4 Unit 6 RECORDS IN ROCK: THE FLOOD RECORDS IN ROCK: THE FLOOD Hav you sn a pictur or tlvision imag of a flood? Hav you vr sn a ral flood or livd through on? Somtims, th trmndous amount of watr is frightning. Watr riss abov th lvl whr it is normally found. This xtra watr in a flood can caus damag and vn thratn lif. Floods can caus grat damag, spcially if thy ar major floods. Th Bibl rcords th story of th gratst flood that has vr bn on th arth. It was a flood so grat that it dstroyd almost vry living thing on th arth. Only on man and his family livd through this grat flood: Noah. Through Noah, God also savd many othr kinds of birds and animals from th Flood. Lif on Earth aftr th Flood was somwhat diffrnt from th way it was bfor th Flood. In this LIFEPAC, you will xplor what th Bibl says about lif on arth bfor th Flood, during th Flood, and aftr th Flood. You will spcially focus on th rcords of th Flood that God has providd, both in th Bibl and in th physical parts of th arth. Objctivs Rad ths objctivs. Ths objctivs tll what you should b abl to do whn you hav compltd this LIFEPAC. Each sction will list according to th numbrs blow what objctivs will b mt in that sction. Whn you hav finishd this LIFEPAC, you should b abl to: 1. Dscrib Bibl rcords of th arth bfor, during, and aftr th Flood. 2. Dscrib physical rcords of th arth s past. 3. Explain th rlationship btwn Bibl rcords of th Flood and physical rcords. 4. Idntify changs in th arth aftr th Flood. 3

5 RECORDS IN ROCK: THE FLOOD Unit 6 1. BEFORE THE FLOOD God cratd vrything that xists. W oftn wondr what it was lik on Earth at th bginning of God s cration. What was it lik many thousands of yars ago on Earth? Fortunatly, w hav som rcords of what it was lik long ago. On of thos rcords is th Bibl. Th first lvn chaptrs of th Book of Gnsis dscrib God s cration of th world and what happnd in th arly part of God s cration. W can call this th Bibl Rcord of what happnd long ago. Th Bibl Rcord in Gnsis is spcially important in undrstanding God s intntion for human bings and what happnd to human bings in th arly part of God s cration. On vry important thing to rmmbr about th Bibl Rcord of long ago is that it is inspird by God. Th Bibl is th word of God. It was writtn by popl who wr inspird by God. It tlls us th truth that God wants all popl to know. By faith, w can know for crtain that th Bibl Rcord is tru. Objctivs Rviw ths objctivs. Whn you hav compltd this sction, you should b abl to: 1. Dscrib Bibl rcords of th arth bfor, during, and aftr th Flood. 2. Dscrib physical rcords of th arth s past. 3. Explain th rlationship btwn Bibl rcords of th Flood and physical rcords. 4 Sction 1

7 RECORDS IN ROCK: THE FLOOD Unit 6 Th scond main rcord that w hav of what it was lik on arth long ago can b calld th Physical Rcord. This is th rcord that w can find in rocks, fossils, and othr ancint rmains from long ago. Th Physical Rcord givs us vidnc that w can s and touch. With this vidnc of th Physical Rcord, scintists and othr popl attmpt to xplain what happnd long ago and what lif might hav bn lik on arth. Somtims ths xplanations from physical vidnc ar dvlopd into a thory. Ths thoris can somtims b usful in hlping to xplain what happnd long ago. Howvr, a thory may or may not b tru. A thory is simply man s attmpt to xplain from physical vidnc, obsrvation, and rasoning what happnd long ago or how things cam to b. On of th most important vnts on arth of long ago, dscribd in th Bibl, is a grat flood. It was so grat that w call it th Flood. Th vnts and rcord of th Flood ar found in Gnsis 6 9. In this LIFEPAC, you will xamin th Bibl Rcord and som parts of th Physical Rcord to look at lif on arth bfor, during, and aftr th Flood. In this sction of th LIFEPAC, w will xplor th priod bfor th Flood. Writ th corrct word on ach lin. 1.1 Th two main rcords w hav of long ago ar th a. Rcord and th b. Rcord. 1.2 Th Book of Gnsis is important in undrstanding God s for human bings. 1.3 By faith, w can know for crtain that th Bibl is. 1.4 Physical vidnc of long ago can b found in rocks,, and othr ancint rmains. 1.5 A to xplain what happnd long ago is dvlopd by popl from th physical vidnc, obsrvation, and rasoning. 6 Sction 1

8 Unit 6 RECORDS IN ROCK: THE FLOOD Th Bibl Rcord Rad Gnsis chaptrs 1, 2 and 3. Th Bibl tlls us that God cratd vrything that xists. H cratd vrything in an ordrly way. H cratd all of th plants and animals. God cratd man and woman as th gratst part of His cration. Abov all craturs, man and woman wr cratd in God s imag. God also saw that vrything H had cratd was good. Unfortunatly, man and woman wr tmptd by Satan (in th form of a srpnt) and disobyd God. As a rsult, sin, suffring, and dath ntrd God s cration. Evn aftr thy sinnd, God hlpd Adam and Ev by clothing thm. Howvr, God mad thm lav th Gardn of Edn to dwll lswhr on th arth. This is part of man s story bfor th Flood. Th Bibl dos not giv us lots of physical dtails about His cration bfor th Flood. Howvr, it is clar that many plants and animals as wll as human bings wr on th arth bfor th Flood. Lt us tak a look at som of th physical dtails of lif on arth bfor th Flood according to th Bibl Rcord. Plants and animals. God cratd many typs of plants. Grass, trs, and hrbs grw abundantly. Thy grw wll in ordr for humans and animals to hav a food supply. God also plantd a gardn that grw much food. God placd Adam and Ev in this gardn to tak good car of it. God lookd at vrything that h had mad and saw that it was vry good. As a rsult of th sin of Adam and Ev, w s that things changd among th plants and animals. God mad th srpnt crawl on his blly. Nw plants appard: thorns and thistls. Th thorns and thistls mad lif mor difficult for th popl. Howvr, plant lif continud to grow wll. A wid varity of animals was placd on th arth by God. Adam was abl to nam th animals. Th Bibl tlls us that God mad fish and birds. Cattl, rptils, and wildlif roamd th arth. All of ths animals wr xpctd to rproduc to kp th arth filld. This was part of God s intntion for th arth. Many bliv that human bings did not us animals for food bfor th tim of th Flood. In Gnsis 1:29-30, th Bibl says that God gav th sd-baring plants and sdbaring fruits of trs for man to at. God also gav plants for th animals to at, too. W will s that only latr, aftr th Flood, God gav animals to popl to us for food. God placd Adam and Ev in th Gardn of Edn to car for it. Sction 1 7

Th population of human bings bgan growing. Bfor th Flood, thr wr many popl upon th arth, according to th Bibl. Som of ths popl wr vn giants. Th Bibl shows that popl bfor th Flood must hav bn vry intllignt. For xampl, God told Adam to nam all of th animals (Gnsis 2:19). That must hav takn much undrstanding for Adam to do. Th Bibl also shows that popl bfor th Flood knw how to gardn and farm (Gnsis 2:15 and 4:2-3, 20). A man namd Tubal-Cain knw how to mak many kinds of tools out of bronz and iron (Gnsis 4:22). A man namd Jubal had many dscndants who knw how to mak and play musical instrumnts. Popl knw how to build houss and citis (Gnsis 4:17). Thy also knw how to kp rcords of days, wks, months, and yars (Gnsis 5). In othr words, th popl bfor th Flood had many talnts and skills. Thy wr intllignt, not ignorant. God gav popl bfor th Flood grat intllignc. H also gav thm a long lif as th Bibl Rcord shows (Gnsis 5). Prhaps th long liftim hlpd popl to grow gratly in knowldg and incras thir skills. Th Bibl shows that thy usd th gift of intllct that God had givn thm. Thy usd thir minds to sustain and improv thir livs on arth. But th Bibl also shows that popl on Earth continud to sin, and som popl causd harm to othrs. Cain killd Abl. Popl grw in wickdnss. Som popl usd thir intllignc to plan trribl things. Things grw so trribl among mn and womn on arth that God was sorry H had mad thm. So, God plannd to mak a nw bginning for His cration of Earth. H plannd to us on man, Noah, to bring about this chang. Noah was a man who walkd in God s ways. Cain killd Abl. Sction 1 9
