The Recent Epoch
September 14
Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.
(Isaiah 24:1) KJV
The recent epoch is everything since Peleg’s tectonics. Few people have had a greater influence on this time than Charles Darwin.

August 28
In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
(Genesis 7:11-12) KJV
Noah’s flood was not only a world-wide catastrophe, it was also a process which involved several stages. It gives us a way to account for the stratigraphic column, Cambrian through Quaternary.

August 27
Out of the south cometh the whirlwind: and cold out of the north. By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened.
(Job 37:9-10) KJV
The Pleistocene is directly before what the geological timescale calls “present day.” It includes the ice age, or sequence of ice ages, depending on how contrived you make the narrative.

August 19
The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;
(Genesis 8:2) KJV
We finished a step-by-step deconstruction of the Paleozoic and Mesozoic, but there’s another issue that we’re going to account for: the Iridium anomaly.

And the waters prevailed on the earth one hundred and fifty days.
(Genesis 7:24) NKJV
“Continued inundation of low-lying continents?” sounds like a world-wide flood. In fact, it’s a way of saying world-wide flood without using the words “world-wide flood.”

And the waters prevailed on the earth one hundred and fifty days.
(Genesis 7:24) NKJV
As if “heavy rainfall and aridity” wasn’t a clue, then what better description of a world-wide flood could there be than “extensive inundation of continents“? That’s what happens in a world-wide flood.
Continue reading “Extensive Inundation of Continents”The Timeline for Noah’s Flood
And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, that the waters were dried up from the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark and looked, and indeed the surface of the ground was dry. And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dried.
(Genesis 8:13-14) NKJV
The timeline for Noah’s flood comes directly from scripture and this is the framework that we use to interpret evidence from the stratigraphic column.

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
(2 Timothy 2:15) KJV
Our copy of “Paleaeoecology and Palaeoenvironments of Late Cenozoic Mammals” came to us back in 1999 when we were living in the woods beside Jordan Lake in Chatham County, NC.

And Jesus said, “For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be made blind.”
(John 9:39) NKJV
A specific example of wilful blindness in popular science (SciPop) is in a work called Paleaeoecology and Palaeoenvironments of Late Cenozoic Mammals, Edited by Kathlyn M. Stewart and Kevin L. Seymour.
