Is Noah's Ark and the Flood a Myth or Biblical History?

Three weeks ago, "Genesis: Paradise Lost," a new faith-based documentary was released in the United States bringing the Bible to life on over 1200 screens across the country. This movie is another effort to promote the Genesis record of the Bible with life miraculously created by the power of God in six literal days, in contrast with a naturalistic explanation of life’s origin, as the product of slow evolutionary processes over millions of years. While we do not subscribe to all the church doctrines that appear in the movie’s message, we commend the producers for clearly setting out a contrast between an explanation for the origin of life based on the authority of God’s word the Bible, and the explanation found in school textbooks based on man’s word. Both groups, creationists and evolutionists, examine the same evidence. One group interprets the evidence through man’s word and a lens of millions of years, and the other group interprets the evidence through God’s word, the explanation provided by the Creator Himself.
