Many skeptics claim there’s no way there’s enough water to cover the whole earth for a global flood. But the pre-flood world didn’t have the same mountains. Our mountains are full of fossils, which means they were formed during the flood.

And the Bible says much of the water came from inside the earth. And there’s actually evidence there’s still more water under the earth than on it!

Most geologists believe there was a global flood on Mars, and yet, there’s no liquid water there today! And yet, they reject the idea of a global flood on a planet covered with 70% water. The problem isn’t the evidence, it’s they’re rejecting the truth of God’s Word in Genesis.
