Historical Evidence found explaining Natural Phenomena
In 1912 Alfred Wegener postulated the idea that the earth’s continents were once a continuous land mass, coining the term Pangaea. An ancient book has been published providing verification by EYE WITNESSES to his concept. This source provides additional proof so other Exciting Earth Theories Confirmed like dinosaurs, cave men, and a round Earth.
Pangaea (modern concept of a super continent splitting to form our current continents) – Genesis 10:25 written around 1425 B.C. states “to Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided;” Peleg live around 2243 B.C.
Dinosaurs
Job 40:15-24 identifies the “Behemoth.” This is an accurate description of a Brontosaurus (a sauropod). (The term “dinosaur” was coined by Richard Owen in 1842.) Although not the 1st book in the Bible, Job is generally considered the oldest. Job lived around 2600-2500 B.C.
Godzilla
Ishirō Honda’s 1954 Sifi film Godzilla introduced this creature to a wide audience. However, Leviathan in Job 41, (some proposed it as a crocodile) indicates it was far more. “Strength dwells in his neck, flame goes out of his mouth, he regards iron as straw, etc.”
Rainbows
Genesis 9:9-17 written around 1425 B.C. “I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. It shall be when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud . . . the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.”
Cave Men
People have lived in caves from the earliest historical accounts starting with Job 30:6 (2600-2500 B.C.) and is also referred in the Bible (translated as “Book”) in Genesis 18-19, Judges 6:2, 1st Kings 19:9, Psalm 142, Hebrews 11:38. We also know that modern terrorists live in caves as well as Shōichi Yokoi a Japanese army sergeant, who hid for twenty-eight years in an island’s underground jungle cave because he didn’t know WWII was over.
Round Earth
A round Earth was generally accepted as truth in 2500-2600 B.C. There are four references that stated the earth is round, but was ignored by scholars for hundreds of years. For example it was known in Job 22:14 & 26:10, as well as in Proverbs 8:27 (1000 B.C.) and in Isaiah 40:22 (800 B.C.). Finally, it was proven by Aristotle when he provided evidence for the spherical shape of the Earth on empirical grounds by around 330 BC. (Many things are accepted as truth without proof – people died of thirst before 1800 A.D. when water was discovered to be H2O.)
Additional Confirmed Exciting Earth Theories
1) Women as Leaders – Women become leaders when men refuse, were scared or unavailable. Deborah was the 4th judge (national leader) of the Israelites 1253 B.C. in Judges 4.
A woman pastor was chosen by John in 2nd John in 90-95 A.D. (The Elder John to the elect lady and her children . . grace MERCY and peace will . . ) The salutation MERCY was only extended to pastors in the New Testament since there was so great a responsibility given to them.
2) Swallowed by a Whale or Great Fish – Jonah, after being swallowed by a great fish (whale? Maybe), was a putrid yellowish/green color after spending 3 days in the fish’s belly’s acid, walked through the city and brought it back to obeying God.
February 1891 – Whaler Jamey Bartley – As a result of his fifteen hours inside the whale’s stomach, Bartley lost all the hair on his body and was blind for the rest of his life. His skin was bleached to an unnatural whiteness that gave the appearance of being bloodless, although he was healthy)
3) Signs and Wonders in the Sky – Lunar Eclipses on Jewish feast days are a warning to them. Four 2015-2016 eclipses warned the Jews about Hamas, Hezbollah and ISIS attacks and Obama’s lack of UN support.
A solar eclipse warned the city of Nineveh in 800-900 B.C. of impending doom if they did not repent of evil! Jonah who had a shocking look of his body after being inside a great fish for days, walked through the city. As a result most of the city (changed from their way of living) repented from their evil ways and the city was saved.
