My only question is what became of the fountains of lava in the deep what particular type of rock was formed and how exactly did it settle. U know what I mean he doesn't explain.
Basalt. And they became islands, mid ocean ridges and Archipelegos. As far as the Continental fountains of water, they are what we call modern day impact craters. Those are actually extinct ancient geysers. @@jaykirch1376
When you look at an overview of the grand canyon there is no way those rock layers were layed down over millions of years.If they were millions of years old? Where are the rooting structures between the layers? Where is the evidence of burrowing animals or insects? There are none. Because there was never any time to root or bioturbate. Those layers were laid down in a short period of time. Like the period of a worldwide catastrophic flood.
This stuff blew my mind. God saved me 5 years ago. But I have yet to have the flood explained to me like it was in this video. Absolutely mind blowing.
@@ozowen So you watched it all I assume? And you come away with the thought that all these accomplished scientist are just making it all up? You're not going to correct any of it just say it's garbage? What a flat out weak stance and typical of someone that has been brainwashed their entire life (like I was) I pray God opens your heart and wakes you uo.
@@AyeTeeJay91 If catastrophic plate tectonics were in any way involved with the supposed flood of Noah, explain how any sedimentary layers laid down in that event could remain stable and clearly divided. The kind of tectonic movement proposed here means massive upheavals caused by huge volumes of water- superheated mind you, colliding in tsunamis of impossible proportions. The vortexes created could leave no recently laid (nor likely any older layers too) intact. There should be zero dry layers,zero clear sedimentary layers, zero aerial layers, zero stable varve laminae. The collisions would have been, must have been massive. The atmosphere would have superheated. All in a single year. Spread over a decade it still would have been such that no geo layers like the ones we do have would be anywhere for that period. How am I supposed to take this seriously?
@@ozowen So you're saying how are you supposed to take this seriously. But let me guess.. You believe in evoloution? And you believe in millions of years? Yet there is not 1 example of a change of kind in the evolutionary process. All of the fossils and data we have gatherd but cant find 1 example of a mid procees evolved speciaes or 1 example in modern time of a species changing kinds.. And I'm supposed to take that seriously?
@@AyeTeeJay91 1) "Kind" is not a scientific term. However, we have observed speciation. (ie: a new species form) 2) Transitional forms are NEVER half formed. Never. 3) We have hundreds of thousands of transitional forms.
I watch these videos and remember the questions I have had throughout my life while eagerly internalizing conventional earth science, evolution, anthropology, history, astronomy, etc. Many things just sounded improbable but I silently swallowed what I was fed because everybody else seemed to. Catastrophic earth history is far more palpable than 5 billion year earth history. Rediscovering my faith has led to a catastrophic paradigm shift in my thinking about everything. I'm glad that I have always been interested in and followed science and history as an amateur because I'm not just blindly believing, but finally making an informed decision, and realizing we've been fooled. Bottom line, a young earth kills evolution and they just can't allow that. If the news is fake, imagine the history.
@@davidgardner863 You have confused Kinds with Species. Man has developed different species of dogs and horses over the years, from kinds, but we have never came up with a new KIND of animal. They are still dogs or horses. It's just like the mule, they are hybrids of the horse kind. There are hundreds of. Species of Dogs, but all still the Dog KIND... The Chihuahua a species... The Great Dane a species... both DOGS.
@@Pfrazier43 ,You haven’t a clue what you’re talking about. You don’t know the difference between breeds and species. All dogs are breeds of the same species. Kinds is a meaningless word in the biblical sense. Creationists have no explanation of how a few thousand species before the mythical flood became millions of species afterward. Why don’t you get a little educated before spewing absurd nonsense.
@davidgardner863 There are scientists who can explain this, so don't dismiss this out of hand. Jonathan Sarfati is one, & there are others working for Creation Ministries International amongst other organisations. But if your mind is made up, then don't bother with it. Peace to you.
I love ALL of the explanations that are given here . And I love them for the same reason I love it when a puzzle piece finds its spot . Thank you so much 🙂
This is amazing!! These wonderful educational videos continue to validate what I have intuitively 'seen' for years as I observe in the landscapes wherever I travel!! God BLESS Dr Snelling!!! We live in astounding times!! God is revealing Himself in so many ways... tying up the knots, connecting the dots, and bringing together the scriptures in REAL TIME!!! Praise God!!
@@mdsign001 Stop being triggered, goto Google maps, switch to satellite view and go look at the Grand Canyon right now. It was not caused over time by natural waters. Just look at it for yourself.
I love this channel. These are extremely intelligent people, who are excited about what they do, and are faithful to the word of the Bible, as fact. That is so foreign to any previous science, that I can't get enough. For the first time, it sounds like truth. Plausible, verifiable truth. And a great host, btw. I look forward to seeing these notifications.
It sounds like proof ... emphasis on SOUNDS. You know it's not the same as actual proof right?! Nothing in this video is. Just go read a non religious "science" book instead of a book full of fairytale and magic.
Dan Dangerous I have always questioned science as a child being drug to church, now I am a total believer, Jesus rose up into the heaven with over five hundred witnesses, rises from the dead, floats into heaven, fulfills prophecy from hundreds and even thousands of years foretold in the Bible and ancient Jewish scripture! Try reading, (here is one of many ) Isaiah chapter 52+53 , messianic prophecy starts 2/3 into chapter 52, and through 53 explaining in past tense a future event in detail (650 years before it happens ! Wow! ,blows my mind every time I read it, along with the Christmas story in Luke you know that Charlie brown one, and many other prophecies were fulfilled to prove that Jesus was the one sent from God half God half man born in flesh of Gods spirit to a woman who was a virgin. Wow!
@@paulschwarz406 Hi. Did you ever wonder why folk like you are not more common? I mean folk who take things literally and without question. Well, one reason is that most people also questioned science when they were kids but they found its answers made more sense than the stories they had previously accepted from grownups that they quite naturally trusted - parents and pastors. Stories like Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, but also stories like virgins giving birth. "Answers" like "Ah, but with God all things are possible" or "You'll understand when you are older" are seen by most folk as not being answers.. Most folk grow up and start thinking for themselves. Most people read the Suffering Servant and A Virgin will conceive sections of Isaiah and look at the context. Isaiah is addressing an appeal from a worried King Ahaz and reassures him that in a few years time the problem with his neighbors will have vanished. The text of Isaiah clearly states that a maiden HAS conceived. It is only in Matthew that we hear she was a virgin and that her pregnancy would be 700 odd years in the future. Isn't that strange? Well not really, not when there are over a dozen other examples of the author of Matthew quote mining the Hebrew scriptures for "prophecies" foretelling Jesus. Oh yes, things are often more complicated than a superficial reading might suggest.
This simply never gets old or boring. Thank you so much for keeping it available . Prayerfully it will change the lives of people, making them hungry for the truth. Thank you!!
Imagine what it must have been like for those who did not believe Noah's warnings (like today w/many mocking GOD'S Word). As soon as GOD shut the door of "The Ark" the ground beneath their feet began to be torn apart as the "fountains of the deep" erupted. They went from having a good time doing evil to total terror knowing at that moment what they mocked was coming to pass & there was no escape. God gave them 120 yrs to repent in Noah's day. This time GOD has given the world 2000 yrs. & because of Jesus Christ & Him crucified more than 8 people will be saved. This time the judgement will be by fire. GOD'S Word can not be broken. AMEN.
If we really think about it, the scenario is horrific. No wonder we are told to warn of the wrath to come. Yet, as the people were in Noah's time, we see men rejecting God's warnings and ridiculing His people. As it was in Noah's day, so it is now. Even so, come quickly Lord.
@James Was Here Agreed. He's basically saying that current theories have gaps (like anything) so therefore his god theory makes more sense. Might as well believe that people live to 950 years old. Oh wait...
They say Einstein was a genius but this guy explaining all this is the true genius he’s not trying to figure things out he’s just trying to make sense of what happened
You just wonder what Noah's reaction was when God opened the door. He must have been blown away by when he saw. Too bad there weren't a couple of chapters in Genesis of his reactions. It would have been interesting. Can't wait to ask him about it in Heaven, if that's something God cares to share with us there.
Noah's reply is recorded in Genesis. He planted a vineyard, made wine, and got drunk. Considering how devastated the earth was post-flood compared to pre-flood it is hard to blame him.
Mount Saint Joan volcanic explosion went all the way across the East Coast to Toledo Ohio and then some. I remember it like it was yesterdayLonger Winter's shorter summers. Winter was much colder, A fruits and vegetables that gardeners and farmers would grow was 32 sometimes 14 times the size of a normal fruit or vegetable, Volcano ash was high in nutrients and minerals, vitamins For all Plant life.
I've been looking forward to this video. You didn't disappoint! I do have a few questions. First of all, Dr. Snelling said something that made me think he thought that the 'fountains of the deep' referred primarily to volcanoes. I had always pictured that as geysers of water. Also, he said the ocean floors were all basalt. Was that just melting of the rock from rapid tectonic plate motion? Or was there flows from volcanoes? Certainly a violent episode in any case. Thanks again!
Good questions. on the first question, I think Dr. Snelling is referring to the splitting of the ocean floor (and some other spots under the continents) and the magma bursting up. that, in turn, caused huge guysers of superheated steam to blast upward. One the second question, the ocean floors are composed of basalt. as ocean floors subducted under the continents, they were replaced with new ocean floor as the hot magma spread out and cooled.
Im sorry that I missed your live feed. I absolutely love these videos. Thank you for sharing the truth. I just hope and pray others will finally wake up. God bless you all.
I live in Smithville, Georgia and we have sand that was blown all the way from Africa in our neighborhood...... right across the street you can see a massive cloud of dust.
I live in The Netherlands, every summer there are one or two days when a thin layer of sand and dust, blown over from the Sahara (Africa) cover our cars.
Genesis 1;9 "And God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into *_one place,_* and let the dry land appear.” And it was so. (Emphasis added.) This describes the Earth with the one continent, "Pangaea." I am just now realizing this. It's all right there in Genesis 1. Cool.
Pangaea never existed! Make model of earth with sea bed contour without water, and weep over the lies kept for so long! Earth was smaller with all crust together and water under crust in its underground! Shallow lakes only on smaller earth and life forms gigantic due to weaker gravity! This is theory that is true! Think about it!!!

@Jeff somersby as two have already said he was talking about basalts. Basalts are the composition of the ocean floor, the solidifying of the magma core of the earth. There is the Center of the earth, Nickle and Iron very hot but under great pressure, solid, encased in a molten liquid mid-core of the earth that is molten magma and the outer earth cooled crust of the earth, the ocean floor being the cooled surface of the molten mid core and the Continents the lighter Granite crust of the continents.
I cannot thank you enough ♥️ I'm a back yard geologist. I came to the conclusion our timeline is wrong , it's comforting to hear, I'm not as crazy as some think I am. Thank you, for confirming my amateur research.
Nicely explained in simple ways. Events can either speed up or slow way down, depending on the right conditions present when such an event occurs. Yet, so many ecologists favor evolution to explain the supposed old age that their testing suggest, which in this video, the gentleman explains why it is unreliable. Regarding the landmass that existed before the flood, I believer there was much more land that sunk below the waves when the earth cracked up producing the tectonic plates. In some locations, it's been detected that areas of land had really sunk below the surface never again to see the open air.
@@oldcountryboy If you haven't watched and listened to this video, please at least take a look and listen to the first 8 minutes. As for a Japanese account, I am not aware of one but there is a Chinese account of a great flood.
Imagine , while Noah and his family was safe in the ark , God was reconfiguring the whole planet in a catastrophic way , so applied that to the great tribulation , while the whole planet will be in a catastrophic judgements , as Noah's family , the bride will be safe in heaven.
Please explain and also show material that shows the mountains that formed from the flood and those during creation.. to me, most mountains reveal jagged worn off tops..
Fascinating! I’m learning about that in college right now, in earth science course. Obviously, they never mentioned Pellegrini. They only talk about Wegener’s Continental drift hypothesis.
@Jeff somersby are you ok Jeff, you seem very angry that someone learned something they didn't previously know. Not all of us are born knowing everything.
I dreamed as a child knowing the truth. I believed conventional science because that is what I was taught. But seeing Bryce, Zion, Grand Stair case, Grand Canyon and even all along the california and northwest coast, the sideways, buckled and or swirly strata layers, the different rocks, fossils, this was made by something very catastrophic, not the trickel effect. Thank you for answering my question, God is so fascinating, and carbon dating is obsolete.
Ginger Ray, Carbon dating has some use but its limit must be understood. Carbon dating is useful for dating some relatively young things no more than a few thousand years. And, it has application for showing relative dating. Importantly, testing has shown ubiquitous, uniform levels of carbon 14 in diamonds, coal, and fossils. This means that those materials are not really millions of years old.
I would check out the book In the Beginning by Walt Brown. It’s available on Amazon. He’s a graduate of WestPoint and taught at the AirForce Academy. His understanding of the process is deeper and ties together a lot of loose ends. It can be viewed online as well which is how I found it.
Genesis 1;2,,,,,,,2 And the earth was without form, and void;,,,,,,,,A formless earth and this video does a good job of explaining how the watery deep burst forth at the flood and formed the mountains, valleys, hills, formations and continental plates.
I don't think there is much difference between this and Walt Brown's Hydroplate theory, or Dr. Grady McMurtry "The Waters Cleaved", but I might be missing something.
What a great explanation!! We just did Genesis 6,7,8 in our bible study and someone suggested that I read this. I don't believe it was a local flood (especially after seeing this video and re-reading the text and hearing the expert explain how the dating techniques can be wrong), but I would want to add that I have to respect Christians who say that the flood is not global and that they don't see the flood as literally described in Genesis 6. I do see it as literal and catastrophic, but I have to respect a different opinion than mine. Thanks so much!!
one of the major evidence denying a worldwide flood is --- plants. very few plants can survive underwater for months, and not all plants seed or could otherwise survive. there is no evidence of any genetic restriction of plant types that would result from global die-off of grasses and thousands of other plant species. For example cacti in arizona live only in a very specific climate and rarely seed.
1) ‘the river made the canyon’ never made much sense; it would take a lot more water than that tiny trickle to carve that hole. 2) the undulating hills visible to the NW from I-81N above Scranton resemble nothing so much as sand-heaps after draining a swimming pool.
During the drought of the 1930s, the unanchored soil turned to dust, which the prevailing winds blew away in huge clouds that sometimes blackened the sky. These choking billows of dust - named "black blizzards" or "black rollers" - traveled cross country, reaching as far as the East Coast and striking such cities as New York City and Washington, D.C.
THANK YOU!!!! I am teaching science in a Christian school and I have never had the flood explained so well in a way my students could understand it. God bless you sirs.
Absolutely fascinating! and makes so much more sense once we see the maps of the ocean floors. Plus we are starting to find lost cities under water. Now we know why.
Your series are amazing ! Love them . I have a question and I would like anyone to help me understand. When you say the seventh day the Sabbath and then say “in our case the Christian Sabbath” what does that mean ? When I read the Bible it says Sabbath , what you mean by Christian Sabbath ? It was changed to Sunday later on ? Can anyone help me when in the Bible does it say it because I want to understand when this change happen. Thanks !
there is no any whatsoever declaration of the bible that sabbath changed to sunday, actually it is written & called at some passages as the day of the lord, & there is no clear identification, mainly mentioned in acts & revelation. in the after 100 AD writings like the very first christian book called "didachi" meaning the teaching, is talking about keeping the "day of the lord" but no clear indication either he was talking about sabbath or sunday, but they were talking very clearly about something everyone who believes in jesus knows about, inwhich he doesn't need to identify, like in revelation when god met john study that part. the only thing that i have found regarding to sunday actually was in the 5th century when they say they changed the worship day of the christians into sunday as uniting with other major religion in rome @ that time, which for me i concluded that the day of the lord was actually the sabbath as it is in genesis, jesus didn't say to change it or even the apostles didn't change it, i think the formal churches inherited many things unreviewed, there also another jewish old writtings other than the old testemant talking about sabbath is a day to the emd of the time to be kept by the children of god called book of Enoch. ihope i helped a little to start from somewhere, i was just telling my opinion & conclusion after i was also searching & praying on this subject for 2 or more years. God bless you
zibirsky Jesus Christ is our sabbath. The Israelites were burdened under keeping the law so they needed that rest God made for them. But Jesus said he was the God of the sabbath. He reformed the rules to make it that anyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall find true rest that surpasses any rest of flesh a day could give you.
then why you sir take a day off? or do you work 7 days a week? & if you take a day off for your fleshly body in a fleshly day then why is it sunday? when it is not anywhere in the bible that anyone changed it. how is it burden when jesus said i am the lord of the sabbath, & that it was made for human.....? Jesus was explaining the giving of the sabbath & also lighing out that the pharisees & hypocrets are abusing the laws of god; the ten commandements & the mosaic law of sacrifice. so it is not meant to burden people as saying love thy neighbore is a burden (it is surely is a burden of love to keep in your heart for others), the burden came from the abuse of the religious leaders judging people by the mosaic law & the 10 commandments while they themselves couldn't commit that's why he was attacking their hipocracy. the sabbath rest of god jesus christ is not meant to break the commandements of god yehwa sir, there is many meanings of sabbath word in the bible than 7th day, especially when paul uses them search about it. he is talking about a rest for us with jesus for now & everyday till the eternity, as a continous feast for us, that's one of the other meanings of the sabbath.
Also Jesus came to fulfill the mosaic law by the ultimate & only sacrifice who is him Jesus Christ Son of God, he came to complete not to stop the direct laws written by god which is the 10 commandments.
@@emanlabib8204 @zibirsky In LExodus, I believe chapter twenty, it says God created the world in six days and rested on the seventh. The Israelis were to rest on the Seventh, this is called the Sabbath. In the New Testament Jesus died on Friday afternoon, rose early Sunday Morning. When Christians changed the Lord's day to Sunday is uncertain. I believe that some non-Christian sources indicates it was in the late first to early second century, that would would be between 70 AD to maybe 130 to 150 AD. A Roman official wrote a letter mentioning the Christians worshipped on the first morning of the week. There seems to be nothing that indicates any official time for the change. In seminary, a Korean classmate held a ministry position in a local Korean church. That church had worship meetings seven days a week!
So, during the flood and the expansion of the continents did the diameter of the earth increase? If so, how did this change the earth's angular momentum? Did this result in the period of earth's annual rotation change fro 360 days to 364.4... days? How did this change the earth's precession and wobble? How did this change affect the earth's orbit around the sun? How did it change the gravitational interaction with the moon? Why is the moon moving away from the earth and not coming closer? So many questions are still unanswered.
Great Information Dr Snelling. I find this fascinating. I live in southern California just several miles west of the San jacinto Mountains. Outside the city there are quite a few small mountains of piles of huge rounded rocks stuck in hard ground. I use to think why did God leave these giant piles of massive rocks here. I never thought they are debri piles left from when the water receded. The rocks all have rounded corners like how river rocks turn round and smooth.
@@bigcorky4687 I understand your meaning bt if you look at the U.S today with trans ppl etc you cant help bt think they deserved it plus there are laws and if you break the law you pay a price , we are destroying the planet right now , so maybe we will pay a price too ?

It was a global crustal slip, a physical pole shift. Where the oceans continue on the path of rotation overtaking the land. As well as incredibly strong winds as the atmosphere continues in that direction as well. There is definitely massive amounts of upheaval and rebound as well as sinking of land masses.
Sir my full respect !!! You’ve explained all that perfectly and it makes a lot of sense. Unlike those people that say we came from monkeys and Big Bang and all that stuff
That division seems to refer to the division of humanity, not the continents. It says the language of the earth ws one and the Lord confused their language and the earth was divided.
If God meant that the people of the Earth were divided in the days of Peleg, I think He would have said so. He was clear enough in his language in describing what happened when He confused the speech at the Tower of Babel.
@scott matthew You didn't look into the original hebrew which is available to you e.g. via the free e-sword app. It's not an informed statement you made. You merely took your English Bible.
This is my favorite "unpacking" video of, and in my opinion was where the original IGH movie left me unsatisfied, the geology of the flood. Thank you, AIG, for all your hard work and in the name of the true Messiah bless you! I do have a request: Could you please cover the Hawaiian Island chain during the catastrophic plate tectonics, and unpack why the pacific plate seemed to shift directions causing the eroded, old islands in the chain (now underwater sea mounts) shoot north toward what is today Kamchakta, Russia? My brain has officially fizzled out trying to understand this under the flood paradigm.
I always believed that somewhere between the bible and science there is a narrow point they can come along and explain together the mysteries of the past and discoveries of tomorrow . It all made sense to me as it was explained here .
George Isaak It was meant to. Snelling and his straight man are desperately trying to make creationism look scientific. They fail. Badly. Anyone with a background in geology knows this. (I am but a retired science teacher but I know this from personal experience). They know it too, but they are relying on the lack of scientific education of their target audience. They want you to buy their videos. Science and mainstream religion can (just about) co-exist, but creationism is at heart totally anti-science. That's ALL science, not just biology and earth science, coz it ain't a case of pick n mix. YECs must insist that both deep time and evolution are wrong. They are not. Both have survived attack from those best equipped to challenge them - other scientists. The very few YEC scientists know this, live with the cognitive dissonance (somehow!), and make a living out of preaching to the choir. If you had been born into a YEC culture and grown up with it, investing both time and money into it, how consoling and confirming these videos are! Look! You don't need to be scared of the science bogeyman who wants to tear down everything we hold dear! Look! We can make science say what we want it to say, so cheer up! They are snake oil salesmen, but pretty slick ones.
@@Nehner School teachers couldn't learn OR School teachers couldn't be taught. So, it is YOU that is wrong. You clearly flunked elementary Grammar, and probably other subjects as well. Hence both your blanket condemnation of the teaching profession and your misplaced confidence in your own ability. Google: "Dunning Kruger Effect", if that's not too difficult for you.
So what caused the huge canyons off the continental shelf of every continent? You can see these on google earth, what caused them was it a flood returning to the lowlands?
Dear Doctor Andrew Snelling, it's my pleasure to salute you for your sound proven, sober, and clear explanation of the truth in science, according to the facts known today. I salute your courageous humility, witnessing without being ashamed Of God's Holy City, The Bible, and The Word Of God Eternally In The Person Of Jesus Christ, God Almighty's Begotten Son, men's brother, and savior!
Love your videos, faith and intelligence helping this old frustrated paleontologist geologist understand my own life long observations in awe and wonder of the truth! The mechanism to destroy the wicked, the nephilim, the dinosaurs and all plant life on this planet and start fresh was God's Hand!
QUESTION: IF the entire Grand Canyon section was formed in The Flood in a few months, why are the strata segregated into different rock types, and why are the fossil remains in each different. Shouldn't there be fossils of dead wicked people, camels, goats and sheep, fossilized palm trees, signs from the hootchy parlors present in Noah's town, wrecked farm carts? What do we see? Some units are NOT fossiliferous (the Vishnu and the granite). The Bible (I'm guessing) would say this is the land made in the first few days of Creation, made before life existed. The Tapeats (per these guys) marks the base of the flood. It is sparsely fossiliferous, with rare trilobite and brachiopod remains, but no wicked guys nor camels (or Marlboro buds, even). Above the Tapeats is shale and limestone, not a chaotic mix of oceanic sediment dumped on the land from the Deeps. There are NO camels or wicked dead guys in these strata either. The Grand Canyon WAS carved out by the Colorado. The rapids are NOT from local flash floods, but because of different rock types forming resistant ledges. The river cuts down because the land is being uplifted (but slowly, not catastrophically). Open your mind.
It has already been determined that an ice dam of immense size, from the not-so-distant ice age melt, let loose and quickly cut the canyon. One heck of a grinder tsunami. Look up what a mega-sequence is, look up how many have gone over the North American Continent. Now look up how many of the same sequence spread over to other continents. Look up MT ST Helens eruption of 1980's. A few years later ,look at the giant canyons that were cut IN ONE SEASON of rains and flooding, THROUGH SOLID ROCK. When you have a tsunami go across land, what sinks to the bottom first as the water slows???? YOU said it " rare trilobite and brachiopod" Heavy SHELLED stuff. That is what you see at the lower fossil layers, correct? Animals dont sink until the water really slows and settles. Then you have fossil grave yards of ground up critters all mixed together. LOOK UP Hanson Bone bed for example. A fossil layer that covers THREE STATES and contains sea and land creature fossils with few complete fossils. How do you explain tall, vertical tree fossils that extend through multiple layers of coal seams that are 20 to 30 ft thick, EACH? NOT MILLIONS OF YEARS! Look up Spirit Lake after the MT ST HELENS eruption. 45 yrs later is evidence of coal being formed! OPEN YOUR MIND and keep observing and searching. You are missing so much!
Outstanding! Thank you for rising above convention, taking God’s clues and written evidence to get to the Truth. The Truth will set you free. Kudos to all involved in threading this together, to those passionate scientists who bridge the research and Faith in such a convincing way. Adequate words fall short for me to express how in awe I find myself surrounded with great people who resist the tendency for pride to not derail them in their discoveries and to hold fast with God’s enduring Truth to be told.
In my walk with the Lord, God said to me, "If you don't believe the BEGINNING, you won't believe anything else in the Bible". As Christians it is important for us to believe that "in the beginning God created". Our God is absolutely amazing and he is much wiser than us. I believe God's word and I'm telling you it has surely made a difference in my life. Amen
All that you mentioned is absolutely reasonable on a motionless Earth (geocentric). As soon as you add the heliocentric Perspective into it, it falls apart into Pieces like a Domino. Water always seeks its Level and cannot be bent. In the heliocentric Modell all Water would be gathered at the Equator Region only.
There is a very basic and glaring error in these interpretations. All of the volcanic deposits mentioned at the beginning of this video (ie Deccan Traps and Siberian Traps) are composed of basalt. All eruptions involving basalt are effusive, not explosive. That is, basaltic eruptions are not catastrophic, but this video asserts that they are. This is not controversial and it is taught in introductory geology classes. Basalt is also the main component of oceanic crust, and mid oceanic ridges never experience explosive eruptions. The chemistry of basalt simply does not allow for explosive eruptions. Those only happens when crust containing more volatiles is involved in the equation.
Lisle Tenderfoot - He emphasises the rate and scale of eruptions. You seem to be ignoring this. How can you assume all effusive eruptions are not catastrophic?
@michael7dee Thanks for pushing me to define how I use "catastrophic", it's important for this dialogue. The way that I'm using it here is the way in which it seems the guys in the video are, which is quick, and explosively energetic. A literal interpretation of the flood narrative, and what these guys propose necessitates that "catastrophic" contain connotations of quickness. Basalt has a mafic mineral composition, lacking the volatiles to produce explosive eruptions. This is not indoctrination, it is very basic, verifiable geology. The cascade volcanoes in the Pacific Northwest are not basaltic, that's why they undergo explosive eruptions. Those volcanoes have dioritic/andesitic material dewatering deep underneath, which causes partial crust melting and volatile release, which results in explosive eruptions. The flow basalt deposits in the inland PNW predate the current assemblage of cascade volcanoes.
These were not necessarily like the modern eruptions. There may have been both types of actions. Perhaps in different areas, and perhaps in slightly different times in the sequence.
@@lisletenderfoot9216 - There are fine-grained basalt deposits on the surface of every continent. The critical depth requirement for formation of non-vesicular basalt is around 9800 feet of ocean water. Thus, all of those non-vesicular basalt deposits were formed while the surfaces of every continent were under at least 9800 feet of water. Their very existence is empirical evidence of a global flood. The same holds true for lunar maria, which supports the idea that the vast majority of lunar craters are from hydro-volcanic eruptions rather than meteorite impacts.
There is a fellow brother, sadly, I’ve recently got into, yet again, a debate with, with regards to the Word Of God, the literal interpretation of the Genesis creation account and the effects of the flood. He is stuck on the billions of years of earth theory and believes dinosaurs existing millions of years before man. He doesn’t realise the effect his beliefs have on the New Testament. But, I’ve met a number of professing Christian’s who poo poo the Genesis creation account along with the flood and hold a mix of a world view! I love this documentary in its full. Scientists who stand by, firstly, on the Word of God and then their studies bring to life the Word of God. It confirms the word of God, literally!
Jesus has very little to say about the geologic erosive effects of "the Flood" and plate tectonics. He is much more concerned about the erosive effects of false teachings on the Mind of his Brethren. He does say however that faith in tiny amounts can literally move mountains. And He who cannot lie also said not to judge according to the appearance. Without rocks to judge according to the appearance, all geolgists, be they evolutionists or creationists would be up the old proverbial "Creek" without a paddle! Jesus, as a true prophet, not a scientist, avers, that the 🌎 the whole ball of wax , air, land, water and 🔥 will "cataclysmically", completely disappear and vanish in a flash. Hoyt Axton, singer , songwriter wrote: "I'm goin' to Heaven in a flash of fire 🔥, with or without you." My view leaves none behind, Praise GOD! We Love and forgive All people everywhere!
Thank you sooo much for this video! An excellent presentation and explanation. I still have questions. If all but Noah and his family were destroyed, how do we have the other cultures around the world? My assumption according to the bible narrative, is that they all are offspring of Noah and his family. Is this assumption correct? Also, if only the animals/creatures taken on the ark survived, and the ancestral animals/creatures of all animals/creatures on earth now were literally on the ark, this means that animals such as the kangaroo, koala and platypus for examples, must have been on the ark too. Is this assumption of the bible narrative correct? I find this very hard to believe, and if someone can provide a plausible explanation I would be most grateful. Thank you in advance!
On the first question, the Bible explains the worldwide cultures and 'races' in Genesis chapter 10. There, you can see about 70 family groups that spread out over the earth and multiplied into the cultures we see today.

This is the best explanation I've ever heard about plate tectonics.
My only question is what became of the fountains of lava in the deep what particular type of rock was formed and how exactly did it settle. U know what I mean he doesn't explain.
@Michel Ferreira Great reply. This video explains so much ☺️
Continental sprint sounds more like ‘continental gallop with a ( ‘scuse the expression) Chinese fire drill!
@@jaykirch1376 basalts?
Basalt. And they became islands, mid ocean ridges and Archipelegos. As far as the Continental fountains of water, they are what we call modern day impact craters. Those are actually extinct ancient geysers. @@jaykirch1376
I have seen the Grand Canyon and this just makes so much more sense how it was formed! Thank you!
Exactly. This explains so much. The fossil record too and how so many animals were quickly fossilized before decay
When you look at an overview of the grand canyon there is no way those rock layers were layed down over millions of years.If they were millions of years old? Where are the rooting structures between the layers? Where is the evidence of burrowing animals or insects? There are none. Because there was never any time to root or bioturbate. Those layers were laid down in a short period of time. Like the period of a worldwide catastrophic flood.
This stuff blew my mind. God saved me 5 years ago. But I have yet to have the flood explained to me like it was in this video. Absolutely mind blowing.
It's a shame it's all garbage pseudo science
@@ozowen So you watched it all I assume? And you come away with the thought that all these accomplished scientist are just making it all up? You're not going to correct any of it just say it's garbage? What a flat out weak stance and typical of someone that has been brainwashed their entire life (like I was) I pray God opens your heart and wakes you uo.
@@AyeTeeJay91
If catastrophic plate tectonics were in any way involved with the supposed flood of Noah, explain how any sedimentary layers laid down in that event could remain stable and clearly divided. The kind of tectonic movement proposed here means massive upheavals caused by huge volumes of water- superheated mind you, colliding in tsunamis of impossible proportions. The vortexes created could leave no recently laid (nor likely any older layers too) intact.
There should be zero dry layers,zero clear sedimentary layers, zero aerial layers, zero stable varve laminae. The collisions would have been, must have been massive. The atmosphere would have superheated.
All in a single year. Spread over a decade it still would have been such that no geo layers like the ones we do have would be anywhere for that period.
How am I supposed to take this seriously?
@@ozowen So you're saying how are you supposed to take this seriously. But let me guess.. You believe in evoloution? And you believe in millions of years? Yet there is not 1 example of a change of kind in the evolutionary process. All of the fossils and data we have gatherd but cant find 1 example of a mid procees evolved speciaes or 1 example in modern time of a species changing kinds.. And I'm supposed to take that seriously?
@@AyeTeeJay91
1) "Kind" is not a scientific term. However, we have observed speciation. (ie: a new species form)
2) Transitional forms are NEVER half formed. Never.
3) We have hundreds of thousands of transitional forms.
Andrew is incredible; his knowledge, his passion and his descriptive presenting is mind blowing.
I watch these videos and remember the questions I have had throughout my life while eagerly internalizing conventional earth science, evolution, anthropology, history, astronomy, etc. Many things just sounded improbable but I silently swallowed what I was fed because everybody else seemed to.
Catastrophic earth history is far more palpable than 5 billion year earth history. Rediscovering my faith has led to a catastrophic paradigm shift in my thinking about everything. I'm glad that I have always been interested in and followed science and history as an amateur because I'm not just blindly believing, but finally making an informed decision, and realizing we've been fooled.
Bottom line, a young earth kills evolution and they just can't allow that. If the news is fake, imagine the history.
A few thousand animal species turning into millions as soon as they stepped off the ark? I guess you believe in hyper evolution.
@@davidgardner863 You have confused Kinds with Species.
Man has developed different species of dogs and horses over the years, from kinds, but we have never came up with a new KIND of animal. They are still dogs or horses. It's just like the mule, they are hybrids of the horse kind.
There are hundreds of. Species of Dogs, but all still the Dog KIND...
The Chihuahua a species... The Great Dane a species... both DOGS.
@@Pfrazier43 ,You haven’t a clue what you’re talking about. You don’t know the difference between breeds and species. All dogs are breeds of the same species. Kinds is a meaningless word in the biblical sense. Creationists have no explanation of how a few thousand species before the mythical flood became millions of species afterward. Why don’t you get a little educated before spewing absurd nonsense.
Exactly
@davidgardner863 There are scientists who can explain this, so don't dismiss this out of hand. Jonathan Sarfati is one, & there are others working for Creation Ministries International amongst other organisations. But if your mind is made up, then don't bother with it. Peace to you.

Must admit it might be fun. Just amazes me that Snelling can cherry pick actual science and transform it into fiction.
Dr. Snelling is a wonderful person and geologist. Outstanding scientist. I traveled the GC with him for 9 days. Fantastic trip.
I love this channel. These are extremely intelligent people, who are excited about what they do, and are faithful to the word of the Bible, as fact. That is so foreign to any previous science, that I can't get enough. For the first time, it sounds like truth. Plausible, verifiable truth. And a great host, btw. I look forward to seeing these notifications.
Agree 100% Dan.
Dan Dangerous Please Google "confirmation bias"
It sounds like proof ... emphasis on SOUNDS. You know it's not the same as actual proof right?! Nothing in this video is. Just go read a non religious "science" book instead of a book full of fairytale and magic.
Dan Dangerous I have always questioned science as a child being drug to church, now I am a total believer, Jesus rose up into the heaven with over five hundred witnesses, rises from the dead, floats into heaven, fulfills prophecy from hundreds and even thousands of years foretold in the Bible and ancient Jewish scripture! Try reading, (here is one of many ) Isaiah chapter 52+53 , messianic prophecy starts 2/3 into chapter 52, and through 53 explaining in past tense a future event in detail (650 years before it happens ! Wow! ,blows my mind every time I read it, along with the Christmas story in Luke you know that Charlie brown one, and many other prophecies were fulfilled to prove that Jesus was the one sent from God half God half man born in flesh of Gods spirit to a woman who was a virgin. Wow!
@@paulschwarz406 Hi. Did you ever wonder why folk like you are not more common? I mean folk who take things literally and without question.
Well, one reason is that most people also questioned science when they were kids but they found its answers made more sense than the stories they had previously accepted from grownups that they quite naturally trusted - parents and pastors. Stories like Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, but also stories like virgins giving birth. "Answers" like "Ah, but with God all things are possible" or "You'll understand when you are older" are seen by most folk as not being answers.. Most folk grow up and start thinking for themselves.
Most people read the Suffering Servant and A Virgin will conceive sections of Isaiah and look at the context. Isaiah is addressing an appeal from a worried King Ahaz and reassures him that in a few years time the problem with his neighbors will have vanished. The text of Isaiah clearly states that a maiden HAS conceived. It is only in Matthew that we hear she was a virgin and that her pregnancy would be 700 odd years in the future.
Isn't that strange? Well not really, not when there are over a dozen other examples of the author of Matthew quote mining the Hebrew scriptures for "prophecies" foretelling Jesus. Oh yes, things are often more complicated than a superficial reading might suggest.
This simply never gets old or boring. Thank you so much for keeping it available . Prayerfully it will change the lives of people, making them hungry for the truth. Thank you!!
Imagine what it must have been like for those who did not believe Noah's warnings (like today w/many mocking GOD'S Word). As soon as GOD shut the door of "The Ark" the ground beneath their feet began to be torn apart as the "fountains of the deep" erupted. They went from having a good time doing evil to total terror knowing at that moment what they mocked was coming to pass & there was no escape. God gave them 120 yrs to repent in Noah's day. This time GOD has given the world 2000 yrs. & because of Jesus Christ & Him crucified more than 8 people will be saved. This time the judgement will be by fire. GOD'S Word can not be broken. AMEN.
"As in the days of Noah..."
@@freeagent8604 ditto, . Imagine the amount of sickness, evil and corruption.
If we really think about it, the scenario is horrific. No wonder we are told to warn of the wrath to come. Yet, as the people were in Noah's time, we see men rejecting God's warnings and ridiculing His people.
As it was in Noah's day, so it is now. Even so, come quickly Lord.
@James Was Here Agreed. He's basically saying that current theories have gaps (like anything) so therefore his god theory makes more sense. Might as well believe that people live to 950 years old. Oh wait...
That moment wouldve been very scary
They say Einstein was a genius but this guy explaining all this is the true genius he’s not trying to figure things out he’s just trying to make sense of what happened
Fascinating video. Thanks for sharing these.
You just wonder what Noah's reaction was when God opened the door. He must have been blown away by when he saw. Too bad there weren't a couple of chapters in Genesis of his reactions. It would have been interesting. Can't wait to ask him about it in Heaven, if that's something God cares to share with us there.
Noah's reply is recorded in Genesis. He planted a vineyard, made wine, and got drunk. Considering how devastated the earth was post-flood compared to pre-flood it is hard to blame him.
@@michaelpfister1283 Noah had a sinful nature like all human beings. Apparently, he wasn't as evil as the rest of the world.
Especially when he saw God's huge holy member!

Mount Saint Joan volcanic explosion went all the way across the East Coast to Toledo Ohio and then some. I remember it like it was yesterdayLonger Winter's shorter summers. Winter was much colder, A fruits and vegetables that gardeners and farmers would grow was 32 sometimes 14 times the size of a normal fruit or vegetable, Volcano ash was high in nutrients and minerals, vitamins For all Plant life.
I've been looking forward to this video. You didn't disappoint! I do have a few questions. First of all, Dr. Snelling said something that made me think he thought that the 'fountains of the deep' referred primarily to volcanoes. I had always pictured that as geysers of water.
Also, he said the ocean floors were all basalt. Was that just melting of the rock from rapid tectonic plate motion? Or was there flows from volcanoes?
Certainly a violent episode in any case.
Thanks again!
Good questions. on the first question, I think Dr. Snelling is referring to the splitting of the ocean floor (and some other spots under the continents) and the magma bursting up. that, in turn, caused huge guysers of superheated steam to blast upward. One the second question, the ocean floors are composed of basalt. as ocean floors subducted under the continents, they were replaced with new ocean floor as the hot magma spread out and cooled.
Im sorry that I missed your live feed. I absolutely love these videos. Thank you for sharing the truth. I just hope and pray others will finally wake up.
God bless you all.

I live in Smithville, Georgia and we have sand that was blown all the way from Africa in our neighborhood...... right across the street you can see a massive cloud of dust.
Steve Whalley I’ll send it your way!
I live in The Netherlands, every summer there are one or two days when a thin layer of sand and dust, blown over from the Sahara (Africa) cover our cars.
Alrighty then. Almost like Africa exist on the same planet as Georgia. I’m pretty sure Georgians are not on board with that.
Genesis 1;9 "And God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into *_one place,_* and let the dry land appear.” And it was so. (Emphasis added.)
This describes the Earth with the one continent, "Pangaea." I am just now realizing this. It's all right there in Genesis 1. Cool.
Pangaea never existed! Make model of earth with sea bed contour without water, and weep over the lies kept for so long! Earth was smaller with all crust together and water under crust in its underground! Shallow lakes only on smaller earth and life forms gigantic due to weaker gravity!

basalts
@Jeff somersby as two have already said he was talking about basalts. Basalts are the composition of the ocean floor, the solidifying of the magma core of the earth. There is the Center of the earth, Nickle and Iron very hot but under great pressure, solid, encased in a molten liquid mid-core of the earth that is molten magma and the outer earth cooled crust of the earth, the ocean floor being the cooled surface of the molten mid core and the Continents the lighter Granite crust of the continents.

Does anyone know the name of that cinder volcano they are doing the interview on
Nicely explained in simple ways. Events can either speed up or slow way down, depending on the right conditions present when such an event occurs. Yet, so many ecologists favor evolution to explain the supposed old age that their testing suggest, which in this video, the gentleman explains why it is unreliable. Regarding the landmass that existed before the flood, I believer there was much more land that sunk below the waves when the earth cracked up producing the tectonic plates. In some locations, it's been detected that areas of land had really sunk below the surface never again to see the open air.

I've heard all this, but this video gives a concise, powerful explanation for the mechanics of the Flood.
Excellent and correct
I've always wondered how the rivers formed.
@Jeff somersby are you ok Jeff, you seem very angry that someone learned something they didn't previously know. Not all of us are born knowing everything.
I dreamed as a child knowing the truth. I believed conventional science because that is what I was taught. But seeing Bryce, Zion, Grand Stair case, Grand Canyon and even all along the california and northwest coast, the sideways, buckled and or swirly strata layers, the different rocks, fossils, this was made by something very catastrophic, not the trickel effect. Thank you for answering my question, God is so fascinating, and carbon dating is obsolete.
Ginger Ray, Carbon dating has some use but its limit must be understood. Carbon dating is useful for dating some relatively young things no more than a few thousand years. And, it has application for showing relative dating. Importantly, testing has shown ubiquitous, uniform levels of carbon 14 in diamonds, coal, and fossils. This means that those materials are not really millions of years old.
I would check out the book In the Beginning by Walt Brown. It’s available on Amazon. He’s a graduate of WestPoint and taught at the AirForce Academy. His understanding of the process is deeper and ties together a lot of loose ends. It can be viewed online as well which is how I found it.
Are they producing creationists there now?
Yes!
Genesis 1;2,,,,,,,2 And the earth was without form, and void;,,,,,,,,A formless earth and this video does a good job of explaining how the watery deep burst forth at the flood and formed the mountains, valleys, hills, formations and continental plates.
Dr. Snelling is, in my opinion, one of the greatest geologists in the world.
Walt Brown Hydroplate theory is really good and explains the flood in great detail
I don't think there is much difference between this and Walt Brown's Hydroplate theory, or Dr. Grady McMurtry "The Waters Cleaved", but I might be missing something.
What a great explanation!! We just did Genesis 6,7,8 in our bible study and someone suggested that I read this. I don't believe it was a local flood (especially after seeing this video and re-reading the text and hearing the expert explain how the dating techniques can be wrong), but I would want to add that I have to respect Christians who say that the flood is not global and that they don't see the flood as literally described in Genesis 6. I do see it as literal and catastrophic, but I have to respect a different opinion than mine. Thanks so much!!
one of the major evidence denying a worldwide flood is --- plants. very few plants can survive underwater for months, and not all plants seed or could otherwise survive. there is no evidence of any genetic restriction of plant types that would result from global die-off of grasses and thousands of other plant species. For example cacti in arizona live only in a very specific climate and rarely seed.
On the coast of Chile you can see in the strata where the beach was thrust up 60' in 1 seismic event. SURF"S UP !!
1) ‘the river made the canyon’ never made much sense; it would take a lot more water than that tiny trickle to carve that hole.
2) the undulating hills visible to the NW from I-81N above Scranton resemble nothing so much as sand-heaps after draining a swimming pool.
During the drought of the 1930s, the unanchored soil turned to dust, which the prevailing winds blew away in huge clouds that sometimes blackened the sky. These choking billows of dust - named "black blizzards" or "black rollers" - traveled cross country, reaching as far as the East Coast and striking such cities as New York City and Washington, D.C.
THANK YOU!!!! I am teaching science in a Christian school and I have never had the flood explained so well in a way my students could understand it. God bless you sirs.
Plus has been a bunch of recent studies that fossilization does not take as long as they thought previously or petrification
Love it!
when was the bonneville flood? did it occur at the end of the the great flood?
Absolutely fascinating! and makes so much more sense once we see the maps of the ocean floors. Plus we are starting to find lost cities under water. Now we know why.
Your series are amazing ! Love them . I have a question and I would like anyone to help me understand. When you say the seventh day the Sabbath and then say “in our case the Christian Sabbath” what does that mean ? When I read the Bible it says Sabbath , what you mean by Christian Sabbath ? It was changed to Sunday later on ? Can anyone help me when in the Bible does it say it because I want to understand when this change happen. Thanks !
there is no any whatsoever declaration of the bible that sabbath changed to sunday, actually it is written & called at some passages as the day of the lord, & there is no clear identification, mainly mentioned in acts & revelation. in the after 100 AD writings like the very first christian book called "didachi" meaning the teaching, is talking about keeping the "day of the lord" but no clear indication either he was talking about sabbath or sunday, but they were talking very clearly about something everyone who believes in jesus knows about, inwhich he doesn't need to identify, like in revelation when god met john study that part.
the only thing that i have found regarding to sunday actually was in the 5th century when they say they changed the worship day of the christians into sunday as uniting with other major religion in rome @ that time, which for me i concluded that the day of the lord was actually the sabbath as it is in genesis, jesus didn't say to change it or even the apostles didn't change it, i think the formal churches inherited many things unreviewed, there also another jewish old writtings other than the old testemant talking about sabbath is a day to the emd of the time to be kept by the children of god called book of Enoch.
ihope i helped a little to start from somewhere, i was just telling my opinion & conclusion after i was also searching & praying on this subject for 2 or more years.
God bless you
zibirsky Jesus Christ is our sabbath. The Israelites were burdened under keeping the law so they needed that rest God made for them. But Jesus said he was the God of the sabbath. He reformed the rules to make it that anyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall find true rest that surpasses any rest of flesh a day could give you.
then why you sir take a day off? or do you work 7 days a week? & if you take a day off for your fleshly body in a fleshly day then why is it sunday? when it is not anywhere in the bible that anyone changed it.
how is it burden when jesus said i am the lord of the sabbath, & that it was made for human.....?
Jesus was explaining the giving of the sabbath & also lighing out that the pharisees & hypocrets are abusing the laws of god; the ten commandements & the mosaic law of sacrifice.
so it is not meant to burden people as saying love thy neighbore is a burden (it is surely is a burden of love to keep in your heart for others), the burden came from the abuse of the religious leaders judging people by the mosaic law & the 10 commandments while they themselves couldn't commit that's why he was attacking their hipocracy.
the sabbath rest of god jesus christ is not meant to break the commandements of god yehwa sir, there is many meanings of sabbath word in the bible than 7th day, especially when paul uses them search about it.
he is talking about a rest for us with jesus for now & everyday till the eternity, as a continous feast for us, that's one of the other meanings of the sabbath.
Also Jesus came to fulfill the mosaic law by the ultimate & only sacrifice who is him Jesus Christ Son of God, he came to complete not to stop the direct laws written by god which is the 10 commandments.
@@emanlabib8204 @zibirsky In LExodus, I believe chapter twenty, it says God created the world in six days and rested on the seventh. The Israelis were to rest on the Seventh, this is called the Sabbath. In the New Testament Jesus died on Friday afternoon, rose early Sunday Morning. When Christians changed the Lord's day to Sunday is uncertain. I believe that some non-Christian sources indicates it was in the late first to early second century, that would would be between 70 AD to maybe 130 to 150 AD. A Roman official wrote a letter mentioning the Christians worshipped on the first morning of the week. There seems to be nothing that indicates any official time for the change. In seminary, a Korean classmate held a ministry position in a local Korean church. That church had worship meetings seven days a week!
Brilliant, it all makes sense now.
I always thought the grand canyon was formed from massive glacier melting, but his theory on world flooding makes more sense.
until you study geology...
What about the fluctuations in earth’s magnetic field that are recorded in the slowly (mm/year) spreading of the ocean floor.
Olá!! Mais alguém do Brasil? 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
So, during the flood and the expansion of the continents did the diameter of the earth increase? If so, how did this change the earth's angular momentum? Did this result in the period of earth's annual rotation change fro 360 days to 364.4... days? How did this change the earth's precession and wobble? How did this change affect the earth's orbit around the sun? How did it change the gravitational interaction with the moon? Why is the moon moving away from the earth and not coming closer? So many questions are still unanswered.
Christian John acording to hydroplate theory the earth shrinked during the flood so its rotation speed increased from 360 to 365 days per year
I like some of this but other parts is a very long stretch. And I do believe in catastrophic plate movement.
Would it be a theory and safe to say that during the flood the entire pacific plate buckled and collapsed in on itself, hence the ring of fire?
It's possible...certainly a theory ...interesting .
Grace and peace to you

The pacific northwest plate is slipping now.
No, that would not account for the new ocean floor.
More logical than the Noah flood story.

That was an enormous amount of ocean water into the atmosphere

Great Information Dr Snelling. I find this fascinating. I live in southern California just several miles west of the San jacinto Mountains. Outside the city there are quite a few small mountains of piles of huge rounded rocks stuck in hard ground. I use to think why did God leave these giant piles of massive rocks here. I never thought they are debri piles left from when the water receded. The rocks all have rounded corners like how river rocks turn round and smooth.
Great. The truth will set us free.
Wow! The sea conditions must have been unbelievably violent, good job Noah had a big wooden boat to ride out the storm for a year, amazing!!
My thinking too , plus a lot of trees would have been on top of the water too bt God knew what was going to happen so maybe God kept Noah safe ?
@@SM-A405FN after drowning millions of innocent women and children it was so kind of God to keep Noahs big wooden submarine afloat don't you think ?
@@bigcorky4687 I understand your meaning bt if you look at the U.S today with trans ppl etc you cant help bt think they deserved it plus there are laws and if you break the law you pay a price , we are destroying the planet right now , so maybe we will pay a price too ?
@@SM-A405FN so in Noahs days all those innocent women and children deserved to die for breaking some laws ? Not to mention billions of other living creatures that perished?
@@bigcorky4687 I didnt make the laws lol plus Noah had 2 of all life so its says , so nothing was totally destroyed , I cant get away from giant redwoods and bamboo , bamboo is basically grass and all the trees in the coal seams are hollow and all coal seams are the same age , so where did the redwoods come from and the bamboo only in 1 area of the planet like the redwoods , lots of questions and only now do I understand the flood theory and it works very well to my mind bt for the flood to last a year , questions Noah's are as far as food goes bt it says God put the animals to sleep , so who knows , whether ppl and animals had to die you can ask God !
It was a global crustal slip, a physical pole shift. Where the oceans continue on the path of rotation overtaking the land. As well as incredibly strong winds as the atmosphere continues in that direction as well. There is definitely massive amounts of upheaval and rebound as well as sinking of land masses.
Sir my full respect !!! You’ve explained all that perfectly and it makes a lot of sense. Unlike those people that say we came from monkeys and Big Bang and all that stuff
Beautiful
So how do you explain the other supercontinents prior to Pangea?
According to Genesis Chapter 10:25 and 1Chronicles 1:19 it was during the time of Peleg that the Earth was divided 💯💕
That division seems to refer to the division of humanity, not the continents. It says the language of the earth ws one and the Lord confused their language and the earth was divided.
If God meant that the people of the Earth were divided in the days of Peleg, I think He would have said so. He was clear enough in his language in describing what happened when He confused the speech at the Tower of Babel.
@scott matthew You didn't look into the original hebrew which is available to you e.g. via the free e-sword app.
It's not an informed statement you made. You merely took your English Bible.
@@jackreisewitz7219 Did you look into the original hebrew?
fascination!!!
What about Dr. Walt Brown, PhD's idea of a hydro-plate?
This is my favorite "unpacking" video of, and in my opinion was where the original IGH movie left me unsatisfied, the geology of the flood. Thank you, AIG, for all your hard work and in the name of the true Messiah bless you!
I do have a request: Could you please cover the Hawaiian Island chain during the catastrophic plate tectonics, and unpack why the pacific plate seemed to shift directions causing the eroded, old islands in the chain (now underwater sea mounts) shoot north toward what is today Kamchakta, Russia? My brain has officially fizzled out trying to understand this under the flood paradigm.
I believe more in Dr. Walt Brown's Hydroplate Theory.
Agreed, I have Dr. Browns Book in my hand as I am writing.
I always believed that somewhere between the bible and science there is a narrow point they can come along and explain together the mysteries of the past and discoveries of tomorrow . It all made sense to me as it was explained here .
George Isaak It was meant to. Snelling and his straight man are desperately trying to make creationism look scientific. They fail. Badly. Anyone with a background in geology knows this. (I am but a retired science teacher but I know this from personal experience).
They know it too, but they are relying on the lack of scientific education of their target audience. They want you to buy their videos.
Science and mainstream religion can (just about) co-exist, but creationism is at heart totally anti-science. That's ALL science, not just biology and earth science, coz it ain't a case of pick n mix. YECs must insist that both deep time and evolution are wrong. They are not. Both have survived attack from those best equipped to challenge them - other scientists. The very few YEC scientists know this, live with the cognitive dissonance (somehow!), and make a living out of preaching to the choir.
If you had been born into a YEC culture and grown up with it, investing both time and money into it, how consoling and confirming these videos are! Look! You don't need to be scared of the science bogeyman who wants to tear down everything we hold dear! Look! We can make science say what we want it to say, so cheer up! They are snake oil salesmen, but pretty slick ones.
@@Nehner School teachers couldn't learn OR School teachers couldn't be taught. So, it is YOU that is wrong. You clearly flunked elementary Grammar, and probably other subjects as well. Hence both your blanket condemnation of the teaching profession and your misplaced confidence in your own ability. Google: "Dunning Kruger Effect", if that's not too difficult for you.
@@Nehner Well, doesn't that just make the point. Dunning Kruger Rules OK!
I’d really like to know his opinion of the crater that mainstream science says caused the extinction of the dinosaurs. When did it strike?
Is the ancient vulcanism of Scotland part of the same flood catastrophe?
Yes.
Xandra No.
How was oil formed? Similar to coal?
We've been taught a lie, this however, is more about the truth. The truth of the past, the present and the future.
Science....... Trying to explain the truth of our physical world..... Awesome 👍
This is not science
So what caused the huge canyons off the continental shelf of every continent? You can see these on google earth, what caused them was it a flood returning to the lowlands?
Dear Doctor Andrew Snelling, it's my pleasure to salute you for your sound proven, sober, and clear explanation of the truth in science, according to the facts known today. I salute your courageous humility, witnessing without being ashamed Of God's Holy City, The Bible, and The Word Of God Eternally In The Person Of Jesus Christ, God Almighty's Begotten Son, men's brother, and savior!
Love your videos, faith and intelligence helping this old frustrated paleontologist geologist understand my own life long observations in awe and wonder of the truth!
The mechanism to destroy the wicked, the nephilim, the dinosaurs and all plant life on this planet and start fresh was God's
Hand!
QUESTION:
IF the entire Grand Canyon section was formed in The Flood in a few months, why are the strata segregated into different rock types, and why are the fossil remains in each different.
Shouldn't there be fossils of dead wicked people, camels, goats and sheep, fossilized palm trees, signs from the hootchy parlors present in Noah's town, wrecked farm carts?
What do we see?
Some units are NOT fossiliferous (the Vishnu and the granite). The Bible (I'm guessing) would say this is the land made in the first few days of Creation, made before life existed.
The Tapeats (per these guys) marks the base of the flood. It is sparsely fossiliferous, with rare trilobite and brachiopod remains, but no wicked guys nor camels (or Marlboro buds, even).
Above the Tapeats is shale and limestone, not a chaotic mix of oceanic sediment dumped on the land from the Deeps.
There are NO camels or wicked dead guys in these strata either.
The Grand Canyon WAS carved out by the Colorado. The rapids are NOT from local flash floods, but because of different rock types forming resistant ledges. The river cuts down because the land is being uplifted (but slowly, not catastrophically).
Open your mind.
It has already been determined that an ice dam of immense size, from the not-so-distant ice age melt, let loose and quickly cut the canyon. One heck of a grinder tsunami.
Look up what a mega-sequence is, look up how many have gone over the North American Continent. Now look up how many of the same sequence spread over to other continents.
Look up MT ST Helens eruption of 1980's. A few years later ,look at the giant canyons that were cut IN ONE SEASON of rains and flooding, THROUGH SOLID ROCK.
When you have a tsunami go across land, what sinks to the bottom first as the water slows????
YOU said it " rare trilobite and brachiopod" Heavy SHELLED stuff. That is what you see at the lower fossil layers, correct?
Animals dont sink until the water really slows and settles. Then you have fossil grave yards of ground up critters all mixed together.
LOOK UP Hanson Bone bed for example. A fossil layer that covers THREE STATES and contains sea and land creature fossils with few complete fossils.
How do you explain tall, vertical tree fossils that extend through multiple layers of coal seams that are 20 to 30 ft thick, EACH?
NOT MILLIONS OF YEARS! Look up Spirit Lake after the MT ST HELENS eruption. 45 yrs later is evidence of coal being formed!
OPEN YOUR MIND and keep observing and searching. You are missing so much!
Outstanding! Thank you for rising above convention, taking God’s clues and written evidence to get to the Truth.
The Truth will set you free. Kudos to all involved in threading this together, to those passionate scientists who bridge the research and Faith in such a convincing way.
Adequate words fall short for me to express how in awe I find myself surrounded with great people who resist the tendency for pride to not derail them in their discoveries and to hold fast with God’s enduring Truth to be told.
In my walk with the Lord, God said to me, "If you don't believe the BEGINNING, you won't believe anything else in the Bible". As Christians it is important for us to believe that "in the beginning God created". Our God is absolutely amazing and he is much wiser than us. I believe God's word and I'm telling you it has surely made a difference in my life. Amen
All that you mentioned is absolutely reasonable on a motionless Earth (geocentric). As soon as you add the heliocentric Perspective into it, it falls apart into Pieces like a Domino. Water always seeks its Level and cannot be bent. In the heliocentric Modell all Water would be gathered at the Equator Region only.
There is a very basic and glaring error in these interpretations. All of the volcanic deposits mentioned at the beginning of this video (ie Deccan Traps and Siberian Traps) are composed of basalt. All eruptions involving basalt are effusive, not explosive. That is, basaltic eruptions are not catastrophic, but this video asserts that they are. This is not controversial and it is taught in introductory geology classes. Basalt is also the main component of oceanic crust, and mid oceanic ridges never experience explosive eruptions. The chemistry of basalt simply does not allow for explosive eruptions. Those only happens when crust containing more volatiles is involved in the equation.
Lisle Tenderfoot - He emphasises the rate and scale of eruptions. You seem to be ignoring this. How can you assume all effusive eruptions are not catastrophic?
@michael7dee Thanks for pushing me to define how I use "catastrophic", it's important for this dialogue. The way that I'm using it here is the way in which it seems the guys in the video are, which is quick, and explosively energetic. A literal interpretation of the flood narrative, and what these guys propose necessitates that "catastrophic" contain connotations of quickness. Basalt has a mafic mineral composition, lacking the volatiles to produce explosive eruptions. This is not indoctrination, it is very basic, verifiable geology. The cascade volcanoes in the Pacific Northwest are not basaltic, that's why they undergo explosive eruptions. Those volcanoes have dioritic/andesitic material dewatering deep underneath, which causes partial crust melting and volatile release, which results in explosive eruptions. The flow basalt deposits in the inland PNW predate the current assemblage of cascade volcanoes.
@@zorot3876 see below comment!
These were not necessarily like the modern eruptions. There may have been both types of actions. Perhaps in different areas, and perhaps in slightly different times in the sequence.
@@lisletenderfoot9216 - There are fine-grained basalt deposits on the surface of every continent. The critical depth requirement for formation of non-vesicular basalt is around 9800 feet of ocean water. Thus, all of those non-vesicular basalt deposits were formed while the surfaces of every continent were under at least 9800 feet of water. Their very existence is empirical evidence of a global flood. The same holds true for lunar maria, which supports the idea that the vast majority of lunar craters are from hydro-volcanic eruptions rather than meteorite impacts.
There is a fellow brother, sadly, I’ve recently got into, yet again, a debate with, with regards to the Word Of God, the literal interpretation of the Genesis creation account and the effects of the flood. He is stuck on the billions of years of earth theory and believes dinosaurs existing millions of years before man. He doesn’t realise the effect his beliefs have on the New Testament. But, I’ve met a number of professing Christian’s who poo poo the Genesis creation account along with the flood and hold a mix of a world view!
I love this documentary in its full. Scientists who stand by, firstly, on the Word of God and then their studies bring to life the Word of God. It confirms the word of God, literally!
It now makes sense to me that whole mountains were covered in water because the great peaks we see today weren't even there before the flood!
Jesus has very little to say about the geologic erosive effects of "the Flood" and plate tectonics. He is much more concerned about the erosive effects of false teachings on the Mind of his Brethren. He does say however that faith in tiny amounts can literally move mountains. And He who cannot lie also said not to judge according to the appearance. Without rocks to judge according to the appearance, all geolgists, be they evolutionists or creationists would be up the old proverbial "Creek" without a paddle! Jesus, as a true prophet, not a scientist, avers, that the 🌎 the whole ball of wax , air, land, water and 🔥 will "cataclysmically", completely disappear and vanish in a flash. Hoyt Axton, singer , songwriter wrote: "I'm goin' to Heaven in a flash of fire 🔥, with or without you." My view leaves none behind, Praise GOD! We Love and forgive All people everywhere!
What about Genesis 10:25?
Ask more precisely.
Thank you sooo much for this video! An excellent presentation and explanation. I still have questions. If all but Noah and his family were destroyed, how do we have the other cultures around the world? My assumption according to the bible narrative, is that they all are offspring of Noah and his family. Is this assumption correct? Also, if only the animals/creatures taken on the ark survived, and the ancestral animals/creatures of all animals/creatures on earth now were literally on the ark, this means that animals such as the kangaroo, koala and platypus for examples, must have been on the ark too. Is this assumption of the bible narrative correct? I find this very hard to believe, and if someone can provide a plausible explanation I would be most grateful. Thank you in advance!
On the first question, the Bible explains the worldwide cultures and 'races' in Genesis chapter 10. There, you can see about 70 family groups that spread out over the earth and multiplied into the cultures we see today.
