Re: Just asking
Hi Zen,
Zen Deist writes:
Any biblical reference for massive earthquakes after the flood? Chapter\verse\quote?
quote:
Genesis 10:25 And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.
I don't know if the entire dry earth being divided would be classified as an earthquake, or a division of the land mass.
But in the days of Peleg the earth was divided.
Until then the land mass was in one place according to the Bible.
quote:
Genesis 1:9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
1:10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
There was a patch of dry land that was called earth.
I can find no place where the land was divided between Genesis 1:9 and Genesis 10:25.
I hope that satisfies your question and request for information.
You do agree that at one time there was one land mass that formed the land masses we have today don't you?
God Bless,

"John 5:39 (KJS) Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me."

Hi saab,

As pandion wrote a bit earlier: "However, if the massive earth upheaval that you imagine actually happened in the short time that is required to fit into your mythology, that much earth movement would have produced enough heat to reduce the entire surface of the earth to molten rock."
First things first. Zen asked for scripture text that said there was a great upheval after the flood. I provided that text.
Do you disagree that the text in the Bible I quoted provides such information?
Now to your statements as to heat that would be caused by such rapid movement and how it would be disapated.
There is enough water in the earth's mantel to fill our present oceans 7 times.
How and when did that water get there?
Now as to the OP and seashells on the mountains I find in Genesis 1:2 a land mass we call earth that is covered with water. This land mass was covered by water a long time before the flood of Noah, and for an undetermined duration.
And yes I have no problem in believing that God can do anything, as I believe Genesis 1:1.
Any entity that could create the universe would have the ability to do anything.
God Bless,
