06/11/2024 – Day 009 – Genesis – Chapters 4 – 7 / “A Flood of Evidence – 40 Reasons Noah and Ark Still Matter by Ken Hamm and Bodie Hodge / Documentary Movie: “Is Genesis History?” // Post 1 of 2
Post 2 of 2 will be posted tomorrow morning.
Just FYI: The posting dated 06/10/2020 for Day 009 – our first cycle covered the “Nephilim” , chapter 6: verses 1 through 4. The posting dated 03/09/2022 for Day 009 covers the Cain and Abel story.
- “And behold, I myself am bringing floodwaters on the earth, to destroy from under heaven all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything that is on the earth shall die.” Genesis 6:17.
In my The Evidence Bible – NKJV , the commentary provides these to two New Testament verses for points to ponder about the flood:
“For in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah boarded the ark. They didn’t know until the flood came and swept them all away. So this is the way the coming of the Son of Man will be: …. This is why you also must be ready, because the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.” Matthew 24: 38 -39, 44 (Insert: I added verse 44 at the end)
“Through these the world by that time perished when it was flooded by water. But by the same word the present heavens and earth are held in store for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.” 2 Peter 3: 5-6

I have not read this book. I picked it out for Bodie Hodge authored an article, commenting on 2 Peter 3: 5-6 (verses quoted above) , entitled: “Rejecting a Global Flood”. Here is the Bible verses with verse #7 added: “For this they willfully forget, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water. But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.”
Here is a short paragraph excerpt from Bodie’s article:
“Although there is a tremendous physical evidence of a global flood (fossils in the rock layers all over the world), ultimately, it is a matter of trust in a perfect God who created everything (Genesis 1:1), knows everything (Colossians 2:3), has always been their (Revelation 22: 13, and cannot lie (Titus 1:2). The only alternative is to trust imperfect, fallible human beings who can only speculate on the past (see Romans 3:4).
…
A global Flood makes perfect sense, and it is wrong and foolish to stray from God’s Word just because some men disagree.”
I highly recommend the full length documentary film: “Is Genesis History”, narrated by Del Tackett. Del interviews an impressive lineup of reknowned scientists. The film is available on Prime I believe, if not YouTube, I can’t recall where we watched it years back. Here is the link to website:

Sit back, take notes and enjoy! Once again, “I don’t have nearly enough faith to be anything but a Christian!”
Soli Deo Gloria!
