welcome to creation ministry i’m your

0:00:29.350,0:00:32.770
host dr. Troy Lawrence in life whenever

0:00:32.770,0:00:36.010
we want to negotiate something we’ll

0:00:36.010,0:00:38.680
trying to we’ll ask the person Hey is

0:00:38.680,0:00:40.809
the price written in stone

0:00:40.809,0:00:43.150
where did this come from where is it
[expander_maker more=”Read more” less=”Read less”]
0:00:43.150,0:00:44.830
that when something is written in stone

0:00:44.830,0:00:48.489
it is unchangeable it is concrete it is

0:00:48.489,0:00:49.480
firm

0:00:49.480,0:00:52.989
well it comes from Scripture it comes

0:00:52.989,0:00:54.970
from exodus from the Ten Commandments

0:00:54.970,0:00:59.680
listen to what God set he wrote through

0:00:59.680,0:01:04.210
the pen of Moses in Exodus 20 and by the

0:01:04.210,0:01:07.090
way the purpose of creation ministry is

0:01:07.090,0:01:10.150
to remove stumbling blocks put up by man

0:01:10.150,0:01:12.070
potentially through doctrines of demons

0:01:12.070,0:01:15.640
that get us away from the plain reading

0:01:15.640,0:01:19.330
of the scriptures when mankind has

0:01:19.330,0:01:23.680
posted up stumbling blocks then

0:01:23.680,0:01:25.840
then believers are less likely to get

0:01:25.840,0:01:28.570
into the scriptures less likely to read

0:01:28.570,0:01:31.240
the plain simple Scriptures because we

0:01:31.240,0:01:32.470
think they’re riddled with errors

0:01:32.470,0:01:34.150
specifically at the Genesis creation

0:01:34.150,0:01:36.700
account so the purpose of creation

0:01:36.700,0:01:40.030
ministry is to provide the science

0:01:40.030,0:01:44.560
provide the scriptures that support as

0:01:44.560,0:01:47.440
exactly as God testified in his written

0:01:47.440,0:01:48.400
word

0:01:48.400,0:01:51.250
so listen to what he wrote in Exodus 20

0:01:51.250,0:01:55.090
in verse 8 he says remember the sabbath

0:01:55.090,0:01:57.220
to keep it holy

0:01:57.220,0:01:59.860
six days you shall labor and do all your

0:01:59.860,0:02:04.210
work for in six days the Lord made the

0:02:04.210,0:02:06.970
heavens and the earth the sea in all

0:02:06.970,0:02:08.739
that is in them and rested on the

0:02:08.739,0:02:11.920
seventh day folks that’s dead in the

0:02:11.920,0:02:13.720
middle of the Ten Commandments right

0:02:13.720,0:02:16.120
after that you have you shall not murder

0:02:16.120,0:02:17.950
you shall not commit adultery you shall

0:02:17.950,0:02:21.430
not steal and just before that God said

0:02:21.430,0:02:23.709
you shall have no other graven you shall

0:02:23.709,0:02:26.110
have no other gods before me you shall

0:02:26.110,0:02:28.750
not make for yourself any idol it’s dead

0:02:28.750,0:02:29.890
in the middle of the Ten Commandments

0:02:29.890,0:02:34.720
but for some reason somehow because of

0:02:34.720,0:02:36.420
the tsunami

0:02:36.420,0:02:39.390
of the schemes of mankind the and that

0:02:39.390,0:02:43.470
the temptations of Satan we don’t adhere

0:02:43.470,0:02:46.920
to exactly what’s written here in Exodus

0:02:46.920,0:02:51.239
20:11 we say oh the days in in the

0:02:51.239,0:02:53.520
Genesis creation account no God didn’t

0:02:53.520,0:02:57.600
literally mean days he meant eat eons he

0:02:57.600,0:03:00.660
meant epics and we’re going to interpret

0:03:00.660,0:03:04.200
the Bible according to the lens that the

0:03:04.200,0:03:07.530
paradigm of man has set up so today

0:03:07.530,0:03:09.120
we’re going to work on some of some of

0:03:09.120,0:03:11.970
the dating methods that mankind has set

0:03:11.970,0:03:14.100
up to get us away from the plain and

0:03:14.100,0:03:15.569
simple reading of the Genesis creation

0:03:15.569,0:03:17.640
account by the way it should be noted

0:03:17.640,0:03:23.430
that day in genesis does mean both eons

0:03:23.430,0:03:27.030
epics and it does mean a literal

0:03:27.030,0:03:28.980
rotation of the earth

0:03:28.980,0:03:30.660
so how does one discern the difference

0:03:30.660,0:03:34.769
between the two in the Genesis creation

0:03:34.769,0:03:38.940
account the word day is young in each

0:03:38.940,0:03:41.430
day of the Genesis creation account the

0:03:41.430,0:03:45.030
word Yom is written now if there’s no

0:03:45.030,0:03:48.690
defining term no associated term next to

0:03:48.690,0:03:51.690
the word day next to the word young they

0:03:51.690,0:03:53.790
can mean any length of time

0:03:53.790,0:03:57.870
indeterminate for example in the day of

0:03:57.870,0:04:00.510
the Lord now there’s no defining term to

0:04:00.510,0:04:03.660
link with the word day so therefore it’s

0:04:03.660,0:04:06.180
undetermined the amount of time it’s any

0:04:06.180,0:04:08.880
amount of time but one hundred percent

0:04:08.880,0:04:11.910
of the time in the scriptures when an

0:04:11.910,0:04:15.090
associated term specifically a number is

0:04:15.090,0:04:19.079
linked to the word day it’s always a

0:04:19.079,0:04:20.549
rotation of the earth

0:04:20.549,0:04:24.210
Jesus fasted for 40 days no one says

0:04:24.210,0:04:29.910
that was 40 minutes or 40,000 years and

0:04:29.910,0:04:32.550
in the Genesis creation account there’s

0:04:32.550,0:04:37.200
a number with each day first day second

0:04:37.200,0:04:41.310
day third day and so on each day has an

0:04:41.310,0:04:45.180
associated defining term to force the

0:04:45.180,0:04:47.460
reader to understand that it’s a literal

0:04:47.460,0:04:49.800
rotation of the earth

0:04:49.800,0:04:52.830
and God’s not done God knew we would

0:04:52.830,0:04:56.129
struggle with whether the day meant a

0:04:56.129,0:04:58.440
thousand years whether the day meant

0:04:58.440,0:05:00.810
millions of years billions of years God

0:05:00.810,0:05:03.810
doesn’t increase in knowledge he knew

0:05:03.810,0:05:06.270
the end from the beginning so he knew we

0:05:06.270,0:05:07.229
would struggle at this

0:05:07.229,0:05:11.639
so he put another defining associated

0:05:11.639,0:05:15.659
term to force us to understand the word

0:05:15.659,0:05:18.330
yom in the Genesis creation account do

0:05:18.330,0:05:19.740
you know it is you probably already have

0:05:19.740,0:05:22.770
it its and there was evening and there

0:05:22.770,0:05:26.129
was morning that phrase is mentioned for

0:05:26.129,0:05:28.379
every day in the Genesis creation

0:05:28.379,0:05:32.610
account so you have two defining terms

0:05:32.610,0:05:37.349
associated terms to define the word Yom

0:05:37.349,0:05:40.289
to define the word day and they are the

0:05:40.289,0:05:43.680
number and they are the phrase and there

0:05:43.680,0:05:46.169
was evening and morning that forces the

0:05:46.169,0:05:51.240
definite article the first day the second

0:05:51.240,0:05:56.340
day the third day for each day of the

0:05:56.340,0:05:58.860
Genesis creation account that definite

0:05:58.860,0:06:00.840
articles forced in there because the two

0:06:00.840,0:06:02.789
defining and associated terms and in

0:06:02.789,0:06:04.409
Scripture whenever there’s a number

0:06:04.409,0:06:07.319
linked to the word day one hundred

0:06:07.319,0:06:10.259
percent of the time it is interpreted as

0:06:10.259,0:06:14.759
a literal rotation of the earth and and

0:06:14.759,0:06:17.490
scripture interpret scripture so you go

0:06:17.490,0:06:20.699
to the Ten Commandments who wrote the

0:06:20.699,0:06:23.729
Ten Commandments God wrote the Ten

0:06:23.729,0:06:26.069
Commandments through the pen of Moses

0:06:26.069,0:06:30.750
but in in in the Torah but the literal

0:06:30.750,0:06:32.879
Ten Commandments were written in stone

0:06:32.879,0:06:37.620
by the finger of God himself and he

0:06:37.620,0:06:40.770
didn’t do it once so you have in Exodus

0:06:40.770,0:06:47.069
20 verse 11 God directly says you you

0:06:47.069,0:06:48.659
should work six days and rest the

0:06:48.659,0:06:52.289
seventh for in six days there’s the

0:06:52.289,0:06:55.409
defining associated term six in front of

0:06:55.409,0:06:58.110
the Yom linking and enforcing us to

0:06:58.110,0:07:00.810
define Yom as of literal rotation of

0:07:00.810,0:07:01.440
the earth

0:07:01.440,0:07:03.570
for in six days the Lord made the

0:07:03.570,0:07:06.240
heavens and the earth the sea and all

0:07:06.240,0:07:08.880
that is in them and rested the seventh

0:07:08.880,0:07:12.780
day folks remember that the record Moses

0:07:12.780,0:07:16.860
destroyed that ten commandment that

0:07:16.860,0:07:19.530
tablet of stone that God wrote down so

0:07:19.530,0:07:23.070
not once did God verbally tell Moses that

0:07:23.070,0:07:24.840
he created everything in six days and

0:07:24.840,0:07:27.780
rested the seventh not once did God write

0:07:27.780,0:07:31.980
in stone with his own hand that he made

0:07:31.980,0:07:33.930
everything in six days and rested the

0:07:33.930,0:07:36.180
seventh in the middle of the Ten

0:07:36.180,0:07:39.180
Commandments no he did it twice

0:07:39.180,0:07:43.290
turn to your Bible in exodus chapter 31

0:07:43.290,0:07:50.580
go to verse 17 God is laying out the

0:07:50.580,0:07:53.550
same instructions six days you shall

0:07:53.550,0:07:56.670
work and the seventh day you shall rest

0:07:56.670,0:08:00.390
for it is a sign between this is verse

0:08:00.390,0:08:03.960
17 it is a sign between me and the sons

0:08:03.960,0:08:06.870
of Israel forever for in six days the

0:08:06.870,0:08:10.290
Lord made the heaven and the earth but

0:08:10.290,0:08:13.440
on the seventh day he ceased and was

0:08:13.440,0:08:18.810
refreshed folks twice God wrote in stone

0:08:18.810,0:08:22.080
twice he told Moses he created

0:08:22.080,0:08:26.130
everything in six days seven times he

0:08:26.130,0:08:30.210
put a number to define the day in the

0:08:30.210,0:08:33.150
Genesis creation account he also gave us

0:08:33.150,0:08:35.340
the phrase and there was evening and

0:08:35.340,0:08:37.289
there was morning and the Genesis

0:08:37.289,0:08:39.810
creation account that’s why we’re forced

0:08:39.810,0:08:42.900
to put the definite article the second

0:08:42.900,0:08:46.710
day the third day the fourth day and so

0:08:46.710,0:08:47.250
on

0:08:47.250,0:08:50.280
so what is getting us away from the

0:08:50.280,0:08:52.710
Genesis creation account is it the

0:08:52.710,0:08:56.460
schemes and doctrines of demons first

0:08:56.460,0:08:59.850
Timothy 4 says seducing spirits will

0:08:59.850,0:09:02.400
come in the latter days and people will

0:09:02.400,0:09:04.830
fall away from the truth and turn to

0:09:04.830,0:09:07.290
doctrines of demons is that one of it

0:09:07.290,0:09:09.600
the greatest heresy that has ever been

0:09:09.600,0:09:11.820
perpetrated is that the working of Jesus

0:09:11.820,0:09:14.280
Christ on the cross was insufficient and

0:09:14.280,0:09:15.000
we needed to

0:09:15.000,0:09:18.270
do works to obtain salvation

0:09:18.270,0:09:21.570
that’s a doctrine of demon but I contend

0:09:21.570,0:09:24.570
one of the second-greatest is this

0:09:24.570,0:09:28.740
doctrine that says the Genesis creation

0:09:28.740,0:09:32.220
account is not accurate and in 2nd

0:09:32.220,0:09:39.210
Timothy 4 chapter 4 1st 3 we get another

0:09:39.210,0:09:41.400
clue of what’s going to happen in the

0:09:41.400,0:09:45.600
end times Paul wrote for the time will

0:09:45.600,0:09:47.340
come when they will not endure sound

0:09:47.340,0:09:50.520
doctrine but to have their ears tickled

0:09:50.520,0:09:51.780
they will accumulate for themselves

0:09:51.780,0:09:54.000
teachers in accordance to their own

0:09:54.000,0:09:57.180
desires and will turn away their ears

0:09:57.180,0:10:00.060
from the truth and turn aside to myths

0:10:00.060,0:10:02.220
plural myths

0:10:02.220,0:10:05.580
what are the myths one of them i contend

0:10:05.580,0:10:09.570
is the notion of molecules to man that

0:10:09.570,0:10:13.350
life came about through abiogenesis that

0:10:13.350,0:10:15.570
is life came about from nonliving

0:10:15.570,0:10:17.550
material to get to life

0:10:17.550,0:10:19.800
this is opposite of what the Scriptures

0:10:19.800,0:10:23.550
teach so let’s just let’s go through

0:10:23.550,0:10:26.040
some of the science that is getting

0:10:26.040,0:10:28.650
mankind away from the Genesis creation

0:10:28.650,0:10:31.980
account specifically radio isotopic

0:10:31.980,0:10:34.080
dating a couple weeks ago we talked

0:10:34.080,0:10:39.180
about radio active carbon 14 dating and

0:10:39.180,0:10:41.250
the flaws behind that and that is the

0:10:41.250,0:10:43.980
notion that when the creature died

0:10:43.980,0:10:46.260
it died with a full complement of

0:10:46.260,0:10:50.640
carbon-14 and I illustrated that that

0:10:50.640,0:10:52.530
is a leap of faith

0:10:52.530,0:10:54.450
there’s no way to prove that when the

0:10:54.450,0:10:56.339
creature died it died with a full

0:10:56.339,0:10:59.190
complement of carbon-14 and we can show

0:10:59.190,0:11:02.640
that cosmic radiation when it comes in

0:11:02.640,0:11:04.170
contact with nitrogen in the atmosphere

0:11:04.170,0:11:08.400
it converts carbon it converts nitrogen

0:11:08.400,0:11:11.339
to carbon-14 to the tune of 20 pounds

0:11:11.339,0:11:13.650
per year of gas and the atmosphere is

0:11:13.650,0:11:16.140
slightly increasing every year so as you

0:11:16.140,0:11:18.839
go back in time life had less

0:11:18.839,0:11:21.660
radioactive carbon 14 in it

0:11:21.660,0:11:24.660
alright so let’s tackle radio isotoic

0:11:24.660,0:11:26.070
dating

0:11:26.070,0:11:28.370
what is radioisotopic dating

0:11:28.370,0:11:32.720
this dating method seemingly is the most

0:11:32.720,0:11:35.360
accurate dating method there is and and

0:11:35.360,0:11:37.910
how it comes about is there’s elements

0:11:37.910,0:11:39.440
that are radioactive remember the

0:11:39.440,0:11:42.290
Periodic Chart in in school where you

0:11:42.290,0:11:43.970
had all the elements starting with

0:11:43.970,0:11:45.950
hydrogen and then ending with the

0:11:45.950,0:11:49.310
natural element uranium well some of

0:11:49.310,0:11:51.529
those elements are radioactive which

0:11:51.529,0:11:53.270
means they’re unstable in their natural

0:11:53.270,0:11:56.900
form and they want to lose electrons to

0:11:56.900,0:12:00.740
become stable the radioactive elements

0:12:00.740,0:12:03.560
starting with polonium and plutonium and

0:12:03.560,0:12:05.870
radon and thorium and uranium

0:12:05.870,0:12:08.720
they’re unstable they do not like to

0:12:08.720,0:12:13.220
remain in that high electron state they

0:12:13.220,0:12:17.450
want to slowly lose electrons through

0:12:17.450,0:12:19.850
alpha emissions and beta emissions and

0:12:19.850,0:12:21.890
to finally get to stop us the first

0:12:21.890,0:12:24.500
stable element and that would be lead

0:12:24.500,0:12:27.320
so what we’re able to do through ion mass

0:12:27.320,0:12:32.570
spectrometers is see how many lead

0:12:32.570,0:12:35.270
ions have formed as a result of decay

0:12:35.270,0:12:36.860
the decay process from let’s say

0:12:36.860,0:12:39.589
polonium and then we can determine the

0:12:39.589,0:12:42.920
age because we know the rate of polonium

0:12:42.920,0:12:46.850
decay today so by simple arithmetic

0:12:46.850,0:12:51.709
dividing the quantity of lead by ions by

0:12:51.709,0:12:55.459
the quantity of polonium ions x the

0:12:55.459,0:12:57.170
constant rate of decay that we see today

0:12:57.170,0:13:01.310
we get the exact age of the item that

0:13:01.310,0:13:03.110
we’re testing and we come up with

0:13:03.110,0:13:05.779
billions of years to establish the earth

0:13:05.779,0:13:09.350
is 4.6 billion years old so where’s the

0:13:09.350,0:13:13.010
problem here this this notion has duped

0:13:13.010,0:13:15.470
too many people is it that the math is

0:13:15.470,0:13:16.010
wrong

0:13:16.010,0:13:18.650
no the math is not wrong what’s wrong

0:13:18.650,0:13:20.540
with this well there’s two parts to

0:13:20.540,0:13:22.220
what’s wrong with this arithmetic

0:13:22.220,0:13:25.160
formula one is the notion that the

0:13:25.160,0:13:27.080
constant rate of decay that we see today

0:13:27.080,0:13:32.300
has always been constant folks this

0:13:32.300,0:13:33.950
notion is not new the Bible has

0:13:33.950,0:13:37.070
addressed this implicitly this is in

0:13:37.070,0:13:40.010
second Peter the notion that is called

0:13:40.010,0:13:41.600
the uniformitarian theory

0:13:41.600,0:13:43.850
the uniformitarian theory is that the

0:13:43.850,0:13:46.339
decay rates we see today the process of

0:13:46.339,0:13:50.149
soil settling accumulation today is what

0:13:50.149,0:13:53.779
has always been the the processes we see

0:13:53.779,0:13:56.779
today have proceeded at the same

0:13:56.779,0:13:59.420
constant rate forever in the past this

0:13:59.420,0:14:02.810
is not something new the Holy Spirit

0:14:02.810,0:14:06.980
inspired Peter to write and second Peter

0:14:06.980,0:14:08.509
chapter 3

0:14:08.509,0:14:12.259
listen listen to this in verse 3 know

0:14:12.259,0:14:14.509
this first of all that in the last days

0:14:14.509,0:14:16.100
and folks we are in the last days

0:14:16.100,0:14:19.579
correct yes know this first of all that in

0:14:19.579,0:14:22.639
the last days mockers will come with

0:14:22.639,0:14:25.399
their mocking if you want to be mocked

0:14:25.399,0:14:27.589
you go by the plain reading of the

0:14:27.589,0:14:29.329
Genesis creation account there is no

0:14:29.329,0:14:31.970
greater mocking besides saying that you

0:14:31.970,0:14:33.380
accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and

0:14:33.380,0:14:35.810
Savior the second-greatest mocking is to

0:14:35.810,0:14:38.690
say I accept the word of god as it’s

0:14:38.690,0:14:40.639
plainly reading written i do not

0:14:40.639,0:14:42.829
interpret the word of god through the

0:14:42.829,0:14:45.829
lens of atheistic paradigms you want to

0:14:45.829,0:14:46.459
be mocked

0:14:46.459,0:14:48.769
that’s how you get mocked you stand firm

0:14:48.769,0:14:50.600
by the Word of God you’ll be ridiculed

0:14:50.600,0:14:53.600
matter-of-fact atheist Richard Dawkins

0:14:53.600,0:14:57.079
has publicly said we should mock

0:14:57.079,0:14:59.930
creationist for their folly

0:14:59.930,0:15:03.110
so Peter writes know this first of all

0:15:03.110,0:15:05.300
that in the last days mockers will come

0:15:05.300,0:15:07.550
with their mocking following after their

0:15:07.550,0:15:09.680
own lusts and saying where is the

0:15:09.680,0:15:11.990
promise of his coming for since the

0:15:11.990,0:15:13.819
father’s fall asleep here it comes here

0:15:13.819,0:15:17.060
comes all continues just as it was from

0:15:17.060,0:15:20.509
the beginning of creation folks that’s

0:15:20.509,0:15:22.759
the uniformitarian theory that’s the

0:15:22.759,0:15:25.550
theory that radio isotopic dating is

0:15:25.550,0:15:29.060
hanging on that the rate of decay we see

0:15:29.060,0:15:32.209
today is the rate of decay it has always

0:15:32.209,0:15:37.009
been so what’s the problem with the

0:15:37.009,0:15:39.319
taking the leap of faith that the

0:15:39.319,0:15:41.089
constant rate of decay that we see today

0:15:41.089,0:15:44.240
has always been constant there’s two

0:15:44.240,0:15:47.750
problems with that one is we can see

0:15:47.750,0:15:51.500
through observation that thing’s

0:15:51.500,0:15:53.630
actually decay at an accelerated rate

0:15:53.630,0:15:54.680
when there’s trauma

0:15:54.680,0:15:57.560
involved take for example life if we had

0:15:57.560,0:15:59.480
two twins and we separated them at birth

0:15:59.480,0:16:02.899
and we have-we distressed one with its

0:16:02.899,0:16:05.300
environmental conditions such as living

0:16:05.300,0:16:07.610
in a hot zone in the desert and let’s

0:16:07.610,0:16:10.820
say we add some vices living vices so it

0:16:10.820,0:16:12.950
ate poorly it didn’t get enough sleep in it

0:16:12.950,0:16:15.440
it’s that that child struggled with that

0:16:15.440,0:16:17.420
let’s add some more devices such as

0:16:17.420,0:16:20.600
tobacco and alcohol abuse and drug abuse

0:16:20.600,0:16:24.589
we will see that those traumas that we

0:16:24.589,0:16:26.690
induce internally into that creature

0:16:26.690,0:16:28.730
that life that it accelerates the aging

0:16:28.730,0:16:30.410
process you’ll be able to look at the

0:16:30.410,0:16:33.110
exterior of that living being and see

0:16:33.110,0:16:35.570
that age faster but we’re not talking

0:16:35.570,0:16:38.029
about living being we’re talking about

0:16:38.029,0:16:41.690
natural elements in on the molecular

0:16:41.690,0:16:42.320
level

0:16:42.320,0:16:46.459
so let’s use another example let’s let’s

0:16:46.459,0:16:50.060
look at the coal record coal mines are

0:16:50.060,0:16:53.060
arm around the earth coal comes from

0:16:53.060,0:16:56.420
botanical life that was compressed and

0:16:56.420,0:16:58.880
heated and and the theory is that’s

0:16:58.880,0:17:00.890
perpetrated around the world by the

0:17:00.890,0:17:04.130
world is that coal slowly formed 20

0:17:04.130,0:17:05.329
million years ago

0:17:05.329,0:17:08.630
folks we can go into a lab today and

0:17:08.630,0:17:11.780
take a piece of wood and if we seal it

0:17:11.780,0:17:14.480
in a vacuum such as a buried scenario

0:17:14.480,0:17:17.480
and we add trace elements of clay and

0:17:17.480,0:17:19.970
trace elements of water which is what

0:17:19.970,0:17:21.740
we’d expect to find near a buried

0:17:21.740,0:17:25.490
volcano area and add heat a hundred

0:17:25.490,0:17:27.890
fifty degrees celsius in eight months

0:17:27.890,0:17:30.920
will be able to convert that wood to

0:17:30.920,0:17:35.270
coal argonne national laboratory has

0:17:35.270,0:17:38.690
successfully converted coal on converted

0:17:38.690,0:17:41.780
wood to coal in months that is

0:17:41.780,0:17:44.540
indistinguishable from all test applied

0:17:44.540,0:17:47.120
to coal that is allegedly 20 million

0:17:47.120,0:17:50.900
years old in the ground so you see by

0:17:50.900,0:17:54.350
trauma we can accelerate the decay

0:17:54.350,0:17:55.429
process

0:17:55.429,0:17:57.920
let’s use another example to indicate

0:17:57.920,0:17:59.870
that the constant rate of decay that is

0:17:59.870,0:18:02.450
that the radio isotopic dating is

0:18:02.450,0:18:06.290
hedging on is not to be taken as a leap

0:18:06.290,0:18:08.300
of faith that it’s always been constant

0:18:08.300,0:18:10.760
throughout eternity one is petrified

0:18:10.760,0:18:15.500
wood petrified wood is when wood turns

0:18:15.500,0:18:18.620
to stone by the process of adding

0:18:18.620,0:18:23.330
moisture pressure heat and silica then

0:18:23.330,0:18:27.290
what’s allegedly taught is that the the

0:18:27.290,0:18:30.470
wood turn to stone over 500,000

0:18:30.470,0:18:32.720
year-old process so when you go to the

0:18:32.720,0:18:35.750
natural petrified forest and and the

0:18:35.750,0:18:37.820
tour guide is teaching you and

0:18:37.820,0:18:41.300
he or she says this petrified tree a

0:18:41.300,0:18:43.970
occurred 500 thousand years ago well

0:18:43.970,0:18:47.240
then the genealogical written record in

0:18:47.240,0:18:51.770
Genesis five and Genesis 11 it would be

0:18:51.770,0:18:54.950
then an error where when you take the

0:18:54.950,0:18:56.840
geological record written in the Bible

0:18:56.840,0:18:59.000
then you can only come up with the age

0:18:59.000,0:19:02.270
of the earth be in 6,000 to 10,000 the most

0:19:02.270,0:19:04.880
this this battle on truth

0:19:04.880,0:19:07.130
so what is going on with that well mount

0:19:07.130,0:19:09.380
st. Helen in washington the state of

0:19:09.380,0:19:10.910
Washington had a violent volcanic

0:19:10.910,0:19:14.240
eruption 1980 and what did they find

0:19:14.240,0:19:16.940
as a result of this eruption petrified

0:19:16.940,0:19:17.750
wood

0:19:17.750,0:19:22.520
30 30 years three decades as a result of

0:19:22.520,0:19:25.190
the trauma from mount st. helens

0:19:25.190,0:19:28.370
eruption volcanic activity petrified

0:19:28.370,0:19:32.240
trees have occurred in three decades and

0:19:32.240,0:19:35.210
that’s not all uniformitarian as these

0:19:35.210,0:19:36.920
are people who say the rate of decay we

0:19:36.920,0:19:38.660
see today is the rate it’s always been

0:19:38.660,0:19:40.880
for which radioisotopic dating is

0:19:40.880,0:19:44.030
hinged upon they would say petroleum oil

0:19:44.030,0:19:47.150
is another example of an older that

0:19:47.150,0:19:50.270
petroleum oil in the ground is from but

0:19:50.270,0:19:54.290
biomass such as living creatures and

0:19:54.290,0:19:56.960
algae that as a result of being bearing

0:19:56.960,0:20:00.080
through a slow process of soil sediment

0:20:00.080,0:20:03.980
that they decayed over a long period of

0:20:03.980,0:20:06.200
time 50 million years and we finally get

0:20:06.200,0:20:09.410
petroleum oil folks that is simply not

0:20:09.410,0:20:12.920
accurate listen to this we can take

0:20:12.920,0:20:15.170
through the process of distillation

0:20:15.170,0:20:17.810
chicken by-product such as adipose

0:20:17.810,0:20:21.660
ligaments tendons or even Al Jean

0:20:21.660,0:20:25.410
with water and high heat and we get

0:20:25.410,0:20:27.930
through a process called distillation we

0:20:27.930,0:20:32.490
get petroleum oil in 30 minutes

0:20:32.490,0:20:35.310
let that sink in the process is

0:20:35.310,0:20:38.130
accelerated as a result of trauma

0:20:38.130,0:20:40.500
why are they interpreting that petroleum

0:20:40.500,0:20:43.260
oil takes 50 million years the reason is

0:20:43.260,0:20:46.170
the notion of macro-evolution Darwinian

0:20:46.170,0:20:49.500
evolution molecules to man is a slow

0:20:49.500,0:20:54.120
process so it requires the notion of old

0:20:54.120,0:20:56.700
earth billions of years to allow the

0:20:56.700,0:20:59.490
timeframe for evolution molecules demand

0:20:59.490,0:21:00.990
therefore the Bible would be wrong

0:21:00.990,0:21:05.610
because God wrote in Deuteronomy 4:32 the

0:21:05.610,0:21:09.330
day that God created man and the Holy

0:21:09.330,0:21:13.050
Spirit wrote through the pin of of in

0:21:13.050,0:21:17.790
acts 17 verse 26 god made through from

0:21:17.790,0:21:20.400
one man all the nations to dwell on the

0:21:20.400,0:21:23.550
earth so these are two polemic views

0:21:23.550,0:21:26.460
two polarizing views on the opposite

0:21:26.460,0:21:30.630
ends of the spectrum it’s either man’s

0:21:30.630,0:21:33.510
philosophy molecules to man or it’s

0:21:33.510,0:21:37.770
God’s written testimony that he wrote in

0:21:37.770,0:21:40.470
stone with his own hand but he made

0:21:40.470,0:21:42.720
everything in six days and rested the

0:21:42.720,0:21:43.620
seventh day

0:21:43.620,0:21:46.410
ok so we’ve looked at we can accelerate

0:21:46.410,0:21:48.420
life through trauma we can accelerate

0:21:48.420,0:21:51.660
converting wood to coal through trauma

0:21:51.660,0:21:54.870
we can accelerate the conversion of

0:21:54.870,0:21:58.770
biomass to petroleum by trauma whether

0:21:58.770,0:22:00.570
we are discussing radioactive decay

0:22:00.570,0:22:03.210
rates cellular decay rates

0:22:03.210,0:22:05.130
molecular decay rates and so forth

0:22:05.130,0:22:07.500
trauma accelerates the decay process

0:22:07.500,0:22:11.670
trauma whether mechanical chemical or

0:22:11.670,0:22:14.670
radioactive energy accelerates the rate

0:22:14.670,0:22:18.150
of entropy folks regarding the

0:22:18.150,0:22:21.570
radioisotopic dating it is hinged

0:22:21.570,0:22:25.470
and directly hint holding exclusively on

0:22:25.470,0:22:27.600
that the rate of decay of these

0:22:27.600,0:22:31.440
radioactive elements are hinged upon

0:22:31.440,0:22:34.350
that the rate of decay has been constant

0:22:34.350,0:22:36.450
a German lab and I can’t even pronounce

0:22:36.450,0:22:41.880
this word but they have a 15-year study

0:22:41.880,0:22:44.280
of the decay rate of radioactive

0:22:44.280,0:22:47.039
elements and this is evidence for solar

0:22:47.039,0:22:49.710
rotation modulation published online in

0:22:49.710,0:22:55.710
November 2010 by ptb German lab they

0:22:55.710,0:22:57.840
have found that the rate of decay from

0:22:57.840,0:23:02.010
of uranium has seasonal and monthly

0:23:02.010,0:23:03.720
fluctuations

0:23:03.720,0:23:05.610
what is it linked to they don’t know why

0:23:05.610,0:23:09.510
yet but they link it to solar flares on

0:23:09.510,0:23:11.429
a one-to-one ratio they’re not sure this

0:23:11.429,0:23:14.280
is just a burgeoning study but they have

0:23:14.280,0:23:17.250
found that the rate of decay is not even

0:23:17.250,0:23:20.460
constant in our own viewing folks you

0:23:20.460,0:23:22.590
have to understand that the length of

0:23:22.590,0:23:24.630
time that we have been observing the

0:23:24.630,0:23:27.240
rate of decay of radioactive elements

0:23:27.240,0:23:30.030
such as uranium and polonium is on such

0:23:30.030,0:23:33.900
a brief scale maybe 50 to 75 years so to

0:23:33.900,0:23:36.600
take the leap of faith that the rate of

0:23:36.600,0:23:40.650
decay has been constant forever to then

0:23:40.650,0:23:42.750
undermined the written word and

0:23:42.750,0:23:46.020
testimony of God and what he saw and

0:23:46.020,0:23:49.679
what he did is just folly

0:23:49.679,0:23:53.820
why take a leap of faith in what is

0:23:53.820,0:23:56.130
flawed that we see the rate of the case

0:23:56.130,0:23:57.929
or not even constant today

0:23:57.929,0:24:02.460
ok there’s more trauma to talk about so

0:24:02.460,0:24:05.070
not only do we have small energy such as

0:24:05.070,0:24:08.370
solar flare that has that results in

0:24:08.370,0:24:10.890
seasonal fluctuation seasonal nearly

0:24:10.890,0:24:12.690
fluctuations in the rate of decay of

0:24:12.690,0:24:15.990
uranium but there are two huge events

0:24:15.990,0:24:20.429
that would cause massive trauma one the

0:24:20.429,0:24:23.610
greatest traumatic event event in the in

0:24:23.610,0:24:25.919
the entire history of the universe the

0:24:25.919,0:24:30.929
creation of all energy that was the most

0:24:30.929,0:24:33.419
violent event in the history of the

0:24:33.419,0:24:36.059
universe the second most violent event

0:24:36.059,0:24:37.919
in the history of the universe was on

0:24:37.919,0:24:40.260
the second day of creation the great

0:24:40.260,0:24:44.040
expansion we call this the big bang that

0:24:44.040,0:24:47.860
expansion was so violent it accelerated

0:24:47.860,0:24:50.799
the rates of decay there’s more to this

0:24:50.799,0:24:53.440
and we’ll discuss next time but dr.

0:24:53.440,0:24:56.679
Robert Gentry has found in the granite

0:24:56.679,0:25:02.080
rock halos and these halos are when

0:25:02.080,0:25:05.140
radioactive elements leave a remnant of

0:25:05.140,0:25:07.720
vestigial of themselves when they decay

0:25:07.720,0:25:12.400
in the granite rock these halos show

0:25:12.400,0:25:15.070
spherical results there they look like

0:25:15.070,0:25:17.890
if you put alka seltzer and water the

0:25:17.890,0:25:19.990
bubbling of fat and they’re fleeting

0:25:19.990,0:25:23.260
they last only seconds so when you find

0:25:23.260,0:25:26.890
halos in the granite the bedrock of the

0:25:26.890,0:25:30.280
crust as dr. robert gentry a physicist

0:25:30.280,0:25:32.440
has found then we can understand that

0:25:32.440,0:25:37.090
that the uranium didn’t slowly decay to

0:25:37.090,0:25:40.030
polonium because he found these halos as

0:25:40.030,0:25:42.280
polonium itself with no heavier element

0:25:42.280,0:25:44.799
note that it descended ok we’re running

0:25:44.799,0:25:46.720
out of time we got to cut it short

0:25:46.720,0:25:48.669
unfortunately there’s so much to discuss

0:25:48.669,0:25:50.980
about you have any questions go to my

0:25:50.980,0:25:53.980
website creation ministry .org

0:25:53.980,0:25:55.750
contact me you can purchase my book

0:25:55.750,0:25:58.480
origins, the origins of matter, space, time,

0:25:58.480,0:26:00.669
and life and in here you’ll get the

0:26:00.669,0:26:02.679
details of the science that supports the

0:26:02.679,0:26:04.660
Genesis creation account and global

0:26:04.660,0:26:38.350
