> 02:19:15.360 name of the Lord shall be saved. 02:19:15.600 --> 02:19:18.440 If you would just call and say, Lord, I'm a sinner, would you please 02:19:18.440 --> 02:19:19.020 forgive me? 02:19:19.520 --> 02:19:20.080 And ask Him. 02:19:20.260 --> 02:19:22.480 He will give you that free gift of eternal life. 02:19:23.300 --> 02:19:25.800 Why don't you just pray with me right now and you could receive Christ as your 02:19:25.800 --> 02:19:26.100 Savior. 02:19:26.380 --> 02:19:27.340 There's no magic words. 02:19:27.400 --> 02:19:28.260 God's looking at your heart. 02:19:28.660 --> 02:19:31.120 But if you could say this and mean it, God would forgive you. 02:19:31.600 --> 02:19:34.180 Just say, Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I'm a sinner. 02:19:34.680 --> 02:19:35.760 I've broken Your laws. 02:19:36.300 --> 02:19:36.940 I'm sorry. 02:19:37.060 --> 02:19:37.800 Please forgive me. 02:19:38.660 --> 02:19:40.400 Please apply Your blood to my account. 02:19:40.720 --> 02:19:42.660 Forgive my sins and take me to heaven. 02:19:43.360 --> 02:19:44.880 In Jesus' name, amen. 02:19:45.800 --> 02:19:48.380 The Bible says if you call upon the Lord you shall be saved. 02:19:49.020 --> 02:19:51.340 So if you've asked the Lord to save you, He promised He'd save you. 02:19:51.780 --> 02:19:53.080 Now your job is to grow. 02:19:53.240 --> 02:19:56.820 Read your Bible, pray, get involved in a good Bible-believing church, and begin to 02:19:56.820 --> 02:19:57.920 grow to be a good Christian. 02:19:58.600 --> 02:19:59.200 Thank you so much. 02:19:59.280 --> 02:20:00.760 Call or write if we can be any help at all.
