inOur Father, we ask Thy blessing upon us as we partake of this bountiful provision, for which we give Thee thanks. Make us faithful workers for Thee and forgive all our transgressions. We ask it in the name of our Redeemer. Amen

Did you know that when it rains, 30% of the water flows into the oceans? As the water runs to the oceans, it brings along mineral salts which get deposited.
The oceans are getting saltier and saltier everyday because the water washes the salt in, but then evaporation pulls the water out and leaves behind the salts.
Those who study the ocean’s salinity say that the oceans today are 3.6% salt.
The Great Salt Lake in Utah maxes out at about 27% salinity. The Dead Sea contains approximately 31.5% and is the saltiest body of water in the world.
The fact is that 3.6% ocean salinity could easily have occurred within the last 5,000 years.
Therefore, my question is, if the earth is really billions of years old as offered by evolutionism and the Big Bang models, why don’t the oceans have a higher salinity?
I have a theory about that.
I believe that 6,000 years ago God created the heavens and the earth.
4,400 years ago there was a worldwide Flood in the days of Noah.
People always ask, “How did the fresh water fish survive during the Flood?” and “What did Noah and his family drink while they were out in saltwater?”
Well, those questions assume that the Flood was saltwater.
What if the whole world were fresh water at the time of the Flood and it has only been over the last 4,400 years that the oceans have gradually become saltier?
I believe the huge salt domes we see all over the world, such as those under Michigan and in Grand Salene, Texas were not only formed during the Flood but have also been increasing the marine salt percentage worldwide.
Once again, the Biblical account of creation jives more with what we observe than the timelines coming out of secular estimations.
Or who shut in the sea with doors
when it burst out from the womb,
when I made clouds its garment
and thick darkness its swaddling band,
and prescribed limits for it
and set bars and doors,
and said, ‘Thus far shall you come, and no farther,
and here shall your proud waves be stayed’?

Denver, Colorado is home to the Denver National Ice Laboratory. If you visit, you can meet the men who drill holes through ice in Greenland, the South Pole, and all over the world and pull up ice cores. One of the “proofs” that evolutionists give for their worldview timeline of an earth that they believe is 3.4 billion years old, is how many layers are found among the ice cores that are pulled up.
The way ice core dating is typically explained is that ice cores have dark rings and light rings, just like trees rings. They say that in the summer, when it’s warm, the ice melts a little making a clear layer and when it freezes, it creates a clear layer of ice. In the winter, the snow does not melt since it is cold, but instead, snow presses down and you get a compressed layer of snow and it turns into what is called “milky ice” which also has air bubbles trapped in it. So as you look at the core you see clear and milky, clear and milky, etc. Each of these they claim are annual rings (see image and caption above), made from summer and winter in perpetuity. So they say, “we can count back 135,000 annual rings, so the earth has got to be 135,000 years old.”
However, is that necessarily correct?
Something tells me they never heard of the lost squadron.
There were some World War II P-38 Airplanes that crash landed in Greenland when they ran out of fuel in 1942. Years later, a few men aware of the planes, decided to go retrieve them and fly them home. When they finally found them in 1990, they were buried under 263 feet of ice.
That’s right. The lost squadron was covered by 263 feet of ice in only 48 years!
Point of fact, airplanes do not sink in ice, so the planes did not just sink. If you place a penny on an ice cube, it will slowly begin to sink to the middle, but only at room temperature. This would not occur in the freezer.
We can further conclude that they did not sink because airplanes are nose-heavy, and they would have been found nose-down in the ice. However, these airplanes were dead level. They did not sink, ice simply accumulated on top of them.
Now, lets do some math.
263 divided by 48 is about 5 1/2 feet a year.
The deepest hole they ever drilled was approximately 10,000 feet.
10,000 feet divided 5 1/2 is only 1,800 years.
Now, I’ve heard all the objections about the deeper you go, the more the ice gets pressurized and turned into a substance called “glacial firn”, etc.
But even 4,400 years is still very reasonable to account for all the ice at the North and South Poles. It also fits nicely inside the Biblical timeline of an earth that is less than 7,000 years old and a worldwide flood 4,400 years ago.
Therefore, if the earth is billions of years old, why isn’t there more ice at the North and South Poles? Why is there only 10,000 feet?
Bob Cardin, of Middleboro, Kentucky, was one of the men who dug the planes out. When asked, “Bob, when you dug that airplane out, how many layers of ice were there above the airplane?”, He said, “Oh, there were many hundreds of layers of ice above the airplane.”
“Well, Bob, I was told that each of those layers is a different year – summer, winter, summer, winter.”
He said, “That is impossible! Each of those layers is a different warm spell – warm, cold, warm, cold, warm, cold.”
You could get 20 of those in one year. We have it around here, don’t we? It is not summer, winter, summer…
You see, their false assumption throws off all their data.
The ice cores, far from demonstrating that the earth is billions of years old, easily suggests a young earth that is less than 6,000 years old.
