Not Enough Water Sam?

Years ago Sam Miller told me the flood could not have happened. Why? There simply isn't enough water. Mount Everest is far too high and the Genesis account refers to all of the earth being covered with water. Therefore....

Yesterday on either the Discovery channel or something like that one, I heard the same argument again. Yet it was put forth by someone who should know better. The assumptions this man made were obvious since he was stating them clearly. The earth is billions of years old, the mountains are too high, we know how much water there is, blah blah blah.

Let me try to set straight those of you who think you know more than God.

1) God was there. You were not. For you to say what the world was like dogmatically requires you to know something you can not possibly know.


2) The whole water issue is just plain silly. Prior to the flood there was far less water on the earth's surface. The Biblical account gives three sources of the flood waters. Go read it again.

3) The mountains issue is even sillier. Read Psalm 104:

He established the earth upon its foundations, So that it will not totter forever and ever. You covered it with the deep as with a garment; The waters were standing above the mountains. At Your rebuke they fled, At the sound of Your thunder they hurried away. The mountains rose; the valleys sank down To the place which You established for them. You set a boundary that they may not pass over, So that they will not return to cover the earth.

God specifically tells us in a Psalm written 3,000 years before modern science came along that the mountains were not existing as they do now. Isn't this an obvious explanation. The assumptions of earth's geology are so pervasive, that to even question the idea of billions of years is literally unthinkable. Yet man's wisdom is demonstrated to be foolishness again.

I would write about this some more, but I am getting bored with having to think through every false thought and assumption when so many who have gone before me in the creationist movement have already taken these thoughts captive.

If you have never considered that God is actually able to speak and tell us about earth's history, then you are simply taking man's authority and wisdom over God's. Could anything be more foolish?
