E-Book Overview
Earth's Catastrophic Past: Geology, Creation and the Flood - Volume 1 The Genesis Record of Creation and the Flood Defended These volumes construct a biblical-geologic model for earth history and conclude that the central claims of Genesis1-11 are true! - The long-awaited update to the groundbreaking book, The Genesis Flood by Dr. Whitcomb and Dr. Morris - Noah constructed an Ark by which two of every kind of air-breathing, land-dwelling animal were saved along with Noah’s family from a global flood - The confusion of languages at the Tower of Babel produced the language groups that are found around the world today. An alarming number of Christian leaders and teachers believe that God “created” through evolutionary processes over millions of years, that Adam and Eve descended from a hominid population, and that there has never been a global flood. Step-by-step, Dr. Snelling examines evolutionary interpretations of the geologic record and deconstructs that misplaced assumptions and conclusions on which those interpretations are based. By the end of Earth’s Catastrophic Past, readers will have their faith restored in Genesis as real, literal history, and be convinced that the scientific evidence, correctly discerned and applied, is indeed consistent with God’s record of our origins and history found in Genesis 1-11.
