    I know in past blogs we have discussed Gobekli Tepe and how it shows the oldest of human structures popped up around where Noah’s ark landed.This video should be taken with a grain of salt because it is secular and does not explicitly endorse a Biblical perspective on a world flood.If you use some common…

    How should Genesis 1 be understood and I will argue that it should be viewed a literally as possible.Let us start with the basics and the Greek word Genesis which means beginings as does the Hebrew word b’reishit mean literally “from the head” but in practical terms also means beginnings as well.Now let us look…
