Creation Geology: The Key To Unraveling Earth History - Patrick Nurre





Description:
If the world is truly billions of years old, we would expect to see this in the geologic record - the rocks, minerals and fossils. Secular geologists tell us emphatically that the earth is billions of years old, having been sculpted by slow and gradual geologic processes, punctuated by brief, local catastrophes. But is this view based on scientific facts or a philosophy framed by biases? Come take a journey with us as we unravel this history and discover just how accurately the Book of Genesis explains the geology of the earth. We will look at 1) how the rocks and minerals fit within a Genesis view, 2) the significance of fossils, and 3) how the global flood explains geologic formations around the world. 

About the Speaker:
Patrick Nurre was trained in the secular view of geology. Over the past 40 years he has been actively involved in the Creation/Evolution issue in the field of geology. He has spoken to hundreds of college students, and is a popular speaker at many conventions and homeschool conferences. In 2005, Patrick created Northwest Treasures to provide opportunities to study geology from a Biblical perspective. In the fall of 2012, he opened the Geology Learning Center, a geology museum/educational center located in Mountlake Terrace, WA. Patrick leads field trips each year to many geological sites including his annual field trip to Yellowstone Park in August.

In the Shadows of Mt. St. Helens - Dr. Brad Harrub




http://www.focuspress.org For many individuals, the field of geology remains a hurdle in harmonizing a young earth with the scientific data. The formation of multiple strata layers and deep canyons was previously considered a slow process over long periods of time. The May 18, 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens changed all of that. Rather than basing geology around long-age "assumptions," scientists discovered a living laboratory that provided some startling information. We invite you to enter the blast zone with Dr. Brad Harrub and his son Will as they discover the Truth regarding these geological processes and the age of the earth.

Website: http://www.focuspress.org

Join Dr. Brad Harrub and Will Harrub on location in the blast zone of Mount St. Helens as they journey together to discover the age of the earth.

Brad Harrub holds an earned B.S. degree in biology from Kentucky Wesleyan College, and an earned doctorate degree in anatomy and neurobiology from the College of Medicine at the University of Tennessee in Memphis. He is a professional apologist and traveles the world presenting seminars on Christian Evidences.

The Worldwide Flood - Geologic Evidences - Dr. Andrew Snelling on Origins

Part 1

Geologist Andrew Snelling, Ph.D. gives compelling geologic evidence for the worldwide flood that the Bible historically records.

Part 2

Andrew A. Snelling, BSc (Hons), PhD

 

Director of Research, AiG-US

Biography

 

Andrew A. Snelling is a geologist, research scientist, and technical editor. He completed a Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Geology at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia, graduating with First Class Honors in 1975. His Doctor of Philosophy (in geology) was awarded by The University of Sydney, Australia in 1982 for his research thesis entitled “A geochemical study of the Koongarra uranium deposit, Northern Territory, Australia.” Between studies and since Andrew worked for six years in the exploration and mining industries in Tasmania, New South Wales, Victoria, Western Australia and the Northern Territory variously as a field, mine and research geologist.

Andrew commenced in full-time creation ministry at the end of 1983, first working with the Creation Science Foundation of Australia until late 1998, including three years with Ken Ham before Ham moved to the USA. From 1983 to 1992 Snelling was still required to be a geological consultant to the Koongarra uranium project. He was involved in research projects with several CSIRO (Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Organization) scientists, and in major international collaborative research effort with ANSTO (Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organization) and university scientists across Australia, and with scientists from the USA, Britain, Japan, Sweden and the International Atomic Energy Agency, to investigate the Koongarra uranium deposit as a natural analog of a nuclear waste disposal site. As a result of these research endeavors, Andrew was involved in writing numerous scientific reports, and scientific papers that were published in international science journals.

In late 1998 Andrew joined the Institute for Creation Research near San Diego, as a Professor of Geology. His responsibilities included teaching Master’s degree geology courses in ICR’s Graduate School, leading tours to the Grand Canyon, England, Yosemite, and Death Valley; and research and writing projects. Andrew was a principal investigator in the eight-year, ICR-led RATE (Radioisotopes and the Age of The Earth) research project to which he made major contributions in rock dating studies using radioisotopes, and in studies of radiation halos (radiohalos) and tracks (fission tracks) in various minerals. He contributed two chapters to the first RATE technical volume in 2000, and three chapters to the second RATE technical volume in 2005, as well as being the primary production editor of both volumes. Andrew’s time at ICR was also spent writing a major two-volume book on Earth’s Catastrophic Past: Geology, Creation, and the Flood (Dallas, TX: Institute for Creation Research, 2009).

In June 2007 Andrew’s employment began with Answers in Genesis as their Director of Research. He initially resided in Brisbane, Australia and commuted regularly as necessary to the USA. But in mid-2011 he moved with his wife to live in northern Kentucky (near Cincinnati, Ohio). As a result of joint research, he has contributed to and jointly edited (with Dr. Steven W. Boyd) the book Grappling with the Chronology of the Genesis Flood (Green Forest, AR: Master Books, 2013).

Andrew’s talents have enabled him to be involved in extensive creationist research in Australia, the USA, Britain, New Zealand and elsewhere, majoring on the radioactive methods for dating rocks and evidence for the Flood of Noah. Such research has included the formation of igneous and metamorphic rocks (for example, granites and schists, respectively), all types of mineral deposits, sedimentary strata, and landscape features (for example, Grand Canyon, USA, and Ayers Rock or Uluru, central Australia) within the biblical framework of earth history. Technical papers by Dr. Snelling on regional metamorphism and rock dating have won the prestigious “Technical Excellence Award” as best technical paper at the 1994 Third and 1998 Fourth International Conference on Creationism respectively. As well as writing regularly and extensively in many international creationist magazines, journals and publications, Andrew was founding editor in 1984 and served as editor for almost 15 years of the Creation Ex Nihilo Technical Journal (now Journal of Creation), and served as the Editor-in-Chief for the Sixth International Conference on Creationism.

Andrew has traveled around Australia, the USA, and widely overseas (Britain, New Zealand, South Africa, Korea, Indonesia, Hong Kong, China) speaking in schools, churches, colleges, public and university meetings, to both lay and technical audiences, on the overwhelming scientific evidence consistent with the biblical account of Creation and the Genesis Flood, based largely on his own research. Andrew’s research has demonstrated that a global flood about 4,300 years ago explains many rock layers and most fossil deposits found around the world. Building from that foundation, Dr. Snelling has made predictions as to what should be found if a catastrophic global flood actually happened (for example, the existence of extensive, fossil-bearing rock layers). Additionally, Andrew’s research has indicated that radioactive decay rates have not been consistent in the past, having been grossly accelerated, so the radioactive methods for dating rocks at millions and billions of years old are not reliable, and the rock evidence overall is consistent with a young earth. He is currently researching the radioisotope dating of meteorites.

Andrew was raised in a Christian family in Sydney, Australia, is married to wife Kym, and has three adult children and three grandchildren. Andrew’s interest in geology began very soon after his conversion to Christianity at nine years of age. His very firm conviction in the authority and veracity of the Scriptures brought him to the creation/evolution controversy early in his teens, so that by the commencement of university studies, Andrew already had a clear scriptural perspective on the literalness of Creation and Noah’s Flood, and an unmistakable call from the Lord for a life-long involvement in creationist ministry.

The Red Record (post flood ice age) - Bruce Malone



redrecord dvd case cover (1) copyThe Delaware Indians have a detailed record of their ancestry extending back to the origin of humanity. An original document was given to a medical doctor in the earlier 1800′s, translated by a linguist genious over a twenty year period before the civil war, and essentially lost for the next hundred years, resurfacing in the last few decades. This document reveals an astounding confirmation of the Biblical account of early earth history -- including creation, the entrance of death, and the worldwide flood.

The lecture includes intriguing references to the post flood ice age, and other details of earth history while recounting the discovery, the translation, and the preservation of this remarkable, yet little known, Native American document. The Red Record also provides a fascinating confirmation of the Biblical model for ice age mysteries -- such as why mankind traveled into North America and how millions of woolly mammoths became "quick frozen" in the Siberian and Canadian tundras.

About the Speaker:

Bruce Malone gave his life to Christ over 20 years ago, as the Lord miraculously preserved him through a close call with death. Since that time Bruce has looked for a deeper purpose in life and realized that rejection of Biblical truth, justified by belief in evolution, is the acid which is eating away at the moral foundation of our culture.

Bruce spent 27 years working as a research leader for the Dow Chemical Corporation, has a degree chemical engineering, and is responsible for key innovations which have resulted in 18 patents. But his passion is sharing the relevance and evidence for creation, so he retired early to become full time Director of Search for the Truth Ministries (http://www.searchforthetruth.net/). Bruce has spoken extensively at Colleges and Charities in 12 countries. Since 2008 Bruce has spoken over 300 times to more than 20,000 people and over 30,000 books have been distributed to students and prisoners.

Bruce brings science alive through stories and demonstrations, showing that Biblical creation is the most rational explanation for the world around us. The purpose of both his books and lectures is to help the non-scientific layman understand the importance of creation while motivating and equipping them to share these truths.

Bruce resides in Midland, MI with his wife Robin, and they have four children who are all actively serving the Lord. Click here to contact Bruce to arrange a speaking engagement at your church or organization.

Let the Rocks Speak - Philip Bell (updated)



Let the Rocks Speak

Philip Bell

Philip Bell looks at the evidence for the Flood from fossils and many features in the rocks that speak of a global catastrophe.
I realized the last 13 minutes of the video got cut off, so the rest is now below:







Philip Bell B.Sc. (Hons.), PGCE, CBiol MSB

Creationist Zoologist, ex-Cancer Researcher and Teacher,
CEO, Creation Ministries International (UK/Europe)

Biography

Philip has a passion to demolish secular and anti-God philosophies through sound biblical exposition and Christian apologetics—drawing from his experience in science, research, education and Christian ministry.
He trusted in Christ as a child and was raised in a strong Christian home to believe the Bible was the inerrant Word of God. However, during his late teens, he compromised with secular, evolutionary ideas about origins. During the course of his later, graduate studies he rejected evolution/millions of years on both scientific and biblical grounds. He came again to see that the Bible is God’s completely trustworthy, infallible Word on scientific and historical matters—as well as on vital matters of Christian faith and conduct.

Education and Professional background:

Philip studied biology and geology at the University of Wales (Swansea) and obtained a BSc (Hons) degree in zoology. Then he spent nine years in cancer research and became an active member of the Postgraduate School of Medicine at Bath University, England. Following this, he obtained a postgraduate teaching qualification (PGCE) from Exeter University and taught school science (and some religious studies) to 11–18 year olds. He continued to publish occasional cancer research papers (in secular medical journals) until 2004 and is a contributor to Creation magazine, Journal of Creation, CMI’s website and other periodicals.

Christian ministry activities:

Since 2001, Philip has traveled throughout the UK, Europe and beyond, teaching and lecturing on Bible/science topics in churches, schools and universities. Up until June 2006, Philip worked for Answers in Genesis in the UK as a speaker/writer and later as Deputy Chief Executive. Currently, he heads up the UK/Europe branch of Creation Ministries International (see creation.com). Philip is married with five children—three grown up and two home-schooled—and is a strong advocate of Christian education.

Education

  • B.Sc. (Hons.) in Zoology, 1989, University of Wales (Swansea). Subsidiaries in geology and botany.
  • P.G.C.E, University of Exeter. Postgraduate Certificate of Education (= Diploma in Education), 1999. Subsidiary course: TEFL (Teaching English as a foreign language).

Awards/Associations

  • C. Biol. M.S.B. Elected member of Institute of Biology and awarded Chartered Biologist status, 1995 (reformed as Society of Biology in October 2009).
  • Member of the School of Postgraduate Medicine, University of Bath, 1995–1998.

Employment Experience

January 2007–present – CEO, Creation Ministries International (UK/Europe).
October 2006–October 2007 – Part-time church worker; regular pastoral and preaching duties in his local church.
2001–2006 – Speaker and writer, later Deputy Chief Executive for Answers in Genesis UK/Europe, Leicester, UK.
1999–2001 – Full time teacher of science (principally biology) in state secondary schools.
1998–1999 – Teacher training
1989–1998 – Clinical scientist involved in cancer, leukaemia and lymphoma research; details below:
Philip gained extensive experience in cell culture techniques, new drug screening, routine light microscopy of all cancers, lymphomas and leukaemias, investigating cytotoxic drug resistance and cellular apoptosis. Some highlights:
1990–1994—A strong work focus was the research and development of new assay techniques. With a colleague, co-developed a novel in vitro technology to aid in micro-cell culture and cytology (OCTOSPOT; now patented and commercially produced), which was funded by two £100,000 S.M.A.R.T. Awards (1992, 1993) from the UK’s Department of Trade and Industry, (see technical abstracts/conference proceedings 7 & 8 below).
1994–1996—primarily involved in research into chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and clinical drug resistance, involving the writing of papers (see technical secular papers 1–4, below). The significance of this work is shown by the fact that papers 1 and 2 are the major support for one arm of the UK MRC (Medical Research Council) 4th National trial of the treatment of CLL (Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia; sponsored by Leukaemia Research Fund)—see references 8 and 9 on page 28 of the protocol: <www.icr.ac.uk/research/research_sections/haemato_oncology/4459.pdf.>
1996–1998—Single-handedly designed and conducted a project on drug-resistance in non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma; this was work towards a PhD (done while working full-time) but finished prematurely when funding was curtailed. Philip subsequently left research and retrained as a school teacher. Nevertheless, the first year’s work towards his PhD led him to author two papers (see tech. secular papers 5 and 6), one of which has become the definitive paper on a particular monoclonal antibody to the B-cell receptor CD79a, for distinguishing blood cells of an aggressive, poor-prognosis lymphoma from the very similar cells of the much more indolent chronic lymphocytic leukaemia—widely cited by all immunobiological suppliers of this antibody worldwide, e.g. http://www.acris-antibodies.com/SM1161F.htm, http://www.millipore.com/catalogue/item/cbl538, http://www.antibodies-online.com/antibody/118795/CD79a FITC Human/, http://www.serotec.co.uk/catalog/datasheet-MCA1298.html, http://www.antikoerper-online.de/antibody/118795/CD79a FITC Human/,
This paper is also referenced in the 7th edition (2005) of the standard text Williams Hematology, Chapter 92: Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and related diseases. It appears as reference no. 297 here (on p. 1373 of the book):
http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=xk3bkH-84lIC&pg=RA3-PA1373&lpg=RA3-PA1373&dq=bell zl7.4&source=web&ots=6FpJaNK3L1&sig=3Uwl0R0iR4HOTglSRW3vhe2xAzw&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=3&ct=result
Postscript: Philip’s long-standing interest in the uses of co-culturing a cancer patient’s normal and malignant cells in order to establish an ex vivo therapeutic index (see tech. abstracts 4 and 9), led to him co-authoring two major papers on this subject in 2002 and 2004 (see tech. secular papers 7 and 8 below), while working full-time as a creationist speaker and writer.

Rapid Canyon Formation - Carl Froede | Creation Superconference 2012







Carl Froede talks about how a little Grand Canyon in Georgia formed in just a few years. Catastrophic processes likely formed most of the geologic formations we see, such as the Grand Canyon and the mountains, etc over a short period of time, not millions of billions of years like the evolutionists NEED.

Behemoths Buried Alive - Michael Oard - Creation SuperConference 2012




Billions of dinosaur trackways, burial nests and fossils provide evidence that many dinosaurs were very quickly buried in the worldwide flood of Noah's day.


Michael Oard

Michael Oard became interested in creationism after reading Whitcomb and Morris’s The Genesis Flood in the early 1970s. Having a focus on research, his interest grew to the point that he asked himself what he could contribute. That is when the idea of an Ice Age model started. The first paper on the Ice Age was published in 1979 in the Creation Research Society Quarterly. Since then dozens of articles and about six books have been published on the Ice Age. Research on the Ice Age ignited an interest in glaciology, geology and geophysics, which he has been ardently studying for over 35 years.

Michael has a B.S. and M.S. degree in atmospheric science from the University of Washington. He was a research meteorologist for 6 years at the University of Washington. In 2001, he retired as a lead forecaster with the National Weather Service in Great Falls, Montana. Since then he has been doing full time research in creationist earth science. Over the years, he has learned to speak to lay adults and children on a variety of subjects in the earth sciences.

Image Michael has published eight papers or technical monographs in the secular technical literature of the American Meteorological Association and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association. Since becoming a creationist, he has published about 200 articles in the creationist technical literature and has authored, coauthored, or been editor of fourteen published creationist books for different ages on the Flood, the Ice Age, weather, geology, and National park guides. He is on the board of the Creation Research Society.

Michael has been married to Beverly for over 40 years, and they have four grown children with 10 grandchildren. All but the youngest son live close by in Bozeman, Montana.

The Present Still Cannot be the Key to the Past - Complete Creation, 2nd Edition, Part 5 with Ian Juby



Part 5: The present still cannot be the key to the past
Continuing on with the present theme, Ian gives an overview to even more evidence that demands extremely energetic processes in the past, leading to his claim that only the bible can be the key to the past.  More evidence of Noah's flood, and some of Ian's first hand research around North America.

The Present Cannot be the Key to the Past - Complete Creation, 2nd Ed., Part 4 with Ian Juby



Part 4: The present cannot be the key to the past
In this segment, Ian disqualifies Lyell's mantra that "The present is the key to the past" by pointing to numerous pieces of evidence that demand geologic processes far more energetic than anything we have seen in modern times; and thus, the present can not be the key to the past.  Find out why this matters, and how this relates to the age of the earth.

Evidence for the Global Flood of Noah - Ian Juby | Complete Creation, 2nd Ed., Part 3



Part 3: Evidence for the Global Flood of Noah
Taking off from the previous lectures, Ian expounds on the overwhelming evidence for a past global flood, and how it relates to the "greatest weapon" ever fashioned against the bible.  Almost all of the old-earth arguments disintegrate if there has been a global flood.

Catastrophic Plate Tectonics, A Global Flood Model For Earth History - Dr. Steven Austin



Catastrophic Plate Tectonics
A Global Flood Model For Earth History


by Steven Austin Ph.D.
Seattle Creation Conference, October 2009



Description:Catastrophic Plate Tectonics: A Global Flood Model For Earth History
How did the catastrophic sedimentary and tectonic processes associated with the global flood form the world we see? Catastrophic plate tectonics was the theory devised by creationists 150 years ago to explain the geology of continents and ocean basins. Lately, creationists have modeled the ocean-floor upheaval that initiated the flood, subducted the pre-flood ocean floor, and propelled the oceans over the continents. Subduction of the pre-flood ocean floor moved continents into their present positions, and enlarged and deepened ocean basins. Major mountain ranges are the product of plate collisions. Left over heat and global cooling following the flood created the rapid post-flood ice age and Earth’s modern climate.
This video file is a 60 minute seminar by Steven Austin that was recorded during the Seattle Creation Conference, October 2009.



About the Speaker:
Dr. Steven A. Austin is a field research geologist with a Ph.D. from Penn State University in sedimentary geology. He is “Senior Research Scientist” with Institute for Creation Research in Dallas, Texas. He has performed geologic research on six of the seven continents of the world. His research adventures have taken him by helicopter into the crater of Mount St. Helens volcano, by bush plane onto glaciers in the high mountains of Alaska, by raft through the entire Grand Canyon, on horseback into the high Sierra, by elevator into the world’s deepest coal mines, by SCUBA onto the Great Barrier Reef of Australia, by rail into the backcountry of Korea, by foot onto barren plateaus of southern Argentina, and by four-wheel drive into remote desert areas of Israel, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. He is the author of three books, three videos, one computer software package, and more than thirty technical geology papers.
Dr. Austin’s field research within Grand Canyon includes over 400 nights camped out below the Canyon’s rim. He has launched 22 raft trips within Grand Canyon. He has explored very remote areas of Grand Canyon by mule, helicopter and ATV. His book “Grand Canyon: Monument to Catastrophe” and his DVD “Grand Canyon: Monument to the Flood” summarize his investigations. He has over ten technical papers on Grand Canyon. Subjects of his technical publications on Grand Canyon include lava dams, breached dams, fossils, limestones, sandstones, basalts, diabase sills and radioisotope dating. He is widely known for his discovery of the regionally extensive mass-kill and burial bed within the Redwall Limestone about 2000 feet below the Canyon’s rim.

Universe by Design - (3/3) - Mars & Venus: Speaking of Creation | Dr. Danny Faulkner | 2011 Creation Super Conference



Universe by Design – Part 3 Mars and Venus: Speaking of Creation

Our exploration of the two nearest planets to us have revealed very complex and diverse worlds. What we've learned bears strong evidence of design when compared to the earth, but these planets also give evidence of past catastrophic processes that appear similar to what might have happened during the Flood of Noah here on earth.

A Thousand Years In A Day - Dr. G. Thomas Sharp


A Thousand Years in a Day: The Mt. St. Helens Catastrophe By Dr. G. Thomas Sharp of the Creation Truth Foundation

"Did you know that God can and has used natural processes in a supernatural way to impact the surface of the earth with thousands of years of change in only ONE day? What do you suppose happened when “all of the fountains of the great deep opened” at the beginning of the Flood of Noah? When you look at the canyons, mountains, rock layers and fossils of the earth, how do you explain them? The Bible has sound, reasonable explanations for these marvelous observations. Did you know that in 1980 an eleven-year process was begun at Mt. St. Helens that epitomized on a small scale the action and results of the Great Genesis Flood…that it was proven that God could take a catastrophe and do the geological work of thousands, even millions, of years in ONE day? In this program, G. Dr. Sharp will be your guide through the seconds, minutes and days the eye-opening action of catastrophic earth slides, tidal-like waves, mud flows and other residual effects of the history-making Mt. St. Helens Catastrophe. You will see, with your own eyes, the ability of catastrophic action do the work of thousands of years…IN JUST ONE DAY!"
