Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and through it he being dead still speaks.

Hebrews 12:22-24 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels, to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are registered in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect

Hebrews 12:22-24 to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.

Acts 17:26 And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings

חָלַל Chalal Began קָרָא qara’ call שֵׁם shem name יְהוִה YHVH LORD AV translates as “begin” 52 times, “profane” 36 times, “pollute” 23 times, “defile” nine times, “break” four times, “wounded” three times, to profane, defile, pollute, desecrate

Hebrews 11:5-6 By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, "and was not found, because God had taken him"; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

Hebrews 11:5-6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him."

Days of Noah Demon/Human relations Men of renown…for wickedness Wickedness was great in the earth Every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually Corrupt before God Filled with violence

450ft long / 75ft wide / 45ft high The Flood of Noah Noah’s Ark 450ft long / 75ft wide / 45ft high

Source of the Great Flood The flood possibly began when the earth's crust was fractured releasing subterranean caverns of water and magma. The earth now exists with a broken crust like a jigsaw puzzle with pieces whose borders are defined by seismic activity. This picture shows locations of the mid oceanic ridge, which marks the boundary of the lithosphere plates. Mid Oceanic Ridge / Lithosphere Plates The flood possibly began when the earth's crust was fractured releasing subterranean caverns of water and magma.

The Flood of Noah The mountains were covered by 22.5 ft, and everything on land that breathed died.

Strata Sedimentary rock typically exists as distinct layers or strata. Video is not necessary, but may be downloaded from: http://geology.ref.ac/berthault/video/video04.mpg

Bryce Canyon National Park Strata Formation Larger particles settle-out first and smaller particle after, creating distinct layers. Differences in density, size, or shape of particles will cause them to descend at different speeds creating distinct strata. Bryce Canyon National Park Small Particles Medium Particles Layers form anytime particles are suspended in fluid then allowed to settle. Large Particles

Mount St. Helens The eruptions at Mt. St. Helens were an important geological event for creation science. Rapid deposition and erosion occurred providing a model of the type of activity taking place during the great Biblical flood of Noah. The eruptions at Mt. St. Helens was an important geological event because we witnessed and documented large-scale catastrophic processes that are otherwise extremely rare. For creation science, the event was most notable because of the rapid deposition and erosion that occurred providing a sizable model of the type of activity likely to have taken place during the great Biblical flood of Noah.

Rapid Strata Formation at Mt. St. Helens March 19, 1982 Rapid Strata Formation at Mt. St. Helens June 12, 1980 Fine laminae from only a millimeter thick to more than a meter high formed in just a few seconds each. A deposit more than 25 feet in thickness, and containing upwards of 100 thin layers accumulated in just one day from pyroclastic flows on June 12, 1980. May 18, 1980 Toutle River, Mt. St. Helens Stratified layers up to 400 feet thick formed as a result of landslides, air fall tephra, pyroclastic flow, and mudflows, during the Mt. St. Helens eruptions.

Rapid Erosion at Mt. St. Helens On March 19, 1982 a small eruption melted the snow that had accumulated in the crater over the winter, and a resulting mud flow eroded a canyon system up to 140 feet deep. The deepest of the canyons has affectionately been called the little Grand Canyon of the Toutle River, and is one-fortieth the size of its namesake. Little Grand Canyon Toutle River, Mt. St. Helens 1/40 size of Grand Canyon On March 19, 1982 a small eruption melted the snow causing a mud flow, which eroded a canyon system up to 140 feet deep.

Rapid Erosion at Mt. St. Helens “Spilling from the crater, Loowit Falls reshapes the north slope of the volcano. ‘You’d expect a hardrock canyon to be thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years old,’ says Peter Frenzen, monument scientist, ‘but this was cut in less than a decade.’” National Geographic, May 2000, p. 121. Rapid Erosion at Mt. St. Helens Loowit Falls Canyon Mt. St. Helens 100ft deep canyon in hard basaltic rock formed on Mt. St. Helens from avalanches.

The Grand Canyon Secular geologists have taught that the Colorado river eroded the Grand Canyon over 3-5 million years based on uniformitarianism assumptions.

Yellowstone’s Petrified Forest Across the valley rise the slopes of Specimen Ridge, but the forest you see there today is only the latest chapter in a remarkable story. Buried within the volcanic rocks that compose the mountain are twenty-seven distinct layers of fossil forests that flourished 50 million years ago.

Vertical Trees in Spirit Lake Trees that were sheered by the volcanic blast at Mt. St. Helens were found floating upright in Spirit Lake. This suggests a mechanisms for the formation of polystrate trees that was proposed by Steven Austin of the Institute for Creation Research. Upright Floating Logs at Mt. St. Helens Trees floating upright in Spirit Lake suggest a mechanisms for the formation of polystrate trees.
