The Global Flood helps to meet a great need today. It is comprehensive. It is aimed at those who are not experts in earth sciences. People everywhere need to understand the true significance of the year-long, mountain-covering Deluge that buried and fossilized trillions of marine and land animals and plants only a few thousand years ago. Over 95 percent of these fossils--even within sedimentary strata seen in the highest mountains of the world--are marine creatures We don't need to stretch the creation week of Genesis 1 to allow for this. The fossils were formed after, not before, Adam Without the enormous hydrodynamic work of the Flood, we could not know this. Now the Christian world has no excuse--if they ever had any--for adding millions and billions of years to earth history.
