What evidence is there of a world-wide flood?

The amount of evidences for the Flood are overwhelming and I would again refer the reader to THE GENESIS FLOOD by Henry Morris as well as THE WORLD THAT PERISHED by John C. Whitcomb. Some of the evidences to consider are as follows:

  • Fossils found of sea life in the tops of all the mountains of the world which not only indicates water from the oceans reaching that level, but also the catastrophic death of billions of animals at one time.
  • The discovery of jungles and millions of African mammoths in Siberia and Alaska. Encyclopedia Britannica, 1956, XII, page 834, states, “The Siberian deposits have been worked now for nearly two centuries. The store appears to be as inexhaustible as a coal field. Some think that a day may come when the spread of civilization may cause the utter disappearance of the elephant in Africa, and that it will be to these deposits that we may have to turn as the only source of animal ivory.” An estimated 5,000,000 mammoths whose remains are buried all along the coastline of northern Siberia and Alaska, were frozen and buried not many thousands of years ago.
