DoUwant2go2Heaven?;562289 said:You have the spirit of the pharisees and Sadducees' Whar67. They saw miracles performed right before their eyes and they still denied Jesus Christ. It's truly a shame that people will only believe when it's far too late.
ThaChozenWun;562385 said:So the same carbon dating that proves the Earth is older than bible time and the same carbon dating that lends a hand to proving evolution happened carbon dates this and you believe this for some reason and not the other two?
DoUwant2go2Heaven?;564272 said:Carbon dating does not prove that the earth is billions of years old. You just "believe" that it does. Stop mixing assumptions with truth.
VIBE86;562427 said:Right?
Also, to find wood thats 4,800 years old is insane and interesting if it is true. Why hasn't it rotted yet though? You, DoUWant2, say that Jesus performed miracles in front of people and they still doubted, so basically you're saying that this wood is a miracle, right?
God nor Jesus built this Ark, Noah did. It was never mentioned to be a special kind of wood. It just seems or is impossible for wood to last this long under the ground.
Where was Noah back then when he made the Ark, and how far is Turkey from that today?
I'm serious, not trying to be a smart ass or anything. I'm curious to this now, but just seems impossible.

It would be physically impossible to fit all species of animals on a boat of those dimensions.
Plus God commanded just two of every kind and their food. Well some animals are food for others, that would wipe out their species.
Noah would have had to travel nearly 60 million square miles on land and nearly 200 million globally to gather every animal on the earth in a couple days, yet he didn't leave the Middle East, and keep in mind he fed these animals for over a year.
It's not talking about animals. It's talking about types of people.
ThaChozenWun;562486 said:It is very rare to discover wood that old but it has happened, also it was discovered buried in the moutain side, the entire mountain is cold and covered in snow. The cold and rock more than likely kept it from rotting and kept microorganisms from eating it. The same how mammoths have been found with their whole body intact, fur and all. If this was found in a warmer or drier climate then I would be really amazed but being it was found in a frozen mountain its not really suprising to me its still intact and not rotted. And yea Noah built the ark so it isnt any sort of magical wood, though people will claim "God put a spell on it to prove to us later its existance thats why its still good". Plus all the other Ark stories in the past have all been hoaxes so who knows. If it is somehow found to be the acual ark (carbon dating, bones, shit inscribed in the wood, fossils perhaps, salt water traces, etc.. alot would have to be found to directly point it toward the story) than i guess we would all at least know the ark story is true. Hard to imagine a man like noah with no real tools or anything built something lookin like this though, it never said god helped, just that Noah built it so again something which makes me think this story is fugazee.

The team say they recovered wooden specimens from a structure on Mount Ararat in eastern Turkey that carbon dating proved was 4,800 years old, around the same time the ark is said to have been afloat.

DoUwant2go2Heaven?;564338 said:He spent 120 years building the Ark. Just because they didn't have power tools like we do today, doesn't mean that the task couldn't be accomplished. And God did help in the building of the Ark. He provided wisdom, instruction, and knowledge. There is no way Noah could have completed the Ark if God wasn't in it.
Who said I needed proof to validate my beliefs? I posted this to raise awareness to other people. My belief in God causes me to post information like this. Nobody can tell me Jesus Christ isn't God. My faith rests in His life and because it does, I will live forever with Him in His kingdom. Because I know this to be true, I proclaim His truth to all who have ears to hear. I want everybody in my sphere of influence to live with Jesus for all eternity too. Heaven is real and all those who love the Lord will enter into His rests.

And Step;564126 said:No, he doesn't. The Pharasees and Saducees were religious people who believed in the strict literal interpretation of OT Law. They didn't deny Biblical History or God. They just denied the authenticity of Jesus as the promised Messiah and fulfilment of Prophecy.
Posting a youtube video that has not been authenticated doesn't equal denying Jesus. For all we know, that could have been a slave ship.
Step your Biblical comparison game up .
