How did the fit on the ark? How did the dinosaurs become extinct? Are we sure that dinosaur bones are not millions of years old? Answers to these questions reveal a worldview that impacts other areas of belief. Scientist Jonathan Sarfati taught me a lot about dinosaurs at a recent conference and I’m sharing a few Dino facts that make sense through the lens of the most accurate history book we will ever have.

Dinosaur Questions Answered - Part 2
Were the dinosaurs on the ark?
According to Genesis 6 two of every kind of animal went aboard the ark
How did the dinosaurs fit on the ark?
The arc was huge.
450 long
75 feet wide
45 feet tall
Imagine 6 semi trucks wide for 1/2 a mile standing at four stories tall
It was a sea worthy vessel and could not capsize
Page 243
Only about 55 kinds
Dinosaurs didn’t have to be fully grown
Most dinosaurs were relatively small
Why aren’t humans buried with dinosaurs if they were alive during the same time?
Evolutionists claim the order of the fossil record (trilobites at the bottom, humans at the top) is due to a succession of life-forms on Earth, which occurred over many hundreds of millions of years
But since Fossils are a record of death, creationists believe that most of these fossils and their subsequent order were formed by the year long global flood
Consider order of death during the flood
With the flood starting with the fountains of the great deep sedentary sea creatures would be buried first, then swimming sea life,
And as flood waters rose, shore river animals and plants
Then small mammals, amphibians, dinosaurs, low land forests
And last, large mammals, birds, and upland forests
How did the dinosaurs become extinct?
Many died in the flood
The rest died out through illness or at the hand of men
