Genesis Lecture 57 (Dinosaur 5) Eng.
Bible passage: Genesis 2:15
"Then the LORD God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate it and keep it."
This is the 57th Lecture on Genesis.
In the last lecture, I explained how God caused the extinction of the dinosaurs. God rained fire down from the 2nd heaven and destroyed dinosaurs all at once. Since the method and materials for the creation of the dinosaurs were of the 2nd heaven, they could be destroyed only by the fire of the 2nd heaven. The fossils of dinosaurs offer proof that they suddenly became extinct as the result of disastrous fire. The number of dinosaur fossils is much bigger than the fossils of other animals, and many dinosaur eggs and their footprints have also been discovered. In addition, the geologic stratum that exists from the period of time when dinosaurs became extinct contains a unique element called Iridium.
It is the evidence that the stratum of those days changed due to the fire from the 2nd heaven. God rained fired on the entire globe, but He selectively destroyed only dinosaurs, and spared other plants and animals. This could have been possible only by the power and divinity of God the Father. Now, how long was the period of time when dinosaurs actually did live on the earth? Scientists of the world claim that dinosaurs lived during the Mesozoic Age of the earth. The Mesozoic Age is from about 250 million years ago to about 65 million years ago. So, it is a period of 185 million years, and they claim that dinosaurs lived for 160 million years in this period of time. But, God the Father said that it was only for a very short period that dinosaurs lived on the earth. It was just 40 days. Some of you may be surprised because it is so short.
However, all the studies so far mapped concerning dinosaur fossil distribution and concerning their ecology prove that they lived on the earth for a very short period of time. If you take a look at the world-wide map of dinosaurs' fossil distribution, you can see the fossils are spread throughout the whole world, but they are concentrated in specific locations.
