2 Was the Flood Global?

3 Global or local flood? Secularists and compromising Christians deny the global flood. They claim there were floods in the past but all were localized. They claim there was a massive, near global, flood on Mars in the past, but deny that one took place on earth.

4 Barren Rock Scientists say “Catastrophic Near Global Flood occurred” 75% Covered by water Scientists say “Catastrophic Global Flood Impossible”

5 Evidence is how you look at it

6 Canyon formed in hours

7 What does the bible say? Genesis 7:11-12 “In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.”

8 Global Flood Genesis 7:19-20 “And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered. Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.”

9 Global Flood Genesis 7:21-23 “And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man: All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died. And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.”

10 Length of the flood The bible gives exact times of the flood waters abating. The total time the flood waters were upon the earth was 371 days.

11 New Testament Confirmations 2 Peter 2:5 “And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly”

12 New Testament Confirmations Luke 17:27 “They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.”

13 Study Scripture Students of the Word of God need to use Scripture to confirm Scripture

14 Evidences of a Global Flood If a global flood occurred what would we expect to find? Billions of dead things buried in rock layers laid down by water all over the earth. What do we find? Billions of dead things buried in rock layers laid down by water all over the earth.

15 Where did all the water go? The earth before the flood was vastly different than after the flood. All land was most likely one continent and broke up into different continents during and after the flood. The land was much more level before the flood. The science of Plate Tectonics shows that as the continents drifted apart the mountains would rise and the oceans would become vastly deeper.

16 Does the bible say anything about this? Psalm 104:5-9 “Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever. Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains. At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away. They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them. Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.”

22 Every nation has a flood story More than 200 flood stories have been documented from virtually every nation on earth. These stories have been passed down from generation to generation. This confirms the bible that all descendants are from Noah and his family, and have shared the story of the flood throughout all generations even as people scattered across the earth. If there were never a global flood, where did these stories come from?

23 Conclusion More than all the physical evidence that we can provide, Jesus Christ, our creator, spoke of the flood as real literal history, and the words recorded in Genesis by God himself cannot be disputed. Every word of His is true and we are not to add to His words lest we be found liars. (Proverbs 30:5-6)

24 Proverbs 30:5-6 “Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.”
