It rained for 2 million years - actually it was Noah's Global Flood

There are now countless seemingly more plausible and believable explanations that the Geology shows the Earth is much younger than the millions of years and also that Noah's Flood is global. The global nature and suddenness of the Flood caused complex geological formation to occur suddenly. But if scientists didn't know that a global flood was real, then the geological formation must seem to have taken an incredibly long time to form.

New evidence have now been suggested in this article that perhaps a long time ago, there was an incredible amount of rainfall.

 I find these articles very interesting because I know how the Earth was formed - as described in God's Word - The Bible. The Secular world has developed very far fetched theories, based on unfounded or unproveable assumptions. One wrong assumption after another leads to the conclusion of the Earth being billions of years old. At the same time, oral history passed on through the generations that included a global flood was regarded as legends, myth and finally fairy tales. However, there are now various new scientific discoveries (the aim of this blog is to record these) such as the above article that finds scientific evidence piece by piece, that confirms Biblical events. Yet we have to read the articles like above and pick the evidence out, and observe that even if the found the truth in the evidence, the truth is being wrapped up in the old erroneous theories, not to mentioned the jargon like Triassic Period, the Carnian Pluvial Event, etc.

The article of course talks about evidence showing there was Rain for two million years. Read deeper into the article and see that the evidence they found is actually a huge amount of water deposited all over the world. This fact is true. But because they assume there is no global flood, so the water must have been deposited in 2 million years of non-stop rain. So the evidence is still true, that there was a huge amount of water - and we know this is due to the global flood.

"So do we know that this period of rain truly existed?....While scientists were expecting to find giant arid rocks, they instead found thickly layered rocks in giant lakes and evidence of coal swamps that confirmed their theory of a long period of rainfall..."

The amount of water is only the beginning of the story. Of course a lot of the explanation in the article are different to the Bible, but it is amazing how much the facts itself are aligned with the Bible - so the interesting challenge is to separate the facts from the opinions. So the article talks about the fact that there were lots of animals that became extinct before the Rain - we know that many animals must have died due to the sudden global flood.

 Its also interesting that the article blamed the rain to be caused by the burning of coal and severe climate change. It almost sounds as if it is trying to warn us of our so called present climate crisis. the coal is interesting since one of the link below explains that the Flood itself is one of the main factors that produced large amounts of coal. There are various other sources below that describes the scientific process in geology as a consequence of the global flood.

Evidence of a Young Earth that is consistent with the Biblical narrative has been documented in many different sources. A summary of the book with many scientific arguments are https://endtimesevents.blogspot.com/2020/07/notes-on-scientific-creationism-by.html. Another new discovery that forces a rethink on the age of the earth is https://endtimesevents.blogspot.com/2020/02/new-age-of-earth-or-how-long-it-took-to.html

End of the World? Why are the birds falling from the sky?

The article below tries to explain the recent mass deaths of birds and fish as something natural. It also attempts to debunk any references to apocalyptic prophecies.

One thing to note is that, whether these specific events are prophesied in the Bible, most of the prophecies in the Bible have a "Natural" or "Physical" causes. By definition, prophecies are revelations from God of the things that will happen in the future. By definition, prophecies or revelations does not mean that the events must occur without natural causes.

-------------

Five thousand dead blackbirds rained from the sky on the first day of the New Year in Arkansas. Then more dead birds fell in other states. Then huge fish kills were discovered in multiple US waterways.
And suddenly it became a worldwide phenomenon, with reports of mass die-offs of birds and fish in Sweden, Britain, Japan, Thailand, Brazil and beyond.
Doves, jellyfish, snapper, jackdaws... it seemed no species was immune.

Conspiracy theorists, doomsdayers and religious extremists warned that the end was nigh.
Could it be astronauts testing a potent sound beam to ward off aliens? The US military experimenting with satellite-powered energy weapons?
What about chemical sprays, meteor showers, or earthquakes activating pollutants from the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico?
"Birds" surged to the most searched term on The New York Times website.
Religious bloggers loaded their sites with Bible verse, Hosea 4:1-3: "The land dries up, and all who live in it waste away; the beasts of the field, the birds in the sky and the fish in the sea are swept away."
But as speculation roiled the blogosphere, wildlife experts rolled their eyes.
"It is not that unusual," said Kristen Schuler, scientist at the US Geological Survey's National Wildlife Center.
"There is nothing apocalyptic or anything that is necessarily out of the ordinary for what we would see in any given week."
Regarding the bird deaths in Arkansas, where the local custom is to set off fireworks to mark New Year's Eve, officials determined it was likely that the noise set off a deadly bird panic.
"It appears unusually loud noises, reported shortly before the birds began to fall, caused the birds to flush from a roost," the USGS National Wildlife Health Center said in a statement posted on the Arkansas Fish and Game Commission website.
"Additional fireworks in the area may have forced the birds to fly at a lower altitude than normal and hit houses, vehicles, trees and other objects. Blackbirds have poor night vision and typically do not fly at night."
In Louisiana, Schuler said it looked like cold weather might have killed off about 500 birds.
Meanwhile in Maryland, locals were spooked by reports of some two million dead fish in the Chesapeake Bay.
But officials were quick to assuage those concerns, saying the deaths were a result of an unusual cold snap, combined with an overpopulation of a species known as spot fish.
"Natural causes appear to be the reason for the deaths of the fish," said a statement by the Maryland Department of the Environment.
"Spot may have difficulty surviving in colder temperatures, and the species? susceptibility to winter kills is well-documented," it said, noting that surface water temperatures last month were the coldest in 25 years.
As for the bird and fish deaths elsewhere in the world, many were still under investigation.
According to the National Wildlife Federation's Doug Inkley, the most frequent cause of mass death in birds is disease, though pollution and "just plain accidents" can also trigger large scale die-offs. Often, people just are not aware of them.
"Most of the time these areas are not near human habitation such as in forests or in the woods," he said on CNN.
But in today's Internet Age, when hardly anything remains secret, word of unusual bird deaths has spread with unparalleled speed.
"In 1960 if a bunch of birds started falling from the sky it may have been noticed by some people. It may have gotten reported in the local paper, but it may never have gotten any further than that," said Robert Thompson, professor of pop culture at Syracuse University.
"Now some of these kinds of stories, because they get out there on the internet, if they are compelling enough they can immediately make this jump to national news," he said.
"Let's face it, big quantities of birds falling from the sky or fish going belly up is a pretty compelling story."

Preparing for Messiah's coming

Some serious preparations have been taking place for the coming of Messiah. The article below shows just how serious some people take this, though the majority of people in this world may think it is fantasy.

Interesting that people in the know (see article below) can see evidence around us pointing to the prophecies in the Book.

Jews raise millions to be ready for coming of the Messiah
JASON KOUTSOUKIS HERALD CORRESPONDENT
November 14, 2009


JERUSALEM: Yehuda Glick is a 44-year-old American-born Jew who spends most of every day preparing for the arrival of the Messiah in Jerusalem.

Since he became the executive director of the Temple Institute, Mr Glick's main task has been to supervise the manufacture of the utensils the high priests will need when the day arrives.

Crowns and other instruments made of solid gold fill glass cases in the Temple Institute museum in Jerusalem's Old City.

Other artefacts include an array of copper urns, trumpets made of silver and garments to be worn by the High Priest, woven from golden thread.

Musical instruments, including hand-made harps and lyres, lie ready to be brought to life upon the Messiah's appearance.

Catholic bishops meeting in Rome said they want the word of God to be heard through what could be considered an unlikely channel: iPods.

The bishops, attending a synod at the Vatican since October 5, called for increased distribution of the Bible "in the largest variety of our planet's languages".

They said in a message to believers that the printed text is no longer sufficient at a time when communication has been transformed by technology.

"The voice of the divine word must also resonate over the radio, Internet channels with virtual online distribution, CDs, DVDs, iPod ...", it said.

It went on to add to the list "television and cinema screens, in the press, at cultural and social events."

The synod on the theme of the "Word of God in the Life and Mission of the Church" ended on the weekend.
