We went to The Ark Encounter two years ago and it was such an amazing experience! There's something so special about The Ark and the whole grounds there! We're going back in a few weeks and can't wait to get back. We also plan to visit The Creation Museum. I know some people have criticized the awesome work being done here to spread the work of GOD. My answer is, just don't go. GOD is using Ken Hamm and his amazing crew to bless the world with these two parks. Thanks to Mr Hamm and all those involved in making these possible, and thanks to GOD!
I love this channel, you're all very helpful. I love to understand the things of God more deeply 💓🤗 ALMIGHTY God and Jesus Christ give you all love grace and mercy!
Another parallel between Noah and Christ Jesus, it does make sense that the animals would be young, Jesus said let the little children come to me, also unless you come to me as little children you will not enter the Kingdom. God ALMIGHTY is so amazing and perfect. Love you all God bless!
I understand the message of the Biblical writings on Noah and the Flood, but I struggle with the presence of Koalas and their specialised diet. Perhaps Eucalypts were present in the Middle East back then. I can't see how these animals and those from New Zealand and the Galapagos crossed over the water. I also do not understand why the Flood is written about, but not the Chicxulub asteroid impact crater, which caused far more destruction - Include a blast of airborne debris circling our planet at 1600 km/hr and huge earthquakes, followed by years of blocked sunlight and failure of vegetation (food) through cessation of Photosynthesis. The evidence for larger and earlier impacts such as Deniliquin also confuses me and I ask why this even more damaging event is not written about in young Earth timelines. I like the discussion on early iron and bronze tooling and the principles of hewing wood. These practices lasted well into the steam age when power saws removed the need for hewing, although mast construction on sailing ships still today is used as this is the best way to avoid slant grain in structural timbers. I am disappointed by the appearance of the Arc pictured with a prow and a stern shape - Why? This is not a vessel that moves through the water under power of sail, and these shapes only came about through warfare, or later when naval architects sought to avoid the power hungry bow wave.
* First, the application of pitch, during construction would help keep gofer wood dry and free of decay. * Next, the Ark was likely built above ground where soil moisture isn't the same issue as with wood that's in direct contact with the ground. (Reference: The supports under the ark in Kentucky.) * Another - Termites and carpenter ants do a lot of wood destruction in my location. We don't know if wood eating insects were common in the building location of Noah's ark. Plus, if they were there the properties of pitch may have prevented them from making holes in the wood where moisture could accumulate. * What type of wood are your posts? And, what type of climate is in your area? * I live in the SE, USA. Pine posts only last a few years. Cedar posts can last 25-50+ years, depending on the specific location. Pine posts can last as long as cedar does around here, if used if the post holes are in desert areas of Arizona and New Mexico. While we don't know the specifics of the climate in the Middle East at the time of Noah, it may have been like the very dry high desert regions in South America today. Much from thousands of years ago is still well preserved in those places. As they are in today's deserts in the Middle East. Sometimes pine posts may work, as noted, I'm sure gofer wood (whatever type it may be) was the best choice for all the characteristics needed to build the ark at it's construction site and for the year it remained afloat. Just some food for thought, for whatever that may be worth.
@@davidgardner863 Interesting that you are coming back to cast more aspersions. I'll let others decide whether you are trying to be cute, sarcastic or are legitimately ignorant of the usage of the term "gopher wood". Do spend a little time to research for yourself. If you did, what was your source for "tens of thousands gallon of pitch"? Pitch was used to coat the wood, not fill the interior of the ark, as an oil tanker is filled. BTW, ever hear of tapping maple trees to get sap for maple syrup? Same principle to obtain a different kind of sap that's used for pitch. We don't have any information on how many people physically worked on constructing and finishing the ark. We are only told that 8 people entered the ark before the flood. Your speculation is meaningless.
You have rebuilt the ark. Take 8 volunteers, the appropriate number of animals and food and lock them up on the ark to prove that it works. That would be creation science. --
You must REMEMBER that Noah did not gather all of the animals!! It was GOD who gathered the animals through his yodeling, which is well documented in Deuteronony 23:1!! I will PRAY for YOU!!
@@Antiorganizer I am not aware of any information regarding previous species before the account that we have in Genesis. When God wiped out humanity during the flood l can understand the reason for that; the people were living a very sinful life, but it puts the fear of God in me to know that all the animals were killed as well having not sinned, at least not in my understanding, but I still trust Him with all my heart and I know that He will do what is right.
@@uelerwin367 God did not wipe out humanity because there is no god, and there is no evidence of the people having been wiped out by a flood world wide at all. The whole thing is a made up story, a fable. I think it's unhealthy to trust that which does not exist.

Thank you for the nice demonstration. My conclusion is that God MUST have supernaturally made the animals constantly doze off and still kept them physically fit. If the organism is hardly moved for a year, it becomes weak and sick. Flight animals in particular need a lot of exercise every day. God must also have intervened very strongly for the mental health of the animals, so that they could survive a full year without going crazy. Sunlight is extremely important for the organism. Also being tossed around about for more than half a year (think of all the cataclysms that were at work). But the comment in the Bible where God "remembered" Noah and the ark again, is contradictory to Him taking care of all living thing at the Arc. If that part is translated correctly, it would mean He hadn't thought about Noah and the Ark since the flood began. There are so many questions who still need an answer. But the very fact that Ron Wyatt and others found a giant ark in the mountains of Ararat proves a lot. The fact that it meets all the criteria that point to Noah's ark is amazing. Likewise, all the geological evidence points to a deluge. (Sorry for my language I'm not a native.)
Good grief. It's 2023 and OP like you are still peddling this Wyatt BS as fact. It HAS ben debunked both by science AND other Young Earthers, but you cannot be bothered to look.
Wow, God really took great care of animals back then. Now he let's people get cancer and just let's them die. I love his work with Noah but after they split his work after seems lazy
They only had bronze tools 4500 years ago. Doesn’t this guy know the Iron Age didn’t start for another 1300 years? 50-75 years to build? That’s a gross underestimate. Noah hired people? Was he wealthy enough to hire the thousands of skilled workers that it would take? Could any super wealthy person in history be considered the most pious and righteous man alive? How did he design the air conditioning, plumbing, and lighting? Methane and CO2 sinks and would kill everything in a couple of days. A volume of 500 railroad cars? Only about 300 for all the animals after the food and water storage according to his own diagram. Did he really figure out how much fresh water and food it would take? I don’t think so. Only young animals? Many if not most animals need one or both parents until nearly full grown and many are full grown in a year. Not many can hibernate. How was food kept from rotting in a humid environment? What about the carnivores? I suppose the tigers ate Wheaties. I agree the whole story was to teach a lesson but it’s just a story.
You're listing baseless assertions and non-consequential questions. Their plumbing is shown in the actual ark they made. Fire would be been easy to make. You just claim Noah wouldn't have been rich because that somehow contradicts righteousness, which is false. The flood didn't last more than a year, so animals would've been fine growing up. The Bible says Noah took more animals on the ark for food. Not all food is perishable. Meat doesn't perish until you kill it. Plants don't perish quickly either, most if not all, at least. Noah had iron tools at that time.
You are making 21st century assumptions. Noah had God on his side. You are trying to debunk God through earthly things ( reasons) and it cannot be done. Please don't prove to us that you're the typical atheist who just insults and doesn't want to debate? It's really tiring..
@@ethanrichard4950 , No, my assertions are not baseless. Where is plumbing shown? Did Noah discover a gold mine? Only Kings and pharaohs could afford such a project. The animals would have been fine growing up? That’s a baseless assertion. Animals on the ark for food? Don’t you think they had to eat too? Animals produce methane, a deadly gas and without forced air ventilation everything dies. Carnivores eat a lot of meat in a year and when they got off the ark they would have quickly wiped out the herbivores. You don’t know much about plants. Ever have a loaf of bread get moldy in a week? Live plants die in a dim lit boat. There were no iron tools then. Look up “Iron Age”. Sorry, but your fantasy just doesn’t work.
Atheists refuse to see the truth. They cannot because their hearts are closed shut. They want to know God intellectually first. It cannot be done. Whatever a man can talk you into another man can talk you out of. They must open their hearts. And the mind ( and evidence) will follow, because it's there.
Why do you think that someone who doesn’t see the Bible the way you do must be an atheist? Fact is, most Christians and those of other religions don’t take the flood story literally.
Ok, so BELIEVE first and it will become real? Been there done that. I was a christian before I became an atheist and I never saw any evidence. Why should we BELIEVE in a god we cannot test or verify in any way nor need to explain any phenomenon with? And why your specific unfalsifiable god concept?
