Was there enough water?

Many skeptics claim there couldn’t have been enough water to cover all the mountains on the Earth for a global flood. But the world before the flood didn’t have the same mountains. Today’s mountains are full of fossils, which means they were formed during the flood.

Now the Bible says the “fountains of the great deep burst forth.” This event would’ve released water from inside the Earth. And there’s actually evidence there’s more water under the earth than in our oceans!

There was more than enough water to cover the world before Noah’s flood, as Genesis says. The problem is certainly not with the amount of water. The problem is a rejection of God’s Word and what it clearly tells us about earth’s history.
