Not long ago, over a dozen from our church (and some friends) went to the Ark Encounter. Upon arrival to the parking lot my GPS said we still had 1.1 miles to go. Indeed, you could see the Ark replica a mile away. A bus takes you back to it.
I’m funny in that I can get a little queasy on the second-floor roof of my house cleaning out the gutters, but in the canyons out west I have no fear. The last time we were in Colorado I videoed the Mesa Verde, but you cannot fully grasp their size unless you’re there. The same with this life-sized replica! Its size must be experienced. I find the cargo space on this thing is HUGE.
For many years some have seen the Ark as a tiny boat with a giraffe’s head sticking through the top. No wonder so few take it seriously! Unfortunately, it’s not just the “Priests of the Evolution Cult” that mislead people about the Ark. A lot of the misinformation came from some well-meaning Sunday School teachers. HOWEVER, I THINK IT’S TIME FOR THE TRUTH TO BE SEEN.
Noah, the Ark and the flood are not just allegorical stories but historic facts. They were believed to be literal by the Apostle Peter (1 Peter 3:2, 2 Peter 2:5) and more importantly Jesus! (Matt. 24:37, 38 & Luke 17:26, 27) And that alone is good enough for me.
