Only 8 people survived the flood. Noah and his wife and their 3 sons and their wives. There is only one true living God, Amighty God, the triune God, the creator of aLL things, our Redeemer.

I don’t believe God has revealed all of his creation to us. Who are we to know all God has done. Certainly not with our own eyes. and our own man put together scripture, the Holy Word has been messed with to also support some narratives. Man can’t help it. It seems scripture was a pick and choose operation back in the day. I am comfortable with it took Millennia of Gods work through Jesus—the Word and time which is nothing to God. I’m comfortable with an evolution of sorts and the Big Bang. It only reinforces the staggering can’t even put into words so inadequate to even think of the Mystery of God around me. The Bible supports a re-creation of earth after the wars with the angels in the beginning. I await His return. I simply find these ruins and stuff interesting and traces of Gods wonderful creation—human and non human. It all tells the story of US—His beloved children and the home he has gifted us. God Bless Julie Ann. May Christ’s birth we celebrate bring comfort and peace and hope.
The Bible is God’s Word to us, written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the source of truth for Christians. It is inspired by God, it is without error and is the sole authority for life.
Yes. The fact that man has no doubt tampered with it does not concern me after accepting Christ. It’s not a deal breaker. Do you believe the earth is only 6 thousand years old? That says God is a deceiver and He is not. Look at psalms? Filled with metaphor and poetry. Poetry and metaphor are not always literal but educates and reveals the all encompassing God and His relationship with you and me. I am spiritually educated by the stories. Spiritually enriched and brought closer to God. Don’t you find it interesting with just the fact that ancient cultures who could not have known Christ have a flood story and a recreation? They used that in their own spiritual reaching to appeal to a higher power and try to understand why they exist. They had some deep spiritual sense even then. God will reveal himself to them as well when Christ returns. That is the living God and timeless Christ I experience. Blessings.
Lol, you are saying God is deceiver because he made a 6,000 year old earth look older than that? Do you know what 6,000 years old looks like? Do you know there’s no verifiable way to prove the theory of carbon dating?
Nope. But He gave us brains to figure things out dude. Of course he could have flipped a finger to make anything he wanted but maybe he didn’t. I find the ancient quality that he had always been here comforting and awesome. Perhaps the real deceiver wants us to question what is in front of our very eyes. The Deceiver is doing a great job right now isn’t he. But you do you. We will know more later.
I’m a PhD neuroscientist but also believer in Christ and His redeeming grace offered through his sacrificial death. Janet, I appreciate your words!!
All through school, I was just amazed at how BIG God is and how little we really understand. You should check out the podcast Blurry Creatures, if you haven’t already.

Of course God has always been here. You can keep that comfort.
You are the one questioning what is in front of your very eyes.
