Over the next three days, we’ll consider a few items from Genesis 1–11, as this is the history in geology, biology, astronomy, and anthropology which is the key to building the right worldview and thus correctly understanding the present. This history is also the foundation for the rest of the Bible, for all doctrine, for a biblical worldview, and in fact, everything.

The Bible reveals that the earth has undergone a global flood (Genesis 6–9). If such a flood occurred in the past, we would expect to find evidence of it. What would we expect to find? Well, even local floods in the present lay down many feet of layers quickly. So looking at the present can give us some indication of what catastrophic processes can do. In other words, we are using observational science to understand processes.

As I often say, if there really was a worldwide (global) flood, you would expect to find billions of dead things (fossils) buried in rock layers, laid down by water, all over the earth. And that’s exactly what we find in the present. And the more this has been investigated by creation scientists, the more we understand that these fossil-bearing sedimentary layers over the earth had to be laid down quickly, not slowly.

What the Bible reveals concerning a global flood is the key to understanding the present regarding most of the fossil layers. Yes, observational science confirms the bible’s history in geology.
