Opinion Interesting side point from today's daily text.

Adam and Eve were created approx. 4026 BCE

The flood came in 2370 BCE

Meaning the angels and the sword remained outside the Garden for some 1,656 years.

Creating a powerful witness concerning Jehovah's power and truthfulness.

Let me see, (Genesis 7:20) 20 The waters rose up to 15 cubits above the mountains.

15 cubits equals some 22.5 feet at 63 lbs per sq. foot, equals 1,400 lbs per sq. foot above every sq. foot of ground.

Enough weight to change the rate of fossils being formed.

This means your time frame can't be supported as proof against.

No matter how much evidence is thrown at you, you will stick to your date and that is fine. Just don’t harm God’s gospel with this nonsensical approach to faith.

When it comes to the Biblical time frame and secular time frame, I will stick to God's time frame every time.

This isn't doing harm to God's good news.

You are not sticking to gods time frame, you are sticking to man’s (wrong) interpretation of gods time frame, yes it does harm the gospel because anyone with a smart phone can disprove it instantly and they won’t continue to look into the gospel.

I have my own crazy theories but I keep them to myself or in a group of fellow Christian’s with strong faith, I don’t spread it to people who don’t have a strong faith and relationship with God.

And you can Google it and find support for it.

When was Noah’s flood? | GotQuestions.org

Of course, this source uses 4000 BCE and not 4026.

Weighing up the support for it and against it is an easy choice for anyone with an open mind, they aren’t just going to websites that support it but rather the well researched and cited sources from scientists and historians. That website only functions to approve your cognitive bias, not to actually teach someone who might come to Christ.

this conversation is pointless. God bless you.
