The Flood of the Bible is a great story to tell your kids one day, but are we just telling myths to our children? Well, the flood of the bible is not actually a myth and can be proven within the very earth we walk on.

Fossils are numerous, in fact, found to be in the billions. There are many fossils already found and still many more to be found. These are the storytellers of our earth's history and why Noah came to build the ark. The proof of this biblical flood is found by the way the fossils were discovered. The earth's surface consists of sedimentary rock and creates a mold of any living thing that was in existence many years ago. The formations were etched into the rock and pushed by water flowing rapidly to new places. The pieces of rock and living molds were then redeposited into the place where they were found or exist now. Many people have found fossils everywhere and it has become common. But deep within the rock, there are tree fossils and fish fossils, and many other type of fossils that normally would not exist there. For example, a fish, or oyster fossil can be found high on a mountain top or a tree fossilized sideways in a rock wall. How is this explained?

Sedimentary rock makes up most of the earth's surface. The remaining surface is volcanic igneous and metamorphic rock. The trees that were buried in different angles in the stone, and the oysters on a mountain top tell scientists this is the result of a marine cataclysm. And it is not just in one place or one country. It is found all over the world.

Many of the fossils are fish, marine invertebrates, algae, plants and shellfish. Insects, land vertebrates and dinosaur bones also are found as fossils. If a person goes on a hike or even walks around his back yard he may very likely find a fossil or a sign of a time when a Great Flood or the Flood of the Bible existed on earth.

There is a lot to learn about the earth's surface and the examples of life on the earth during the time of Noah. Even though the Ark itself has not been found as of yet, the fossils tell a pretty compelling story of the Flood of the Bible.
