Real Floods Have Real Dates

[Season 2, Episode 7]On this episode, Steve and Jennifer discuss a video that was released mid-January, in which a well-known Christian leader stated his opinion that Noah's Flood could have been a local flood. He gave reasons why he believes this is a faithful interpretation of the biblical text. This topic spread like wildfire on social media, with opinions sharply divided.The geographical extent of Noah's Flood will not be determined based on opinion alone, or even based on the biblical text alone. Extra-biblical data is needed to settle the question, which should not be difficult to find for an event of such massive proportions (if it really happened in history). The most foundational question to answer is this: what is the date of Noah's Flood?Many groups and individuals teach on Noah's Flood, but do not answer the most basic questions. Real floods have real dates, and if Christianity is a history-based religion, we must be able to anchor Noah's Flood to the real world.Also discussed on this episode:-Research Update: Understanding the Pillar of Fire-Helen's View: Special interview with Eldora Bonges, 99 years oldREAD the full newsletter and show notes and view images online at https://www.biblicalchronologist.org/store/archives/BCM_February_2024.htmlSUBSCRIBE to The BC Messenger email list at https://www.biblicalchronologist.org/store/BCM_email.phpGot questions or comments?
