The Flood

When you begin to ponder the terrible judgment of the Flood waters that God used to completely destroy the first world, then immediately a number of perplexing problems present themselves. For example:

• How can we explain the coming together of all the animals and birds from all parts of the world at one time?
• How was it possible for eight people to feed and provide drink for all the different animals in the Ark for over a year? How was it possible for them to clean the Ark?
• Where did all the water come from? Is there actually enough water on our planet to cover the entire earth?
• How could the Ark accommodate the natural increase of the animals?
• Is the alleged discovery of the remains of Noah's Ark on Mount Ararat by a Russian aviator a true account?
• What became of all the water when the Flood subsided?
• Did the Flood waters rise to an elevation to cover such lofty heights as Pike's Peak, Mount Everest, Mount McKinley?
• When did the Flood begin? How long did it last?
• Where did Noah acquire the 'know-how' for building such a spacious and durable Ark?
• How can we account for the rapid progress of the nations following the Flood?
• What was the population?
