- We filmed this segment for the Anniversary showing of "Is Genesis History?" on February 22, 2018. Dr. Del Tackett explores the Ark Encounter with three college students from Wheaton College. To learn more about the complete documentary, go to isgenesishisto...
Good for them. Regardless if people agree with them or not. Rare to hear young adults being critical, constructive thinkers. Society would be so much healthier with more of them.
@@MrWeezer55 It's much more realistic that a global flood happened than an asteroid destroying everything on Earth which make everything extinct, but with a flood is more possible when you have a family and a bunch of animals to keep the Earth growing and reproducing to get where we are today.
@@MrWeezer55 Actually it is more realistic with how the world looks today, how there is fossils found around the world and petrified forest found around the US. Sorry but you wouldn't find any remains of bones or fossils from an asteroid, since those animals were buried that had to been buried alive for their bones to be preserved so well for us to even observe and touch them. To conclude with my answer, yes a global flood is only way how we got sediment rock, fossils, petrified wood, seashells on top of mountains, and how we still have life today.
@@MrWeezer55 Well a lot of creationist in these videos are geologist and study fossils all the time then bring that all the fossils we find were indeed buried by a global disaster. They have also found cave paintings of man walking and hunting dinosaurs as well, so man has walked alongside dinosaurs. So there is proof that dinosaurs didn't die millions of years ago.
@@MrWeezer55 Nobody has proven that these dinosaurs died that long ago, these scientists that I speak of are very intelligent and have PhDs in science as well so they know exactly what they are talking about with their field of study. See there's a hidden agenda behind the whole millions of years theory because these modern scientist think that time can just do miraculous make things develop on there own over years which it's just assumptions. There's no clear evidence that those dinosaurs bones are even close to that old, but I can see your brainwashed by these millions and billions of years of process through evolution. Everyone was taught the myth of millions of years but doesn't mean what we are taught is necessarily true since we are all deceived by their words and not the clear evidence of a fact that millions of years wouldn't be possible.
@@MrWeezer55 There again just making claims out of scientist mouth when it's on their agenda to assume everything died over millions of years ago. They look at the same fossils as creationist do but they are different when one assumes between actually touching and observing the bones more thoroughly where the bones still have soft tissue in fossils so that doesn't make them millions of years old at all.
Thanks for sharing your journey with the rest of us !
Definitely the most beautiful theme park I've ever been to. Give yourselves a minimum of four days to appreciate the encounter in its entirety.
I remember when I came to faith in Christ I was reading Genesis and was thinking how cool it would be to have a life-sized ark built. This is it! How awesome!
This isn't the size it would be in the bible. In the bible it should have been 50 miles high up. Also this ark used steel something Noah didn't have access to.
@@hatersgotohell627 If you read about the account, you will find out that it was built to Specs according to Genesis.
@@hatersgotohell627 He didn’t have access to engineers, math, power tools, cranes that can lift tons, etc. But he built it with only family in the Bronze Agee
@@lonelyheartband , I don’t think Noah had a $100 million dollars and all the modern infrastructure.
Dr. Del Tackett is former president of the Focus on the Family Institute and a former Senior Vice President of Focus on the Family.
Focus on the Family's stated mission is "nurturing and defending the God-ordained institution of the family and promoting biblical truths worldwide"
What does that have to do with The Ark Exhibit? I'm a big fan of Dr Dobson. After he "left" Focus on the Family went down hill quick.
Absolutely love this. Thanks for sharing. I have a question.....are you wearing the armband that was given to you....I see later I the video that he is wearing it again...🤔
He might have several. Marketing.... the young man has energy.
"And the wolf will dwell with the lamb, And the leopard will lie down with the young goat, And the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; And a little boy (na'ar) will lead them. Also the cow and the bear will graze, Their young will lie down together, And the lion will eat straw like the ox. The nursing child will play by the hole of the cobra, And the weaned child will put his hand on the viper's den. They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain, For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD As the waters cover the sea." Yeshayahu/Isaiah 11:6-9 :)
Looking forward to paradise earth and everlasting life in a perfect body🙏💕
The Ark Encounter and Creation Museum are both amazing. I recommend them both.
I wonder how many more times that kid can say “like” in a sentence
For secularists to complain: "The Bible is an old antiquated and outdated book," it could be said that the ideas of 18th/19th century are old ideas. Strict naturalism is a limited attitude. Plus, for those who think the "Ark" is an absurd concept, there's the "Svalbard Global Seed Vault."
@@ozowen5961 According to you. You must be one of the leading minds in your field. How amazing. It takes a special somebody to come to such an amazing conclusion!
@@ozowen5961 All accounted for in catastrophism and not uniformiarianism. Geologists aren't looking for catastrophism in their thinking, so maybe it's obvious they don't see it.
@@ozowen5961 yet Jesus tells us the world is a carcus that we live on. There is Soo much they DON'T tell us because it doesn't fit into their paradigm of grant funding...look into the other option that our earth is nothing more that a heap of dead things jumbled together that our CREATOR made...pretty interesting that there is SCIENTIFIC evidence to back up these claims but the main stream cabal of evil sweeps it under the proverbial rug to maintain Dominion over unwashed masses.....
@@ozowen5961 science is actually looking at a global flood to explain the deposits of fossil records...
@@ozowen5961 which science? Depends on what articles you read. More and more archiologists are looking at the mass extinction event that has fossils in layers preserved as they are. More and more evidence points to a world wide catyclism that happened all at once. Sorry you can not allow the "possiblity" of such a thing taking place, even as the story remains today in the human collective across all cultures...
I hope to visit The Ark in the future. It looks fun and wonderful to experience.
Alex needs to work on his use of the word "like" lol.
"Like" is the new "ugh."
I think Aleks pronounced 'like' very well. lol
Seems like the kids' parents did a pretty good job! 👍🏿😎
@@rickoshay6554 i say like and ugh alot lmao
Wow! I'm not the only one!
Absolutely beautiful woodworking. First class work, including the animal models. Fascinating new ideas. I especially like the “types.” The horse type appears to be quite similar to Merychippus, which existed in North America about 35 million years ago and is obviously an ancestor of the modern horse. It’s nice to see creationists embrace evolution for a change. Keep up the good work!
Jimwright3566: creatonists ( at the Arc Encounter) do NOT embrace evolution, but we DO recognize that whatever made the Arc voyage had genetic characteristics that gave rise to ALL the midern variations. Differentiation, adaptation, development; call it what you will… but NOT EVOLUTION!
To say 35 million years with no credible proof proves u have faith in evolution just as people have faith in God
It’s NOT EVOLUTION!
It’s differentiation/speciation. A lizard never became a horse, they are DIFFERENT KINDS ( BARAMIN)!
This is amazing. Thanks for sharing 🙂
I live in a camper in some woods. Each time a bad storm comes it makes me think of Noah's family on the ark. I think about the women being scared of the thunder. The motion could have made them seasick. Did they pack any herbs for it? Did they see the lightning coming in the top?
Were the animals making noises? Were cats running around on the wooden beams? How many cats would be needed to control rats and mice?
There would have been only 2 of the rodent kind and 2 of the feline kind.
Wonderful to see young people who have faith in God and His Word!
why cages?
Why does it have a keel? It wasn't going anywhere... IMHO
*Visits theme park*
"This is real."
well done...the girl brings up great points
Actually Noah built a raft to put his kids and goats on when the river overflowed it’s banks. Okay, I made that up, but what is more believable?
Noah was a workhorse
According to a new, Harvard-led study, geochemical calculations about the interior of the planet’s water storage capacity suggests Earth’s primordial ocean 3 to 4 billion years ago may have been one to two times larger than it is today, and possibly covered the planet’s entire surface. So, they agree that there was enough water to cover the earths surface.
Alex like, is like, kinda like, like, you know, like...
All I know is that if noah does a second build in the age to come for a living tutorial...I hope I get to help..I've been a carpenter for 50 years.
Wow huge🔥Thought there was only about 10 kinds of animals brought on
@@YouToobeism I was just thinking giraffe and zebra type. Didn't even cross my mind about cows lol probably only considered that small amount and kind cause of only what I've ever seen shown in pics and shows etc
Does anyone really believe that Noah lived to 950 years old? Seriously.
950 months. I don’t think they were quite up to date on their math....or they plain lied
That is nothing. Somebody rose from the dead!
Noah did NOT live to be 950 years old - that was Methuselah.
@@bina21 Nobody ever did.
That guy said " like " so many times it was so hard to listen to.
He's just a nervous kid.
Science can easily support a Young Earth viewpoint. The problem is that, for decades, public schools, colleges, and universities have been straining the upper limits of how old the earth can be. It seems that the billions of years theories are based on sheer belief and guesses far far above what any science can even begin to prove. They must believe in eons of time to give evolution a chance to work. That pushes their viewpoint into the realm of religion which means the current beliefs and theories are the atheist religion being pushed on children and young people. I thought they were against religion being promoted in school!? If we only allow science to speak for itself (instead of twisting it out of shape to accommodate an evolutionary world view) then it becomes entirely feasible to believe every word of the Bible (God's word to humanity).
"That pushes their viewpoint into the realm of religion which means the current beliefs and theories are the atheist religion being pushed on children and young people. I thought they were against religion being promoted in school!?"
Dear David,
Please look up the definition of atheism and religion.
Religion is belief in a god or gods.
Atheism is the absence of belief in a god or gods.
Atheism is the absence of religion.
The absence of religion is not religion.
+James Richard Wiley -- Atheism is still an "-ism". It is still a belief system which by definition is a Religion. Whether or not your belief is in a god, gods, or no god, it is still Religious because you cannot show definitive proof either way. Therefore atheism is a religion by definition.
+Larry Johnston -- Thanks Larry! Those are some interesting sites that I haven't seen before. I have had discussions with athiest in the past that went nowhere because 1) you couldn't get them to agree on a single fact, and 2) all their arguments were dependent on things that themselves are not stable and can be argued against. It was like arguing with a child who didn't want to do his homework or chores continually using a spiders web of reasons why he shouldn't have to. They were too smug and right in their own eyes to hear what I had to say. You could give them an impeccable arguement and they would find a way to weasle out of it. The goal is their soul. I don't want anyone to go to hell, so I should do my best to win them over. I'll look more at the resources that you pointed out. Thanks again!
David AM rubbish, the fact that we can see stars that are more than 100 000 light years away, is proof the universe is more than 100 000 years old.
David AM rubbish, the definition of religion (or part there of) is a belief in a god (gods, goddsses, pantheons) and the associated dogma. Atheism has no belief in gods, therefore simply doesnt qualify, no matter any other similarities. Atheism also has no dogma, just a lack of belief in a god ... nothing more, nothing less.
Dig it!
When you see people use God's model to build boat people praise them, but when God show Noah the plan to build an Ark and satan's followers says it is wrong and not real. Christian need to stand up to defend our faith. Noah , the flood, and the Ark is real. Every culture know about the flood story.
I think it is a doctrine issue and it’s therefore a salvation issue in second John epistle he said if you don’t have the doctrines of Christ you don’t have God well the biblical account of the fall and Adam and Eve in the flood and all of that is also referred to by Peter in his epistles both of them and so if you reject these doctrines you’re rejecting the doctrine of Christ therefore you don’t have God
That kid says "like" way too much
Being a bit picky?
@@WKGWOMANINTN
Like, no
It dosnt seem to make any sense to me. The Bible says " all animals " , "kind" refers to species. If it dosnt why was a dove and a raven onboard ? Surely one "kind" of bird, like a goose would have been enough.
Great point. Forgot about the different birds. But Ken Hamm is worried about the money and keeping his scam going
The word "dove" in Hebrew is believed to mean "warm blooded". Whereas the word "raven" used in Genesis describes a "textured dark colored flying" animal. So if "dove" was of what we'd think of as "bird kind" and "raven" was what we'd classify as a flying reptile. That does make sense is reference to "kind" of animal as it relates to Noah's ark.
This also does make sense in the metaphoric depiction of "the raven" (that didn't return to the ark); having a similar property to Satan (the dragon) "roaming the earth" (Job 1:7). Dragons are often depicted as reptiles. So yes, the "raven" that Noah released from the ark; very well may have been in the "terodactyl" (Pterodactyl) family.
Now the same word "raven" is used in later Bible stories; of which we interpret that to be a black bird (which today are also known as crows.) Yet keep in mind that ancient Hebrew is a language of descriptors and not specifically a language of word nuance as Greek, Latin or English are. In English, a "raven" is a specific species of bird and not just a "textured dark colored flying animal".
.
Ken Hamm needs to focus on Jesus instead of telling people they’re not christians if they don’t believe in HIS interpretation of the creation of the universe
AND THE LAMB WILL DWELL WITH THE WOLF
@@TheElizabethashby
Daft
Too crowded for me.
Noah's ark was rectangle
Noah’s ark was a Bronze Age parable that spread through oral history to keep people from breaking “gods” law
I don't care about hearing these students talking. Who cares what they think? I want to see the Ark.
I get that everyone in the entire Earth was evil and violent, even the little kids, and that they all deserved to die a horrible death. They
are getting their just rewards in Hell for all eternity. Why did He drown all those puppies and kittens, and baby pandas, and joey kangaroos in the flood? What did they have to do with people being evil? The Egyptians revered cats and dogs. Why did YHWH kill all the first born kittens and puppies and baby animals with the 10th plague? Pharaoh wanted to let the people go, but YHWH hardened his heart and overrode his free will. Why does YHWH hate baby animals so much?
I guess, if humans were not violent and corrupted, that never would have taken place to begin with. Its our fault, we brought it upon the animals. Its like that corona virus, people eat weird things, get infected and kill thousands of animals infected by corona, and not to mention radiation from our technology. The problem lies with us. Not Him.
Demons would not be satisfied with just corrupting humans. But all of Gods creation.
The video is right but Ken Ham is wrong. I own the video and I'm sure that Genesis is history. The Earth is young, the account of Noah's flood is true. But Ken Ham's depiction of the ark actually contradicts the bible. Also the labor intensive scenario for the animal care he depicts is unwarranted. In the wild, animals feed themselves, avoid each other without human supervision.
Dobbin Burkhart It may not be 100% accurate but it does a great job of inspiring dialogue, just like what occurred in this video.
The flood could not be real. The ARK would require a year of fresh water for all the animals as the water outside is contaminated with salt and billions of dead things.
@@Syrnian I don't want to be the spoiler here, but uhm, that rain that felt down, i'm sure Noah had a system to capture the water, it sure wasn't polluted as it is now these days, the air was much healthier in his days, and he could have boiled the water before using or drinking it. ( survival video's a recommendation) So uhm, its fair to say, that the requirement for water in order to survive, was not an issue. And for that reason, he could have even used the water surrounding the arc. By boiling the water.
Noah brought along a wood stove so he could boil water?
That is how animals in the wild exist now, but why assume it was the same back then?
Like like, like, like, and like, like.
Christians arent supposed to observe xmas🙁🙁🙁🙁
It's ironic that those of a different opinion feel the need to defend their own by tearing down others. Have your own opinion and allow others to differ from it. For me my belief in God is not because of what someone convinced me about but rather what the spirit has taught me. I learn truth wherever I find it with the help from the spirit. Feel free to disagree with me but I know what I know.
@@ozowen5961 I tend to agree. It's fine people believing something, but roping in children who haven't taken everything into account and creating people who walk through life in a way that seems to ignore the finer details of the world around us it sad to see. I don't 100% disagree with the idea of people believing in God, as there is something abstract there, that can't be disproven, and it may help them through. What I can disagree with is people being oblivious to, for example, climate change, which is a pretty big problem that some try to ignore
Its really scary to realize there so much ignorance
Tell me about it
Like Noah lived to 950 years old. And people buy into this...
@@stevendelucas6311 isn't Anything possible through the LORD God?
@@Yuri_Jonker Possible or probably. You’re only using one text to ascertain all of your “facts.” Not good debating prep. Not good science.
@@Yuri_Jonker Ken Hamm needs to focus on Jesus instead of telling people they’re not real christians if they don’t believe in a literal 6 day creation of the universe
We walked away from God and sinned. He warned us what would happen if we did and we still do today. Many say I am a Christian, but don't live a holy life. Strive to live without sin and if you make a mistake we can go to our Lord Jesus Christ who died for our sin.
Absolutely! If you sin, just ask for forgiveness! Nothing is better than praising a god that killed himself to appease himself of the sins of mankind.
Just another fantasy story from the encyclopedia of nonsense.
GOD bless U
Search out the pagan holidays your talking about
Anyone who thinks the ark is possible needs to first volunteer at an animal shelter. Even an animal shelter that deals with just one species, like cats. It's sad but these people are desperate to avoid facing reality.
Here is reality. Get a copy of my book, For Such A Time As This: Let My People Go, You End-Times Doomsday Sayers! Copy and paste the title into the You Tube search bar and you can watch a presentation. The point with the video is that if we have missed such minor issues, what else of major importance have we missed? Nero was "666". He committed suicide in June AD 68 after a 3 1/2 year persecution against the Christians after the city of Rome burned. Galba was next on the throne, but for a short time. He was killed in January AD 69. He set up an image of Nero in the temple and demanded that the Jews worship it. This was the abomination of desolation prophesied by Daniel and Jesus. It was also the sign for the Christians to flee to the mountains. When the Roman forces overtook the city of Jerusalem in AD 70 the Jews retreated to the temple and were on the wall defending themselves. The Roman forces were catapulting stones over the wall and onto the Jews that weighed a talent, thereabouts 100 lbs. This was fulfillment of John's prophecy of the hailstones falling from the skies in the latter days that weighed a talent. While this was occurring the Jews were shouting "The Son cometh!" You can get a copy of my book at Xulon Press, Barnes & Nobles, or Amazon Books. Get ready to walk on water!
I skimmed over your paragraph......LOL
How do animals feed themselves in the wild without human help? I think the ark was entirely self service. 99% of the species that ever live were extincted by the flood. Many additional species may have ended on the ark. Some carnivore may have wiped out the giant ground sloths as food during the voyage.
Yep. Cats are obligate carnivores. What did they feed them?
Uhm, the very fact that they reconstructed it in Kentucky, is proof that the arc was capable of holding on water. You totally missed out that point. Moses wrote those pages, thousand of years ago, and we see of the evidence of the reconstruction; this large mega structure is capable of floating. And you question its reality? That's ironic.
Is Genesis History? Yes. Bible should be back in education As A History Book.
I think creation is a salvation issue because if you don't believe the Genesis account, you don't believe God.
@@ozowen5961 - Really. You get the ol' "whatever" from me. Those are your claims.
Here is one of my claims -the Earth is not ancient.
Here's another one of my claims - the Bible is more authoritative than any scientist or collection of scientists on any subject.
@@ozowen5961 - You, like many others, misconstrue hypothesis for evidence. No human has witnessed either the Big Bang or the creation of Earth by God, but, of course, God Himself is a witness and He has given his testimony.
"Literal interpretation of scripture, especially the early texts is objectively wrong."
You may wish to call God a liar if you'd like but I will not do so nor take your word for it.
"... the Earth is ancient ...". It would seem that way if you were looking at it through a _uniformitarian_ paradigm. I do not see through such a paradigm, nor does God's Word give me a reason to do so but quite the opposite. I have a God who creates the heavens and the Earth ex nihilo, out of nothing, That is not a uniform process.
@@ozowen5961 - "1) ... NOT the only way ...". Please tell me of another.
@@ozowen5961 - "Not interested in evidence free assertions"
That's a load of manure. Your first response in this thread was nothing more than a bunch of evidence-free assertions. Give me a break.
@@ozowen5961 - The word of God is evidence just as a man's word in a court of law is evidence. As for interpretation, Genesis speaks plainly and does not need interpretation except from Hebrew to English. As I said in my OP, you either believe God or you don't.
Summary: “so... how did you become a creationist?”
Errrr... I was indoctrinated
I love it when they see the dinosaurs and there are no follow up questions. 😂
Nah, thats how people become evolutionists. Look in any school textbook dude.
Wayne C -- Exactly. Summary: "so... how did you become an evolutionist?"
Errrr... I was indoctrinated by almost two decades of false teaching from gradeschool through college. And now that I've been introduced to the Creationist message I reject it out of hand because I'm so, so, so INDOCTRINATED. Wow! I'm really messed up. I need to get re-educated on the facts and science that shows almost all of evolutionary teaching is a metaphysical joke.

I wasn't raised in the church, and my K-12 education was in public schools where "evolution" is the gospel. Not once did I or my classmates ever think to question it. Because it's what we were taught by the authorities in our life. We were never even informed that others had opposing views to this theory, or that there was evidence that contradicts the Darwinian narrative. Even when I became a Christian it took some time for me to investigate this matter.
Is Genesis history? in a word no.
Wauw, you'd prefer being related to primal slime? evolution theory? Being family of apes and bananas? No thanks, mine were humans from day one, and i'm totally fine with that.
@@ozowen5961 Just the idea of a flood covering every land in the world is retarded. They would literally just suffocate to death. And when your counter argument is literally just saying it's magic or "how would you know, you werent there" and "This book says so", it's an insult to my intelligence.
@@rebeccad6840 ignore the naysayers. As the Bible says Romans 1:18-24 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.
