- Many Christians have been taught that the Bible teaches an ancient earth and a regional flood in Noah's day. This presentation examines these claims in light of Scripture and demonstrates they are not supported by God's Word.

If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things? (John 3:12, ESV)

Because archeological researches proves that the Bible is accurate
@@Azyo62 I’m a Christian but no one is going to just “watch” what you tell them. He’s asking a question about what proof is there to show the bible is the truth and not a persuasion to fit some kind of cult ideology. Your response doesn’t answer his question. He’s looking for testable proof that pay homage to the bibles accuracy of history rather than what everyone else says. Archeological proof may point to the bible but it doesn’t prove that the bible is true. Hope what I’m saying makes sense. (I believe in the bible btw)
@@christianwinful8471
Well, archeology proves that several places and people in the Bible really existed. So the Bible is really accurate. Not just a book with fantastic stories…it's a book of history and a book that explains the Origin of everything and how God loves us.
@@christianwinful8471 So since you believe in the bible what proof do you have that it is true? What would you have recommended to answer their question?
@@domd4350 well he said created to convey spiritual ideas so I’m guessing he wants a sign to point towards Gods fingerprint. What we should look at is signs, miracles and wonders. The unexplainable, that is unique to Christianity. For example, recorded medical facts of people being healed from all types of sickness in the name of Jesus. I.e. blindness, deafness etc. This is because he’s asking for spiritual elements and not just physical ones. I mean if people are clinically declared dead then a few minutes later when a Christian prays in the name of Jesus then a heartbreak strikes up, it pays homage to the miracles and promises described in the bible which would be a BIG claim and a falsity in itself if it weren’t true. So no one can say that those miracles aren’t true especially since they happen today in the name of Christ. This now makes the case for Christ’s resurrection more of a possibility for them. Even though the same people require little to no evidence to believe in the history of Darwin....
Did you know: uni - meaning singular
And verse - meaning spoken sentence
Universe - A singular spoken sentence.
Kinda cool ain't it?
Sure.
Yes it is cool until you study etymology of it and realise to be a tool.
@mcfunthomas the roots are of Latin origin and they translate as mentioned.
@@sologamer3122 , you're wrong.
It's from Latin universum, neuter of universus ‘combined into one, whole’, from uni- ‘one’ + versus ‘turned’ (past participle of vertere).
@MrKoronaTatr versus and verse are two entirely different words of different meaning. And a verse is a spoken statement. Uni has always been ONE. So where am I wrong? Maybe my origins are slightly off but the meanings are correct.
Im not religious... And no longer call myself atheist... I'm just searching for answers and it seems no one has answers... But this has been very informative .... I used to mock religious people for their beliefs... Now to inform atheist that this idea of God is a concept far beyond the simple understanding of meer men (referring to mankind not men specifically)
By searching for “answers” I think we assume there are some to find.

@@CR-yd4qe I can find answers, like the universe can't create itself. 1LofT states that energy can't be created or destroyed, it can't happen naturally.

What better way for God to express his magnificent and awesome power than to explain the creation story in six days. If you read Genesis, then you get a glimpse of just how omnipresent and powerful God is. He cannot be put in a box.
Is your God so powerful he can put himself in a box?
@@ngc-fo5te great question. Keep asking those questions you’ll get there friend.
God is so omnipresent he can not fit into any universe. He is the ultimate ouitsider making massive things he can't interact with just like dark matter. The only option is to make u8p lies to justify the existence of a god.
So who wrote Genesis? There was no human at the beginning.
@@victormark2205 Wow. Man I never considered that. Guess that refutes the Bible. ……
When you you really start searching for truth you will be right back at Genesis with a completely different perspective. GOD speed my friend.

@@kelrogers8480 she did bring up an interesting point. AIG usually has comments disabled. Recently I've found a few of them with comments enabled. Maybe it has something to do with monetizing their videos, I don't know.
AIG does not usually welcome open discussion, especially when it comes to science related topics.. I've read their statement of faith; they are an anti-science website, so it's no surprise they usually have comments disabled, because it's rather easy to simply cite data and evidence that contradicts their positions on subjects like 'Global Flood' for example.
Disabling comments is one of their ways to keep things like they were in the good old days before the age of the internet. Keep everything enclosed in their little belief bubble, ya know? It's much safer that way. Also, they misrepresent, misquote, and quote mine scientists a lot, so, it's much safer for them to try to protect themselves from honest criticism.
God is the ultimate authority! Thank you for this wonderful video!
@@Pikkabuu by prayer and by reading His Word...The Bible. And how do you know He isn't the ultimate authority? Oh wait... by listening to people who don't know anything about God or the Bible or don't believe it and by what they write. I think I'll stick to The Word and to what God has to say. I prefer to believe in a wonderful ultimate authoritative God who created the earth instead of an amoeba that exploded in a big bang. Now I have a question for you... Why are you people always on here trying to denounce God?. Why does it make a difference to you what I believe? This is a channel discussing The wonderful God that created this earth. And that wonderful authoritative God is coming back.... And you will meet Him whether you believe in Him or not.

Your mental gymnastics to avoid reality are truly staggering.
No surrender to the truth.
This highlights something that is saddening about many fellow Christian’s approach toward this subject.
We spend little time looking for evidence to make a convincing argument, instead, we go on and on about the failures in others.(including Christians with slightly different views)
Is this what Jesus taught us ?
I brought the evidence up to my pastors, to defend our faith. Their reply is we have sessions from time to time in our activities schedule. Fine, but this needs to be a theme to be discussed over weeks during service. And, it will give Christian parents the knowledge to answer their kid's tough questions as they become teenagers.. Once you get somebody to successfully rationalize a creator, the rest is easier.
Yes! We must remember that our salvation is not dependent on whether we agree with 6,000 year old Earth or not. Not much was mentioned about the gap theory. It's quite fascinating and does not agree with Darwinian Evolution at all.
I used to buy all evolution had to sell. I am so thankful for ministries like AIG that present what real science, and the Bible, teach us.
Evolution is a Fact of Genetics.
Read the work of Francis Collins - The Evangelical Christian responsible for sequencing the Human Genome.
@@Ben-no4lz sequencing things doesn’t show their origins. The sequencing may even be wrong.
Here is the pattern I have seen over and over by evolutionists under creation vids:
There is no evidence that they even watched the vid. No data therein is referred to, much less did they even try to refute a single fact that was presented.
@@loricalass4068 Yes it does.
“The evidence supporting the idea that all living things are descended from a common ancestor is truly overwhelming. I would not necessarily wish that to be so, as a Bible-believing Christian. But it is so. It does not serve faith well to try to deny that.”
“Yes, evolution by descent from a common ancestor is clearly true. If there was any lingering doubt about the evidence from the fossil record, the study of DNA provides the strongest possible proof of our relatedness to all other living things.”
Francis Collins.
So that’s a Bible believing Christian, who also happens to be one of the worlds experts on Genetics & Evolution…….and he says you don’t know what you’re talking about.

Those are quotes from a CHRISTIAN….who is also an expert in Biology & Genetics - which shows your “evolutionist” nonsense for what it is……wilfull Ignorance.
The problem comes by man trying to use man's understanding to explain how the God of the Universe created things.
This is the "special pleading fallacy". Special pleading is an informal fallacy wherein one cites something as an exception to a general or universal principle without justifying the special exception. One who employs this fallacy has no means of distinguishing their own god belief from any differing belief. That is, if one can suspend "man's understanding" to establish that Yahweh is the one true god who created the universe, then one can just as easily and justifiably suspend their reasoning to conclude that Brahma, Allah, Tepew, Gichi-manidoo, Chuck Norris, or The Force is responsible for creation. Special pleading is essentially a tool that rewards "wishful thinking" for the person who relies upon it while offering absolutely nothing of value for the person who does not.
@Captain-Cosmo Belief in God is called faith. But, everyone has faith, your faith is apparently in no God. Call it what you will, no one was there to see the beginning. Science of evolution is called a theory for a reason.
@@glennorrell3446 Regrettably, you chose not speak to my argument. Nonetheless, I will address your new claims. Respectfully, you are conflating two words to mean the same thing which do not. Please let me explain.
You stated the "belief is God is called faith". Indeed, I remember Hebrews 11:1 very well from my Sunday School days. But just as many words have multiple meaning, so does the word "faith". The word "faith" is also used in reference to a level of confidence apportioned to evidence. That is, "I have faith that my car will start this morning because I just had it serviced yesterday." In this way, religious faith leaps into the unknown, trusting in unseen forces and divine promises. It's a surrender, not a surety. Confidence, on the other hand, stands on proven ground, fueled by past successes and tangible evidence. It's a calculated bet based on what we can see and understand. While both involve trust, one navigates mystery, the other, familiarity.
The word "theory" also commonly experiences the conflation of its two very different meanings. In every day use, it simply means an idea. For example, "After seeing all three of the Star Wars sequels, I have a theory that they were each just made up as they went along." In science, however, is not merely a passing idea. Rather, it represents a very high level of confidence based upon rigerous, peer-reviewed testing and observation, and can even be used to make predictions." For example, Newton's theory of gravity (1687) predicts that the gravitational force on any object is proportional to its mass, while his second law of motion predicts that the resulting acceleration is inversely proportional to the object's mass. The theory has been subject to endless observation and testing, and yet still survives. Thus, to conflate the theory of evolution as "only a theory" demonstrates a fundamental lack of understanding of the difference between the two terms.
Christian apologetics offers many silly arguments such as these. They are intended to keep the faithful faithful, and hold no weight in any scientific arguments. At the current time, science can neither prove nor disprove any god beliefs. Even if evolution were scientifically disproven, therefore, we would be no closer to proving the existence of any gods.
I would caution against listening to Christians who speak against science and anyone claiming to use science to speak against Christianity, as the two are currently not reconcilable.
GOD IS CHUCKY D ISNT
Are we not just underestimating the almighty God !?
He could have done this in 6 seconds...
This discussion is fruitless, fact is I'm just in awe how beautiful it he did it we will never be able to fully understand it, it makes you humble...
Regarding the believe in the "Gap Theory" that there are millions of years between verses one and two...the original writing was one narrative with no verses. Verses weren't invented until the 1500s.
just as you said 'your theory'. Not facts
Both of you are incorrect. The gap is not a physical literary issue, it is a chronological issue about historical events. If you are not born again according to Biblical Christianity you cannot comprehend the truth, it's not possible. Ezekiel 28:11-19 and Isaiah 14:13-14 happens between the verses. Verse one is just an opening statement that destroys every religion and evolution immediately. If you don't understand 2nd Timothy 2:15 in a King James Bible you can't possibly get things right. When you do finally read the verse, who would you look to for an example of how to do it correctly? Failure in this one task is why so many different denominations exist, and they all blow it every time.
No verses ... chapters ... sentences ... paragraphs. .. titles ... not even gaps between words
And it was the evening and the morning of the ....day.
It's the only reason why we have a 7 day week.
What the text was like in the 1500s or before doesn't matter, the King James has the text broken into verses.
I didn't see this until I went into your studies.But in God's six days of creation,creating is like to make what was here.come forth again..the only thing that was brand new in his creation was man.For then the lord said let us make man In our own image..this was something totally new in this word...Amen
Everything was new. It was all created in the 6 days
@ianmonk6211 bet, I can make you see different, and in the Bible, not none of my opinion. But I can show you the billions and billions of years, or evolution as scientists calls it, Inside of the Bible.. and thank you.
I like the survey showing two departments disagreeing accurately reflecting those same two departments disagreeing
The dividing of the earth happened in Peleg's time as mentioned in 1 Chronicles 1:19: "19 Two sons were born to Eber:
One was named Peleg, because in his time the earth was divided; his brother was named Joktan."
Isn't it a bit foolish to try to determine the age of the Earth by counting generations in the Bible? The Bible is a collection of books and not all books written FOR the Bible are included IN the Bible. It's an edited anthology. That's why you have little hiccups every now and then when places like "The Land of Nod" are mentioned and where Cain got his wife. If God wanted us to know exactly how old the Earth is, that information would have been included in the Bible, but it isn't. The only true answer is that the age of the Earth is NOT given us to know in the Bible and any argument or estimation of the age of the Earth is merely unsupported opinion based on incomplete information. The precise age of the Earth is unimportant. I'll say that again, the precise age of the Earth is unimportant. No Christian should ever try to tell another they know the age of the Earth. Trying to sell someone an opinion based on incomplete information is more like something a cult leader or a dishonest salesman would do. The Earth need not be only 6,000 years old for God to exist, if you feel differently you're only fooling yourself as the Bible does not give the true age of the Earth. Man has interpreted through his self proclaimed "wisdom" out of vanity that which was never given for interpretation. Remember, if God exists he certainly could have been around 4.3 billion years ago without question.
An old earth weakens the christian narrative, because of the earth is old, then god was just sitting on his ass for most of history untill 2023 years ago. So people like baldy here just casually contradict everything known in many fields of science to strengthen his own narrative, completely oblivious to the fact that he cannot actually support any of his claims .
In a interview with a street preacher; the preacher ask a man: what would you need to believe in God? If Jesus would come and stand here just in front of you, would you believe ? He said, no. …. The love of sin is strong.
If the continents formed as a result of the Flood, then how did animals get to Australia and Antarctica? I know penguins can swim, but kangaroos?
They were breaking apart and moving away slowly due to the flood. It wasn't instantaneous. The animals had time to head out after the flood.
I always assumed they traveled across ice bridges. (they say the last one was 10,000 years ago) do what you will with that info. Theres not factual evidence for it, just my 2 cents.
Are you taking the lying sinful word of us scientists about Australia and Antarctica existing, or have you personally been there to test our claims?
How much faith do you have in our lie that "penguins" and "kangaroos" REALLY exist?
Well Qantas, of course.
The life in Australia has been developing for millions of years, isolated from the other continents. That why life there is so distinct.

@@tedburney3059
Well, braintrust, it proves that your god didn't write the bible, because the flood story came from another religion.
@JB-yb4wn what religion did it come from? and what about the flood before Noah's flood? The flood that was 100,000 years ago and had destroyed the whole earth? Which one of your religious books mentions that?
@@tedburney3059 Noah didn't write anything because it didn't happen
I think if God had provided a scientific journal that it would not change as we learn more because He knew all before he wrote it.
I was a young boy, maybe 7, when we came to the list in Genesis in school. So I added up the ages and came up with 1400 and some years till the flood. I realized my figure would be short up to a year per generation, but that did not seem like much. Mom was sure you could not figure like that, but she could not explain why, so I stuck with my figure.
And yet it was complete nonsense anyway.
@@peteconrad2077 They say the universe is 4.5 billion years old. Im going to dismantle this theory. First lets look at oil. It's stored under rock with a pressure of 20,000 psi.

Theres 70 sextillon or 11 trillion per person, or 1,650,000 stars being formed per minute. for 20 billion years. We have never seen a star form. Ever. Science think the form in gas clouds, but its more likely the gas is just moving out of the way. Super Nova rings form when a star dies. There should be millions of them of the universe is so old right. Theres under 300. You might say "well takes billions of years for a star to die" wrong. The Egyptians claimed Sirius was red.

If a day begins when the sun rises, and ends when the sun sets... well if you go to the northern or southern regions of the world, these are are longer/shorter than 24 hours, based on the time of the year. There is a lot of evidence to support that the Garden of Eden was at the North Pole, because it used to be lush, etc. Look into the Vedas... Robert Sepehr video shared this information with me, if I remember correctly. Very compelling. So anyways this is an explanation for how the days in Genesis can be much longer than the days in the rest of the Bible.
That's exactly the problem with his argument. He talks like everyone today, and the history of time are from the USA and spoke fluent English. The Earth also changes it rotation speed as well. And also, how do you measure a day when the Earth, stars and light don't even exist yet? Obviously, the day being measured and written about would not be the same as the context today. Add on first known spoken languages, passing this information on by word of mouth and eventually writing it down, then translating this all the way up to modern English.....it's amazing this guy actually believes we don't have any room for error!
Lol! It must be exhausting doing all those mental gymnastics.
It had nothing to do with sun rise and sun sets. Still, you can make up anything you want.
I noticed something interesting in Gen. God created all things in the fullness of its age so it could be fruitful and multiply. I am of the opinion that even the earth, and all of heaven. (Moon, Sun and Stars) (In other words the universe) was also created in the fullness of its age as well. That would explain what the James Webb telescope is finding.

If you were adrift in a vast ocean, I estimate that you would be completely unaware of the tectonic plates moving beneath you, earthquakes, and mountain ranges being born as a result. It is entirely possible that the mountains as we know them now did not exist before the flood and could've formed during or after.
There was no flood, it would leave massive evidence, there isn't any.
If by a flood that you mean the one that covered the planet some 2 billion years ago, then yes, otherwise you are laughably wrong.
Are you kidding me? You know nothing, nothing of geologic processes then. A little shift in tectonic plates a mile under the water ccan create a hundred foot wave to kill hundreds of thousands of people...as if from a little baby pushing on a rock... and you think if we had the energy of tens of thousands of atom bombs disrupting the rock, we wouldn't be about to detect that.

Edit: oops nvm. A survey sent to private 'Christian universities'. That explains his data. I thought he was just making stuff up, but now I understand the 30%.
Also to validate the survey, some mention of the science of the department and how many people responded should be displayed.
And that survey shows how engraved brainwashing is. We are told a million times before we step into school the earth is billions of years old. I was in that group. Came to my senses.

Agreed - and even if it was legitimate data it would not be evidence for a young earth, just evidence that some people think so and some dont.
@@joecatt16 finally, a sane person
I’m a seeker. I see how the Grand Canyon could be formed quickly; However, how do we explain the continents shaped like puzzle pieces. I’m not seeing a young earth being able to facilitate the apparent tectonic plate drift. I’m interested in any thoughts. I want to believe it all, but am just not there yet.
That last sentence sums it up. Believers WANT to believe this crap because they're so invested in it. And this is why religion can be harmful as it causes people to literally deny reality. Don't take a dying child to the hospital, just pray for him to be healed ...that would be pretty funny if this hasn't happened a zillion times and still does causing easily preventable deaths.
well, I don't know how long tectonic plates usually take to shift, but, if you read Genesis chapter 1 it sure sounds like God made the dry land in one big piece, and the waters were all gathered in the same place, and then in Genesis 7:11, when describing the flood, it says that the 'fountains of the great deep were broken up' (that's kjv some other versions put it 'burst forth' either way the language is violent). the floodwater wasn't just rain, it was geysers and spouts of water from the heart of the planet. That sounds to me like the sort of thing that might reasonably be supposed to have set off a chain reaction of earthquakes and tectonic activities that might have caused the continental arrangement we see today, and I don't see any reason why it couldn't have happened over a few thousand years, given that kind of sudden trauma.
Admittedly this isn't exactly my area, so if you're really interested in learning about this sort of thing I suggest you do a deep dive into the literature yourself.
Just remember that the people presenting the facts aren't going to present the bare information, they'll filter it through their worldview either consciously or subconsciously, so keep sifting through the assumptions on both sides until you find the raw data, and then you can decide for yourself what narrative most reasonably explains those facts.
@Joe dirty71 Many things in the Bible can be taken literally. Of course the metaphors should be taken metaphorically, but the historical information is another matter entirely: for instance the crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth is one of, if not the, best attested historical event, ever, and if you can't take that literally you can't trust history. Period.

@@Mario-ob8es where does it say these things? Because a number of the books (Psalms, Proverbs, Job, among others) Are actual, literal, poetry, of course there's poetic language and devices. You have to pay attention to context to know which passages are literal and which are metaphorical. But I suppose I shouldn't expect someone who copy-pastes their own arguments into other people's discussions, and hate-watches videos, (assuming you actually watched the video) apparently with the sole goal of picking a fight in the comments, to care about context.
If the genealogy in genesis are not complete how can you use them the gauge the age of the earth . Can somebody answer this question .
That’s assuming the genealogy is missing parts. I believe, that as the bible is a historical record, it is true and accurate, preserved by God: the same as you would believe any historical record that exists today. You do not know if those other historical documents are completely true, yet there is a level of trust that you must put into the accuracy of those records. And the genealogy of the earth is correct based on the events we can see have happened according to observable science(the flood being a major one).
Jewish ppl were taught to record their generations. They still do it meticulously.
@@gogkrakenx8288 The Bible's accounts, including the Flood, are not what happened according to observable science. You are either mistaken or lying. Observable science overwhelming shows there was not a global flood. This isn't even contentious unless you are absolutely incapable to doing research or are suggesting that claims without evidence are scientific. Maybe actually research the topic instead of watch AIG and thinking it is accurately representing what is really being discovered.
Why would it say in the Bible the earth was divided in the days of Peleg four generations after Noah if it was during the flood??
The vast majority of human knowledge is inconceivable in a biblical context.

There is mentioned an hour and 20 minutes (1:20). God told Noah that man’s days would be 120 years. - One day is as a thousand years…6 days of creation = 6,000 years of history. - God gave the Junilee every 50 years…6,000 years is 120 jubilees.
The 7th day to rest, the 7 thousandth year to rest etc.
I’m curious if you’ve ever had discussion/debates with Hugh Ross? He’s an astrologer turned believer and has some really interesting thoughts about this subject as well. I believe his stance is that the Universe is very old, that God did create all of it, but that the Genesis story is God then, turning the earth into a habitat suitable for man. I don’t really have a stance either way. I just like to see the different views. I also, do not see this as a salvation issue.
Dr. Hugh Ross is a PhD Astronomer!!!!
NOT an astrologer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The bible is very literal on the fact that God made the earth in 6 full days and rested on the seventh day.
You mean "astronomer".
Astrology is pagan.
To call Jesus a liar, makes the one pointing the finger, the one with 3 pointing back, the one that may not even realise is lying.
In Mathew 19 the divorce debate, the Pharisees were trying to trap him on this, he pointed them back to the beginning.
Once you add up the years back to Abraham, then with the 58 year overlap in Noah's life to Abraham's, the Genesis 5 genealogy takes it back to Adam and Eve and is almost 6,000 years now.
Anything outside this timeline is conjecture or downright lies from the Antichrist spirit.
I saw a debate on that with him and Dr. Jason Lisle. Dr Lisle's responses to him, were more logical, than Hugh Ross' statements.
It's wild that anyone would try to argue that old earth creationism was the explanation from the beginning and that somehow younger is new. It's difficult to imagine any serious person could be that wrong and not know it. I know we are supposed to be charitable here, but sometimes I wonder if that is as reasonable as people think.
Our ancestors had not the slightest idea about the age of the Earth. The bible is not about science either. Proof: There is nothing written in the bible that our forefathers could not have known.
It might be true that the evangelists felt inspired when they were writing the bible. But the parts of the bible that deal with miracles by research are to be regarded as fantasy - not as science backed up by any research.
And without the miracles - the bible is not much of a holy book either, right?

I legit want to know, if the universe was created in 6000 years:
1) How do you explain Mars' Jezero crater and its delta formation with the levels of detected carbonates knowing it would take a LOT longer than 7000 years to form based on the testable/repeatable minerology, erosion and sedimentation rates? Was there a global flood on Mars? Geologists can explain it in detail, why can't young earth creationists?
2) How do you explain paleontologist's ability to perfectly predict the exact fossils expected to be found at each layer and location? Just one example is that they can predict that stegosaurus will never be found with T-Rex layers and they have tens of thousands of these examples and they are correct 100% of the time. Where do paleontologists and geologists get this magical power from and why would God go out of his way to plant all of these fossils that disprove a young earth?
3) How do you explain the lack of certain types of fossils between Mt. Ararat and the areas they now live? For example, the lack of kangaroo, koala and other marsupial fossils between Mt. Ararat and Australia. The Bible predicts that should be at least ONE as they migrated back to their natural habitats.
4) How do you explain what creatures like carnivores and Koalas even ate on the ark? Koalas ONLY eat a select group of gum leaves that ONLY grow in Australia. Did God just magic all of the meat for the lions and gum leaves for them?
5) How do you explain why there is no evidence of any Egyptian army under any seas east of Egypt as the Bible predicts? Both Atheists and Christians have looked with divers and technology like sonar, but not a single piece of metal from that time has been found. No sword, shield, belt buckle, anything!
6) How do you explain why creationists can't get any papers admitted to science journals (not even accounting for peer review) based on your argument of the supposed evidence of a global flood all over the world? The scientists I know would LOVE to prove other scientists wrong because they'd get Nobel prizes if they could upsend the science community.
7) Why is the 'problem' of millions of years in literally every single field of science? Astronomy, Archaeology, Biology, Forensics, Geology, Geography, Linguistics, Paleontology, Physics, Virology and Zoology. Why do they ALL agree and why is there no field of science that indicates a young earth?
8) Why would God be fearful of mankind working together in one language to build a large tower that could "reach the heavens", but only 4000 years later God is suddenly ok with humans living on the ISS, the Moon, communicating using translators over the internet and using phones with instant translaters? The common excuse is because man was instructed to spread out to all the earth, but that's not the reason the Tower of Babel story gives! The Bible gave a very clear reason it was because God feared that there was nothing that humans could not achieve. Are we just going to ignore the bits of the Bible we don't like? Why would God give a reason only for us to reject it because we now know better?
9) How do you explain the ability for big oil companies to use evolutionary theory to find hydrocarbon deposits? Did you know they've even been assisting NASA to finding biological markers on other planets? The world is moving on enjoying modern technology and furthering scientific knowledge while YEC Christians are looking as silly as flat earthers not knowing that evolutionary science actually works in the modern world.
10) Why aren't American Christians out the front of NASA protesting the Mars Perseverance and Curiosity rover missions? The NASA missions are a waste of time as Christians already have the answers for the age of all the craters and mountains on Mars right? Astrogeology and astrobiology are the key goals of the mission, did you think NASA were spending billions of dollars just because it's cool?

I think of it as the laws of nature.
Every painter lays a white paint on the canvas as a sort foundation for the art piece(usually anyway. Most traditional artists do this). The first day was God laying the foundation of this portion of the universe that was nothing, “void,” as the bible says.
There is evening and morning now because time(a law of nature that has now been created) now exists. This sets the foundation for the rest of creation.

@@gogkrakenx8288 The difficulty though is this: everything we see, every person, every shape, is just the brain interpreting the consistent pattern of photons that hits the eye. When I "see you," what is happening is that really my retina is being hit by photons that bounce off of you in such a way, at such angles, that you can be interpreted and visible. Right?
The problem here is, since stars even in our own galaxy are as much as a hundred thousand light years apart, which can be measured accurately in a number of ways, well.... when you look at the stars, do you think they really exist? You _shouldn't._ The only way we could be receiving photons that _look like_ they are emitted from stars, in a young universe, is if God created the light that _looks like_ it was emitted from stars, but those patterns of photons were in fact created 6000 light years away from us in space. God, for whatever reason, wanted to make it look like stars exist, when in fact you have no reason to believe they exist at all since there hasn't been time for their light to reach us from that distance anyway, meaning the light that looks like it is coming from stars actually isn't coming from stars.
It's a very.... creative.... way to Let There Be Light.
@@Who_IsLike_God
OK, let's slow down and be clear about the three 3 things I said. If you think that "we don't need an hourglass to have an hour" addresses my point, you misunderstand. In summary:
1) When I "see you," or see anything else, what I am "seeing" are the particles and beams of light that have bounced off of you. That light interacts with my eyes, which is how people see. Make sense?
2)If the earth is 6000 years old, and light moves at the speed of light, then 6000 years ago, the particles/beams of light that are interacting with our eyes when we look up at the sky and say we "see the stars," or were 6000 lightyears away. A lightyear is the _distance_ that light travels in a year. So 6000 years ago, the light was 6000 light years away. Make sense?
But stars are not just 6000 light years away. And the galaxies we _think we see_ and take pictures of through telescopes are millions, even billions of light years away. Therefore, God made light that _looks like_ it is coming from stars and galaxies, which is impossible. Why did he deceive us like this?
The light was likely a dispersed field of plasma. I say this because God separated the light from the dark, which seems to suggest that the light had a material source that was originally intermixed with the dark empty space.

Do you have a video about the dispersal of Noah's descendants?
I wish I could find it again, but about a year ago I found an extremely detailed video about the dispersal of Noah's descendants. The man who did the research worked on the project for over 15 years, analyzing the DNA of every single people group on the planet. He then constructed an incredibly detailed map of the dispersal of humans from Noah to this day. The map was at least 10 feet long and about 5 feet high, containing thousands of individual lines that he had drawn, connecting every people group on the planet back to the middle east and Noah's family. This also included hundreds of branches that split off from main branches, and showed in great detail the population evolution from various genetic mutations (such as blonde hair and blue eyes, or whatever). Then branches from them, and so on. And Ham's descendants (Ham means black in Hebrew) who had migrated southwest into Africa, including all genetic mutations that gave rise to the various traits of Africans. And all people groups who migrated into eastern Asia and down into Australia, all all of their variants. Anyway, I can't explain it all, if I can find his video again, I will come back here and let you know because it was the most incredibly detailed genetic study that I have ever seen. And everyone, I mean everyone, led straight back to Noah's family in the middle east. It seems like he said he estimated Noah's family to have lived somewhere between 4500 to 5500 years ago, based on his calculations, not just of population spread and genetic variations, but also based on mutation rates.

The Satan who was added to the whole story at the last minute to help with loyalty to the faith and church tithe revenues?
@@leftgrrl Satan was there from the beginning. Genesis 3:1 - Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”
Loyalty to God is brought on by knowing Him. Understanding that we did nothing to deserve the forgiveness of our sins, but that God came to earth, in human form and lowered himself in obedience to die a most horrible death so that we could live in relationship with God.
Faith - faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen. It takes faith to believe that God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him, shall not perish - but have everlasting life.
Tithing - tithing is a biblical principal, it’s literally giving God a 10th of what is already His. It’s also the only thing God has ever said “test me” about. Micah 3:10 - “Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.”
Christians don’t “tithe to their faith out of fear of Satan.” Lol
We tithe because God has said that if we do, he will pour out so much blessing that there will not be room to store it. I personally know it to be true, as do so many more.
It would be convenient though, if Satan was made up, if he were fictional. I could see how it would be a great benefit to him if he could convince others that he was fictional. But I know better. I know the truth and the truth has set me free. I have heard God’s voice, I have sat in His presence, I have been healed by Him, I have felt His overwhelming Love permeate ever fiber of my being, I have moved mountains with a mustard seed sized faith and I know that I know that I know that my redeemer lives.
You can know Him too, He already knows you. He knows what you are going through, He knows how broken your heart has ever been, and He knows just what you need.
Try this - next time you misplace something, anything. Your keys, your shoe, a remote… just something you in the process of looking for - stop and ask God to show you where it is and see what happens. I believe that God will show you exactly where it is.

My response to another Lennox video... Firstly, from what Lennox said is interesting to learn that Usher wasn't specificaly working out how old the earth was, he was working out when Adam was born.
From 6:34 Lennox talked about the earth moving idea. The important point in this section is that Lennox around 7.50 stated that the word 'fixed' in the Bible is NOT talking about being geometrically or spatially fixed.
This is an important point. When we are reading the Bible we must be careful not to impose some popular/traditional contemporary definition of a word upon how the Bible uses that word. We need to examine what Moses etc had in mind when using that word. When I was a kid if someone said 'Web' I would think of what is made outside by a 'spider', but now I would most likely think of the internet.
Unfortunately, Lennox doesn't apply the principle he used for 'fix' to 'beginning', 'heaven' and 'earth'.
What is the word beginning in verse 1 of Genesis Chapter 1 referring to. You can't use the word beginning without having the object or action to which this belongs to. In the same verse we have 'made'. God was making things. This would take a period of time to accomplish. Moses was telling us that God made 'Heaven' and the 'Earth' at the START of this manufacturing process. Why is it important for this to happen? It would help if we knew what Moses had in mind with the words heaven and earth.
If we look at the context, like the rest of the chapter, we see that Heaven was made on the 2nd day and Earth was made on the 3rd day. This is the BEGINNING of the WEEK / manufacturing timetable.
There must be a reason why Moses tells us that "heaven" and "earth" had to be made at the beginning. The answer is in verse 2. God had picked one of His water-covered planets to put Adam and Eve on. The land God wanted to put Adam and Eve on was way down in the deep, dark water (without form) and therefore couldn't be inhabited (void). God had to do something about this water. In Isa 45:18 we are told that God FORMED the Earth so that it could be INHABITED (not VOID).
Notice in day 1 that we have an evening and a morning, a term used to refer to a 24 hour day. Evenings and mornings are based on the apparent movement of the sun through our sky. The sun was already there. If you think that 'heaven' is the universe then that is a problem. However, we will now look at what Heaven is. In regards to day 1 notice that the Apostle Paul said in 2Cor4:6 that the light that God made on that day came from the DARKNESS which was at the bottom of the water in Gen 1 verse 2. I suggest that it was the activation of the VISIBLE LIGHT SPECTRUM.
On day 2 we are told that God turned the middle portion of the water of verse 2 into a firmament to which God gave the name 'Heaven'. What is this firmament made of? Obviously components of the water. If we go to day 5 we find that WINGED fowl FLY in the FIRMAMENT of Heaven. So Heaven is the Atmosphere, containing the air that Adam and Eve need breathe. This is WHY Heaven was made at the BEGINNING or the start of the week. Making the air AFTER making Adam and Eve would have been a disaster.
The 2nd day ends with a layer of water above the atmosphere (that would have fallen in the Flood), then the Atmosphere, then another layer of water which was sitting on the land referred to as the Face of the Deep.
So we still have water on the land. On the 3rd day God made Seas. Seas have basins so obviously God had formed basins in the Face of the Deep and all the lower layer water flowed into these basins.
This left the surrounding land to be at last ABOVE the water level. The Atmosphere dried out this land between the seas and God called it Earth. So in the Bible the word Earth does NOT refer to the whole planet, but only to the dry CONDITION of the land. It is this CONDITION that is 6000 years old, not the planet.
Notice that we are not told about the land and the water being made during this week.
Since the universe and our planet existed before the Genesis creation event, why did God carry out the Genesis creation event? The CONTEXT of this event is the conflict between God and Satan. Many angels had left God to join Satan (Jude 1:6, Rev 12). Jesus said that the believers shall be equal to and like the angels (Matt 22:30, Luke 20:34-36). Even if Adam and Eve had NOT fallen, they and their descendants would still been made as angels to replace the fallen angels.
Don't forget that there as a 7th day in this creation week in which God (plural: includes Jesus) blessed and hallowed that day. Jesus told the Jews that He was LORD of the Sabbath (Matt 12:8. The 7th day of the week to the Jews). Why do so many professed Christians ignore the day that Jesus Himself said that He was Lord of?
Is there any evidence I can use that doesn't come from the Bible when talking to people about this? Everything here depends on someone already believing the Bible is true. I was hoping for something that I could use when talking to non-believers who aren't starting with that belief.
Unfortunately you’ve just described why religion is a faith and not a science. The creation of the universe is a topic that will probably remain unknown to humans for a long, long time. The creation of the Earth, and later humanity, however, is backed by an enormous amount of evidence that the religious community does not agree with. And the evidence refuting all of biology and astrophysics comes from? The Bible.
@@thomasplace6781 The speaker does ignore the fact that the Bible says a day is LIKE a thousand years to God meaning a day to God is an eternity to us. So backing up that would make at least 7000 years in the first seven days, but the Bible says 'like'. In reality God would set the length of his day by when he said it was done. Therefore we have no clue how long time passed in God's day or how long those 7 steps of creation lasted in our human time. So basically we know it was 6 phases and one of rest. Then human measurements begin. So the Earth could be billions of human years old or less. Who knows. There is also the fact God exists outside the laws he created for the universe. So if he created it outside then placed it inside who knows what time difference there would be to us.. People think way to small when reading Genesis they tend to put God in a bubble. He made tve bubble. He is limitless.
Andrew see my comment.
@@Tolbat Bruh🤦🏾♂️You missed his whole point SMH. Basically what he's saying is people who don't believe in god or that the Bible has any validity to it is that people who do believe need to learn how to talk to people who don't, when we ask questions about the Bible don't use the Bible as a source for the Bible. That's like using a word to define the same word.
In short no. As explained at the opening it's biblical "evidence" (the bible is true because the bible says it's true). I doubt that you could ever convince somebody who did not accept this that all the world's astronomers, astrophysicists, biologists, cosmologists, evolutionist, geneticists, geologists, physicists, etc were wrong and a collection of iron age stories were right.

The primary thing to mention here is that the scientific method assumes natural laws without any divine intervention have been functioning to shape the cosmos since the beginning.
If that assumption is false, then all of the scientific interpretation of the raw evidence on origins is called into question.
But the assumption is not false.
@@racebannon5523 If you believe that, you will never have an explanation for the origin of the universe. That’s the critical flaw in naturalism, and it’s of infinite importance because the universe following “natural laws” is trivial. The practical discoveries of naturalism are useful but in that sense also trivial. We know matter follows natural laws. The critical question will always be where does everything-matter and natural laws-come from.
@@matOpera divine intervention is not an explanation, it's an assertion...from an old book written 2000 years ago by superstitious old men out in the desert. Science doesn't know everything yet but at least it doesn't make stuff up.
Regarding the beginning of the universe... it's okay to say we don't know... that doesn't mean it must be a supernatural being.
@@racebannon5523 Every axiom is an assertion: including the naturalistic axiom of no divine intervention.
I’m not arguing science doesn’t know the origin of the universe _yet._ I’m saying it can _never_ explain the origin of the universe. The scientific method cannot explain an event that is beyond the natural laws we can observe.
As for God, it’s not just one book-it’s 66 in the Bible alone. Then there is every single known human society ever, all of whom believed in divinity. Then there are the many miracles God continues to work today.
They have been debating this subject of old age and young earth for many years using the bible and there is no clear cut answer. How can either side be so sure of themselves? There have been many books written supporting each side also.
This debate was about young Earth vs. those trying to make God's creation line up with the Darwinian evolution lied. What was not mentioned at all was the gap theory which allows for an older Earth, but does not in the least agree with Darwin
Thank you for this great presentation! My question to all of the Christians who take man's word over the clear teaching of Scripture on this, do they deny the authority of Scripture??? Sounds like that is what they doing.
They clearly deny that God said what he meant and meant what He said.
BTW, I really enjoyed your presentation on Genesis 6, at a conference.
Yes I do, because the scripture is full of contradictions, errors and amorality.

Very nicely done, Tim. One area where we probably differ is that I'm persuaded that the Masoretic text is unreliable regarding the ages between Shem and Abraham. The scheme was concocted to support the idea (I believe) that Shem and Melchizedek were the same person. Josephus and the LXX have it right, and this adds 750 years. It should bother all of us that church leaders, seminary professors, Bible college presidents and the like have departed from scripture. "Take heed that no one deceive you" may point at them.

Bless u Mr Steve if I may with the help of the holy spirit attempt to kinda clear this question up for you..first the original time frame is right..not ur 2nd opinion time frame..and 2nd if we could journey to Gen1 1 this is what God had gave to us as knowledge of his beginnings, Gen1:2 says something happened..when u see and the Earth " Was " without form and void. That word "Was" should be "Became ".Gen1:2 should say and the Earth became without form and void.

@@tedburney3059
Dear ted burney,
Translating from one language to another is very difficult due to different concepts and different ways of seeing things. Even translating from Elizabethan English to modern American English is full of difficulties as meaning of words change. I believe that "was" is more correct than "became" because the earth was not what it would eventually become as God chose to create it piecemeal (He could have created it completed right from the start but He chose to divide it into 6 periods He called days (He rested on the 7th day to provide a day of rest from everyday work and have time to worship. The earth was without form in my understanding is that it had not achieved to the form ready for mankind; and void meant that the earth had yet to have life on it. This was His plan and Moshe (Moses) wrote about God's purpose in creating an earth. Keep thinking and seek the truth and I will pray that you receive His Truth (reality). Peace to you and yours.
This is truly shocking, that such ridiculous, unsubstantiated ideas have gained such traction. If there is a loving God, he will surely put every single Evangelical Christian in re-education camps soon.
The sola scriptura types trying to make it all make sense.....
Then educate me how creation happened on its own. 1LofT states that energy can't be created or destroyed, it can't happen naturally. One aspect of the 2LofT shows that the universe is winding down, usable energy is becoming less usable. Creation had to be done supernaturally at some point.
@@2fast2block Young Earth Creationism and the impossibility of knowing what came before the Big Bang are two different things. Like with all forms of creationism, there is no physical evidence that proves Young Earth Creationism, the notion that creation both took place and took place but a few thousand years ago alongside other Biblical events. However, UNLIKE creationism broadly, which is simply the notion that there is some kind of supernatural creator that could have for example triggered the Big Bang, Young Earth Creationism is actively DISPROVEN by available evidence. Believing in it requires actively denying that physical evidence means anything. It is an archaic worldview with no place in the modern world. If you believe in Young Earth Creationism, you belong in an institution. Please seek help and/or an education ASAP.
There is a loving God. He is trying to get your attention. That's how you ended up here. Why don't you try to prove He doesn't exist?

If there is a loving God who was trying to get my attention by bringing me to this video, then He is clearly asking for my help in fighting back against the insane creationists sullying His name. I'm agnostic, but if that's what He wants from me, then amen to that.

Many people in the comments who don't believe in God, want to say He isn't real, that these are all ramblings, and that none of it is possible or real. If you really feel all that, then why are you commenting looking for an argument or a fight? It's because you're scared and you want to believe. Sit down tonight and pray. Read the Bible. Live His word. It'll change your life, you're fears will be alleviated, you questions answered. Peace and love to all of you.
Whether he’s real or not, we know the flood story and pretty much all of genesis and exodus is nonsense.
I only argue with young Earth creationists because they lie about science. I couldn't care less what their personal beliefs are. It's what they say and do because of those beliefs. That's what really concerns me.
Length of Creative Days. The Bible does not specify the length of each of the creative periods. Yet all six of them have ended, it being said with respect to the sixth day (as in the case of each of the preceding five days): “And there came to be evening and there came to be morning, a sixth day.” (Ge 1:31) However, this statement is not made regarding the seventh day, on which God proceeded to rest, indicating that it continued. (Ge 2:1-3) Also, more than 4,000 years after the seventh day, or God’s rest day, commenced, Paul indicated that it was still in progress. At Hebrews 4:1-11 he referred to the earlier words of David (Ps 95:7, 8, 11) and to Genesis 2:2 and urged: “Let us therefore do our utmost to enter into that rest.” By the apostle’s time, the seventh day had been continuing for thousands of years and had not yet ended. The Thousand Year Reign of Jesus Christ, who is Scripturally identified as “Lord of the sabbath” (Mt 12:8), is evidently part of the great sabbath, God’s rest day. (Re 20:1-6) This would indicate the passing of thousands of years from the commencement of God’s rest day to its end. The week of days set forth at Genesis 1:3 to 2:3, the last of which is a sabbath, seems to parallel the week into which the Israelites divided their time, observing a sabbath on the seventh day thereof, in keeping with the divine will. (Ex 20:8-11) And, since the seventh day has been continuing for thousands of years, it may reasonably be concluded that each of the six creative periods, or days, was at least thousands of years in length.That a day can be longer than 24 hours is indicated by Genesis 2:4, which speaks of all the creative periods as one “day.” Also indicative of this is Peter’s inspired observation that “one day is with Jehovah as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day.” (2Pe 3:8) Ascribing not just 24 hours but a longer period of time, thousands of years, to each of the creative days better harmonizes with the evidence found in the earth itself.
The chronology in the Septuagint is a few hundred years longer than in the Masoretic Text. Both are flawed:
The imminent millennial reign of Christ on earth coincides with Yahweh's 2nd 'day' of rest - "and His rest shall be glorious" because His Son is ruling on earth for that 1000-year-day.
So if Yahweh's first "day" of rest was ALSO a thousand-year-day, in which Adam died at 930 years old "in the same day" he sinned, and Adam was also made near the end of the previous 6th 'day', then we are currently near the end of the 13th thousand-year-day which actually ends on the "great and dreadful day of the Lord" on the 20th March 2031.
Speaking in flood terms -- lunacy just hit its high water mark with this video ..

Look up what a fallacy of composition is.

Another question of mine is who knows how long Adam and Eve lived in perfection with the Lord before sinning? Finally, I'll say that imo as an artistic person, there is such joy in the creation process that I find it very easy to believe God would take His time creating everything in this universe.

To be precise, Genesis chapter 1 does not say that God rested for one day. It says that he ceased from his work in creation on the 7th Day. That day is not bound by the statement evening and morning. God did not pick up his work in creation on the following day.

This vid boils down to "the earth is young because the Bible says so"
Was expecting a bit more than that based on the title
What it also boils down to is that the Bible is the inerrant word of God which it claims to be, or else it isn't. But if we choose to believe that it isn't, what are we basing that belief on? Man's word. So Which do you choose to follow and put your trust in? Man's word or God's word? That brings us down to original sin. Trusting man above God for what is ultimately true.... I can't make the choice for you, but I can tell you that I've chosen to trust God's Word and not my own, and that has made all the difference. "I once was one way, now I'm completely different."
@@jonnyrocket8138 your main mistake is accepting without question that the Bible is the inherent word of God, when its also very likely (even more likely in my opinion) to have been written by regular humans without divine inspiration. My main argument would be all other religions that claim their holy texts are divinely inspired, yet I don't think you believe they are true the same way you believe in your religion
Yeah, this is, "The most convincing evidence for a young Earth" ... if you're already a young Earth creationist. You'll notice, he's not arguing against Biblical Creationism skeptics in general, but against old Earth creationism in favor of young Earth. Even at that it's nothing new. Rather than "the most convincing" it's really more like "the same old" evidence that Ken Ham and his followers have been preaching for decades.
As an aside, when they use the term "evidence" it is important to understand what they mean. To a Christian, Faith is "The substance of things hoped for; the evidence of things not seen." Heb 11:1 So, when they say they have biblical "evidence" what they mean is they have faith that what the Bible says is true, in spite of all other evidence to the contrary.
