IMPORTANT TO KNOW THE EVIDENCE FOR A GLOBAL FLOOD

Posted on by

 Using the Bible, well-documented historical events, and some math, we find that the Flood began  approximately 4,359 years ago in the year 2348 BC. Genesis teaches it; Jesus and the apostles confirmed it. It also explains most of the rocks and fossils and obliterates billions of years. Without millions of years , evolution is impossible – not that it is possible if millions of years were granted. We should therefore be prepared to defend a global flood along with the rest of the faith, as well as refute arguments against it.

“But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled, but in your hearts honour Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect, having a good conscience, so that, when you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame.” 1 Peter 3:14-16

“We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, being ready to punish every disobedience, when your obedience is complete.” 2 Corinthians 9:5-6

The evidence for the global flood of Noah’s day is extensive and it can be found on two websites http://www.creation.com and http://www.answersingenesis.org.

The world must reject Noah’s flood as it destroys evolution which is their attempt to explain away the Cosmos without God. Noah’s flood also proves that God judged the world and destroyed all but the eight people on the ark God instructed Noah to make. Who wants to believe their creator would do that? Evolution has been one of Satan’s most effective ploys to deceive mankind into rejecting God.

What about now? Both Jesus and Peter told us that people will reject the true history of the world including Noah’s flood at the time before Jesus returns to Earth to rescue His Saints and God pours out His wrath a second time on an unrepentant world with the Trumpet and Bowl judgements.

“Just as it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of Man. They were eating and drinking and marrying and being given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all... so will it be on the day when the Son of Man is revealed.” Luke 17:26-27,30

“For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.” Matthew 24:38-39

In Peter’s second letter, he prophecies about future scoffers following their own sinful desires and denying Christ’s return. They “deliberately overlook” two foundational truths. The first was God created the world out of water and the second was the global flood of Noah’s day.

“Knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own sinful desires. They will say, “Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation.” For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and through water by the word of God, and that by means of these the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished.” 2 Peter 3:3-6

Jesus returns on the clouds with the angels to gather the Saints, first the resurrected Saints and then those alive on Earth. “Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Even so. Amen.” Revelation 1:7

God then pours out His wrath upon the Earth with the Trumpet and Bowl judgements. It so happens that His judgement last one year and ten days exactly the same time as God poured out His wrath the fist time with Noah’s flood. Why one year and ten days? When Jesus returns it will be a Jubilee year and the year before a Jubilee year is always one year and ten days.

THE TRUE HISTORY OF THIS WORLD

Posted on by

Read what the Apostle Peter reveals to us about God and His World, about angels, about SIN, about God’s judgement, about the worldwide flood of Noah’s day with eight survivors, God destroyed the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah as an example of what He does to the ungodly, and there is a day coming of judgement for all the ungodly – The Day of the Lord.

This is the true history of this world and its 6,000 years of existence. How did we get billions of years? It is absolutely essential if you believe in evolution to go from GOO to YOU. The worldwide flood of Noah’s day (God’s judgement) produced the fossils (billions of dead things all over the world) and the buried vegetation that produced all of our fossil fuels. It happened in one year not billions of years.

“For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to chains of gloomy darkness to be kept until the judgment; if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; if by turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes he condemned them to extinction, making them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; and if he rescued righteous Lot, greatly distressed by the sensual conduct of the wicked (for as that righteous man lived among them day after day, he was tormenting his righteous soul over their lawless deeds that he saw and heard); then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment, and especially those who indulge in the lust of defiling passion and despise authority. Bold and willful, they do not tremble as they blaspheme the glorious ones, whereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not pronounce a blasphemous judgment against them before the Lord. But these, like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and destroyed, blaspheming about matters of which they are ignorant, will also be destroyed in their destruction, suffering wrong as the wage for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions, while they feast with you. They have eyes full of adultery, insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children!” 2 Peter 4-14

The Apostle Peter also told us that in the last days scoffers would come denying the true history of the world and the worldwide flood of Noah’s day.

“You should remember the predictions of the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles, knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own sinful desires. They will say, “Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation.” For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and through water by the word of God, and that by means of these, the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished. But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist are stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.” 2 Peter 3:2-7

Do you know there are 86 verses in the Bible about The Day of the Lord: this is just one from Isaiah.

“Behold, the day of the Lord comes, cruel, with wrath and fierce anger, to make the land a desolation
and to destroy its sinners from it. For the stars of the heavens and their constellations will not give their light; the sun will be dark at its rising, and the moon will not shed its light. I will punish the world for its evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; I will put an end to the pomp of the arrogant, and lay low the pompous pride of the ruthless. I will make people more rare than fine gold, and mankind than the gold of Ophir. Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will be shaken out of its place, at the wrath of the Lord of hosts in the day of his fierce anger.” Isaiah 13:9-13

Check out the rest, I am sure God wants you to know that The Day of the Lord is coming: Isaiah 24:21-22, Zephaniah 1:14-18, Jeremiah 46:10, Job 20:28-29, Isaiah 13:4-6.

EXPLORING A CATASTROPHE OF BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS

Posted on by

Most visitors to geological parks don’t connect the rocks with Noah’s Flood. But that global cataclysm immediately came to mind when Dr. Felix Wong first went on a commercial-guided geological tour of Hong Kong. He told me:

The ‘geotour’ guides were showing us where a supervolcano had erupted, and water levels had increased catastrophically in the past. These secular guides did not seem to appreciate how this evidence for geological catastrophe impacted geology on a continent-wide scale, let alone global. Despite this evidence, they continued to explain the rocks purely from the perspective of uniformitarianism. This assumes that geological processes in the past were essentially the same as in the present. So, everything must be explained from a ‘slow and gradual’ standpoint, over great ages of time. An occasional local catastrophe can be invoked, but it is made to fit into this overall multi-million-year scheme.

Asked why he now spends time showing people evidence that Earth’s past was much more violent, he said: It is very much a personal motivation. If long ages from a ‘slow and gradual’ standpoint cannot be backed up by evidence, then the worldwide geological record, with all the death and violence observable in it, would be the catastrophic evidence of the global Genesis Flood—as identified by creationist geologists. Whereas if the long-age ideas were real, the death and violence we see in the fossil record would not have been the consequence of sin because these would have been in the world long before there were any humans. The whole message of the Gospel, and the credibility of Jesus Himself, who showed that He believed the events in Genesis really happened, including Noah’s Flood, would be undermined. This sort of evidence is life-changing.

Our main purpose is to help participants connect the rocks with the Bible, through an understanding of Noah’s Flood. The Flood ‘washes away’ the millions of years. I show how things that people have been taught take vast ages happened much more quickly and are found everywhere in the world, even in Hong Kong. Since 2019, we have run 78 tours with 1,800 participants in total. Most of our geotours have been in the eastern part of Hong Kong within the volcanic and sedimentary rock regions.

Besides the igneous rock, 15% of the land surface of Hong Kong is covered in layers of sedimentary rock. Felix explained:

Eroded from elsewhere, these sediments were transported and deposited by massive water flows into what geologists call sedimentary basins. Hong Kong has three of these basins: Tai Pang Wan Basin, Ap Chau Basin, and Pat Sin Leng Basin, with lengths of 30 km, 5 km, and 15 km (19, 3, and 9 miles) respectively. 

He pointed out that the geological features of these basins show that deposition was not a slow-and-gradual process:

For instance, the sedimentary rocks of the Tai Pang Wan Basin on Tung Ping Chau Island are at least 350 m (1,150 ft) thick, while the sedimentary rocks of Ma Shi Chau (Tolo Harbour Formation) are at least 500 m (1,650 ft).

Within the framework of the biblical Flood, such largescale sedimentary rocks would have been deposited during the early and late Inundatory Stage of Noah’s Flood. That is, when floodwaters rose upon the land. Then the exposed rocks would have been severely eroded during the Recessive Stage of the Flood, when the floodwaters were receding from the land back into the oceans. Such evidence can also be found from the exposed granite rocks which cover 35% of the land surface of Hong Kong. The receding water seriously eroded granite rocks into interesting forms including sea arches in Hong Kong.

HKCRM’s geotours have covered sedimentary rock regions including Tung Ping Chau of the Tai Pang Wan Basin (Fig 3), Ap Chau in the Ap Chau Basin (Fig. 4), and other sedimentary islands. The geotours examine mudstone, siltstone, sandstone, conglomerate, and breccia. In addition to these sediments, the deposited material also includes vegetation and animal remains in the form of fossils. Other features of interest include bedding details, recumbent folds (i.e., bent back on themselves by the force of water), and raindrop impressions. HKCRM’s geotours have covered granite rock regions, such as Po Toi Island. The exposed granite rocks were weathered by the receding floodwaters into interesting forms all over the island (fig. 5). When all these features are examined and explained, their relevance for past geological catastrophe becomes obvious and the participants on the tours are amazed.

God told us that in the last days prior to His return the world will deny God judged the world with the worldwide flood of Noah’s day and will be taken totally by surprise when He pours out His wrath once again on an unrepentant world.

“Knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own sinful desires. They will say, “Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation.” For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and through water by the word of God, and that by means of these the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished.” 2 Peter 3:3-6
