āThe water receded steadily from the earth. At the end of the hundred and fifty days the water had gone down, and on the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.ā Genesis 8:3-4
Hello friends and merry Christmas! In honor of King Jesus, the āarkā of our salvation, this holiday season Iām looking at the first ark ā Noahās Ark ā and WHERE we would find it today! IN FACT, I talk all about it this week in my new video āOn Location from Noahās Ark (Sort of) with Andrew Jonesā at pastoraj.com! Why is it that people doubt this story?? The Bible teaches it. By reason we can CLEARLY see that the world was once flooded with water. The SEDIMENTARY rock layers all over the world indicate CATASTROPHIC plate tectonics and fly in the face of slow, gradual uniformitarian models. Then thereās the FOSSILIZATION of billions of animals BURRIED RAPIDLY pointing to the truth of what happened. The SOFT TISSUE we find in dinosaur and other supposedly āancientā creatures underscore it too. In case you havenāt heard, MARINE FOSSILS on the continents and mountain tops should give us a clue. Heck, even CARBON 14 DATING shows a young earth that is THOUSANDS, not millions, of years old. So why all the fuss about this cute little Bible story? Why not just START with believing Godās written testimony? That story hasnāt changed. And hereās the kicker: God even tells us WHERE the Ark came to rest after the catastrophic, global floodwaters receded ā Ararat. Itās a series of mountains in eastern Turkey. Believe it! Then, put your trust in Jesus (Godās true Ark) today!
