I can’t believe I used to mock this man a couple of years ago when I was a militant atheist. But by the grace of God I am now saved and have never been happier. Thank you pastor Surface from Ohana Baptist.
i'd like to hear your story of how you came to God
Bravo, for your humility. But stay humble. Even Ken Ham is wrong about a great many things, including taking God's word in the "ink" literally, contrary to the warning in 2 Cor. 3.3-8.
Thats Awesome
I can’t believe I followed him as a former fundamentalist Christian. But I am glad you’ve come to a knowledge of Jesus.
PRAISE GOD! I was an atheist too! But now Jesus has revealed Himself to me! PRAISE GOD
I love how he answered the last question:”you need to question men’s word not God’s!”
Amen to that
Is it lost on your lovely trusting smiling self that HIS words are man's words?
The problem with man’s word is we seem to have trouble with “ I don’t know”s so we fill those blanks with theories that in no time we think are fact. I worry sometimes we do that with his word also, by filling in blanks or misunderstanding scripture meaning.
@@Justme-ju5et Im afraid that you are speaking the truth and are absolutely 100 % correct. May God almighty have mercy on us all please. I have to keep reminding myself family friends that all the preachers, Priest, pastors are all going to be responsible for their own congregations only we are all still going to be held accountable for our actions regardless of who we are or are not God's not going to care about all of our excuses anyone tries to conjure up as im certain he's heard them all for 100 sure all we can do is be the best human beings we can and love and serve our lord with all our hearts and our mights. God bless America.
@@Justme-ju5et Absolutely right, JM. It's ok to fill in the blanks and sometimes necessary to do so, but not with bad science and old Calvinist crumbs.
Ken Ham that is the best explanation of evolution that I have ever heard.
Simply brilliant.
And let’s see him give the exact same explanation to a trained biologist and then watch him get taken apart like legos 😂
There are actually 4 different types of evolution at work in nature...
Carl Sagan...'We're much better off having questions we can't answer, than answers we can't question'. True to the bone.
Carl is not in a good spot.
@@miked9383 Only fools believe in souls. You will never know that you were wrong
@donnyh3497
Do you really believe that?
@@luboshcamber1992 I KNOW that. Even if it weren't obviously fairytale bullsh*t, the last 200 years of neuroscience have completely destroyed that silly notion. And how dim do you have to be to actually not see through the whole "you'll get an eternity of paradise if you believe me" and "you will be tortured for eternity if you don't believe me" bullsh*t? A child can see through that!
@@luboshcamber1992 What in the hell is "3497" lubosh3497?
Love the video!!! Can’t believe that TBN would allow sound teaching on their airwaves!!!!!
Totally agree watching a video in tbn was expecting them to part the Red Sea or pass over houses and take lives in others and consume offerings on a mountain on a mountain because God did they could claim it.
All in jest- we claim these promises of God’s goodness and revelation on display to us. And our trust to put in him in all life and practice.
They do and always have; it's how they draw people into their satanic teachings. Like a gingerbread house. Kirk has been a complicit tool for them a long time.
Lol😂
Sound teaching? Does it sound nice? Is his voice mellifluous? Because what he is teaching is utter garbage.
@@johnelliott5859 Can you give specific examples?
I personally agree with everything he said in this video. What specifically are you calling garbage?
Also, to help this conversation progress to the root of your comment, are you a Christian?
Cactus, Camel, Platypus, Human, Fibonacci sequence, The Ocean, Venus Fly Trap, Biochemistry and Mushroom communication are some things that blow me away in nature
Veins in a maple leaf, praying mantis, stick bugs, songbirds, practically anything in nature blows me away! Add humans, dinos, & the human brain to the list as well!
Just your simple moth or butterfly. Evolution can't explain how a caterpillar goes into a cocoon and comes out a butterfly. Millions of years of trial and error for the caterpillar? There wouldn't be anymore of these beautiful creatures!
Joe biden and camela harriss are two creatures that make me scratch my head.
@@stormykeep9213 Evolution isn't supposed to explain caterpillars to butterflies. That's metamorphosis not evolution. Evolution is the change of allele frequency in populations over generations. Or in English, genetic change in populations of animals.
Evolution is directly observed in real life and new species have evolved in your own lifetime.
What did Venus flytraps eat in the Garden of Eden?
I recently watched him talking about this with Allie on her Relatable podcast. I feel so foolish for never questioning so many things that we’ve been told. The Bible is as solid as any geological theory.
I love Ken Ham and Answers in Genesis.
I just want to point out he dodged the question about dinosaurs by focusing on the birth of the semantic label for them. And not on explaining Genesis and dinosaurs place in history.
Avoided the evolution question as well. So all physical evidence is bullshit to tempt us to question God’s word? Give me a break
Ken Ham dodges many question and simply fails to even understand the question.
Ken didn't actually answer the question, did he? I was curious to listen to the video and look at the comment section to see if anyone gave the explanation for dinosaurs that I would give. "Nephilim" is the shorthand answer. It refers to the time recorded in Genesis 6 when fallen angels mated with human women and spawned a race of giants. We learn from other ancient writings such as the Book of Enoch that monsters in the animal kingdom were also produced. Prior to the Great Flood, the entire earth was filled with corrupted DNA both in humans and animals. It seems pretty obvious to me that this is where dinosaurs came from.
Lol the answer to the question is, they were normal animals just like the wooly mammoth or megladon. There were human bones found in the Ashley phosphate layer back in 1850s, an it was assumed that this was a pre historic layer, well a scientist found a human “fossil” amongst the other large extinct animal fossils.
Food for thought, there’s a book about all that
He didn't "dodge " the question. If you want, you can do your own research quite easily. Unicorns are mentioned several times in the Bible. Read: Numbers 23:22 Job 30: 9,10 Psalm 29: 6 Psalm 92:10 Also look up Leviathon and Giants and Nephalim.
I like when he said it's not a matter of what God could've done it's not a matter to what you think he did it's a matter of what he said he did that was a straight to the point answer.
God bless! Thanks for these
Love Ken Hamm and the Creation Museum and Answers in Genesis. He and his people have taught me and encouraged me so much. Terrific scientist, teachers, and commentators there. Thanks for getting the great guests, I love you and your show!
Please go to a natural science museum
They're not scientists. Everything they say regarding science is completely wrong. They rely on people like you who don't fact-check their statements.
Then your are science illiterate, poor soul, I feel truly sad for your blissful ignorance
😂😂
Mark 4:24
And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.
This was just great! Thank you both!
ALL of life is a mystery, embrace the mystery while endeavoring to live in the flow of Love. Love God, Love neighbor, that is all. Shalom.
I'm confused as to why he didn't actually answer the dinosaur question. We can Google the origin of the word.
Because it throws a wrench in a literal interpretation? I used to be an atheist then saw the folly in that since I am scientifically minded and can't deny observations that are inconvenient. I have a different understanding now which doesn't really align with any one religion, I think they all provide meaningful insight but each one ultimately misses the mark in being complete. The problem with formal religion is that a literal interpretation of them actually does disagree with scientific evidence. The world is not 5000 years old. I say, each religion is like that old proverb of several blind people each feeling a different part of the elephant and describing it which is great, but ultimately none of them individually can understand what the whole elephant is like. And atheism is a religion too, it says some good things which is why some people believe in it but ultimately it isn't capable of explaining the world. Same with any other religion. So if I am discussing with atheists they accuse me of being Christian, and vice versa. Such is the consequence of having an open scientific mind and genuinely considering other peoples' perspectives.
@@ShoestringRacer I guess you could argue that atheism is not a religion since it isn't really like most traditional religions. Bit it is a belief system. It asserts that there is a set of immaterial laws pervading the universe, possibly all coming from a single unified theory if that is ever discovered, and that these imaginary laws dictate how material things behave in relation to each other, like bowling balls bouncing around independently. And that this mechanistic view of the world can explain everything. Well it can't, the whole story breaks down with any real scientific analysis. It doesn't even really work for bowling balls if you bounce them more than a few times off each other.
Read the book of Job 40:15-24 I believe God is describing what seems to be a dinosaur to Job and in 41 what seems to be a dragon.
If you want, you can do your own research quite easily. Unicorns are mentioned several times in the Bible. Read: Numbers 23:22 Job 30: 9,10 Psalm 29: 6 Psalm 92:10 Also look up Leviathon and Giants and Nephalim.
He did answer it
I love that bit about questioning man's word. People always say "Science says...". But Science doesn't say a thing - it is Scientists who do the talking. Scientists are some of the most biased people I've ever met. This is why things like reproducible science and peer review is so crucial. But those are so tainted by politics and hidden agenda.
Money corrupts everything, including science, however the method of science is as close as we can get to proper understanding of anything. You just have to separate the bad from the good.
12:50 "Man's fowl-able word". Thanks for that. In Jesus Christ name...Amen.
Blows me away- beehives; hexagons are the perfect shape for structure in a multifaceted hive.
I figure there's a LOT we don't know specifically about what/where/when things happened- I have faith that God gave us what is truly important in the Bible... that we not judge or push away others, and to extend however much love we have to others.
Beehives are cool, certainly, but bees build round cylindrical tubes that form over time naturally into hexagonal shape due to temperature and contact with other cells. It's an example of emergence in nature-- 'chaos to order' so to speak.
Best point: 👉 "it's not about what God COULD have done, it's about what He SAID He did."
That's not exactly it. The Law is given through Moses by the mediation of angels. The words of the Pentateuch are inspired and inerrant, but not in the way you're thinking. You have to start with the New Testament and read all the ancient texts in light of the truth of the LAST Adam, not the first. Then it makes sense.
@@duncescotus2342 I'm not clear how that connects to a literal 6 day creation the way Genesis describes
@@SpiritLife It describes such as you say in Hebrew, in ANCIENT Hebrew, with the word "day" which has ample application of meaning, just as our English word "day" does to-day. For example:
"In the day that you eat of it, you shall die."
Ok, so here God is speaking of an unspecified future time when Adam and Eve will cease to live if they disobey. They didn't actually die right after eating the fruit.
A modern example would be:
"soup of the day," literally the soup that you can get only that day: "lobster bisque was the soup of the day"
vs.
"fashion of the day," referring to what's in style for a unspecified period of time: "the corset was the fashion of the day."
Here's the link to the Hebrew. You can see every place in the Bible that the Hebrew word for "day" is found and how English translators rendered it.
www.biblehub.com/hebrew/3117.htm
But be prepared for a long Bible study. This word occurs well over 2000 times.
Moreover, the definition for a 24 hour day is the time it takes for the Earth to rotate once on its axis.
Therefore, none of this ancient Hebrew is perfectly literal, and those who teach it that way are arrogant and errant.
@@duncescotus2342 Thank you!
@@ArtbyAP Hey my sibling in Christ, thank YOU. I appreciate the agreement. I don't often get that here on TH-cam. May the Lord reveal more and more to you and bless your art ministry to the fullest potential, beyond your wildest dreams according to His perfect will in Christ, and to your household of faith untold blessings, as it is written:
"Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved, you and your house."
I don’t get the answer about dinosaurs. He just said the word dinosaur is a modern word. He negates to address that carbon dating shows these bones to be millions of years old yet creationism says the earth is only 6000 years old. Why didn’t he address this?
No, carbon dating is not used for dinosaur bones as carbon dating is useless on that time scale. Other radiometric dating methodology is used
?? He DID address it. How would you describe a dino before the word was invented? DRAGONS. Carbon dating does no such thing and all dating methods are inherently flawed. The official age of the earth has changed 20 times. And it'll change again. Carbon dating has dated a recently killed seal at 1500 years; has dated a LIVING mollusk at being dead for 2600 years. Dating uses circular reasoning as well. They say "We know that _____lived from _____ years to _____years so this new fossil must be _____ years old. That's called a tautology, circular reasoning. You should look up "ooparts", out of place artifacts". There are literally THOUSANDS of thing found that throw all secular claims of "MILLIONS of years" into chaos simply by being found in allegedly ancient layers and existing.
Carbon Dating is Bologny man made Science. Earth is billions and millions of years old. Its literally thousands.
I love kirk Cameron's ❤
Please pray for my EX husband ( William)
Sooo good. Enjoyed it all. Helps me to explain some of things when talking about creation.
😂
It's all nonsense. Evolution has already been demonstrated to be true. That's why apologists resort to lying about it.
@@speciesspeciate6429 indeed, and they repeat the mantra-lie over and over, lack giving proof of their claims and you better agree with those pastors, because else you will dissapoint god and jesus for lacking faith..
This needs to be in a straight jacket urgently!
Ken Ham - how to tell that educating your kids is important.
Amazing
"No such thing as DNA outside the Earth". Must be nice to be so familiar with the entirety of Gods creation.
This is good. Thank you 🙏🏽
Wow, thank you for the information. Some of things I learned in Catholic grade school and high school is wrong.
I love kirk camera ❤
Either they were created as they were or they are an example of the original creation gone amok after the fall. But we do know they became extinct
I love that statement Ken makes “It’s about what God SAID He did.” Trust the Word of God.
What did God say he did?
It's not the word of God. You Christians say it is because it makes you feel better.
@@speciesspeciate6429 That's a logical circle you just claimed. I could easily say "you non-Christians say it isn't because it makes you feel better."
@@esava44 It's demonstrably the word of man. It's already fact that it was written by at least 40 different authors. Whether they were inspired by god is irrelevant because they wrote it not god.
@@speciesspeciate6429 If the Word of God, as described in Genesis is God's creative action...could God not creatively inspire the words written by man? Thus making it His word?
Love youuu kirk
Excellent
You always interview the most interesting and knowledgeable people Kirk! Keep up the great job!
Perpetual humility to God's Truth might have you leaving Ken Ham behind, for scripture warns against biblical literalism (2 Cor. 3.3-8).
never a REAL scientist, just fellow religious fanatic indoctrinated christians that think like themselves.. 🤣
@@RodMartinJr Debunking catholicism
I'm more blessed than mary
Proof = Luke 11:27-28
27 And it happened, as He spoke these things, that a certain woman from the crowd raised her voice and said to Him, “Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed You!”
28 But He said, “More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”
In Luke 11:27 that random woman LITERALLY said Jesus your mother is Blessed, but are Lord Jesus LITERALLY said Believers are more Blessed than mary. Amen and Amen

CHRIST alone
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
ACTS 4:12 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
There is only One Mediator between God and men, LORD Jesus Christ= 1 Timothy 2:5
For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus.
Hebrew 9:15 And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.
Hebrew 12:24 to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.
Hebrew 8:6 But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises.
Ephesians 2:18 For through Him we both have access by One Spirit to the Father
John 15:5
5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.
_________________________
Work of God =
John 6:28 Then they said to Him, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?”
29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.”
_________________________
1 Timothy 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach
Paul allows bishops to get marry, but catholic church goes against paul.
Now these catholic will give a Verses from 1 Corinthians7 to say that paul gave the advice to stay unmarried. But they will not tell you that the same chapter they quote says 1 Corinthians 7:28 "even if you do marry, you have not SINNED". The passage literally says "young women, young men" and a bishop is supposed to be a Church ELDER. Mic drop
_________________________
Jesus said Matthew 23:9
9 Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven.
And also said Holy Father to Heavenly Father= John 17:11
11 Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are.
Jesus said call no one Father but still catholics call *pope holy father.
Sad
_________________________
Whenever a catholic argue about mary being the mother of God
Use this to defeat the argument.
Luke 8:21 But He answered and said to them, “My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”
Matthew 12:46-50
46 While He was still talking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak with Him. 47 Then one said to Him, “Look, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak with You.”
48 But He answered and said to the one who told Him, “Who is My mother and who are My brothers?” 49 And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers! 50 For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother.”.
Mark 3:35 For whoever does the will of God is My brother and My sister and mother.”
John 19:26-27
26 When Jesus therefore saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing by, He said to His mother, “Woman, behold your son!” 27 Then He said to the disciple, “Behold your mother!” And from that hour that disciple took her to his own home. ( Jesus basically said John is the son of mary, and mary is the mother of John from that time onwards).
By the way sarah is the mother of all proof=Galatians 4:21-26.

We should not pray to apostles
Romans 1:25
25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
Acts 10:25-26
25 As Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped him. 26 But Peter lifted him up, saying, “Stand up; I myself am also a man.”
Acts 14:15
15 and saying, “Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men with the same nature as you, and preach to you that you should turn from these useless things to the living God, who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all things that are in them,
Revelation 19:10
10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “See that you do not do that! I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”
Revelation 22:8-9
8 Now I, John, saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things.
9 Then he said to me, “See that you do not do that. For I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God."
Colossians 2:18
18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
You cannot go to Father through saints nor mary, you can only go to the Father through Lord Jesus Christ= John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Ephesians 2:18 For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.
Holy Spirit intercedes for us=Romans 8:26
26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
And CHRIST as well=Romans 8:34
34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.
Hebrews 7:25
25 Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.
It's Christ and Holy Spirit who intercedes for us not apostles
_________________________
Apostles are allowed to marry,
1 Corinthians 9:1-5
1 Am I not an apostle? Am I not free? Have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? Are you not my work in the Lord? 2 If I am not an apostle to others, yet doubtless I am to you. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.
3 My defense to those who examine me is this: 4 Do we have no right to eat and drink? 5 Do we have no right to take along a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?
If Peter (peter is cephas read John 1:42) the so called "first pope" was married, why does the catholic church doesn't allow "pope" to marry?
_________________________
The so called vicar of christ/ pope/holy father Peter called himself a fellow elder in 1 Peter 5:1, and as per the qualifications of elder in Titus 1:5-9 the elder is allowed to get married; then why does the "pope" is required to be celibate and catholic? ( when Peter was neither celibate nor catholic).
1)Peter was not perfect human nor was he a perfect disciple
2)He sank down while walking on water
3)Our Lord said to peter get behind me satan
4)Peter reject our Lord 3 times
5)Our Lord rebuked Peter for calling fire from heaven
6)Our Lord rebuked Peter when he cut of the soilders ear
7)Paul rebuked Peter for being hypocrite because he was acting different in front of Jews and different in front of gentiles.
8) Moses messed up, and he was a important part of Bible ( that's why he never entered the promised land),
9)David messed up ( and he has the Holy Spirit),
10)King Soloman messed up,
11) Saul messed up and God regretted the decision (1 Samuel 15:10-11).
Hatrick (Saul then David then Soloman back to back messed up)
12)The apostles run away a day before Lord Jesus got locked up.
13)The early church messed up Rev 2:18-20, 1 Corinthians, Galatians.
14) Apostle John when receiving Revelation worshiped an angel and the angel said "see you do not do that. Worship GOD" Revelation 22:8-9
If these great people could mess up, why do you think the catholic church wouldn't mess up.
_
Galatians 4:21-26
21 Tell me, you who desire to be under the law, do you not hear the law? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, the other by a freewoman. 23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh, and he of the freewoman through promise, 24 which things are symbolic. For these are the two covenants: the one from Mount Sinai which gives birth to bondage, which is Hagar- 25 for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children- 26 but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all.
Sarah is mother of all, Not mary
Also the Church has many name like Christians, Evangelists, Children of God, Believers, servents of God, bride of Christ, but not once the Church is called catholics
Changed the 10 commandments by deleting 2nd commandment, and dividing the 10th into 2 commandments. Also changing the real Saturday Sabbath to fake sunday sabbath.
@@RodMartinJr There is nothing about literalism in that passage.
@@mynameis......23 It is ALL about literalism. Your statement is an Appeal to the Stone type logical fallacy. A bald claim isn't truth just because you state it.
That passage talks about the "ink" or "letter" versus the "spirit." Literalism is taking the "ink" or the "letter." God wants us to work harder and more humbly which invokes the spirit so you can see Truth which cannot be contained in ANY human language.
Now, I've made a claim, but I have backed it up with reasoning and the FACTS of the verses.
Ken showed how ignorant he is by saying there can’t be DNA in outer space, how could he possibly know that?
I have been hearing this same thing from MANY scientists from many sources here on TH-cam. Man DOESZ NOT KNOW THE SOUECE OF HUMAN LIFE! And I praise God for that! God is infinitely wiser, smarter and all-knowing. He is the origin of life. We are so uniquely and wonderfully made and I pray that no human being EVER discovers how we are formed.
Love you dude❤❤❤
The only thing that puzzles me is that scriptures never talk about a giant Dinosaur stepping on humans or destroying towns just by walking around. 🤔
It doesn’t mention elephants doing that either - but that’s a problem to this day in some parts of Africa. It does allude to creatures with that capability though.
@@rishon1273 thanks for your answer, but I don’t think you can compare elephants to Dinosaurs. 😂
@@stephenhunterheg Everything won't be mentioned in Scripture. There's a lot that has happened throughout history that's not mentioned. Jesus performed many more miracles that are not even in the Bible but we have what we need for salvation and to live a godly life. We make big deals about "dinosaurs" but to God, it's just another creation.
@@jtremaine23 I agree with you. But, your explanation doesn’t help when dealing with young Christians or the secular world. Thanks for the reply.
It might have happened but it sounds like it was hardly worth mentioning. Also, think about it, they were probably hunted for meat. Research Marco Polo's trip when he went to China. The people there hunted dragons for their meat, bones and "gall" which almost sounds like a poison that they had in their mouth. Secular shills will lie and call it a crocodile but no crocs are 20 ft long or more, walk on two legs and have jaws and teeth so big that they could kill and swallow you.
Excellent, yes, you don't listen to man's fallible word (and ever changing) but to God
gods word is IN the bible, right ? so do you obey him ? don't kill, dont sin ,and ALL those other laws ?
Have you ever eaten crab?
Amen.
Every drop of rain has been here since the beginning..
Genesis code offers an interesting theory on the topic. Obviously I can't claim it's 100% factual, but it is interesting and I wish there was more discussion about this in Christian discussion. Would love to hear Ken and Kirks opinions on this.
The Genesis Code actually rejects the text of Genesis, ignoring several key aspects, which blows that entire movie out of the water. It's another sad attempt to cram billions of years into a six solar day creation account.
@@evasionstudiosco I appreciate your reply and agree that it isn't factual on all aspects. The theory that defines time with gravity and light, to me, explains how one day for God could equal a million years to us. Also explains how Adam could live for almost a thousand years. If Adam could live longer, and animals could live longer, reptiles specifically when talking about dinosaurs. Reptiles don't stop growing and their longer life could explain the large reptilian fossils. I don't see how this theory conflicts with Genesis, but maybe you could help me understand this better.
@@glennallred5510 I'd be glad to. The first to remember is that God invented time, but He is not bound by it. The Genesis Code theorizes that God is speaking from His perspective, when in fact it's the opposite. He's inspiring the writing to be done of Man's perspective.
Day three contains all plant life coming into adult form in a solar day, and day four brings in the Sun, the Moon, and all the stars (and likely planets). God put the laws of nature in place as he created them, so that would have killed off all plant life starved of the Sun, if there was deep time between the creative acts.
In reference to Man living so long, the original creation was so vastly different than our current world that Man was able to live far healthier lives for nearly a thousand years. All of those dates are also in the genealogies as well. Not just Adam. Methuselah outlived Adam for instance. If we have to dilate time for them, then look at the dates for when they had kids. Some of them would have only been children when they were said to have had their own kids.

6:58 was hoping to hear more about what happened to the dinosaurs and when. Obviously they aren’t around today, yet we have proof of their existence through bones.
Were they wiped out in the flood of Noah?
I would love to hear a Christian perspective on how humanity came from Noah, given the burial remains we find today, of previous (“prehistoric”) civilizations, and peoples. Is there somewhere I can find this information? Where it explains archeological remains (legitimate ones), we find. You can’t argue with archeological finds, if they are real, bcs they are evidence of what was around before the modern age. I would like to hear a Christian explanation of history of man since Noah. Why were travelers surprised to find native Americans at the “New World” for instance. Why didn’t people understand the entire earth was populated through scripture?
What was the propagation of human kind from Noah, that matches with evidence we find. Would love help with these questions. Thanks.
There was a big bang. Right after God said let there be light.
I was saved as a child. I remember in science class when I learned that what people exhale (carbon dioxide) is taken in by plants and released as (oxygen) what we breath in. Seems like a designed system to me and after that she taught us Darwin's (THEORY) of evolution now taught as fact. I remember thinking back then Darwin yeah right that's the goofiest thing I ever heard..lol
I know, right? Thinking about it, it is true stupidity! Utterly impossible and no can seem to be able to get it out of the “theory” stage because so much is missing.
I just did 2 science courses back to back (I’m back in college), and I stood firm on my biblical viewpoint and questioned every single evolution claim in my discussion posts. Somehow, I got an A in one class and a B in the other. That was God all the way!
It does seem to be evidence for God that you received such a high grade. I’m a bit surprised though that you didn’t learn in science class what it means for something becomes a theory and remains one over time.
Maybe God designed the world to evolve through evolution and natural selection. 🙏

I was curious to listen to the video and look at the comment section to see if Ken or anyone else offered the explanation for dinosaurs that I would have given. "Nephilim" is the shorthand answer. It refers to the race of giants that were spawned when fallen angels mated with human women as recorded in Genesis 6. We learn from other ancient writings such as the Book of Enoch that monsters in the animal kingdom were also produced. Prior to the Great Flood, the entire earth was filled with corrupted DNA both in humans and animals. It seems pretty obvious to me that this is where dinosaurs came from. They were destroyed in the flood along with the giants and the rest of humanity except for Noah and family. The giants somehow managed a weaker comeback after the flood, although just how that occurred is hotly debated. Fascinating stuff!
It isn't fascinating if you know how things work in reality. It is a myth created by ignorant people thousands of years ago and even dumber people today read it literally as fact.
In other words brothers and sisters.....yes. man walked with Dinosaurs!! And not only that...but Adam had authority of them! So cool!!! Kirk Cameron you are a true brother...I've been watching you since "Growing Pains", and you've always been one of my absolute favorite actors brother...God bless you abundantly can't wait to meet you in Heaven my friend!!!

Two of my favorite people in one video! So good. Thank you! Mr. Ham, I'm so thankful that in God's Providence I was able to hear you speak and meet you at Sandy Cove (in 2001 and 2003). I love learning from you about science, Biiblical authority, and Genesis 1-11. Kirk, it was wonderful to get to hear you and meet you on September 13th! And in this video, like all your Takeaways videos, you always ask the best questions. Thank you both for all you do for the Lord!
The Bible is authoritative, but also literary. Some stuff is literal. Some stuff is figurative. Some stuff is rhetorical. Most works on more than one of these levels. Really now, sister. How is this not apparent at this point?
But how could any Christians go on Total blasphemy network?
@@joshportie Ah good one. But beware. Speaking against truth and true works of God, wherever they occur, is blasphemy.
Please don't mention science and that idiot Ham in the same sentence. The bible is not a science book, it is a fictional tale narrated by a bunch of goat herders.
Your standards are low if you favor ignorance and lies.
But he didn't answer the question about dinosaurs. Where are they in the timeliness of Genesis/Story of Creation

Ken, I love you brother...don't get me wrong. We can disagree on these issues and still have fellowship in Jesus Christ. I still don't understand how you can ignore passages in the Bible, such as Genesis 1:1 and 1:2. Obviously, something happened between these two verses. 1 John 1:5 says: "God is light, and in him is no darkness at all." So, where did the darkness come from between verses 1 and 2 of Genesis 1? When you can answer that one, I'll be listening to you with both ears open. How about Isaiah 14: 12-21? Lucifer had a kingdom sometime before Adam on the earth. What's your explanation? Please address this. I would give you more scripture, but chew on these for a while. There's a lot to chew on. God bless.
I’m waiting for you to have Gary DeMar on!
So God did it is just a synonym for we don't know how it happened.
Kirk I love when you have this Mr. Ham and the other man idk his name or his job. they make you think and teach you
tysvvm Kirk!!!!!!!
I have to say, Mister Ham, you hair looks spectacular, sir.
I love him and Candace Cameron brue
Kirk dont take this personally
These two together understand science as much as Mozart understood about professional wrestling.
Everything they say is a string of logical fallacies that makes all their statements by definition irrational.
All that is needed to make the Holy Trinty of lunatic Christians is if Ray Comfort was here.
Is this a joke? The only time dinosaurs lived with people was on the Flintstones!
nope ...these folks believe dinosaurs were on Noah's ark ..two by two ...or maybe in 7s f they were clean ..then they all died off within the last few thousand years ..if this were several centuries ago they would find Scriptures to prove the Earth is flat
Hi kirk, I think I remember, but I dont know if I should say. Let's just focus on trying to love Jesus. And The Holy Spirt He's lovely and Father God.
In Jesus name Amen.
Jesus is Alive!!!

Powerful, but there is a correction on 6:43 >> *Adam was not there when Eve was deceived*
---> That's why Eve was DECEIVED
---> But Adam CHOOSE to sin, thinking that if he doesn't, God might punish Eve alone. But he doesn't know that if God was able to give him Eve, He is able to give him another one if he chose to OBEY!
Without Watching the video here's the answer to the Title Question. Basted on the comments I'm sure he didn't answer the question properly.
A: The Bible is not a book on Taxonomy, there are thousands of Animals that were never mentioned in the Bible. The Bible can be summed up in many ways but I'll use this one. Paradise lost in Genius, paradise regained in Revelation, everything in-between is the story of redemption.
Amen!! Thank you Kirk for these informative videos!!
Brother Mark, please. This is not information. It's more like propaganda. But for what purpose?
Okay so do baby dinosaurs use cooking pans to hit daddy dinosaur on the head while saying 'not the momma! Not the momma!' ?
3:18 Now, DNA was not seen, since there were no microscopes, in St. Paul's day.
I would say, Geocentrism and St. Thomas' Prima Via is what St. Paul is talking about.
Mr Ham's interpretation of the Bible is not necessarily what the Bible actually teaches...it is but one interpretation.
The Bible does not give an age for the Earth. Long ages and billions of years do not require or imply biological evolution and an old Earth and an old universe is a valid biblical interpretation. Mankind was created by God. Even in the old Earth view.
If you are not a Christian, and you have been holding out on making a decision for Christ because the Church always preached a message that was contrary to what you saw in the scientific world, then rest assured that the Bible is the inerrant Word of God, and you can believe in Christ and receive salvation, while still believing in an old earth
Well said. It makes no difference how long creation took, or if time is linear in any humanly comprehensible way. What matters out of Genesis foremost is Adam. Sin enters the world through the image of God and is righted by the last Adam the "very image of the unseen God."
Keep fighting for the Gospel, and put sectarians and legalists in their place.
This crap creationist doctrine is outrageous for many reasons, but perhaps mostly because it's not necessary!
@@duncescotus2342 It makes no difference, except that God wrote with own finger that it took six days.
It absolutely makes a difference. If you are willing to compromise in one area, then that just multiplies over time. There is absolutely no way to fit in billions of years in the Bible, thus making it an INvalid interpretation.
@@kyloooooo Eternity fits in the Bible. Please rethink that comment.
@@duncescotus2342 please re-read the comment in context. In regards to the age of the created earth, there is no way to fit in billions of years into the Bible. You have to go against the plain written text.
The most amazing thing of all is how much Ken Ham gets wrong. He simply doesn’t understand the difference between literal and figurative interpretations.
Let there be no misunderstandings to this:
The six days of creation are NOT literally six twenty four hour days, but rather are figurative for six stages of creation with reach stage occurring in varying timeframes.
Science is correct to state that the universe is roughly 14.5B years old, with the Earth being roughly 4.5B.
The more I listen to him the more amazed I am at how much he simply doesn’t understand.
It's still confusing, if dinosaur is a modern word, then Adam & Eve came first. Why create dinosaurs later ? Then they are supposed to get wiped out by a large meteor. How does humans survive, but not the dinosaurs ?
You can say what you will about these prehistoric creatures but im glad God chose this time for me to be alive. I wouldnt feel comfortable in my cave knowing insects of 50 cm flying and crawling around.
Not only is "dinosaur" a modern word, it is also a modern concept, that was designed to help evolution along, with it's new beginning as well.
It wasnt designed to help evolution it was designed to name a type of animal that we found bones of but there is no modern contemporary for.
Ken’s point is moreso that dinosaur is a modern word meaning if they were mentioned in the bible it would be by a different name.
One thing Id like to add is I dont really see big deal about dinosaurs not being mentioned. Bison aren’t mentioned in the bible. Does God have to explain every animal to us?
I remember learning about the Arc exhibit in Kelucky and wanting to take my kids there for a family trip. And so I showing my brother and sister and mom a TH-cam video of the attraction at Thanksgiving time and when they showed baby dinosaurs and dinosaur eggs on the arc, everyone kind of looked at me sideways, lol.
They should look at you sideways, and you should look at yourself square in the face. It's delusional.
Pretty sure the sideways looks are warranted.
@@Bomtombadi1 I believe God's word over scientific theories, which change daily.
@@homevalueglass3809 I know you think you sound smart by sticking with consistency, but have another listen.
Do you understand why science changes? Because as we learn more, that is what we do; we shift our position, update our understanding. That is called growth.
All you’re really communicating when you say you’ll take “God’s word” over “changing science,” is that growth and learning make you uncomfortable and you’d rather stick with what’s easy versus what’s hard.

Amen! Thank you Kirk!
This was wonderful!
“He was despised and rejected- a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way. He was despised, and we did not care. Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all. He was oppressed and treated harshly, yet he never said a word. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter. And as a sheep is silent before the shearers, he did not open his mouth. Unjustly condemned, he was led away. No one cared that he died without descendants, that his life was cut short in midstream. But he was struck down for the rebellion of my people. He had done no wrong and had never deceived anyone. But he was buried like a criminal; he was put in a rich man’s grave. But it was the Lord’s good plan to crush him and cause him grief. Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants. He will enjoy a long life, and the Lord’s good plan will prosper in his hands. When he sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied. And because of his experience, my righteous servant will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins. I will give him the honors of a victorious soldier, because he exposed himself to death. He was counted among the rebels. He bore the sins of many and interceded for rebels.”
Isaiah 53:3-12 NLT
This was written around 700 years before Jesus came into the earth, yet it describes His life perfectly.
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16
God loves you so much and showed that by sending His Son to die for us so that we may inherit eternal life. We deserve hell but He gave us heaven through faith in Jesus. He took the punishment we deserved and by putting our faith in Him we can be saved. The Key To Eternal Life:

Everyone seems to think religion couldn’t survive without creation and the flood . It isn’t that limited.
Religion, however does limit our vision severely enough that we can’t see the full beauty of life, orchestrated by a sustaining, yet ‘fragile’ planet. In the Bible and religion, the world’s fate is as barren and lonely as death itself.
Recently I had a date with a girl. (my first ever btw)
The morning before, I woke up with the first thought "He will help you". I noticed there wasn't a pillow beneath my head. I believed/understood God was telling me "A pillow is made by men. Any manly attempt at trying to get rest doesn't work, I give you rest". As I was looking around, I saw the pillow lying at my feet. This reminded me of Ruth, so I began reading Ruth 3.
There I saw that I could see this as a symbol of loyalty.
After the date on the same day, the girl texted me to tell me she didn't think we matched. I was very confused, as we had built a big (obviously romantic leaning) connection before on a youth trip to Israel. I didn't allow myself to have rest unless I understood how this came about to be. Until God reminded me; that only in Him I should find rest. No manly pillow will do.
Ken ham is a legend! God bless you both

God is Eternal.He always was and is.
Thanks for sharing kirk! Sounds interesting. To me when it comes with God, God in a way how big government works, "big government can give you something you want but is strong enough to take everything you have" well in a way God is no different I mean god can give you rain, to grow your food, grow your grass, water for your yard ponds for flowers and fish, can give you a baby, can give you vitamins from the sun/ certain foods. But God also has the power to take away everything you need "what I mean"? Think about it god can dry up the water which becomes doughty, kills off plants, kills off animals by starvation and dehydration, too much sun can give you skin cancer/ blind,ish without protection/ dries your skin out. Can also give you a beautiful big tree for shade, but can also blow the tree over, either on your house, or across the yard. So I realized to me God creates the action of known "part of life" you live, you live, if not oh well, creates something new to take over, and that's us living humans and other creatures today, or else we would never existed same thing with Jesus..
Though you ramble, you speak truth. But watch out for theological hurricanes.
Fantastic interview. Thank you!
I believe it says tree of knowledge not fruit.
I gotta be NH blunt here:
That analogy about the engine.. doesn’t even make sense in itself.
So we have pistons and oil and gas to maintain the engine when God is self sufficient?
God is like a box of chocolates... Oh wait.

"Behemoth" Job 40:15
Yes you are absolutely right!
“Behold now the behemoth (the hippopotamus), which I created as I did you; he eats grass like an ox. See now, his strength is in his loins, and his power is in the sinews of his belly. He moves his tail like a cedar tree; the tendons of his thighs are twisted together [like a rope]. His bones are like tubes of bronze; his limbs [or ribs] are like bars of iron. [The hippopotamus] is the first [in magnitude and power] of the works of God [in animal life]; [only] He Who made him provides him with his [swordlike tusks, or only God Who made him can bring near His sword to master him]. Surely the mountains bring him food, where all the wild animals play. He lies under the lotus trees, in the covert of the reeds in the marsh. The lotus trees cover him with their shade; the willows of the brook compass him about.”

You carry on as if you're living in a cheap fantasy novel about demons, sorcerers and the occult, with the odd unicorn, giant, zombie, witch and fairy to spice up the mix. Grow up and face reality.
i was wondering what came first, the need for a male and female animal or "Adam & "Eve" as human need to male and female?
"Judge not by appearance but judge by righteous judgment." Jesus Christ.
It's not the world of appearance that is important but the world of love and forgiveness that is invisible that is vital for healing and returning to God.
Ok that's well said, but not well thought out. These are two judgments. One is moral, the other concerns facts and how to arrive at truths concerning past events, in this case, long past. While there IS a connection to Adam and Christ that is inextricable from the Gospel--no sin no necessity for salvation from it--these musings on Genesis amount to "Jewish myths."
@@duncescotus2342 Morality is based on perceptual facts when judgment is involved. If you look at what people have done in the world and think of them as that like being racists or philanderers or liars, then you have judged them as Jesus warned us not to do. Making mistakes does not make you a different person than God created you to be, which is innocent and created in God's likeness.
Sins or mistakes are made. Sin is a lack of love. But committing them doesn't make you a sinner because no one has the power to change God's creation. We must change our minds, metanoia, to remember who God creates us to be
Matt 12.7 If you had known what these words mean, 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the innocent
This a GREAT interview!!! Ken does an amazing job and articulating and explaining Gensis and God's creation! Kirk is the best host! He never interrupts his guests! He listens very respectfully!
